Different cell types can be isolated from human placental tissues, and some have been
reported to retain phenotypic plasticity and characteristics that make them a promising …

Cells derived from the amniotic membrane of human placenta have been receiving
particular attention because of their stem cell potentiality and immunomodulatory properties …

One of the main goals of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine is to develop skin
substitutes for treating deep dermal and full thickness wounds. In this regard, both scaffold …

Emerging evidence suggests human amnion tissue as a valuable source of two distinct
types of pluripotent cells, amnion epithelial cells (hAECs) and mesenchymal stromal cells …

Although dialysis and transplantation are widely applied therapies for renal failure,
drawbacks such as morbidity, shortage of compatible organs and high cost are limiting …

Abstract Purpose of Review During the last decades, the field of regenerative medicine has
been rapidly evolving. Major progress has been made in the development of biological …

Human amniotic fluid cells are immune‐privileged with low immunogenicity and anti‐
inflammatory properties. They are able to self‐renew, are highly proliferative, and have a …

Amniotic fluid (AF) has become an interesting source of fetal stem cells. However, AF
contains heterogeneous and multiple, partially differentiated cell types. After isolation from …

The human amniotic membrane (hAM) is a collagen-based extracellular matrix derived from
the human placenta. It is a readily available, inexpensive, and naturally biocompatible …

Background. Fetal membranes are tissues of particular interest for several reasons,
including their role in preventing rejection of the fetus and their early embryologic origin …
