Mayo Clinic scientists pioneer immunotherapy technique for autoimmune diseases
Mayo Clinic scientists have developed an immunotherapy strategy that potentially lays the groundwork for treating a spectrum of autoimmune diseases.
The new technique, detailed in a preclinical study published in Nature Biomedical Engineering, involves combining chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) with mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC), resulting in engineered stem cells known as CAR-MSCs. (Source: World Pharma News)

Study documents safety, improvements from stem cell therapy after spinal cord injury
ROCHESTER, Minn. — A Mayo Clinic study shows stem cells derived from patients' own fat are safe and may improve sensation and movement after traumatic spinal cord injuries. The findings from the phase 1 clinical trial appear in Nature Communications. The results of this early research offer insights on the potenti al of cell therapy for people living with spinal cord injuries and paralysis for whom options to improve function are extremely limited. In the study… (Source: Mayo Clinic Research News)

‘This person saved her’: the cancer patients in need of a stem cell donor match
Four in 10 UK patients do not find a match and those from non-white backgrounds find it more difficultPete McCleave first heard about stem cells during his sciences degree in the 1990s. “I knew about them, I just didn’t know what they could be used for,” he says. “It all sounded very pie in the sky.” It wasn’t until two decades later when McCleave was diagnosed with myeloma blood cancer that he came across stem cells again. This time, he needed them to save his life.“I was told that really the only chance I have, the best chance I have in seeing beyond the seven years I was given [to live] was finding a stem ...
