Stem cell therapy may offer hope for acute lung injury
Now adult stem cells from bone marrow can prevent acute lung injury. Acute lung injury (ALI) is responsible for an estimated 74,500 deaths in the U.S. each year. ALI can be caused by any major inflammation or injury to the lungs and is a major cause of death in patients in hospital. There is no effective drug treatment. In ALI, the layer of cells that forms the lining of the blood vessels surrounding the lung’s air sacs is damaged, allowing fluid to leak in and fill the sacs. Repair of t... Readmore
TREATMENT FOR DUCHENNE MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY
Stem cell therapy has the potential to revolutionize the treatment of a variety of human conditions. Rather than addressing the symptoms of a particular disease or condition, stem cell therapy seeks to address the cause of the condition, to effect repair or reversal of the disease state through the regeneration of the affected tissue Now a days treating incurable diseases is not a major issue, Stem Cell Therapy has helped many patients getting treatment for incurable diseases of which Muscular d...

CORD BLOOD BANKING- LIFE TO YOUR BABY
What is cord-blood banking, and is it right for you? This question generally strikes parent’s mind. On the day you deliver your baby, you’ll probably be overcome with visions of your future with your child – first smiles and steps, birthday parties and sports events, and holidays and life milestones. Your little one ever becoming seriously ill will probably be the last thing on your mind. But some parents do consider the possibility that a serious illness might someday affect their... Readmore
Umbilical cord blood cells and brain stroke injury
Degeneration of brain tissue following stroke leads to functional impairment with limited brain self-repair. New evidence suggests that intravenous delivery of the CD34+ subpopulation of human Umbilical cord blood cells can enhance angiogenesis, neurogenesis, and morphological and functional recovery. Behavioral recovery from stroke and injury following delivery of human umbilical cord blood cells has been observed, but in the absence of significant numbers of grafted cells entering the brain t...

Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation: A New Alternative Option
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is a life-saving procedure for hematopoietic malignancies, marrow failure syndromes, and hereditary immunodeficiency disorders. Umbilical cord blood (UCB) has being increasingly used as an alternative hematopoietic stem cell source for these patients. To date, over 6000 UCB transplant procedures in children and adults have been performed worldwide using UCB donors. Broader use of UCB for adult patients is however limited by the available infused... Readmore
Unrelated cord blood transplantation for patients with advanced myelodysplastic syndrome
Cryopreserved umbilical cord blood (UCB) contains sufficient numbers of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) to engraft younger pediatric patients with leukemia. Recent data demonstrate promising results in larger children and adults, as well as in patients with nonmalignant disorders. As a result, the number of UCB transplantations (UCBT) being performed is increasing dramatically. UCB has the clear benefits of rapid availability and a reduced stringency of requirement for HLA match. Furthermore, new... Readmore
Cord blood stem cell transplantation successfully treated many diseases
Cord blood stem cell transplantation successfully treated many diseases and debilitating conditions. Develop stem cells harvested from umbilical cord blood of newborn babies in any type of organ or tissue such as liver, heart and nerve cells. You can also repair damaged tissues and organs in strokes and heart attacks. Cord blood stem cells and leukemia in adults Cord blood stem cells are often used to treat childhood leukemia for many years. However, only in recent years, the adults with leukemi... Readmore
Adult Stem Cell Hope for Spinal Injury Patients
When you “do” science in ways that do not offend God, He will bless your efforts abundantly. It’s just that simple. Here’s is the latest outcome of adult stem cell grafts in spinal cord injuries and it led to increased mobility and quality of life for patients. Patients with severe chronic spinal cord injuries received a treatment combination of partial scar removal, transplantation of nasal tissue containing stem cells to the site of the spinal cord injury and rehabilita...

Damaged knee joints can be repaired with cartilage grown from stem cells
Now Damaged knee joints can be repaired with cartilage grown from stem cells by using adult stem cells from bone marrow and skin as well as human embryonic stem cells. Athanasiou and his group have already grown cartilage tissue in the lab. Now they are experimenting with various chemical and mechanical stimuli to improve its properties. Cartilage is one of the very rare tissues that lack the ability to heal it self. When damaged by injury or osteoarthritis, the effects can be long-lasting and ... Readmore
Benefit of Adipose-Derived Regenerative Cells In Spinal Injury
Now this ADRC is available to the patients at number of therapy centers all over the world. The hidden forward of adipose-derived proceed and regenerative cells (ADRCs) during the treatment of damaged intervertebral discs, evidenced by significantly increased disc tissue density and disc-spelled out extracellular matrix components at 12-months brief treatment. This research demonstrates the potential of a patient’s own ADRCs to repair the spinal disc. While this chew over relied upon the stock... Readmore
Stem Cell Therapy doing Miracles
Stem cell therapy is doing miracles in lives of people and treating incurable diseases which are life threatening diseases. A breakthrough was achieved recently in the case of an 18 year old boy, a case of advanced stage of Aplastic anemia where stem cells of not one but three donors were used to treat him. 18 year old Aman, student of class 12, fainted in school. He was diagnosed for Aplastic Anemia, a disorder where the bone marrow stops producing red blood cells and platelets. He was treated ... Readmore
RIB INJURY Recovers with Stem-Cells!
Stem cell therapy has the potential to revolutionize the treatment of a variety of human conditions. Rather than addressing the symptoms of a particular disease or condition, stem cell therapy seeks to address the cause of the condition, to effect repair or reversal of the disease state through the regeneration of the affected tissue. The ageing process, the onset of disease and the stresses of modern life all contribute to cell death within major organs of the body, including the brain. Cell de... Readmore
