Abstract

Neuroinflammation in the spinal dorsal horn (SDH) region plays an important role in the pathogenesis of interstitial cystitis (IC)/bladder pain syndrome (BPS). Oxidative stress is an important etiological factor for inflammatory diseases. This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells UMSCs on neuroinflammation and oxidative stress in IC and the underlying mechanisms.
