Objective:To investigate the expression of Galectins in umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells(UC-MSCs) from Wharton's jelly.Methods: Umbilical cords were obtained sterilely from full term caesarean infants,then mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) were isolated from Wharton's jelly of the umbilical cord via tissue cultivation.The morphology of UC-MSCs was observed under the optical microscope,and its immunophenotypes were analyzed by flow cytometry.The differentiation of UC-MSCs into the osteoblasts and adipocytes ...
