“…This approach has successfully induced tolerance to a diverse range of tissues, including kidney [242, 259, 265, 267–271], heart [245, 268], skin [245, 255], liver [272–275], trachea [251], and vascularized composite tissue allografts (CTA) [255, 257]. It has also successfully reversed autoimmune disorders including SLE [227, 231, 236, 237, 252, 260, 261, 276], Type I diabetes [239, 241, 244, 249, 250, 262], pemphigus vulgaris [276, 277], and experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (a preclinical model for multiple sclerosis) [235, 238, 247, 248, 260, 278]. However, results of clinical trials using HSC transplantation to treat “true” multiple sclerosis have been more mixed; some trials have reported very positive impact on clinical scores and disease progression [278–281], while others have found either no improvement at all, or perhaps even a worsening of neuroinflammation and demyelination following HSC transplant [282, 283].…”
