Abstract Background Term Amniotic membrane (AM) is a very attractive source of
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) due to the fact that this fetal tissue is usually discarded …

Introduction: The human amniotic membrane is a highly abundant and readily available
tissue that may be useful for regenerative medicine and cell therapy. Aim: To compare two …

The human amniotic membrane (HAM) contains two cell types from different embryological
origins. Human amnion epithelial cells (hAECs) are derived from the embryonic ectoderm …

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the ability to differentiate into osteocytes,
chondrocytes, and adipocytes and possess immunomodulatory properties. Amniotic …

Human amniotic fluid obtained at amniocentesis, when cultured, generates at least two
morphologically distinct mesenchymal stem/stromal cell (MSC) subsets. Of these, the …

The secretion of potential therapeutic factors by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has
aroused much interest given the benefits that it can bring in the field of regenerative …

In vivo studies have shown that amnion-produced growth factors participate in many
diseases that involve angiogenesis, re-epithelialization and immunomodulation. Although …

Most urgent health problems are related to a blood vessel formation failure. The use of stem
cells from different sources or species for both in vitro and in vivo engineering of …

Cells were isolated from four human amniotic membranes, and their biological
characteristics analyzed during ex vivo expansion. Morphologically homogenous …

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 …
