摘要

The present invention relates to a biomaterial, specifically a hydrogel, based on the extracellular matrix of the umbilical cord for its application in regenerative medicine. The invention particularly relates to a biomaterial made up of glycosaminoglycans present exclusively in the Wharton' s jelly of the umbilical cord (which can optionally be combined with cells as a combination therapy), and also to the methods for the production and use thereof.
