Zero Tumor Risk, Zero Rejection: MUSE Cells Explained

[00:00:00]These cells have zero tumor risk.

[00:00:01][music] Even though they are similar to embryonic stem cells, they don't have the same kind of [music] tumorigenic potentials as embryonic stem cells. Even though they express [music] these pluripotency genes, but they naturally stop proliferation once the damaged tissue has been structurally [music] repaired. So, they know when to stop and not go haywire. If you do side-by-side comparison, they are able to survive better in inflamed [music] tissue. The harsher the environment, the more effective they're activated. And then, there's advantage over umbilical cord and adult MSCs [music] because they structurally can engraft into the host tissue and survive for months offering a true structural [music] reconstruction.

[00:00:45]Another beautiful thing about Muse cells is that they are immune-privileged.

[00:00:49][music] These Muse cells express specific surface markers that shield them from the recipient's immune system, meaning that they can be mass-produced and given to any patient without risk of rejection.
