Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and a composition for immune response inhibition in transplantation. SOLUTION: The method is one method to induce so as to reduce an immune response in a recipient by treating the recipient with a quantity of a fibroblast or a supernatant from a fibroblast culture substance effective to reduce or inhibit host rejection of a transplant. The fibroblast or the supernatant from the fibroblast culture substance is administered before, at the same time as, or after the transplantation. The method is effective in reducing the immune response to the transplant without compromising the immune response to other external antigen. Furthermore, a method to induce reducing the immune response against a host by external tissue, that is, graft versus host disease is disclosed. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
A method of reducing an immune response to a transplant in a recipient by treating said recipient with an amount of mesenchymal stem cells effective to reduce or inhibit host rejection of the transplant. The mesenchymal stem cells can be administered before, at the same time as, or after the transplant. Also disclosed is a method of inducing a reduced immune response against a host by foreign tissue, i.e., graft versus host disease, by treatment with mesenchymal stem cells.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method to modulate immune responses using antigen presenting human mesenchymal stem cells to induce specific T cell anergy. The present invention also provides a method to modulate immune responses using human mesenchymal stem cells as a platform to express molecules which will induce T cell anergy.
Abstract:
Methods and devices using non-autologous mesenchymal stem cells comprising treating a recipient in need thereof with an effective amount of non-autologous mesenchymal stem cells, including methods and preparations for treating and regenerating connective tissue and enhancing bone marrow engraftment in an individual; and for using genetically engineered allogeneic human mesenchymal stem cells that carry within them genes of interest particularly for the expression of physiologically or pharmacologically active proteins in gene therapy for correction of genetic disorders or "rebuilding" proteins important in tissue repair.
