Safety and biodistribution profile of placental-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (PLX-PAD) following intramuscular delivery.

26 May 2009 The administration of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) provides an exciting emerging therapeutic modality for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease, a condition that is associated with critical limb ischemia as its end stage. ... Read more...

Unintended changes in cognition, mood, and behavior arising from cell-based interventions for neurological conditions: ethical challenges.

29 Apr 2009 The prospect of using cell-based interventions (CBIs) to treat neurological conditions raises several important ethical and policy questions. In this target article, we focus on issues related to the unique constellation of traits that characterize ... Read more...

Mound calcification after endoscopic treatment of vesicoureteral reflux with autologous chondrocytes--a normal variant of mound appearance?

15 Apr 2009 PURPOSE: Endoscopic treatment of vesicoureteral reflux has gained popularity and is frequently used as a first-line therapy. Reports of potential long-term complications from this treatment modality are lacking. We review the development of mound ... Read more...
