Lupus is one type of autoimmune disease that affects internal organs and the skin. This disease is not contagious and is not transmitted from person to person. The specific name of the disease was given due to the skin redness that occurs as a result of the disease. It was previously thought that these red patches resemble the skin reaction to a wolf bite. It is important to remember that lupus should not be confused with tuberculous lupus – these are completely different diseases.
The essence of the pathology is that allergic reactions of a certain type occur in the body, during which antibodies to its own tissues are formed, creating the impression that the patient is vaccinated against themselves. As a result, the immune system does not recognize proteins and attacks them as foreign bodies.
This disease is widespread and ranks third after diabetes and arthritis. Specialists still cannot determine the definitive cause of such pathologies. It is important to consult a doctor early to avoid irreversible consequences.
In modern medicine, transplanted stem cells are used to treat such autoimmune diseases. Treatment of lupus in Israel using new technologies has been practiced for a considerable time. A positive result is achieved because stem cells give rise to all elements of blood, allowing them to destroy harmful autoimmune cells and replace them with new healthy cells. This leads to the elimination of the inflammatory pathological process.
During cell therapy, materials from the patient themselves are used, minimizing the risk of infection with any infectious diseases. Treatment of lupus using stem cells in Israel is carried out in several stages. Using separators – special devices, material is taken from the patient to obtain stem cells. Blood filtration is conducted in laboratories to obtain the important therapeutic material. In the second stage, specialists conduct special therapy that completely suppresses the immune system. The final stage is the restoration of the immune system using stem cells introduced directly into the blood.
As a result of the treatment, the autoimmune pathology resolves.
