Autoimmune diseases as stem cell disorders.
Using an animal model for insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), the NOD mouse, we have demonstrated that allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) has a preventative effect on IDDM, and that a combined transplantation of pancreas and bone marrow can be used to treat IDDM. We have also shown that BMT has a curative effect on systemic autoimmune disease in (NZB x NZW) F1, BXSB, and (NZW ...
متن کاملP 53: Stem Cell Therapy for Treatment of Autoimmune Diseases (with Emphasis on Multiple Sclerosis)
Autoimmune diseases have been described as an interesting and poorly understood group of disorders. There are many challenges in the respective scientific societies concerning the nature, causes and the therapeutic approaches of these diseases. In accordance with the evidences the nature and etiology of these disorders is multifactorial and complex but the clearest definition could be expressed...
متن کاملStem cell therapy for severe autoimmune diseases
The interest in autoimmune diseases (ADs) is increasing exponentially (1, 2). Their estimated prevalence in Western countries ranges from 3% to 70% of the general population (3). Autoimmunity coincides with the loss of tolerance to the self (4); it is thought of as a persistent failure of an integrated fabric of components rather than the adverse consequence of a specific “forbidden clone” (5)....
متن کاملStem cell transplantation for rheumatic autoimmune diseases
Immunoablative therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an intensive treatment modality aimed at 'resetting' the dysregulated immune system of a patient with immunoablative therapy and allow outgrowth of a nonautogressive immune system from reinfused hematopoietic stem cells, either from the patient (autologous HSCT) or a healthy donor (allogeneic HSCT). HSCT has been shown...
متن کاملP 86: CD166 as a Therapeutic Target in Autoimmune Diseases
About 3 decades ago CD6 identified as one of the first antigens expresses on the majority of T cells and a subset of B cells. CD6 regulates cellular adhesion migration across the endothelial and epithelial cells. In recent years researches indicate its role in pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. Many researches have been done in recent years to block CD6 by CD6 mono clonal antibodies, IOR-T1 a...
