Bone marrow transplantation = example of cell therapy
- Hematopoietic SC (HSC)= powerful – several diseases affect WBC – potentially be treated by
HSC
Mesenchymal Stem cells = in placenta, bone marrow, heart, muscles and several other sources – used
to treat bone diseases – e.g. – cartilage injury
- Mesenchymal stem cells secrete anti-inflammatory areas – can ‘dampen’ down areas of
inflammation
- E.g. = stroke – excess bleeding causes inflammation – drugs often contain anti-inflammatorys
– potential for mesenchymal cells
- For cartilage injury – cartilage producing cells = grown from mesenchymal sc – (from patients’
bone marrow) – grown and specified – put into gel and back into body – regeneration of
cartilage.
Massive increase in clinal trials involving mesenchymal stem cells over the years
Cell differentiation = in vivo or in vitro
- In vivo = inside the body
- In vitro = outside the body
