Stem Cells Treatments for Stroke
Many studies
have reported that with the modern technology, it is now possible to treat
massive diseases such as stroke with the help of patient’s own stem cells with
more feasibility and safety. It has as well been reported that all the
patients, who were involved in clinical studies very well tolerated the
procedure with no complications, all the patients showed variable improvements,
which was confirmed with the help of MRI and CT scan and lastly throughout the
study, no signs of tumours or blood vessel malformation detected.
Similar proof of
concept trials has concluded complete safety and feasibility of stem
cells treatment; as a possible alternative option in demand for many
deadly conditions such as stroke. Till date, conditions such as stroke or
paralysis were treated to be ultimate conditions; people have to stay with rest
of their lives. But with the advent of stem cells technology, the scenario took
a swift u turn towards a new path of hope and wellness. Many ongoing clinical
studies, such as the one listed above, have confirmed the rationale to motivate
many scientists, who are actually working on the development of stem cells,
based therapies.
Stem cells are the youngest cells observed in human development and are
responsible for giving rise to all the trillions of cells in human body. These
cells have the tremendous power of self-multiplication and regeneration without
losing its ability over the period of time.
All these exclusive properties collectively signify them as very special
candidates that can solve major health issues; which are troubling mankind
currently.
Stroke is a
condition displaying obstruction in the flow of blood towards the brain due to
either blood clot or blood vessel damage. Brain cells are in constant demand of
oxygen to survive and work more efficiently. Without a supply of oxygenated
blood, there may be a huge neuronal cells death, halting the passage of
information from brain to leading organs of the body. This may lead to unwanted
consequences such as paralysis; making people be completely dependent for the
rest of their lives.
With the help of
stem cells based therapies, it is technically possible to infuse enriched stem
cells either from autologous as well as allogeneic donor, to initiate new blood
vessel formation, reduce the inflammation and regenerate the damaged cells to
restore back the brain function to significant levels.
Thus, stem cells treatment for stroke
can be a viable option to activate or energize weakened or dead neurons to gain
control over lost functions after stroke attack.
