Pluripotent stem cells take over from blood stem cells for future transplant therapies
Cells in the blood such as immune cells, red blood cells and other vital cell types are constantly renewed from stem cells, the so-called hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Certain diseases of the blood system, such as genetic disease or leukemias, can be effectively treated by stem cell transplants, but suitable, genetically matched donors are not always available. An alternative to obtaining cells from matched donors is their [Read More...]
