Innovations in cell therapy in pediatric diseases: a narrative review.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objective

Stem cell therapy is a regenerative medicine modality that has the potential to decrease morbidity and mortality by promoting tissue regeneration or modulating the inflammatory response. An increase in the number of clinical trials investigating the efficacy and safety of stem cell therapy in pediatric diseases has led to advancements in this field. Currently, multiple sources and types of stem cells have been utilized in the treatment of pediatric diseases. This review aims to inform researchers and clinicians about preclinical and clinical stem cell therapy trials in pediatric patients. We discuss the different types of stem cells and the wide spectrum of stem cell therapy trials for pediatric diseases, with an emphasis on the outcomes and advancements in
