The development of new treatments to reduce acute and chronic neonatal lung disease is a research priority. In Section One of this thesis, the novel approach of a candidate cell therapy is investigated as such a possible treatment. Human amnion epithelial cells (hAECs) - derived from term placentae – have pluripotent and anti-inflammatory properties ...
