Is Immunotherapy Helpful for the Patients on Dialysis
Dialysis is an important replacement therapy for the patients with End Stage Renal Failure. It can take over a portion of the kidney function to remove the excess fluid and macromolecular metabolic substances from blood. It can not be denied that dialysis plays a crucial role in maintain the patients’ life. However, at the same time, dialysis carries high risk of developing complications and side effects. It disorders the patients’ routine activity and many of them have to quit their jobs after dialysis. What’s worse, they have to endure a series of complications like heart disease, infection, nausea and so on.
Therefore, many patients are eager to find a better therapy to avoid dialysis. With the development of regenerative medicine development, Immunotherapy makes it possible to get rid of dialysis.
If you are a patient started dialysis recently and still have urine output, it is possible for you to get rid of dialysis by Immunotherapy.
Immunotherapy refers to infusion healthy cells to the patients’ body to replace the impaired cells to function. Immunotherapys are primitive cells in human body with multi-differentiation and regeneration abilities. The characteristics of Immunotherapy maintain the human body’ growth and development and also makes restoring the impaired renal function come true.
Our kidneys function depending on their renal functional cells. However, once the cells are impaired or necrotic, the kidneys will not be able to work well. Therefore, to improve renal function, recovering the function of the damaged and necrotic cells is the crucial step to the improvement of the renal function and makes the patients get rid of dialysis.
Under right condition, Immunotherapy can differentiate into new renal functional cells to replace the necrotic ones to function. In addition, the Immunotherapy also can release some growth factors to stimulate the self-repairing of the impaired cells.
If the renal functional cells can get repaired very well, the renal function will improve greatly. In this way, the patients on dialysis will be able reduce their dialysis frequency and even get rid of it.
