2. WHAT IS KIDNEY
FAILURE?
Kidney failure, or end-stage renal
disease (ESRD), is a significant health
challenge. It's a condition where the
kidneys lose their ability to filter waste
and excess fluid from the blood,
leading to a buildup of toxins.

3. CAUSES OF
KIDNEY FAILURE
Kidney failure can be caused by various
conditions that pressure the kidneys
over time. The two most common
causes are diabetes and high blood
pressure.

4. HOW CAN STEM CELLS
TREAT KIDNEY DISEASE?
In kidney disease, stem cell therapy
aims to reduce inflammation by
modulating the immune system,
additionally promoting the cells to
replace damaged kidney cells with new
ones, helping restore the kidney's
filtering function.

5. STEM CELL THERAPY
FOR KIDNEY DISEASE
Mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy (MSC)
offers a promising solution for kidney disease,
with extensive research supporting its potential in
this field. MSCs are multipotent cells that can be
sourced from various tissues and, when utilized
in therapy for kidney disease, can significantly
improve health-related quality of life compared to
dialysis.
