Growth plate cartilage is responsible for bone growth in children. Injury to growth plate can often lead to faulty bony repair and bone growth deformities, which represents a significant clinical problem. This work aims to develop a biological treatment. Recent studies using rabbit models to investigate the efficacy of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) to promote cartilage regeneration and prevent bone defects following growth plate injury have shown promise. However, translational studies in large animal models (such as lambs), which more closely resemble the human condition, are lacking.Introduction and aims
