Treatment for multiple sclerosis (MS) is an evolving area and one in which new therapeutic approaches are rapidly advancing. Led by Dr. Saud Sadiq, the Tisch MS Research Center of New York is pursuing a Phase II clinical trial exploring the use of stem cell technology for the treatment for MS. The announcement followed positive results from an FDA-approved Phase I stem cell trial for MS. [Read more…]
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a well-characterized population of adult stem cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types (chondrocytes, osteoblasts, adipocytes, myocytes, and more).

Landmark MSC Trial for Parkinson’s Disease Authorized by U.S. FDA
April 28, 2021, SUGAR LAND, Texas — Houston-area non-profit Hope Biosciences Stem Cell Research Foundation (HBSCRF) has received FDA authorization for a Phase II double-blind placebo controlled clinical trial to assess the efficacy and safety of multiple intravenous infusions of autologous adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells to improve activities of daily living and quality of life in subjects with Parkinson’s Disease.
The trial is the first globally to administer pure adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells to Parkinson’s patients in such high quantities over repeat treatments. Twenty-four patients will be randomized to receive six intravenous infusions of 200 million stem cells each. [Read more…]
Horizon 2020 consortium funding to fuel cell therapy microcarrier development at denovoMATRIX
DRESDEN, Germany, April 29, 2021 — denovoMATRIX GmbH, a developer of technologies which enable high quality stem cell expansion, announced today that it will participate in the new European collaborative project funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.
5 Reasons to Use Biological Industries’ NutriStem® for Isolation and Growth of hMSCs
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are multipotent adult stem cells present in a variety of tissue niches within the human body. As multipotent cells, they can differentiate into a range of cell types, including osteoblasts, chondrocytes, myocytes, and adipocytes. In addition to secreting factors that can stimulate tissue repair, MSCs can substantially alter their microenvironment, exerting effects that are both anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic.
