Isolation and characterization of human mesenchymal stromal cells derived from placental decidua basalis; umbilical cord wharton

Abstract

Objective: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are considered as an excellent source in regenerative medicine, but availability and ethical problems limited their routine use. Therefore, another available source with easy procedure and exempt from ethical debate is important. The purpose of this study is to isolate and characterize the MSCs from human placenta. The stromal cells were isolated from Placental Decidua Basalis (PDB-MSC), Umbilical cord Wharton
