Transplantation of Allogenic Fetal Membrane-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Protects against Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Acute Kidney Injury

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are an attractive therapeutic cell source for treating renal diseases. MSC administration has been shown to improve renal function, although the underlying mechanisms are not completely understood. We recently showed that allogenic fetal membrane-derived MSCs (FM-MSCs),...
