Cord Blood and Tissue Research and Trials

There is an expanding range of research and clinical trials evaluating how cord blood and tissue stem cells may contribute to new therapies for a broad number of conditions.

Cord tissue research and trials 

Umbilical cord tissue is stored now with the intention that it may be used in the future for regenerative medicine therapies. Cord tissue is a rich source of mesenchymal stem cells that can regenerate cartilage, bone and other cell types. 

Although research using MSC’s is still at an early stage, the unique properties of these cells make them promising for future cellular therapies. There are numerous clinical studies looking at the role of MSC’s in a wide variety of conditions.
