Supporting the scientific and ethical research on stem cells taken from cord blood and placenta means to contribute to the development of the research in cell therapy and in regenerative medicine.

On the scientific side, cord blood stem cells have unique qualities which are particularly promising:

  • They have good skills of differentiation
  • They do not develop tumours after transplantation
  • They are immunologically “simple”, and this facilitates the success of the transplantation
  • They are currently used in medicine since 1988

THE ASSOCIATION “CORDON DE VIE” HAS BEEN CREATED TO TURN THE HOPES INTO REALITY.
