Enfeksiyonlar nedeniyle kronik böbrek hastalığı için kök hücre terapileri
Introduction to Stem Cell Therapies for Chronic Kidney Disease
Kronik Böbrek Hastalığı (CKD) is a global health concern affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Infections are a significant cause of CKD, leading to irreversible kidney damage and often requiring dialysis or kidney transplantation. Stem cell therapies have emerged as a promising approach for treating CKD due to infections, offering the potential for tissue regeneration and functional recovery.
Types of Stem Cells Used in Chronic Kidney Disease Treatment
Various types of stem cells have been investigated for CKD treatment, içermek:
- Embriyonik kök hücreler (Escler): Derived from early-stage embryos, ESCs have the potential to differentiate into all cell types in the body.
- İndüklenen pluripotent kök hücreler (IPSC'ler): Reprogrammed from adult cells, iPSCs possess similar properties to ESCs.
- Mezenkimal kök hücreler (MSC'ler): Found in various tissues, MSCs have the ability to differentiate into bone, kıkırdak, and fat cells.
- Renal progenitor cells (RPCs): Derived from the developing kidney, RPCs can differentiate into various kidney cell types.
