## Abstract Recent studies have demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cells could differentiate into germ cells under appropriate conditions. We sought to determine whether human umbilical cord Wharton's jelly‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs) could form germ cells in vitro. HUMSCs were induced
We investigated the effect of human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs) from Wharton's jelly on carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4 )-induced liver fibrosis in rats. Rats were treated with CCl 4 for 4 weeks, and this was followed by a direct injection of HUMSCs into their livers. After 4 more weeks of
