Abstract

La presente invencion provee un metodo para derivar celulas madre hepaticas a partir de celulas madre derivadas de tejido no hepatico. En una incorporacion de la invencion, las celulas madre hepaticas son derivadas de celulas madre de tejido adiposo. La invencion provee tambien un metodo para estimular la produccion de citocinas hepaticas (por ejemplo, HGF) a partir de celulas madre adiposas (CMA), el cual puede ser util en la regenracion de tejido hepatico cuando estas son transplantadas in vivo. Se proveen condiciones para el cultivo de tejidos, incluyendo las condiciones del medio.
