Almost any disease that has to do with replacement of organs or neurons e.g. Cancer and Alzheimer's disease, etc, may benefit, or be cured by stem cell therapy. But, since this technology is in its infancy, we cannot be certain whether it can cure anything at all. So far to date, no human disease has been cured by stem cell research and therapy.
