Transplantation of Human Wharton's Jelly-Derived Stem Cells Alleviates Chemically Induced Liver Fibrosis in Rats

Transplantation of Human Wharton's Jelly-Derived Stem Cells Alleviates Chemically Induced Liver Fibrosis in Rats

There is currently no effective treatment method available for liver fibrosis. We therefore evaluated the use of Wharton's jelly stem cells (WJSCs; the major umbilical cord stem cell population) to treat chemically induced liver fibrosis via intraperitoneal injection of thioacetamide. WJSCs wer...
