Human amniotic fluid stem cells (hAFSCs) integrate into myelomeningocele–rat amniotic fluid and produce hepatocyte growth factor. (A, B): Representative images of E21‐rat amniotic fluid cells (A) under phase contrast microscopy and STEM121 staining (×40; scale bars: 200 μm). (B): RT‐qPCR analysis of paracrine mediators in CD117 positive (CD117+) amniotic fluid cells obtained from E19 (48 hours after hAFSCs injection) and E21 (96 hours after hAFSCs injection) rat amniotic fluid cells compared with those from hAFSCs before injection into rat amniotic fluid. Results are presented as mean ± SD; *, p < .05 compared with control.
