The potential of amniotic fluid stem cells for cellular therapy and tissue engineering

31 May 2011

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Foetal cells present in amniotic fluid (AF) have been used for many years to perform prenatal genetic screening. Recent reports suggested that these cells might have additional benefits. AF contains, in addition to committed and differentiated cells, a subpopulation with stem cell characteristics. AF-derived stem cells (AFS) have functions found in mesenchymal stem cells, but in addition, exhibit a...
