How are the cells transplanted in a patient?
Posted in Frequently Asked Questions |
Depending on the type of treatment required, the cells can be injected into the veins, arteries, in the spinal fluid, subcutaneous, or directly into joints or organs. All these elements are considered minimally invasive methods for the introduction of stem cells.
Stem cells injected intravenously are known to "seek and find" zones of tissue damage and migrate to the site of injury, providing regenerative healing. Stem cells injected intravenously have been shown to have the ability to cross the "blood-brain barrier", entering the central nervous system and the repair can be identified after several months in the patient's body after transplantation.
