Did you mean Autologous Cells?

GlossaryAutologous Cells

cells taken from and reintroduced into the same individual

Autologous cells are cells that are harvested from an individual's own body and then reintroduced back into the same person. This approach is commonly used in therapies such as autologous cell transplantation, where the patient's own cells are used to treat conditions like certain types of cancer or to regenerate damaged tissues, minimizing the risk of immune rejection.
