Protective effect of human amniotic fluid stem cells in an immunodeficient mouse model of acute tubular necrosis.

Acute Tubular Necrosis (ATN) causes severe damage to the kidney epithelial tubular cells and is often associated with severe renal dysfunction. Stem-cell based therapies may provide alternative approaches to treating of ATN. We have previously shown that clonal c-kit(pos) stem cells, derived from hu...
