Humoral Influence of Repeated Lineage-Negative Stem/Progenitor Cell Administration on Articulatory Functions in ALS Patients

Abstract: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) remains a fatal, neurodegenerative disease frequently leading to dysarthria and impaired swallowing. Better understanding of ALS pathophysiology is prompting the use of humoral cell therapies. Hence, a repeated cellular therapy was applied to ALS patients as an attempt to prevent speech deterioration. Autologous bone marrow-derived lineage-negative (Lin−) cells were intrathecally administered three times at six-week intervals to 42 sporadic ALS patients. Patients were examin… Show more

“…The results of multiple clinical trials using BMSCs strongly suggest their important role in the process of tissue healing and regeneration [25,26]. These observations led to further application of BMSCs in the treatment of some diseases, including systemic and local treatment of inflammatory bowel disease [27] or neurological and heart disorders [25,28]. The phenomenon of BMSC mobilization and its role in tissues was also assessed in some oncological disorders, including animal studies on gastric cancer [14,15], and in patients with pancreatic cancer [2,12].…”

“…The improvement correlated with the neurotrophin release. The transient therapeutic effect indicated the injected cells death, and traced to the necessity to repeat the cell-based therapy to maintain its effect [30]. We have analysed CSF from two groups of patients (adults suffering from ALS and children suffering from drug-resistant autoimmune epilepsy) treated intrathecally with ADRC three times, every three months.…”
