Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether umbilical cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells of treatment for diabetic foot is safe and effective in the management of diabetic foot ischemia, the therapeutic effect of stem cells is caused by improving blood circulation in ischemic limb which would in turn promote ulcer healing, prevent amputation of limb and relieve the Sevier pain of ischemia.
This study will explore safety and efficacy of allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells transplantation (MSCT) to treat patients with diagnosis of systemic sclerosis(SSc) who have been resistant to multiple standard treatments. The underlying hypothesis is that the SSc condition is caused by an abnormal immune homeostasis that can be restored by MSCT.
The study aimed to investigate the short-term efficacy and long-term prognosis of liver failure patients caused by hepatitis B after single transplantation with autologous marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MMSCs). Liver failure inpatients caused by hepatitis B were recruited and received the same medical treatments, among whom some patients underwent single transplantation with autologous MMSCs and other patients with matched age, gender and biochemical indexes [alanine aminotransferase (ALT), albumin (ALB), total bilirubin (TBIL), prothrombin time (PT) and Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) ] were in control group. A total of 120 ml bone marrow were obtained from patients, diluted and separated. Then MMSCs suspension were slowly transfused into the liver through the proper hepatic artery by interventional procedures. The levels of ALB, TBIL, PT and MELD score of patients in translation group were compared with those in control group. In 3 ~ 48 months of follow-up, differences in long-term outcomes such as incidence of HCC (hepatocellular carcinoma) and mortality between two groups were compared.
This study will explore safety and efficacy of allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells transplantation (MSCT) to treat patients with diagnosis of primary Sjögren's Syndrome (pSS) who have been resistant to multiple standard treatments. The underlying hypothesis is that the pSS condition is caused by an abnormal immune homeostasis that can be restored by MSCT.
We will prospectively study 2 groups of diabetic patients treated with pioglitazone or placebo for 26 weeks. Bone marrow aspirates will be obtained from these patients at baseline and after 26 weeks of treatment, and hBMCs will be isolated from these bone marrow aspirations. The ability of hBMCs to differentiate into osteoblast and adipocytes lineages will be compared before and after treatment with pioglitazone and compared to placebo. In parallel, clinical markers of bone formation and resorption as well as bone mineral density will be assessed before and after 26 weeks of treatment. Primary endpoint for this study will be detection of change in number of osteoblasts or adipocytes from cultured hBMCs between study groups and within each group.
