Expression of adult stem cell markers in full-term rat C-kit positive amniotic fluid cells / Danie Dean Damian

Amniotic fluid (AF) is a promising tool for future drug discovery and regenerative medicine due to the presence of amniotic fluid stem cells (AFSCs). Previous study has reported the presence of broadly multipotent stem cells from full term AF which corporate safer harvesting approach compared to the...
