Autologous conditioned serum
A blood product.
General information
Autologous conditioned serum (ACS) is prepared by a treatment of the patient’s blood in which the cells within the serum produce compounds such as IL-1R antagonist (the recombinant form is termed Anakinra). The patient is then reinjected a fraction of the serum. ACS has been studied for the treatment of osteoarthritis (Evans et al., 2016).
