Article Synopsis
  • NK cells play a crucial role in cancer immune defense by providing a fast response to tumors, allowing for direct attacks on cancer cells without needing prior antigen recognition.
  • * Gamida Cell's NAM platform aims to boost the effectiveness of NK cells, particularly in treating multiple myeloma (MM) by targeting CD38, a protein common on MM cells.
  • * Researchers have used CRISPR technology to create genetically modified NK cells that lack CD38 and have enhanced abilities to target MM cells, achieving a significant reduction in self-destruction among NK cells during treatment.

The injection of placental stromal cells isolated from fetal human tissues (f-hPSC) was reported to indirectly induce tissue regeneration in different animal models. A procedure of f-hPSC isolation from fragments of both selected fresh or cryopreserved bulk placental neonate tissues is proposed, based on their high migratory potential,. The fragments of the desired fetal placental tissues are adhered to a culture dish by traces of diluted fibrin and covered with culture medium.
