Extending cord blood transplant to adults: dealing with problems and results overall

Seminars in Hematology
Claudio G Brunstein, M J Laughlin

Abstract

The development of newer strategies to overcome, in particular, the cell dose limitation, has increased the availability of umbilical cord blood (UCB) as a source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) for transplantation of adults. Among these strategies is the development of the double UCB, ex vivo, and reduced-intensity transplantation platforms. Several ongoing registry-based and single-institution and multicenter clinical trials are investigating ways to make UCB transplantation safer and to improve the outcomes of adults after UCB transplantation. We review the background data and promising newer strategies that will further expand the utilization of UCB for the treatment of adults.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.

Astrocytes

Astrocytes are glial cells that support the blood-brain barrier, facilitate neurotransmission, provide nutrients to neurons, and help repair damaged nervous tissues. Here is the latest research.
