Autoimmune diseases that are resistant to conventional treatment cause severe morbidity and even mortality. In the present study we demonstrate that complete remissions can be achieved in refractory polychondritis and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), even at advanced stage, with the use of autologous stem-cell transplantation (SCT). Remissions persisted after reconstitution of the immune system. In the treatment of advanced systemic sclerosis (SSc), stable disease may be achieved with autologous SCT.
对传统治疗有抗性的自身免疫性疾病会导致严重发病甚至死亡。在本研究中,我们证明,使用自体干细胞移植(SCT),即使在晚期,难治性多软骨炎和系统性红斑狼疮(SLE)也可实现完全缓解。免疫系统重建后缓解仍持续存在。在晚期系统性硬化症(SSc)的治疗中,自体SCT可实现病情稳定。
