The results from a new study into treating atopic dermatitis (AD) – the most common form of eczema – suggest that mesenchymal stem cells are effective in combating AD symptoms.<\/span><\/p>\n

The phase 1\/2 trial, which aimed to treat patients suffering from moderate to severe AD symptoms, utilized human bone marrow-derived clonal mesenchymal stem cells (hcMSCs) which were delivered to patients via infusion.<\/span><\/p>\n

Researchers believe that this treatment method is highly promising in improving symptoms of the chronic condition, which is estimated to affect approximately 2.6% of the population (204 million people) worldwide. <\/span>[1]<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What is atopic dermatitis?<\/span><\/h3>\n

Atopic dermatitis, also known as atopic eczema, is a condition that causes the skin to become dry, cracked, and itchy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The most common form of eczema in children, atopic dermatitis is a long-term condition which can also arise for the first time during adulthood.<\/span><\/p>\n

The exact causes of AD remain unknown, though it\u2019s thought that it may run in families.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Environmental factors such as the use of certain soaps and cleaning products, the weather, and stress have been shown to be triggers for AD flare-ups, and those who suffer from AD often also suffer from hay-fever and asthma.<\/span><\/p>\n

Current treatment options for AD are limited, with the majority focusing on the alleviation or management of symptoms. Self-care practices, such as avoiding triggers and trying not to scratch, along with the use of moisturizers (emollients) and topical medicines are most commonly recommended to help combat AD symptoms. <\/span>[2]<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

In many cases, AD often improves over time, but the current lack of effective treatment options, in addition to the widespread prevalence of the condition and its impact on sufferers\u2019 quality of life, means that finding new ways to combat AD is imperative.<\/span><\/p>\n
