  • In other types of hemolytic anemia, the body's immune system , infections, certain drugs, or other agents attack normal red blood cells, causing them to hemolyze. (daviddarling.info)
  • Also, the body's immune system may recognize that the red blood cells are abnormal, and an organ called the spleen may remove the cells from the bloodstream. (daviddarling.info)
  • Prior to the advent of regenerative medicine and cellular expansion, cord blood treatments typically required the entire unit to help rebuild the blood and immune system. (cordforlife.com)
  • Stem cell transplants fall into two categories: autologous and allogeneic. (mdanderson.org)
