Cellular Therapies

Cell therapy (also called cellular transplantation, cell therapy, or cytotherapy) is a therapy in which possible cells are injected, implant or embed into a patient in order to effectuate a medicinal effect, for example, by transplanting T-cells capable of fighting cancer cells via cell-mediated immunity in the course of immunotherapy, or grafting stem cells to regenerate diseased tissues.

Cell therapy commenced in the nineteenth century when scientists experimented by injecting animal material in a try to prevent and treat illness. However, such try didn’t produced any  positive benefit, the next research was  found in the mid twentieth century that human cells could be used to help prevent the human body rejecting transplanted organs, leading in time to successful bone marrow transplantation has become common practice in treatment for patients that have compromised bone marrow after disease, infection, radiation or chemotherapy.
