HLG-G made by mesenchymal stem cells
Besancon, France - The ability of mesenchymal stem cells to inhibit inflammatory immune responses has been established in in vitro models, as well as in clinical trials of inflammatory conditions, such as the trials of Osiris for treatment of GVHD and Crohn's disease. In a recent paper (Selmani Z et al. HLA-G5 secretion by Human...
Stem cells for diabetes: 2 types better than one
Budapest, Hungary - Numerous studies have demonstrated that bone marrow stem cells, as well as other types of stem cells have the ability to reconstitute insulin production in animals whose insulin producing cells are damaged by chemical or immune agents. The problem with clinical translation of these types of approaches is the difficulty not just to obtain insulin production, but to obtain...

All Stroma Immune Suppressive
London, UK -
The immune suppressive properties of mesenchymal stem cells has led to numerous scientific publications, as well as exploration in clinical cases of autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis.
In a recent paper (Jones et al. The antiproliferative... Helsinki, Finland
It is to be expected that tumor cells possess altered biological characteristics in comparison to their non-malignant counterparts. One very interesting method of targeting tumors is through the use of viruses that have a specific tissue trophism towards neoplastically transformed tissue. For example, it is known that human reovirus can only grow in cells that have an... [Watch the Video]
This is a video describing the use of stem cells for treatment of peripheral artery disease. Numerous publications have supported the safety and efficacy of this approach which seems to not only directly cause angiogenesis but also mobilize host stem cells which apparently contribute to revascularization

This video describes the use of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for the treatment of renal failure in an animal model. It summarizes a publication that demonstrates systemic administration of 1 million mesenchymal stem cells not only reduces serum creatinine post ischemia reperfusion injury, but also that these cells play an antiapoptotic and anti-inflammatory... Seattle, WA-
The ability of mesenchymal stem cells to suppress the immune system is well-known. However, few studies, if any, have compared immune suppressive efficacy of mesenchymal stem cells from different sources. In a recent study (Keyser et al. Comparison of mesenchymal stem cells from different tissues to suppress... [Watch the Video]
This video describes the possibility of treating Type 2 Diabetes through administration of mesenchymal stem cells. The author first discusses the possibility of preventing diabetes progression by inhibiting inflammation with mesenchymal stem cells, as well as the usual stem cell regeneration of islets. Interestingly, the video also addresses the possibility of...
