Yokoo T et al. - Currently many efforts are being made to apply regenerative medicine to clinical renal diseases. It has been suggested that some renal diseases which maintain renal structure can be treated by infusion of stem cells isolated from the bone marrow or adult kidney. However such cell-based therapy cannot be applied to the treatment of chronic renal disease, in which renal structure, including the kidney scaffold, is totally disrupted.
