How Stem Cell Treats Hypertensive Nephropathy

Kidney is an organ which can adjust blood pressure. In turn, high blood pressure can also lead damage to kidney. In clinic, we call the damage in kidney structure and function which is caused by high blood pressure Hypertensive Nephropathy. There is no doubt that controlling blood pressure is good method which can prevent kidney disease. However, in modern times, there is an increasing number of people who are suffering from Hypertensive Nephropathy. Hypotensor has proved that is not enough to control the condition. So in recent years, stem cell transplant becomes a brand new therapy used to treat Hypertensive Nephropathy.
Taking advantage of its self-renewing and multiple-differentiation potential, stem cell is transplanted into Hypertensive Nephropathy patients’ body, which has achieved good effect in clinic. After stem cell enters patients’body, the nidus of the kidney will send a signal and attract stem cell. After stem cells enter into nidus, it will produce a large amount of offsprings, and these cells cam form kinds of renal cells and even tissues, thus improving the renal micro blood circulation, decrease the blood pressure inside of the renal glomeruli,relieve the insufficiency of blood and oxygen in the kidney, thus reviving renal function.
In addition, the active factors which are produced by stem cells can also secrete erythropoietin, which can promote the generation of red blood cells, which can relieve anemia.
What’s more, stem cell can also adjust immune, making immune system turn normal thus recovering renal function.
According to cytology, Hypertensive Nephropathy is a disease, the damage of which takes place in renal glomerular endothelial cell. Stem cell can repair the damaged intrinsic endothelial cells.
Generally, before stem cell is applied, Hypertensive Nephropathy apply Chinese Medicine first, the main purpose of which is to create a favorable environment for the growth of stem cell.
Chinese Medicine is actually traditional Chinese medicine, which has a micro-process in contrast, thus making it absorbed easily.The active materials can also repair the damaged intrinsic cells, thus improving the insufficiency of blood and oxygen in the kidney.
Last but not least, we suggest that the combination of stem cell and Chinese Medicine should be applied together, which can achieve a better effect.
