RT Conference Proceedings T1 Use of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell exosomes for ependymal repair and edema reduction in posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus treatment A1 Lopez-de-San-Sebastian, Javier A1 Rodríguez-Pérez, Luis Manuel A1 Anguita-Guardia, Alba A1 Jiménez-Lara, Antonio Jesús A1 Páez-González, Patricia K1 Líquido cefalorraquídeo - Congresos K1 Epéndimo - Congresos AB Germinal matrix hemorrhages and intraventricular hemorrhages (GMH/IVH) often lead to posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus (PHH), a severe cause of morbidity and mortality in premature neonates. GMH/IVH disrupts the ependyma, which acts as a functional and physical barrier between the cerebrospinal fluid and the brain tissue. As a consequence, cerebrospinal fluid circulation and physiology are severely affected; and thus, makes ependyma a chiefly important target when it comes to designing PHH treatments. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are extremely effective anti-inflammatory agents which have already shown positive results in PHH treatment. However, there is no current therapy to recover the ependyma in humans.
