Immunotherapie and Immunology news
The spinal cord is an important component of our central nervous system: it connects the brain with the rest of the body and plays a crucial part in coordinating our sensations with our actions. Falls, violence, disease—various forms of trauma can cause irreversible damage to the spinal cord, leading to paralysis, sometimes even death.

Preclinical research from The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center finds that although glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) can be targeted by natural killer (NK) cells, they are able to evade immune attack by releasing the TFG-β signaling […]
Read More »Stroke is an abrupt interruption of constant blood flow to the brain that causes loss of neurological function, there are 3 types: a blocked artery (ischemic stroke) or leaking or bursting of a blood vessel (hemorrhagic stroke) and transient ischemic attack (TIA also known as a mini stroke ). Different factors can lead to a stroke: high blood pressure, high […]
Read More »Researchers have designed a new bioink which allows small human-sized airways to be 3D-bioprinted with the help of patient cells for the first time. The 3D-printed constructs are biocompatible and support new blood vessel growth into the transplanted material. This is an important first step towards 3D-printing organs.

Read More »Intravenous injection of bone marrow derived stem cells (MSCs) in patients with spinal cord injuries led to significant improvement in motor functions, researchers from Yale University and Japan report Feb. 18 in the Journal of Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery.
Read More »There is an ongoing critical need to improve therapeutic strategies for COVID-19 pneumonia, particularly in the most severely affected patients. Adult mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) infusions have the potential to benefit critically ill patients with acute respiratory syndrome SARS-COV-2 infection, but clinical data supporting efficacy are lacking.
Read More »Most infected people will develop mild to moderate illness and recover without hospitalization having common symptoms such as dry cough, tiredness and light fever. Patients affected with a severe illness due to Sars-Cov-2 usually have difficulty breathing, chest pain or pressure, loss of speech or movement. Latest Stem Cells treatments showed promising results when medication […]
