ObjectiveAmniotic membrane (AM) extract is a promising tool in regenerative medicine, which offers similar therapeutic effects as intact AM but with a simpler and safer approach. AM displays several subregional variances.MethodThe quantitative analysis of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) in placental and reflected AM sections were assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.ResultsDetection of high levels of HGF and TGF-beta 1 with variation in concentration between the placental and reflected portions of the same membrane.ConclusionUnderstanding AM subregional variations would optimize AM extract preparation for specific regenerative medicine therapies.
