Prospects for the use of cord blood cells for the treatment of non-hematological diseases

Abstract

The review is devoted to the search for new [non-hematopoietic] stem and progenitor cell populations of human umbilical cord blood, the possibilities of their isolation and therapeutic use. For convenience, the review is divided into several chapters, at the end of each of which there is a separate list of references.
