Proven possibilities: Cord Blood stem cells are routinely used to treat over 80 diseases. | Maximize future possibilities: MSCs may treat additional conditions and are being evaluated in numerous clinical trials for: joints and bones (Arthritis), autoimmune (Diabetes), wound care and spinal cord injury.* Clinical uses of MSCs from cord tissue are promising but in the early stages of development. |
How it works: Some diseases affect the body’s ability to create blood forming cells which are needed to live. A Cord Blood transplant replaces unhealthy blood forming cells with healthy cells. Cord blood stem cells are used to re-build our bone marrow and immune system after receiving chemotherapy. Cord blood is also being used in clinical trials for regenerative medicine, Cerebral Palsy and brain injury as an example. | How it works: MSCs can go to the site of inflammation, inhibit inflammation, stimulate recovery of injured cells, differentiate into various cell types (including: bone, cartilage, and muscles) and can modify or regulate immune functions.* |
