What are the possible stem cell toxicities of certain regimens?

Certain regimens that involve the use of stem cells can potentially lead to toxicities in the body. One of the main concerns is graft-versus-host disease, where the transplanted stem cells attack the recipient's healthy tissues. In addition, there is a risk of infection due to a weakened immune system from the stem cell therapy. Other possible toxicities include damage to the liver, kidneys, lungs, or other organs, as well as complications like blood clots or bleeding disorders. It is important for healthcare providers to closely monitor patients undergoing stem cell regimens to manage and mitigate these potential toxicities.
