Lymphomas
NORMAL BLOOD LYMPHOMAS Lymphomas are cancers originating in the lymphatic system, an integral part of the immune system. This includes the lymph nodes, spleen, thymus gland, and bone marrow. Causes The exact cause of lymphomas is unclear. They develop when lymphatic cells undergo DNA mutations, resulting in unregulated growth and division. These cells form tumors […]
Small Intestine cancer
HEALTHY SMALL INTESTINE SMALL INTESTINE CANCER Small intestine cancer is relatively rare and affects the small intestine. It often starts in the lining cells of the small intestine, with higher incidences linked to conditions like Crohn’s disease, celiac disease, and genetic syndromes. Causes The specific cause of small intestine cancer is not clear. It occurs […]
Stomach cancer
HEALTHY STOMACH STOMACH CANCER Stomach cancer, or gastric cancer, impacts the stomach and is a leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. It typically begins in the stomach lining cells, with higher rates related to diet, smoking, and Helicobacter pylori infection. Causes The precise cause of stomach cancer is not known. Stomach cancer arises when stomach […]
Kidney cancer
HEALTHY KIDNEY KIDNEY CANCER Kidney cancer affects the kidneys and is relatively common. It usually starts in the lining of the small tubes within the kidneys, with higher rates connected to smoking, obesity, and hypertension. Causes The root cause of kidney cancer remains unknown. It occurs when kidney cells mutate in their DNA, leading to […]
Bladder Cancer
HEALTHY BLADDER BLADDER CANCER Bladder cancer impacts the bladder and is among the more common cancers globally. It generally begins in the cells lining the bladder, with higher occurrences associated with smoking, chemical exposures, and chronic bladder conditions. Causes The exact cause of bladder cancer is not fully understood. Bladder cancer develops when bladder cells […]
Ovarian cancer
HEALTHY OVARIAN OVARIAN CANCER Ovarian cancer affects the ovaries and is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths in women globally. It primarily starts in the cells of the ovaries, with higher rates linked to factors like genetics, age, and hormone therapy. Causes It’s not exactly clear what causes ovarian cancer. Ovarian cancer occurs […]
Esophageal Cancer
ESOPHAGUS ESOPHAGEAL CANCER ESOPHAGEAL CANCER Esophageal cancer, affecting the tube from throat to stomach, is the sixth leading global cause of cancer deaths. It primarily starts in the esophageal lining cells, with higher rates in regions linked to factors like tobacco, alcohol, nutrition, and obesity. It’s not exactly clear what causes esophageal cancer. Esophageal cancer […]
Autoimmune disease
RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS Rheumatoid arthritis: Studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cells can modulate the immune response, reduce joint inflammation and promote cartilage regeneration in animal models of rheumatoid arthritis and in clinical trials, which may result in a decrease in symptoms and disease progression. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE): Mesenchymal stem cells have shown immunomodulatory and […]
Cardiovascular diseases
HEALTHY HEART CONGESTIVE HEARTH FAILURE Benefits of mesenchymal stem cells in cardiovascular diseases: Myocardial infarction (heart attack): Mesenchymal stem cells have shown ability to improve cardiac function, promote angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) and reduce scar tissue in animal models of myocardial infarction and in clinical trials, which could improve recovery and cardiac function […]
Neurological disorders
PARKINSON’S DISEASE MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS Benefits of mesenchymal stem cells in neurological and neurodegenerative diseases: Parkinson’s disease: Studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cells can promote the regeneration of dopaminergic neurons, decrease inflammation and improve motor function in animal models of Parkinson’s disease and in human clinical trials. Cerebrovascular (stroke) sequelae: Mesenchymal stem cells have shown […]
