  • 3. By contrast, research using human embryonic stem cells has been hampered by important technical difficulties. (lifeissues.net)
  • 5 Moreover, embryonic stem cells have caused tumors in animal models 6 and might seed cancer if administered to human patients. (lifeissues.net)
  • 4. The so-called "therapeutic cloning", which would be better called "research cloning" because we are still far from therapeutic applications, has been proposed in order to avert the potential immune rejection of embryonic stem cells derived from a donor other than the host. (lifeissues.net)
  • However, the use of cloned embryonic stem cells entails a high risk of introducing cells from abnormal embryos into patients. (lifeissues.net)
  • 9 Embryonic stem cells harvested from abnormal and unfit embryos will carry their "epigenetic defects" and transmit at least part of them to their daughter cells. (lifeissues.net)
  • The transfer of such cloned embryonic stem cells into a patient would be therefore extremely hazardous: these cells might provoke genetic disorders, or initiate leukemias or other cancers. (lifeissues.net)
  • Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have attracted widespread interest as promising candidates for the cell-based treatment of different degenerative disorders. (scitizen.com)
  • Consequently, MSCs are considered to be multipotent in that they can give rise to a restricted number of different cell types, unlike pluripotent embryonic stem cells that can differentiate into essentially all the cells of the body. (scitizen.com)
  • MSCs are generally isolated from tissues by their adherence to plastic culture surfaces and the exclusion of other contaminating cell types, such as the blood cells of the marrow. (scitizen.com)
  • As a result, most workers in the field recognise that they are probably working with a mixed population of cells that only contains a small subpopulation of true stem cells and it has been suggested that MSCs isolated and grown in this manner should be termed multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells to acknowledge this fact.

  • A stem cell transplant (SCT) is not a common treatment for Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM), but it might be an option in younger patients for whom other treatments are no longer working. (cancer.org)
  • These results add to the growing evidence that stem cell transplants should be considered as a potential treatment option for people with poor-prognosis scleroderma. (nih.gov)
  • 3] Sinceapproaches to remove lymphocytes that have little impact on treatment-relatedtoxicity are available,[4] the theoretical benefit from these purging proceduresseems to be warranted if autologous transplantation is used. (cancernetwork.com)
  • Althoughthere is evidence that allogeneic transplantation can lead to long-termdisease remissions in patients with aplastic anemia and coincidental autoimmunedisease, given the 20% to 30% treatment-related mortality, it is unlikelythat this approach can be justified for the majority of patients with autoimmunedisease.

Chronic myelogen1
Patient1
  • MSCs can be extracted from bone marrow and other tissues following relatively simple protocols and potentially used for self-repair when transplanted back into the patient (autologous transplant). (scitizen.com)
Mesenchymal1
  • This type of cartilage repair technique is often fortified by bone marrow acquired autologous mesenchymal stem cell support. (ivis.org)
Chemotherapy followed1
  • 6 , 9 , 10 Moreover, a retrospective study comparing intensive chemotherapy alone against chemotherapy followed by transplantation did not show a clear benefit for chemotherapy followed by SCT. (haematologica.org)
Graft1
  • Reduced-intensity conditioning followed by allo-HCT has been shown to reduce transplant-related mortality but graft-versus-host disease continues to be the major problem, thus the role of allo-HCT in NHL remains an investigational approach for NHL. (medscape.com)
Therapeutic1
  • Embryonic stem-cell experiments have not yet produced a single unqualified therapeutic success, not even in animal models. (lifeissues.net)
Complications2
  • They are most often given to prevent complications such as bone fractures and kidney damage. (medlineplus.gov)
  • Unfortunately, survivors often experience late complications (>1 year post transplant) in the cardiac, pulmonary, vascular and/or hematopoietic system(s) that-, over time, -contribute to increased morbidity and mortality when compared to that of non-transplanted individuals. (nih.gov)
Tissues6
  • MSCs are found in adult tissues with bone marrow-derived MSCs being the most widely studied. (scitizen.com)
  • MSCs can differentiate into a range of different tissues types associated with the musculoskeletal system such as bone, cartilage, fat, muscle, tendon and ligament. (scitizen.com)
  • Although previous recommendations for preventing transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) through transplantation of human tissue and organs have markedly reduced the risk for this type of transmission, a case of HIV transmission from a screened, antibody-negative donor to several recipients raised questions about the need for additional federal oversight of transplantation of organs and tissues. (cdc.gov)
  • A working group formed by the Public Health Service (PHS) in 1991 to address these issues concluded that further recommendations should be made to reduce the already low risk of HIV transmission by transplantation of organs and tissues. (cdc.gov)
  • This occurrence raised questions about the need for additional federal oversight of transplantation of organs and tissues. (cdc.gov)
  • The working group concluded that, although existing recommendations are largely sufficient, revisions should be made to reduce the already low risk of HIV transmission via transplantation of organs and tissues. (cdc.gov)
