The researchers can watch what happens to the cells when they apply the treatments. They can tell if the treatment is working or if something else needs to be done.
The biggest disadvantage of using unipotent stem cells for medical treatment is their limited differentiation potential. Unipotent stem cells can only differentiate into a specific type of cell, which restricts their ability to treat a wide range of conditions or injuries. This narrow differentiation capacity hinders their potential for regenerative medicine compared to pluripotent stem cells that can differentiate into various cell types.
Macrocytosis is the term given for the condition of having larger blood cells than normal. It is not a disease but can be the symptom of a number of underlying medical conditions.
sickle cell anemia
The theory behind using stem-cells in SCI treatment, is that they can be used to regenerate glia (a type of cell in the spinal cord that is damaged badly during injury). In order for that treatment to be effective, however, it is believed that swelling of the cord must be controlled to prevent the formation of extremely tough and fiberous scar tissue. You can put as many new cells in there as you want, but it won't do any good if their growth is blocked by scar tissue. Current experimental "treatments" involving stem cells in SCI survivors have shown to be ineffective.
Anisocytosis is the condition of red blood cells of different sizes.
Pluripotent cells can differentiate into more types of cells.
Totipotent cells can differentiate into more types of cells
they can only be used to create specific types of cells

Pluripotent cells can differentiate into almost any type of cell.
Pluripotent cells can differentiate into almost any type of cell.
Sulfonylureas stimulate the beta cells in the Islets of Langerhans to secrete insulin. In type I Diabetes Mellitus, the beta cells have been destroyed, so sulfonylureas are ineffective for treatment of hyperglycemia in these patients.
A type of trisomy, where only some of the cells in the body have the extra chromosome.
Yes, leuko can change the meaning of a medical term. For instance, cytosis is an abnormal cell condition. Leukocytosis is an abnormal condition of white blood cells.
