Miracell announces psoriasis case cured with stem cell therapy

South Korean stem cell research company Miracell said Friday it had published 

the clinical trial results of a new regenerative skin stem cell therapy at a recent 

conference hosted by the International Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery held in Bangkok.

The clinical trial was conducted on a patient with psoriasis, a skin disease that is 

generally treated with steroids, but has a tendency to recur over time.

The patient was found to have completed recovered after receiving intravenous

injections with bone marrow stem cells and cells extracted from blood twice.

The treatment uses Miracell’s stem cell extraction system “Smart Emcell2,” 

and bone marrow and blood kits devised by the company.

"The patient was suffering from psoriasis for six years, having difficulties in leading 

a normal life due to the severity of the symptoms. But the patient could recover 

after being treated with the stem cell therapy,” said professor Park Eun-soo, 

one of the researchers who led the clinical trial.

Miracell CEO Shin Hyun-soon said the trial results could be successful due to the 

use of fresh cells with a survival rate of up to 99 percent.

"By developing better products, we will continue to try to give hope to 

suffering patients around the world."
