By carring on Stem Cell research scientists and doctors will have a better understanding about cell development, how to correct errors in abnormal cells and make sure any cell treatments are safe for patients.

Alzheimers is a disease which destroys brain cells- so scientist and doctors can use the information they learn to treat this disease.

there are different neuron cells,how do the stem cells know what they should be ?

What are stem sells and what do they do?

Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to develop into different types of cells in the body. They play a key role in replenishing and repairing tissues in the body. Stem cells have the potential for use in regenerative medicine to treat a variety of medical conditions.


Can embryonic stem cells or adult stem cells be used to treat someone's Degenerative Disc Disorder?

Embryonic stem cells have the ability to differentiate into any cell type, including those that make up intervertebral discs. However, due to ethical concerns and potential risks, research on using embryonic stem cells is limited. Adult stem cells, like mesenchymal stem cells, show promise in regenerative therapies for degenerative disc disorder by promoting tissue repair and regeneration. Clinical trials are ongoing to explore the potential of adult stem cells in treating this condition.


I know stem cell treatments are controversial and cutting edge but how does the treatment work?

Stem cells are cells that have the potential to become any kind of cell. So if a person's cells have been damaged, the stem cells can be used to recreate healthy cells. Stem cell treatment is still in the research stage. Studies are currently being conducted to inject stem cells to treat spinal cord injuries.

Why can stem cells be used to treat paralysis?

Stem cells have the ability to differentiate into various cell types, including nerve cells. When injected into the damaged area of the spinal cord, stem cells can help regenerate and replace lost nerve cells, potentially restoring function and alleviating paralysis. Additionally, stem cells can help reduce inflammation and provide growth factors that support tissue repair in the nervous system.
