Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease marked by comparatively focal dopaminergic neuron degeneration in the substantia nigra of the midbrain and dopamine loss in the striatum, which causes motor and non-motor symptoms. Currently, pharmacological therapy and deep brain stimulation(DBS) are the primary treatment modalities for PD in clinical practice. While these approaches offer temporary symptom control, they do not address the underlying neurodegenerative process, and complications often arise. Stem cell replacement therapy is anticipated to prevent further progression of the disease due to its regenerative capacity, and considering the cost of immunosuppression and the potential immune dysfunctions, autologous stem cell transplantation holds promise as a significant method against allogeneic one to treat Parkinson's disease. In this review, the safety concerns surrounding tumorigenicity and complications associated with transplantation are discussed, along with methods utilized to evaluate the efficacy of such procedures. Subsequently, we summarize the preclinical and clinical studies involving autologous stem cell transplantation for PD, and finally talk about the benefits of autologous stem cell transplantation against allogeneic transplants.
