Intra-arterial Injections of Cellular Therapy and Stem Cells
Intra-Arterial Injections of Cellular Therapy and Stem Cells
Intra-arterial injections are a specialized technique used at DrStemCellsThailand‘s Anti-Aging and Regenerative Medicine Center of Thailand to deliver Cellular Therapy and Stem Cells directly into the arterial circulation. This method allows for targeted treatment of various conditions, particularly in the context of organ-specific therapies, such as those for renal diseases.
Overview of Intra-Arterial Injections
Definition:
Intra-arterial injections involve administering therapeutic agents directly into an artery, allowing for localized delivery to specific tissues or organs. This approach is particularly beneficial for enhancing the efficacy of Cellular Therapy and Stem Cells by ensuring that a higher concentration of cells reaches the target area.
Purpose:
The primary goals of intra-arterial injections include:
- Targeted Delivery: Direct administration of stem cells or cellular therapies to specific organs, such as the kidneys, enhancing their regenerative potential.
- Improved Efficacy: Maximizing the therapeutic effects by concentrating the treatment in the desired area while minimizing systemic exposure.
- Facilitation of Regeneration: Promoting tissue repair and regeneration in conditions where traditional delivery methods may be less effective.
Applications in Renal Diseases
Chronic Kidney Diseases (CKD):
- Intra-arterial injections of renal progenitor stem cells (R-PSCs) target renal tubular epithelial cells to facilitate repair and regeneration of damaged kidney tissues.
- Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are delivered intra-arterially to mitigate the progression of diabetic nephropathy by targeting glomerular endothelial cells and podocytes.
- Promotion of renal tissue repair through targeted delivery of MSCs and R-PSCs to injured renal tubules, enhancing functional recovery.
Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD):
- Application of R-PSCs via intra-arterial injection to remodel cystic walls and inhibit cyst growth, preserving renal function.
- Targeted delivery of R-PSCs to glomerular cells aims to repair and regenerate the glomerular filtration barrier compromised by immune-mediated damage.
Renal Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury:
- Intra-arterial injections facilitate the delivery of Cellular Therapy and Stem Cells to restore renal function following ischemic injury by promoting tissue repair and reducing inflammation.
Benefits of Intra-Arterial Injections
- Localized Treatment: Provides direct access to target tissues, improving therapeutic outcomes.
- Reduced Systemic Side Effects: Minimizes exposure to non-target areas, reducing potential adverse effects associated with systemic administration.
- Enhanced Tissue Perfusion: Improves blood flow and nutrient delivery to damaged tissues, facilitating faster recovery and regeneration.
