Año 2000: El año de las células madre
Terapia Celular y Medicina Regenerativa
• Curar con células
• Regenerar órganos y funciones
¿Qué son las células madre?
• Son células capaces de dividirse indefinidamente y diferenciarse en otros tipos de células especializados (reproducción asimétrica)
¿Qué son las células madre?
Stem cells
• Stem cells are cells that either self-renew by mitotic division or continue the differentiation pathway for which they have been programmed; thus, producing more adult functional tissues, perfectly differentiated according to their multipotential level
¿Dónde encontrar células madre?
En el blastocisto embrionario
Problemas para el uso clínico de células madre embrionarias
• Capacidad de inducción de tumores (Teratomas malignos)
• Rechazo (diferencias en los antígenos de histocompatibilidad entre embrión y receptor)
• Necesidad de inmunosupresión o “clonación terapétutica” (transferencia nuclear)
• Necesaria mucha tecnología (más costos) para el manejo
¿Dónde encontrar células madre?

▪ Adult SC found in almost every organ
▪ Limited proliferative and differentiation potential
▪ Not always functional in vivo
▪ No teratomas

Healing Control: a pending revolution
…Healing is a “cell-based” process
May a stem-cells supplement improve healing?
Stem Cells from Adipose TissueAdvantages
Adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells:
• Higher yield (between 100 and 1000 times higher yield than bone marrow)• BM stimulation is not required (G-CSF)
• Expendable and accessible: Simple liposuction• Biosafety: No chromosomal alterations/ tumorigenic behavior after long term ex vivo
cultures• Wide range of potential applications

Why?
Technical survey
We detect a large numbers of mistakes during the surgical procedure in “others hospitals”: use of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), cell shake, cells spilling..
• This is a “Living medicament” and hence a careful management is a key point.

“Living medicament”
Mesenchymal stem cells for fistula treatment is the first application of cell therapy that completed a whole course of clinical trials…
First in Human; A successful Phase III Clinical Trial in the field of Cell Therapy
2002-2016
Clinical Trial Process according to FDA
2002-2016
What we need to do in order to improve?
• Safety Profile Excellent
• DOSE INCREASE
• Cell Mortality• IMPROVING METHODS FOR DELIVERING
• Soft effects• CELL INGENIERING
• CELL EMPOWERING (FUCOSILACION, BMPs, SCAFFOLDS…)
NEXT GENERATION( Cells 2.0)
NEXT GENERATION( Cells 2.0)
• Cell transplantation to overcome healing problems seems to be a new surgical tool and careful evaluation of this new modality might provide an opportunity to define a new era in the treatment of surgical challenges associated with healing disorders.
Look to the future…
