Preferred Label : Autologous Pluripotent ALDHbr Stem Cells ALD-451;
NCIt synonyms : Aldehyde Dehydrogenase-Bright Cells; ALD-451 Bright Cells;
NCIt definition : A specific population of autologous, pluripotent bone marrow derived cells that express
high levels of the cytosolic enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) with potential protective
and neuro-cognition improving activity. Expression of high levels of ALDH is an indicator
of the biological activity in heterogenous early stage stem cells. Upon intravenous
administration, these ALDH bright cells may protect normal cells and may repair damaged
cells. These cells may also protect brain cells from damage and may improve neurocognition.;
