Core Tip |
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) progresses to end-stage renal disease, and it is often very difficult to retard its progression. Therefore, new and effective therapies for CKD are urgently needed. We administered granulocyte colony-stimulating factor-mobilized autologous CD34 positive cells directly into renal arteries. The progressive decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate improved after 1st cell therapy in three of four patients and was almost preserved after 2nd cell therapy. Although this was an exploratory small clinical trial, the results provide new insights in the field of regenerative medicine for progressive CKD. |
