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 ...
