BMT beats autoimmune diseaseRobert Krance
& Malcolm BrennerTexas Children's Cancer Center, Center for Cell and Gene Therapy, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas 77030, USA. email: rakrance@msmail.his.tch.tmc.edu Early clinical trial results show that bone marrow stem cell transplantation for patients with severe autoimmune disease is safe and effective.
