Stem cell registry
The stem cell registry was first proposed in 1970 to match blood donors for transfusions. The first dedicated bone marrow registry was established in 1974 in the UK to find a donor for Anthony Nolan. While Anthony died without a transplant, the registry has helped many others. In 1989, the first global stem cell donor registry was formed with 8 registries and 150,000 donors. Stem cell registries maintain databases of voluntary donors to match with patients needing transplants. They play a vital role as thousands of Indian patients die each year due to the lack of matched donors within the country or in international registries.
ORGAN DONATION AWARENESS PPT
Organ donation involves removing organs or tissues from a living, dead, or recently deceased person for transplantation into another person. Organs that can be donated include the lungs, heart, liver, kidneys, intestines, and pancreas, while tissues include the cornea, skin, bone marrow, heart valves, middle ear, and more. In India, around 6,000 people die each day waiting for organ transplants, with a new person added to the waiting list every 13 minutes. Donating organs can save up to 50 lives, yet the need for organs is still huge.

2013 saving lives presentation online version
DKMS is the world's largest bone marrow donor center with over 3 million registered donors. It was founded in Germany in 1991 by Peter Harf after he lost his wife to blood cancer. DKMS has registered over 280,000 donors in the U.S., allowing over 650 patients to receive life-saving transplants. Bone marrow contains stem cells that can be transplanted to restore stem cells destroyed by chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Potential donors must be between 18-55, in good health, and pass a medical screening. If a match is found, the donor will provide stem cells through a peripheral blood donation or bone marrow surgery.

Know About Organ Donation
Organ donation involves donating biological tissues or organs from living or deceased donors to recipients in need of transplants. While it can save many lives, there is a large shortage of organs available for transplant globally and in India specifically. Effective organ donation programs require addressing issues like lack of public awareness, legal and ethical concerns, and ensuring transparency to prevent exploitation. Models like the one in Tamil Nadu aim to maximize cadaveric organ donation through a centralized allocation system and free transplants to reduce costs as barriers. Kerala has guidelines for organ donation but still faces challenges in identifying brain dead donors, public awareness, funding, and monitoring the program. Increased education and empathy could help address myths and shortages to benefit more patients.

2015 Annual Report_lowres2
This annual report summarizes the activities of the Bone Marrow Donor Registry and Cancer Support Services organization in 2015. It highlights that the organization facilitated close to 9,000 donor-patient matches and over 2,000 life-saving stem cell transplants. It also details the organization's global reach, with transplants facilitated across 47 countries. The report emphasizes the growing need for stem cell transplants and calls for continued support to expand the donor registry and cancer support services.
Organ donation
Organ donation can save lives by providing organs and tissues to those in need of transplants. There is a large gap between the number of people needing transplants and the number of available organs. Becoming an organ donor is important as it allows one's organs to help others after death. There are various ways to register as a donor and ensure family is aware of one's wishes to donate. Medical professionals prioritize saving patients' lives and donation is only considered after death when all efforts to save a life have been exhausted.
Organ donation
Gavin was an 11-month old boy who was born with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency and needed an emergency liver transplant. He died while waiting for a donor liver. Organ donation can save many lives, as a single donor's organs may help up to 6 people through transplantation and over 50 people through tissue donation. However, over 80,000 people in the US are currently on organ transplant waiting lists and thousands die each year before receiving an organ. Most major religions support organ donation as a charitable act that can save lives.

Umbilical Cord Blood Donation: Implications for the Obstetrician
Cord blood is a rich source of stem cells that can be used for transplantation. It has several advantages over bone marrow, including an unlimited supply, greater ethnic diversity to find matches, and lower rates of graft-versus-host disease. While private cord blood banking has limitations, public banking increases access and is more cost effective. Cord blood transplantation has been used successfully to treat over 80 diseases, and research is exploring additional applications in regenerative medicine. Obstetricians play a key role in educating patients about cord blood banking options.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

MERCURY GROUP.BHMS.MATERIA MEDICA.HOMOEOPATHY
Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.

- 8. Bone marrow donation is a surgical procedure in which liquid marrow is withdrawn from the back of the donor's pelvic bones using special, hollow needles. General or regional anesthesia is always used, so donors feel no needle injections and no pain during marrow donation. Most donors may feel some pain in their lower back for a few days afterwards. Peripheral blood cell (PBSC) donation involves removing a donor's blood through a sterile needle in one arm. The blood is passed through a machine that separates out the cells used in transplants. The remaining blood is returned through the other arm.
- 9. New Project In committees, members are free to create their own projects and suggest ideas. Anything that is a national project can be proposed and can be led by yourselves with the help of the committee and the club. What would YOU like to see Rotaract do?
