Reprogramming Cells for Transplantation

Heart Failure Reviews, 2003
The field of tissue engineering, involving the reprogramming of stem cells or rejuvenation of specific differentiated cells, is emerging as a promising strategy to repair the damaged myocardium. The eventual goal is to be able to take a patient's own cells, expand them ex vivo, genetically engineer them to enhance specific properties, and then ...

NK cells and transplantation

Transplant Immunology, 2002
The requirement for cytotoxic T lymphocytes during allograft rejection is controversial. We have demonstrated that CD8+ T cells are not essential for allograft rejection or for the induction of apoptosis in two experimental models of transplantation. To determine candidate cells types which may play a role in the events leading to graft rejection, the ...

Liver transplantation and liver cell transplantation

Clinics and Research in Hepatology and Gastroenterology, 2012
Liver transplantation is nowadays the recognized treatment of many liver diseases and liver-based metabolic disorders in childhood. The indications are congenital cholestatic diseases, mainly biliary atresia, metabolic disorders and fulminant hepatic failure.

Germ Cell Transplantation

Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2005
Transplantation of male germ line stem cells from a fertile donor to the testis of an infertile recipient restores donor-derived spermatogenesis in the recipient testis. The resulting sperm pass the donor genotype to the offspring of the recipient. Germ cell transplantation helped to elucidate the biology of male germ line stem cells and their niche in

Cell transplantation for stroke

Annals of Neurology, 2002
AbstractCell transplantation has emerged as an experimental approach to restore brain function after stroke. Various cell types including porcine fetal cells, stem cells, immortalized cell lines, and marrow stromal cells are under investigation in experimental and clinical stroke trials.

Islet cell transplantation

Seminars in Pediatric Surgery, 2014
Islet transplantation has become a promising treatment for selected patients with type 1 diabetes. Here we provide an overview of the procedure including its history, the process of donor selection, and the techniques and procedures involved in a successful transplant.

Islet cell transplantation

Current Opinion in Organ Transplantation, 2008
The transplantation of human islets has come a long way since the first diabetic person became insulin independent in 1989. The advent of a steroid-free immunosuppressive protocol in 2000 resulted in most recipients becoming insulin independent and remaining so for a year. However, beta-cell function declines thereafter. Strategies to enhance the islet

Blood cell transplantation

Current Opinion in ONCOLOGY, 1995
Blood cell transplantation (BCT) is the procedure of choice for autologous bone marrow transplantation. In this paper we review the current status of BCT with emphasis on important recent advances. These include increasing knowledge of the biologic nature of mobilized blood cells and important evidence showing that very primitive cells are present in ...

Transplantation of fetal cells

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1991
Cellular transplantation is an attractive alternative to whole-organ transplantation when only a discrete function of the organ is deficient. Early fetal donor cells have an advantage because they engraft readily and do not cause graft-versus-host disease.

Dendritic Cells in Transplantation

1993
According to the passenger leukocyte concept, a subset of Ia-rich (MHC class II-positive) leukocytes, carried over to the recipient within transplanted organs, provides the primary stimulus for allograft rejection 1. This concept has important implications for transplantation, since it implies that the bulk of a transplanted tissue is weakly or non ...
