Select the correct answer. mandy, a leukemia patient, requires a stem cell transplant to treat her disease. because the stem cells used for mandy’s treatment will be taken from another person, she will be required to take medications that weaken her immune system. these medications reduce the chances of mandy’s immune system attacking the foreign cells from the donor. weakening a patient’s immune system increases the patient’s vulnerability to common illnesses. what could be done to avoid this scenario? a. mandy’s own stem cells could be used to treat her leukemia. b. both stem cells and immune cells from the donor could be used to treat mandy’s leukemia. c. mandy could be kept in isolation until her body recognizes the donor’s stem cells as her own cells. d. stem cells could be injected into one of mandy’s healthy organs before transferring them to her blood.
