Nobody knows for certain, but it is possible that it might be used to treat or cure a variety of diseases where specific types of cells are missing (either because they were never there, they died out, an autoimmune disorder killed them off, etc.). A few of these possibilities are:
- Parkinson's - caused by the loss of dopamine producing cells in the substantia nigra in the brain
- Diabetes (type I) - caused by the death of insulin producing cells in the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas

Infantile spasm syndrome is a seizure disorder that affects infants. Some unscrupulous physicians are giving stem cells to infants with the syndrome as a potential \"cure\". However, according to the National Institute of Health Stem Cell Treatment Center, research on stem cells in not advanced enough to represent a cure for this condition.
