Everyone has heard about the exciting possibilities of stem cell research and stem cell treatment. Umbilical cord stem cells have been used to treat more than 70 illnesses including such life-threatening conditions as leukemia and lymphoma. Although cord stem cells are easy to harvest and cryopreserve, there are insufficient stem cells in umbilical cord blood to yield enough to treat an adult. Additionally, these cord cells can only be harvested at birth.
Exciting new research, described here in this CryoCell Press Release , indicates that adding stem cells harvested from menstrual blood to cord blood stem cells significantly increased the number of progenitor cells. Progenitor cells are the cells that grow into mature blood cells.
Cryo-Cell is the company that introduced the Celle system by which women can collect and store their menstrual blood stem cells in case of a future medical need by them or first-degree relatives. This service takes what was once regarded as mere biological waste and preserves it for use in potentially life-saving treatments.
This new research is an exciting new strategy for expanding the yield of cord stem cells that may be utilized to treat serious medical conditions.
