Cell suspension consisting of cells from immature nervous and hemopoietic tissues was subarachnoidally transplanted to 10 patients with brain stroke consequences. Clinical effect of different degree was attained in all patients. Six months after cell therapy functional activity significantly increased in contrast to clinically comparable control group. No serious complications of cell therapy were observed. Presumably, cell therapy is a more or less safe method of treatment, which can be effectively used in the treatment of brain stroke consequences.
Cell suspension consisting of cells from immature nervous and hemopoietic tissues was transplanted subarachnoidally to patients with craniocerebral injury aftereffects. In some patients cell therapy led to immune sensitization to donor antigens, detected by the leukocyte migration inhibition test. No signs of tissue-destructive autoimmune reactions were detected in patients receiving cell therapy. Follow-up of 56 patients showed that cell therapy was associated with significant improvement of the neurological status. No serious complications of this treatment modality were observed. Presumably, cell therapy is a safe method which can be used in the treatment of craniocerebral injury aftereffects.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
