What conditions does stem cell therapy apply to? Inventory those classic success stories ~
2020-01-09
Most cells in the human body need to be constantly updated, and they have a process from newborn to apoptosis. Stem cells are called "universal cells". They are a class of cells that have not yet fully differentiated and have the potential for self-renewal, high proliferation, and differentiation. They have the potential to regenerate into various tissues, organs, and human bodies. The use of stem cells can differentiate into related The cells complement those that are apoptotic.
Stem cell therapy refers to the process in which stem cells derived from autologous or allogeneic humans are introduced (implanted) into the human body after in vitro operation and act on the treatment of diseases. It is one of the most complex and advanced therapies in clinical treatment. In the face of diseases that cannot be overcome by means, stem cell therapy gives patients hope and is widely used in many fields.
Successful examples of classic stem cell therapy
Treatment of leukemia, hope for cure of severe diseases
Doctors at the University of Washington, FredHutchinson Hospital in the United States took the lead in using HLA technology to treat leukemia with HLA-matched twin sibling donor syngeneic bone marrow transplantation. The first report of a successful case shocked the world. Follow-up after the uninterrupted 1970s During the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, it was found that some leukemia patients did not relapse for many years and returned to normal life. For the first time in the world, the possibility and fact of malignant disease being cured were revealed.
Break through premature ovarian failure & treat infertility
In 2016, a 14-year-old girl with premature aging was treated with placental mesenchymal stem cells at the Third Hospital of Peking University. After receiving treatment, the girl's mental state improved significantly, her rapidly aging body was relieved, and her skin became stronger than before. Smooth, with signs of improvement in hearing and liver function.
Ms. Fang, who was diagnosed with ovarian failure 34 years ago, with the help of stem cell regenerative medicine technology from the Institute of Genetics and Development of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, successfully gave birth to the first healthy baby in China in the clinical study of stem cell treatment for premature ovarian failure in 2018.
The above two clinical cases prove that stem cell therapy has considerable therapeutic effects in the fields of premature aging, anti-aging, and infertility.
Reliable and safe for treating diabetes
In 2011, Professor Han Zhongchao's research team and Liaoyang Diabetes Hospital used placental mesenchymal stem cells to treat 10 insulin-dependent patients with type 2 diabetes. After the treatment, the insulin consumption of 10 patients was greatly reduced, halving on average. After placental mesenchymal stem cell transplantation, there were no fever, chills, liver damage, and other side effects, and renal and cardiac functions were significantly improved.
"Painted Skin" Comes True, 7-Year-Old Boy Skin Resurfacing
In November 2017, Nature published a sensational scientific achievement worldwide. A 7-year-old Syrian boy Hassan has a congenital genetic disease with bullous epidermolysis. His extracellular interstitial material loses "stickiness", causing blisters in all parts of the body, and the skin falling off. Regenerative medicine expert Professor Michele Luca used skin stem cell regeneration technology to cultivate 0.85 square meters of healthy skin for him, and his skin was replaced after multiple transplants. After 8 months of treatment, Hasan was discharged from the hospital with almost completely new skin and was reborn.
Solving stroke problems, paralyzed patients welcome dawn
In 2016, in a study by the team of Professor Gary Steinberg, chair of Stanford University's neurosurgery, 18 stroke patients of various ages received amazing results after receiving stem cell treatment. Researchers have drilled a small hole in the patient's skull and injected stem cells into the damaged area of the brain. One of the patients, Sonia who had been in a wheelchair for several years and had trouble speaking, lost her shoulder pain and could turn her right arm.
In addition to the above examples, many public celebrities have also benefited from cell therapy: real estate giant Kevin Wicks was diagnosed with early-onset Parkinson's disease in October 2013, and he received brain stem cell injection surgery in December 2016 worldwide (First batch), well-recovered Kevin participated in a 2,400-km cycling race; as early as 2011, Ronaldo suffered a leg injury accidentally in order to restore his left leg to health as quickly as possible in order to get back in the Champions League, he received stem cells The treatment has a considerable effect; singer Liu Ruoying was found to have knee valgus valgus in 2007, and she received stem cell therapy in 2012.
