Abstract
We describe a method of isolation of human mesenchymal stromal cells from the umbilical cord (Wharton's jelly) and human placenta: amnion, placental villi, and trophoblast. Morphology, immunophenotypic characteristics, and differentiation potencies of isolated cells were studied. The capacity of mesenchymal stromal cells from extraembryonic tissues to osteogenic, adipogenic, and chondrogenic differentiation was demonstrated and the dynamics of this process was described. The isolated cells met the criteria for multipotent mesenchymal stem cells.
