Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Chorionic Villi and Amniotic Fluid are not Susceptible to Transformation after Extensive in Vitro Expansion
7 Dec 2010
Abstract excerpt
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are promising candidates for cell therapy and tissue engineering. Increasing evidence suggests that MSCs isolated from fetal tissues are more plastic and grow faster than adult MSCs. In this study, we characterized human mesenchymal progenitor cells from chorionic villi (CV) and amniotic fluid (AF) isolated during the first and second trimesters, respectively, and compared them with...
