From several decades scientists have been studying different stem cells extensively. These included neural cells, embryonic cells, hematopoietic stem cells derived from bone marrow, and the most popular today are the mesenchymal cells. In the last few years Stem Cell Therapy has been applied for treatment of a number of diseases, and technology has played a very important role behind the success of such kind of therapy. With recent technological advancements better and more efficient experimental and culture technologies has surfaced, which include optical molecular imaging technology, computed tomography of single photon emanation, positron emanation tomography, etc. Rapid development in the technology of computed tomography has given a boost to research in treatment evaluation of conditions associated with stem cells as well as disease mechanism. Technologies that are often used in Stem Cell Therapy and related research includes cell culture techniques, separation of ...

Failure of the liver to repair itself results into a fatal condition known as liver cirrhosis, and presently patients go through liver transplant to manage this condition. The causes of this disease are many but cure is limited. In livercirrhosis, scar tissues take the place of healthy tissues leading to improper functioning of the liver. Earlier this condition was considered irreversible, but Stem Cell Therapy has changed the fate of this condition, like many other degenerative disorders. Several trials in this field have shown that using stem cells for Liver Cirrhosis Treatment can be effective and even safe, but research is still needed in this direction to prove complete safety and efficacy of Stem Cell Therapy for Liver Cirrhosis Treatment . Occurrence of liver cirrhosis and basic theory behind the use of stem cells Livercirrhosis happens when liver fibrosis progresses and the injury persists overtime. In liver fibrosis, hepatic architecture is distorted because of ex...

One of the most common types of arthritis is osteoarthritis. This condition occurs when the cartilage amidst the bones wears out and the bones start to rub. Pain is one of the common symptoms of this condition, which is usually controlled with drugs and in case of acute pain surgical Osteoarthritis Treatment is the last resort. However, things have changed with advancements in science and technology and Stem Cell Therapy has emerged as a silver lining for millions of people who are fighting with such degenerative conditions. Researchers are testing every possibility of using mesenchymal stem cells for treating incurable ailments such as osteoarthritis.  Preference of mesenchymal cells   The reason why mesenchymal cells are preferred for such treatment is their multi-lineage ability and immunosuppressive features. Other advantages of using mesenchymal cells for Osteoarthritis Treatment include easy growth of such cells in culture and restricted immunogenicity. These ...

Cirrhosis occurs when regenerative nodules encircled with fibrous bands develops because of acute liver injury, and this leads to liver disease of the last stage. With recent developments in medical science Pathophysiology and history of cirrhosis is now better understood leading to improved management of the disease as well as improved life expectancy. Until now, liver transplant was the only cure available for Liver Cirrhosis Treatment , but Stem Cell Therapy has opened up new borders for patients suffering from such fatal disease. In many conditions related to the liver, stem cells have proven beneficial and research also proves that in the time to come Stem Cell Therapy can emerge as a complete cure for liver diseases, like many other degenerative diseases. Researchers are working on every possibility of using Stem Cell Therapy for Liver Cirrhosis Treatment and replace the option of liver transplant. For this they have studied different cell types including embryonic ...

The explosive field of Stem Cell Therapy holds far more potential than what has been discovered in the last few years and with advanced research and technology many new things will come out of the bag. With every positive trial and test, researchers move a step forward towards making live better for those affected with degenerative disorders. The power of Stem Cell Therapy is immense but how much of it can be harnessed for the good of mankind depends on many factors. From cell types, to ability to differentiate in lab conditions, to sources of extraction, and even side effects, many such factors influence the potential of Stem Cell Therapy . Stem Cell Therapy characteristics depend a lot on epigenetic and genetic factors, and there is still a lot to be explored about the interaction methods of such factors. Gradually researchers have understood the significance of environmental aspects that works to regulate behavior of stem cells and they try to explore these aspects thro...
