2. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematopoietic_stem_cell...

   Stem-cell transplantation was pioneered using bone marrow-derived stem cells by a team at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center from the 1950s through the 1970s led by E. Donnall Thomas, whose work was later recognized with a Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Thomas' work showed that bone-marrow cells infused intravenously could ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hematopoietic_stem_cell

   Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the transplantation of multipotent hematopoietic stem cells, usually derived from bone marrow, peripheral blood, or umbilical cord blood. [16] [17] [13] It may be autologous (the patient's own stem cells are used), allogeneic (the stem cells come from a donor) or syngeneic (from an identical twin).

   A bone marrow harvest in progress The preferred sites for the procedure. In a bone marrow transplant, hematopoietic stem cells are removed from a person and infused into another person or into the same person at a later time . If the donor and recipient are compatible, these infused cells will then travel to the bone marrow and initiate blood ...

8. National Marrow Donor Program - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Marrow_Donor_Program

   Bone marrow is extracted from the donor's pelvic bones while the donor is under general or local anesthesia. PBSCs are collected from the donor's blood after five or six days of taking a drug that causes hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow to move into the circulating blood. In both cases, recovery is usually swift and donors typically have ...

9. Stem-cell therapy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem-cell_therapy

   While it is thought that bone-marrow-derived stem cells are preferred for bone, cartilage, ligament, and tendon repair, others believe that the less challenging collection techniques and the multi-cellular microenvironment already present in adipose-derived stem cell fractions make the latter the preferred source for autologous transplantation ...
