Medical School researchers John E. Wagner, MD, and Jakub Tolar, MD, Ph.D., have for the first time used stem cells from bone marrow to repair the skin of patients with a fatal skin disease called recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, or RDEB (EB). This is the first time researchers have shown that bone marrow stem cells can home to the skin and upper gastrointestinal tract and alter the natural course of the disease

Cellonis Diabetes Stem Cell Therapy: A Chance for Insulin Independence and the Reversal of Complications
BEIJING, June 24 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Cellonis, a Beijing and HK-based biotech company, with its new personalized diabetes treatment concept has demonstrated an amazing improvement in their treated patients' conditions. The ongoing clinical study shows the treatment's best case could reconstruct a patient's natural insulin production and even reverse later complications like kidney failure. Treated patients may have the chance to return to the normal activities non-diabetes sufferers take for granted.
The clinical study, jointly conducted by scientists and doctors of the Cellonis clinical research team, aims to help patients be free from insulin and oral drugs, by reconstructing their natural insulin production damaged by either autoimmune disorder (T1DM) or hyperglycemia and also improve insulin sensitivity (T2DM). Using injections of autologous stem cells from the patient's bone marrow, the research team believes that this therapy could help patients return to a life without annoying everyday injections and drugs.
"Most of the patients in our clinical study are now taking less synthetic insulin or oral drugs for BG control," says Dr. Chase Dai, Chief Medical Officer at Cellonis. "We appear to have restored the biological insulin producing function of the body. We are excited to see that some patients have been treatment-free for five months now, and we believe the effect of the stem cell therapy can last much longer. We were also encouraged by some other happy surprises during the clinical study.
"For example, this therapy appears to reverse chronic kidney failure. It was a surprise for all of my team to observe that the kidney function of a 75- year-old patient improved remarkably."
This patient had suffered from diabetes for years, gradually developing diabetic foot and nephropathy. He can now walk freely after having been confined to bed or a wheelchair for six months, and his quality of life has improved significantly. Moreover, he only needs kidney dialysis one time a week instead of three times. In a follow-up visit he excitedly told us that he was hopeful that in the near future he could be completely rid of diabetes.
Diabetes, an increasingly spreading disease, can lead to life-threatening diseases such as blindness, amputation, strokes, or kidney failure in its natural course. Current treatments, including insulin, cannot change this situation.
"We believe that our stem cell therapy will bring promising hope for patients suffering from diabetes and its complications," comments Cindy Hao, CEO of Cellonis. "Personalized diabetes therapies for patients of various conditions will be developed by Cellonis in the near future. We believe what we have restored for patients will not only be their natural insulin production, but also a normal life filled with the activities non-diabetes sufferers can enjoy daily."
Cellonis Biotechnologies focuses on R&D and the clinical application of novel personalized stem cell therapies and immunotherapies for patients with diseases including cancer, diabetes and central nervous system disorders.
Unproven treatment results in mysterious masses.
David Cyranoski
In a stark reminder that stem-cell therapy is uncharted territory, a stem-cell transplant given to a patient in Thailand who had kidney disease resulted in the development of cellular masses not previously reported. The lesions, described in a paper published online on 17 June in the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, were not directly linked to the patient's subsequent death (D. Thirabanjasak et al. J. Am. Soc. Nephrol. doi:10.1681/ASN.2009111156; 2010).
With hundreds of poorly regulated clinics that offer unproven stem-cell therapies now running, notably in China and Thailand, the episode is a warning to patients who may be considering such treatment.
The patient had lupus nephritis, in which the immune system attacks the kidneys. In 2006, she underwent a procedure at a private clinic in which her own haematopoietic stem cells — which can develop into any type of blood cell — were injected into her kidneys. Details of the clinic and the rationale behind the treatment have not been released.
“She didn’t get any better from stem cells, we can say that.”
Haematopoietic stem cells have been used to treat lupus nephritis with some reports of success. But they are usually injected into the bloodstream, not the kidney, in an attempt to 'reset' the immune system.
Six months later, the patient complained of pain and blood in the urine. Imaging studies revealed a four-centimetre mass on her left kidney and smaller masses in the kidney, liver and adrenal gland. Doctors at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok removed the kidney, believing a malignant tumour to be present. But further analysis showed that it was something else.
"I had never seen anything like it," says Paul Thorner, a pathologist at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Canada, who has a joint position at Chulalongkorn University (thailand) and was a co-author on the paper. Thorner coined a term — angiomyeloproliferative — to describe the proliferation of blood-vessel and bone-marrow cells the team found.
Patients are undergoing other experimental stem-cell therapies, but there is usually little follow-up to establish safety or efficacy. In one case reported last year, a boy treated with fetal stem cells at a Russian clinic developed tumours in his brain and spinal cord. In the Thai case, no post-mortem was carried out, as far as Thorner is aware, so his team could work only on the removed kidney. It is not known whether the smaller masses were linked to the main mass, or what would have happened had the patient not died from other complications. "She didn't get any better from stem cells, we can say that," says Thorner, who may try to reproduce the masses in animal experiments.
