Abstract
Currently there are two types of cell therapy under investigation with promising preliminary results. The first is based on transplantation of stem cells (hematopoietic or mesenchymal) and the second consists of the application of tolerogenic immune cells. Stem cell transplantation has already been applied in humans in multiple chronic autoimmune or inflammatory diseases, with positive results. However, treatment with tolerogenic immune cells is currently only under investigation in animal models.
