Evaluating the differentiation potential of human chorion-derived mesenchymal stem cells into myoblast-like cells

ABSTRACT

Background: To restore the lost cells of patients diagnosed with Muscular Degenerative diseases, stem cell therapy has recently proved to be an effective strategy. Chorion is an ethically approved reservoir which contains mesenchymal stem cells with self- renewal properties and multilineage differentiation capacity. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the myogenic differentiation potential of human chorion-derived mesenchymal stem cells [C-MSCs] for the first time
