Hu-PHECs are a special sub-class of progenitor stem cell that generate hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs): bone marrow cells that give rise to all major types of blood cells. Hu-PHECs are thought to be cancer-free as they do not accumulate blood cancer-related mutations and/or chromosomal rearrangements. This makes them a perfect candidate for patient-specific, or autologous, bone marrow/HSC transplantations. This approach can potentially be used to treat blood cancers and auto-immune diseases with superior results. Importantly, it would remove the need to find a matching bone marrow donor, significantly expanding the number of patients who could be treated and it would also reduce the problem of transplant rejection which can occur under existing therapies.
