The Current Status of Stem-Cell Therapy in Erectile Dysfunction: A Review
Amanda B Reed-Maldonado,Tom F Lue 대한남성과학회 2016 The World Journal of Men's Health Vol.34 No.3
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that are capable of renewal and repair of tissue due to their capacity for division and differentiation. The purpose of this review is to describe recent advances in the use of stem cell (SC) therapy for male erectile dysfunction (ED). We performed a MEDLINE database search of all relevant articles regarding the use of SCs for ED. We present a concise summary of the scientific principles behind the usage of SC for ED. We discuss the different types of SCs, delivery methods, current pre-clinical literature, and published clinical trials. Four clinical trials employing SC for ED have been publi-shed. These articles are summarized in this review. All four report improvements in ED after SC therapy. SC therapy remains under investigation for the treatment of ED. It is reassuring that clinical trials thus far have reported positive effects on erectile function and few adverse events. Safety and methodical concerns about SC acquisition, preparation and delivery remain and require continued investigation prior to wide-spread application of these methods.
Prospects of stem cell treatment in benign urological diseases
Amjad Alwaal,Ahmed A. Hussein,Ching-Shwun Lin,Tom F. Lue 대한비뇨의학회 2015 Investigative and Clinical Urology Vol.56 No.4
Stem cells (SCs) are undifferentiated cells that are capable of self-renewal and differentiation and that therefore contribute to the renewal and repair of tissues. Their capacity for division, differentiation, and tissue regeneration is highly dependent on the surrounding environment. Several preclinical and clinical studies have utilized SCs in urological disorders. In this article, we review the current status of SC use in benign urological diseases (erectile dysfunction, Peyronie disease, infertility, and urinary incontinence), and we summarize the results of the preclinical and clinical trials that have been conducted.

To explore the ability of MaxPol-T/S, a novelbiodegradable poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid(PLGA) scaffold, in providing a cell-matrix interaction interface for cell growth, we generated GFP positive adipose derived stem cell(ADSCGFP+) and fibroblasts(FCGFP+) for investigating the cellular growth on this biomaterial. The MaxPol-T/S was produced through salt-leaching/particulate-leaching technology for tissue engineering, which provides a modified surface for the best cellular attachment sites and nutrient supply and waste exchange conditions. The morphological features of MaxPol-T/S were studied with a scanning electron microscope and the ADSCGFP+ and FCGFP+ were confirmed by auto-fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry assay. Being seeded onto the MaxPol-T/S in vitro, the growth and morphology of ADSCGFP+ and FCGFP+ were further verified by auto-fluorescence microscopy and MMT test. The ADSCs and fibroblasts, expressed strong GFP signals in the cytoplasm and nucleus, adhered and proliferated on the surface of scaffold MaxPol-T/S. Both cell lines survived on the scaffold more than 21 days in vitro and formed three-dimensional colonies on the surface of the MaxPol-T. In conclusion, MaxPol-T/S is a novel PLGA scaffold for ADSCGFP+ and FCGFP+ and implies a promising technique for tissue engineering.
