Human Amniotic Membrane and Amniotic Membrane-Derived Cells: How Far Are We from Their Use in Regenerative and Reconstructive Urology?

abstract：:Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilizes peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) derived from bone marrow. We hypothesized that intraspinal transplantation of PBSCs mobilized by G-CSF could promote functional recovery after spinal cord injury. Spinal cords of adult nonobese diabetes/severe immunodeficiency ...
