A bone marrow transplant replaces a person’s faulty bone marrow stem cells with healthy ones from a related it unrelated HLA-matched donor. Bone marrow is the spongy tissue inside bones that produce red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. When the body fails to produce cells a transplant is needed. 

Before the transplant, high doses of chemotherapy and possibly radiation are used to destroy the patient’s existing faulty stem cells and suppress the immune system. Then healthy blood stem cells are infused into the patients’ bloodstream where they travel to the bone tissues and develop into new healthy marrow cells. The process is similar to a blood transfusion. 

8. How are bone marrow stem cells used for treatment?

Healthy stem cells are extracted from the donor’s bone marrow and then infused into the recipient. These infused cells travel through the bloodstream to the bone marrow where they develop into new, healthy marrow cells.
