introduction: transplantation of bone marrow stromal cells (bmscs) or schwann cells (scs) can increase axonal regeneration in peripheral nerve injuries. based on our previous investigations, the goal of the present work was to examine the individual and synergistic effects of the two different cell types in sciatic nerve injury . we pursued to evaluate the effects of bmscs and scs co-transplant...

THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY FOR BLOOD AND MARROW TRANSPLANTATION (SBTMO) PRESENTS GUIDELINES ON HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELL

bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can differentiate into neurons and astrocytes after transplantation in the spinal cord injury of rats. although bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are known to protect against spinal cord injury through anti-apoptotic effects, but generation of neural stem cells with large number and safety protocols unclear. in the present study, described the differentiation...

THE BRAZILIAN SOCIETY FOR BLOOD AND MARROW TRANSPLANTATION (SBTMO) PRESENTS GUIDELINES ON HEMATOPOIETIC STEM CELL

introduction: drug utilization evaluation (due) studies are designed to assess drug usage appropriateness. dues have traditionally focused on drugs with high price tags, complicated dosage schedules, narrow therapeutic indices and regular side effects. the primary goal of the present study is to evaluate imipenem usage in bone marrow transplantation (bmt) wards. methods: the study was a prospec...

background :cell-based therapies can be used to treat neurological diseases and spinal cord injuries. the aim of this study was to assess the clinical outcome of bone marrow derived mononuclear cells (bm-mncs) transplantation in patients with spinal cord injuries.   method s: following a systematic review to detect clinical intervention studies, a meta-analysis was done for pooling data to esti...

Allogeneic blood or marrow hematopoietic cell transplantation continues to be the most potent anti-leukemic treatment for adult patients with standard, high-risk, or chemo-refractory acute myeloid leukemia. Until recently, this procedure was generally limited to those recipients who had an available matched-sibling donor or matched-unrelated donor. Technical advances in graft cell processing an...

introduction: this review reports the current results of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hsct) in patients who had received transplantation in the hematology-oncology and sct research center, tehran, iran. methods: in iran, from 1991 through 2010, a total of 3170 hematopoietic stem cell transplantation have been carried out. the male/female patient ratio was 1909/1261 with a median age...

which permits unrestricted non-commercial use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Cord blood (CB) has been used as an alternative source for unrelated stem cell transplantation (SCT) for patients with hematologic malignances, bone marrow failure syndromes , and immune deficiencies. Since the first patient (a child with Fanconi anemia) was...
