Popis: Mesenchymal stem cells derived from human placenta (hPMSc) is an important alternative source of adult stem cells. These cells with multilinear capacity represent a biological material important for regenerative medicine. In this study, we established a mouse model for in utero transplantation of hPMCs to investigate if these cells would affect long-term, organ-specific engraftment. Murine model results can be extrapolated in human medicine in the treatment of various diseases. Key words: Placenta, mesenchymal stem cells, engraftment, in utero transplantation.
