Cell Therapy
Cell therapy is a medical treatment that uses living cells to repair or replace damaged tissues and organs. This approach can involve using cells from the patient’s own body, known as autologous cells, or cells from a donor, referred to as allogeneic cells. The goal is to restore normal function in areas affected by diseases, injuries, or genetic disorders.
One common type of cell therapy is stem cell therapy, which utilizes stem cells that have the potential to develop into various cell types. This therapy is being researched and applied in treating conditions like cancer, diabetes, and heart disease, offering new hope for patients with limited treatment options.
