Therapeutic effect of human amniotic membrane-derived cells on experimental arthritis and other inflammatory disorders.

Author information Parolini O1, Souza-Moreira L, O’Valle F, Magatti M, Hernandez-Cortes P, Gonzalez-Rey E, Delgado M. Abstract OBJECTIVE: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease caused by loss of immunologic self tolerance and characterized by chronic joint inflammation. Cells isolated from human amniotic membrane (HAMCs) were recently found to display immunosuppressive properties. The aim of

Effect of amniotic membrane to reduce postlaminectomy epidural adhesion on a rat model.

J Korean Neurosurg Soc. 2011 Jun;49(6):323-8. doi: 10.3340/jkns.2011.49.6.323. Epub 2011 Jun 30. Choi HJ1, Kim KB, Kwon YM. 1Department of Neurosurgery, College of Medicine, Dong-A University, Busan, Korea. Abstract OBJECTIVE: Epidural fibrosis and adhesion are the main reasons for post-laminectomy sustained pain and functional disability. In this study, the authors investigate the effect of irradiated
