Leukapheresis, focuses on collecting white blood cells (WBCs), with the remaining blood components returned to the donor. Research use only (RUO) leukopaks can be utilized to develop therapeutics in the fields of transplant therapy, cell therapy, and regenerative medicines to treat various cancers, immune disease, metabolic diseases, neurodegenerative disease, and a wide spectrum of other diseases.
Mobilized Leukopaks are apheresis products containing CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) from healthy donors' peripheral blood. "Mobilized" leukopaks are created by stimulating the release of HSPCs from the bone marrow into the bloodstream using hematopoietic growth factors.
