Abstract
⺠Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are potential seed cells for tissue-engineered skin. ⺠Tissue-derived umbilical cord MSCs (UCMSCs) can readily be isolated in vitro. ⺠We induce UCMSCs to differentiate into dermal fibroblasts via conditioned medium. ⺠Collagen type I and collagen type III mRNA level was higher in differentiated cells. ⺠UCMSCs-derived fibroblast-like cells strongly express fibroblast-specific protein.
