Adipose-derived Stem Cells Articles

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a distressing complication in men with diabetes mellitus (DM). This study aimed to investigate the effects of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) plus insulin on ED in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats.

BACKGROUND - Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men, and radical prostatectomy (RP) often results in erectile dysfunction (ED) and a substantially reduced quality of life. The efficacy of current interventions, principal treatment with PDE-5 inhibitors, is not satisfactory and this condition presents an unmet medical need.

Background: The improvement of absent or partial response in the medical treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) has led to the development of minimally invasive new treatment modalities in the field of regenerative medicine.

To assess the feasibility and the safety of treating female stress urinary incontinence (SUI) with suburethral implantation of a mixture of the stromal vascular fraction from adipose tissue and leukocyte-and platelet-rich-fibrin.

Background: The current treatment of Erectile Dysfunction (ED) is mainly based on the use of drugs that provide erections shortly after use but they do not really treat the problem. Stem cell therapy is a novel treatment with regenerative properties that can possibly treat erectile dysfunction.

The implantation of a suburethral sling is an important treatment for stress urinary incontinence (SUI). However, the slings used current have a number of inherent limitations, such as tissue rejection and infection.

We proposed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells to treat endoscopically urinary incontinence after radical prostatectomy in men or female stress urinary.

Injection of urethral bulking agents is a low-risk, minimally invasive surgical procedure to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI). In this study, we developed a promising injectable bulking agent comprising extracellular matrix fragments of adipose-derived stem cell sheets (ADSC ECM) and investigated its effectiveness in urethral bulking therapy.
