Peripheral blood stem cell transplants are safer and easier for the donor and with contemporary graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, they don't appear to pose any additional GVHD risk for the ...

Autografting with peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) has largely replaced autologous bone marrow transplantation (BMT). PBSC may be preferred because of the easier collection and faster ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have broken new ground by generating over 400 types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab, far ...

Nerve cells are not just nerve cells. Depending on how finely we distinguish, there are several hundred to several thousand ...

Antonio Jimenez Jimenez, MD, discusses the ACCESS study using HLA-mismatched unrelated donors for peripheral blood and bone marrow stem cell transplants.

Scientists have successfully grown over 400 different types of nerve cells from stem cells in the lab—a groundbreaking step toward replicating the complexity of the human brain.

Cord blood is the blood in your baby's umbilical cord and your placenta. It houses potentially lifesaving cells called stem cells, which can develop into mature blood cells, including red blood cells, ...

Researchers have created over 400 distinct types of human nerve cells in vitro, vastly expanding the diversity available for ...

Posttransplant cyclophosphamide-based graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis enabled high 1-year overall survival in patients receiving peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplants from human ...
