| Core Tip |
Stem cell-based therapies, particularly autologous stem cell therapy, hold strong promise for treating age-related degenerative diseases by reducing risks of immune rejection and graft-vs-host disease. However, the therapeutic efficacy of patient-derived stem cells is often compromised by aging and disease-related decline in their regenerative capacity. To address these limitations, several strategies have been developed, including hypoxic preconditioning, genetic modification, growth factor supplementation, three-dimensional culturing, hybrid approaches, use of bioactive compounds, mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes, targeted activation of signaling pathways and cryopreservation of youthful stem cells. These approaches aim to restore or preserve stem cell functionality, enhancing therapeutic outcomes in elderly patients. |
