Development of a Vaginal Extracellular Matrix Hydrogel for Combating Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, a vaginal specific ECM hydrogel (vECM) is developed, optimized for intravaginal topical administration, and evaluated for mitigatation of vaginal atrophy associated with menopause. When applied in a rat model of menopause, vECM improves vaginal epithelial thickness and stem cell phenotype, and despite topical application, vECM also ...
