Human mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) can be isolated from bone marrow (BM) and differentiated into multiple lineages. These properties make them promising tools in cell and gene therapy. Up to now, no definite therapeutic intervention for late stages of multiple sclerosis (MS) has been found. We...
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disorder that causes damage in the brain and spinal cord, which can lead to a range of symptoms, including fatigue, depression, muscle spasms, and difficulty regulating the bladder and bowels. Several strategies using stem cells — self-renewing cells ...

“Deciding to have stem cell therapy and go to Moscow was a decision that we didn’t take lightly. It took a couple of months to really make the decision and then actually go for it. The reason being, we’ve got three children. And we’ve never left the children before. So that wa...
Stem Cell Therapy for Multiple Sclerosis A complex degenerative disorder of the central nervous system is characterized by long-term progressive loss of axons. It is identified to be an autoimmune disease, attacking the central nervous system and damaging nerve fibers; further making it very hard fo...
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation Multiple sclerosis Autoimmunity Immune ablation There are published reports of more than 600 bone marrow-based transplants performed primarily for the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS). This review will focus on why and how the hematopoietic stem cell transplantat...
What are the Benefits ofStem Cell Therapy for MS? People may consider MSCs for multiple sclerosis stem cell as cure, , but their benefits are primarily due to their anti-inflammatory, regenerative, immunomodulatory, and healing properties:
Stem Cell Therapy for Multiple Sclerosis: An Exciting Challenge or a Treatment HopeMultiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune inflammatory disease in which release of various cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor -α (TNFα) and interferon gamma (IFNγ), can damage myelin,......
Over 2 million people globally havemultiple sclerosis (MS), a disease that affects the nervous system and can lead to problems moving, seeing and thinking. Ad While there are treatments that can help reduce the number and severity of MS attacks, many people with MS eventually develop a more ...
Mice crippled by an autoimmune disease similar to multiple sclerosis (MS) regained the ability to walk and run after a team of researchers led by scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI), University of Utah and University of California (UC), I
