Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) is the transplantation of multipotent hematopoietic stem cells, usually derived from bone marrow, peripheral blood, or umbilical cord blood, in order to replicate inside a patient and produce additional normal blood cells. [1][2][3][4][5][6] HSCT may be ...
A savior sibling may be the solution for any disease treated by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.It is effective against genetically detectable (mostly monogenic) diseases, e.g. Fanconi anemia, [4] Diamond–Blackfan anemia [5] and β-thalassemia, in the ailing sibling, since the savior sibling can be selected to not have inherited the disease.
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells found in multiple human adult tissues, including bone marrow, synovial tissues, and adipose tissues. Since they are derived from the mesoderm, they have been shown to differentiate into bone, cartilage, muscle, and adipose tissue. [1][2] MSCs from embryonic sources have shown promise ...
Embryonic stem cells make up a significant proportion of a developing embryo, while adult stem cells exist as minor populations within a mature individual (e.g. in every 1,000 cells of the bone marrow, only one will be a usable stem cell). Thus, embryonic stem cells are likely to be easier to isolate and grow ex vivo than adult stem cells. [36]

On 18 May 2012, a heart revive centre was inaugurated at a cost of ₹ 300 million, with a full-fledged cathlab and an electro-physiology laboratory for the treatment of arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat. In the same year, the hospital started the MIOT International Centre housing the departments of oncology, radiation oncology, medical ...
