P137: Stem Cell Therapy in Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative brain disorder which plays an important role in neural cell destruction and as a result it causes memory loss in the patients. This disease is also the most common type of dementia which doesn’t completely respond to medical treatments so no certain cure is available. Recent studies show the advantages of using stem cells (SCs) in ...
متن کاملP 53: Stem Cell Therapy for Treatment of Autoimmune Diseases (with Emphasis on Multiple Sclerosis)
Autoimmune diseases have been described as an interesting and poorly understood group of disorders. There are many challenges in the respective scientific societies concerning the nature, causes and the therapeutic approaches of these diseases. In accordance with the evidences the nature and etiology of these disorders is multifactorial and complex but the clearest definition could be expressed...
متن کاملStem cell therapy for severe autoimmune diseases
The interest in autoimmune diseases (ADs) is increasing exponentially (1, 2). Their estimated prevalence in Western countries ranges from 3% to 70% of the general population (3). Autoimmunity coincides with the loss of tolerance to the self (4); it is thought of as a persistent failure of an integrated fabric of components rather than the adverse consequence of a specific “forbidden clone” (5)....
متن کاملImmune ablation and stem-cell therapy in autoimmune disease: Experimental basis for autologous stem-cell transplantation
Treatment of rats suffering from florid chronic progressive systemic arthritis or from chronic remitting/relapsing encephalomyelitis with autologous bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is highly effective. This finding was unexpected as the genotype of the bone marrow largely determines the susceptibility of both spontaneous and induced autoimmune diseases in rodents. The success of autologous st...
متن کاملImmune ablation and stem-cell therapy in autoimmune disease: Introduction
Estimates of the prevalence of autoimmune diseases range from 3 to 7%, and the treatment of a minority of these patients with severe progressive disease is not satisfactory. It has been recognized that the autoimmune basis of human disease results from the failure of multiple components of the immune system, but the most frequently used criteria to establish the autoimmune nature of a disease i...
