A simple alkaline method for decellularizing human amniotic membrane for cell culture.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Human amniotic membrane is a standard substratum used to culture limbal epithelial stem cells for transplantation to patients with limbal stem cell deficiency. Various methods were developed to decellularize amniotic membrane, because denuded membrane is

Amniotic Fluid and Amniotic Membrane Stem Cells: Marker Discovery [PDF]

Stem Cells International, 2012
Amniotic fluid (AF) and amniotic membrane (AM) have been recently characterized as promising sources of stem or progenitor cells. Both not only contain subpopulations with stem cell characteristics resembling to adult stem cells, such as mesenchymal stem cells, but also exhibit some embryonic stem cell properties like (i) expression of pluripotency ...
