Trapianto di cellule staminali
nelle malattie neuromuscolari:
     le distrofie muscolari
Distrofia Muscolare
     di Duchenne

E’ una malattia geneticamente
determinata X-linked dovuta all’assenza
di distrofina

•E’ caratterizzata da distrofia muscolare
progressiva con ipostenia muscolare
ingravescente e perdita della
deambulazione intorno a 12 anni.
Il trapianto di cellule staminali puo’
  contribuire alla rigenerazione del
     tessuto muscolare scheletrico

Eight DMD patients were included in this study and randomized into two
groups:
Group A (n=5; subjects 003-004-005-006-007)
AC133+cells injection into left abductor digiti minimi muscles (ADM)
Group B (n=3 subjects 008-009-010)
saline solution injection into ADM

Primary outcome: Tolerance and feasibility of intramuscular
transplantation of AC133+ cells to always ensure first, the
patient’s safety and well-being, while aiming towards a treatment.

Secondary outcome: muscular strength tests by MVIC and muscle
force analysis skinned myofibers.
