Safety and immunological responses to human mesenchymal stem cell therapy in difficult-to-treat HIV-1-infected patients

Abstract

umbilical cord-MSC transfusions are well tolerated and can efficiently improve host immune reconstitution in INRs, suggesting that such treatments may be used as a novel immunotherapeutic approach to reversing immune deficiency in HIV-1-infected INRs (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01213186).
