What is Stem Cell Therapy?

Stem cell therapy is a non-invasive treatment that aims to replace damaged cells within the body. Mesenchymal stem cell therapy can be deployed systemically via IV or injected locally to target specific sites, depending on patient needs. What is stem cell therapy? Stem cell therapy is a form of regenerative medicine designed to repair damaged…

Stem Cell Therapy for COVID-19

Cord tissue-derived MSCs (Mesenchymal Stem Cells), have been shown to improve post-acute COVID-19 symptoms by significantly decreasing inflammatory cytokines, modulating the immune system, and improving recovery times. Can stem cells help COVID-19 Patients? Since the COVID-19 pandemic began there have been many studies conducted that aim to determine the safety and explore the efficacy of…

Mesenchymal Stem Cells & the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB)

Modern studies suggest that Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) when administered intravenously, can cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) leading to various regenerative effects. Do mesenchymal stem cells administered via IV cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB)? Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) intrinsically possess unique features that help them migrate towards areas of inflammation.  MSCs secrete various types of…

Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy for Severe COVID-19

A recent research article published in “Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy” conducted by Lei Shi et al. has summarized the recent progress of mesenchymal stem cell therapy for COVID-19 and highlighted that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can serve as a therapeutic tool to regulate the overactive inflammatory response caused by COVID-19. The coronavirus disease, still…
