ABSTRACT
Patients with erectile dysfunction (ED) often lose self-esteem, leading to severe psychological impairment. Although many forms of ED can be corrected with currently available therapeutic measures, several types of ED and its associated conditions may not be readily treated. Recently, the concept of cell transplantation has been applied to address ED with the goal of restoring normal anatomical tissue configuration and erectile function. This article provides an overview of the fundamental principles of these cell-based approaches and presents a framework that can be used to interpret current and future studies as well as to encourage further research into cell-based therapies.
