Stem cells are found in many parts of the human body, although some sources have richer concentrations than others. Some excellent sources of stem cells, such as bone marrow, peripheral blood, cord blood, other tissue stem cells and ...
متن کاملStrategies in Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplantation in Adults
UNLABELLED Haploidentical related donors are alternative stem cell sources for patients without human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related or unrelated donors. Immediate access to the donor, availability for patients with rare haplotypes, ease of stem cell procurement, and lack of a requirement for a physical cord blood bank or an extensive HLA database render this type of hematopoietic stem...
متن کاملStrategies for widening the use of cord blood in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
hematopoietic transplantation are well known, and include the lack of risk to the donor, the rapid and easy procurement process and the low likelihood of transmitting infectious diseases. Furthermore, the increased tolerance to donor-recipient human leukocyte antigen (HLA) mismatches makes this source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) a very important alternative for patients without HLA-matche...
متن کاملWhat are Stem Cells?
Stem cells are undifferentiated self regenerating multi potential cells. There are three types of stem cells categories by the ability to form after cells and correlated with the body’s development process. Totipotent: these stem cells can form an entire organism such as fertilized egg. Ploripotent: ploripotent cells are those that can form any cell in the body but cannot form an entire organ...
