Dr. Cecilia Götherström is working as an Associate Professor at the Karolinska Institutet the Karolinska Institutet. Her research interests include Cells derived from the fetal and perinatal tissues have more potential than cells derived from adult tissues. Promising candidates for clinical translation are mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). Her interest in these cells is based on their multipotentiality, low immunogenicity and tissue repairing effects in combination with a minimal oncogeneic risk.

Isolation and Characterization of Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Human Fetal Liver; Potential Candidates for Replacement Therapy in Liver Disease
Liver cell transplantation (LCT) is emerging as an alternative to organ transplantation in the treatment of liver disease since tissue unavailability and immunological incompatibilities are still major obstacles. Primary human hepatocytes are the first choice for LCT. Howe... view moreĀ»
