Lupus Nephritis is the most serious complication of systemic lupus
erythematosus (SLE). Main cause of death in Lupus Nephritis patients is Renal
Failure. Conventional therapies for Lupus Nephritis are often unable to control
the progression of nephritis. A new therapy for Lupus Nephritis -Stem Cell
Transplantation appears.
Pre-Stem Cell Transplantation
Pretreatment before Stem Cell Transplantation is performed: Pretreatment aims
to make receptor receive hemapoiesis and reduce the burden of cancer cell.
Both receptor and donor have the matching Human Leucocyte Antigen( HLA)
There must be a large of hemapoiesis: It is not difficult to understand. As
seed cells, stem cells need suitable soil to plan, grow, flower and fruit. The
process of growth is not smooth during which there must be stem cell dying. So a
large of stem cells is needed.
The process of Stem Cell Transplantation for Lupus Nephritis
Firstly, hemapoiesis in Bone marrow is released into blood and then a large
of hemapoiesis is gained by the blood cell separator. With technology
developing, we only need to collect 50-200mg Peripheral Blood which can provide
enough hemapoiesis.
Effects of Stem Cell Transplantation for Lupus Nephritis
There are no side effects by Stem Cell Transplantation. Due to the
reconstruction of immune system, stem cells treating Lupus Nephritis is able to
avoid recurring of the condition achieving the goal of treating Lupus Nephritis
fundamentally.A number of clinical trails show that Stem Cell Transplantation
for Lupus Nephritis has good curative effects which can fundamentally block
renal fibrosis and repair damaged renal cells. At present, Stem Cell
Transplantation is the best approach to treat Lupus Nephritis.
