Photopherisis step that separates red blood cells from white blood cells
Photopheresis first separates my blood, red cells from white cells. This is a centrifuge that accomplishes this separation. The top white layer in the movie are my white cells that are siphoned into a bag where a light sensitive drug is injected and mixed. The mixture is then exposed to UV light. This exposure kills off the t-cells that are responsible for my GVHD but also when put back into me will teach the bone marrow produced from the donor stem cells not to make the t-cells that are responsible for my GVHD also. Eventually my GVHD will be cured and the need for steroid drugs will be eliminated.From:Kevin SmithViews:1 0ratingsTime:00:15More inComedy
