Clinical applications of stem cell-derived exosomes
Although stem cell-based therapy has demonstrated considerable potential to manage certain diseases more successfully than conventional surgery, it nevertheless comes with inescapable drawbacks that might limit its clinical translation. Compared to stem cells, stem cell-derived exosomes possess numerous advantages, such as non-immunogenicity, non-infusion toxicity, easy access, effortless preservation, and freedom from tumorigenic potential and ethical issues.
Effects of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell conditioned medium on human tenocytes exposed to high glucose
Diabetic tendinopathy is a common invalidating and challenging disease that may be treated using stem cells. However, the effects of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell conditioned medium (ASC-CM) in diabetic tendinopathy have never been explored.
Does stem cell transplantation benefit patients with knee osteoarthritis?
Cell therapy represents a potential regenerative treatment for osteoarthritis. A recent analysis of all relevant published studies indicates that stem cell transplantation from different sources is effective for treating knee osteoarthritis, the most prevalent chronic joint disease.
Decoding stem cells for personalised regenerative medicine
Researchers developed a personalised stem cell therapy using a data-driven, single-cell technique based on swift subcellular proteomic imaging.
The heterogeneity of mesenchymal stem cells: an important issue to be addressed in cell therapy
In recent years, the application of MSCs in various diseases has received widespread attention, but there are still various problems in the treatment of MSCs, among which the heterogeneity of MSCs may be one of the causes of the problem.
An Introduction to Cell Therapy
Using cellular products as a therapy is not a contemporary concept; literature dates back to the late 19th century, when Charles Édouard Brown-Séquard pioneered organotherapy (using organ extracts as a medical treatment) to suppress human aging.
Injections for Knee Pain: Could They Help You?
Knee pain is one of the most common physical complaints for adults, affecting roughly one in four Americans over age 60. Although surgery may be required for the most severe cases, many people can get relief from a less invasive procedure: injections into the joint.
