Implementation of Cord- Blood Derived Unrestricted Somatic Stem Cells in the Regeneration of two Experimental Models: Carbon Tetrachloride and S. Mansoni Induced Liver Fibrosis
Abstract:Liver fibrosis is the wound-healing response of the liver to chronic injury it is very important to investigate different treatments and therapies for cirrhosis as the liver is one of the target organs for which stem cell-based therapeutics is very promising. In this study, Isolation, propagation, and characterization of unrestricted somatic stem cells (USSCs) from cord blood (CB) samples were performed and induced to differentiate into osteoblasts, adipocytes and hepatocyte-like cells. The therapeutic potenti… Show more
