Mesenchymal stem cells cultured in serum-free medium ameliorate experimental peritoneal fibrosis

Abstract Background Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) provide potential treatments for peritoneal fibrosis. However, MSCs cultured in media containing serum bring risks of infection and other problems. In this study, we compared the effect of human MSCs in serum-free medium (SF-MSCs) on peritoneal fibro...
