Amniotic Fluid Stem Cells within Chimeric Kidney Rudiments Differentiate to Functional Podocytes after Transplantation into Mature Rat Kidneys

[摘要] The pioneering work of Grobstein, Saxen, and Sariola led to the development of culture systems that could support the growth and differentiation of mouse kidney rudiments in vitro .[1][1] Cultured kidney rudiments can be easily manipulated, either genetically or by the application of growth factors.
