Comparative study between the effects of human CD34 and rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on amelioration of CCl[4] induced liver fibrosis

Human umbilical cord blood [UCB] cells and rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells [BM-MSCs] have many advantages as grafts for cell transplantation. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of UCB cells and BM-MSCs on reversal of hepatic injury and revival of hepatic function in a rat model of carbon tetrachloride [CCl[4]]-induced liver fibrosis
