Autologous bone marrow stem cell separation technology given to NCRM by Biotherapy institute of Japan was first successfully applied in the country by the NCRM-life line* team to a spinal cord injury patient and the first patient** who walked after 2 months after his arrival wheel chair bound in India (from Abudabhi where he met with spinal cord injury following a fall from 12 Mts) made several ailing patients approach us for treatment. This combination of a state-of-the-art GMP facility and Japanese technology of NCRM for stem cells isolation and processing with the highly skilled physicians of Life Line Hospital could continue to reproduce similar breakthrough developments in several patients following the first which happened in February 2007.

　

On the 12th of June four such patients with spinal cord injury who could stand up and/or walk from their wheel chairs were presented to the media.

　

With this positive outcome, the NCRM-Life line* team is also planning to start stem cell based therapies for Liver Cirrhosis, Parkinsons Disease and other diseases based on evidence.　

　

A NCRM’s balanced interest and involvement in both clinical applications*** as well as basic research (2 patents till date with more than 10 presentations in International meetings) has made it be listed one among the 107 global organizations (2 from India) with very good potentials for breakthrough in stem cell applications by 2010 by the Research and markets Inc of Ireland.

Immortal are our visions which we hope would keep immortal the hopes of many.

**The six month follow-up study of the case has been accepted for a presentation in the forthcoming meeting of the International Society for Cell Therapy to be held in Sydney between the 24th and 27th of June 2007.
