Future of Stem Cell Treatment And Expectations in India

Not only patients believe that stem cells can change their life, but physicians in general also believe that stem cell treatment is the future of science and medicine. The trials and tests and their results shows a significant growth in the understanding of stem cell science, origin, functionality of cells, etc. More the researchers gather information about stem cells, more will be the chances of stem cell treatment replacing traditional drugs in the time to come. Some, scientists and researchers although indicates that stem cells does not match with the conventional medicine business model, as these keep on replicating inside human body. However, majority of healthcare providers are of the view that stem cell therapy can emerge more elastic and powerful than people imagine. Some believe that stemcells can be used in future for developing tissues and medicines for specific patients, in lab conditions. However, the question is how can one benefit from using stem cells in therapeu

Challenges And Issues In Stem Cell Therapy Research For Cerebral Palsy Treatment

Not only is cerebral palsy a difficult disorder to cure, but it is also very complicated to understand. Until now there was complete Cerebral Palsy Treatment , and most of the research in this field aimed at discovering methods to make life manageable for the patients. Target of the available Cerebral Palsy Treatment options is reducing the symptoms and at the same time restricting damage to the brain. However, emergence of stem cells has given a new direction to research and new hope to children affected with this condition. Although effectiveness of Stem Cell Therapy for treating cerebral palsy is yet to be established, but researchers are working on the use of cells from the umbilical cord for treating cerebral palsy. The part of the brain, which controls motor functions, consists of billions of brain cells and many different parts, and when this center is damaged it leads to cerebral palsy. The network of such a huge number of cells makes cerebral palsy a complicate

Stem Cell Therapy On The Way Of Destroying Diabetes From Its Roots

Diabetes is an unceasing and polygenetic disease affecting millions of people around the world. If not controlled, it can lead to hyperglycemia, which can damage many systems of human body proving fatal for the patient. Deaths because of diabetes are expected to double as per the reports of health organizations across the globe. In both the types of diabetes, pancreatic endocrine stem cells specifically the beta cells play a major role in the disease’s progression. In type-1 of the disease, beta cells are subjected to autoimmune obliteration, whereas in type-2 beta cells go through many complicated changes and the mass of beta cells also diminish slowly. Pancreas and islet transplant are among the diabetes treatment options that have been able to improve patient survival in many cases, but the problem with this kind of diabetes treatment is the restricted supply of islets and this has limited broader application of islet transplantation. This is where stem cell therapy has

Moving Towards A Better Life With ALS Treatment With Stem Cell Therapy

In a disease like ALS nerve cells in the spinal cord and brain are affected, what makes the condition worse is the lack of any cure to treat the disease completely. Doctors simply try to ease out the symptoms associated with ALS through different therapies.  From many years researchers have been working hard to understand the root cause of such degenerative diseases and find new treatment options for different diseases including  ALS Treatment . After years of struggle,  Stem Cell Therapy has surfaced as a new possibility for effective  ALS Treatment  and cure for many other such types of diseases. When ALS affects a person nerves controlling body motions are killed and with the loss of these nerves control on muscles also diminishes. As the disease progresses, patients lose walking ability, swallowing, and even speaking ability, and also lose ability to breathe. Before the arrival of  Stem Cell Therapy  for  ALS Treatment , pain relievers and other drugs were given to the pati

Good Results Despite Of Challenges Witnessed In Stem Cell Therapy For Stroke Treatment

Strokes not only leads to impairment, but some survivors are also left on the mercy of institutionalized care and some are even disabled for life. Mostly divided in two categories, majority of the strokes happen because of ischemia, and some of them because of hemorrhage. As far as the Stroke Treatment is concerned, until now, people believed that brain tissues once damaged cannot be repaired. However, Stem Cell Therapy and recent research has given evidence that brain cells can be grown again and improved neurological functionality has also been witnessed. For growing back nerve tissues stem cells are required in huge numbers. The approach that researchers are presently working on includes extracting stem cell from the patient’s bone marrow or abdominal fat and then injecting them into the patient’s body after activation. The challenge with this kind of Stem Cell Therapy for Stroke Treatment is taking the cells to the right area of the brain and then implementing the

Autism Treatment Getting Better With Stem Cell Therapy

What makes autism very complex is its uniqueness, and this makes Autism Treatment even more typical, as every treatment has to be tailored as per the unique condition of the patient. Autism Treatment usually includes medication, behavioral treatment and sometimes both. Patients suffering from autism have many other medical conditions such as gastrointestinal distress, seizures, sleep disturbances, etc, so treatment of autism must consider these conditions as this can lead to improvement in the condition of the patient. Presently treatment option also involves educational interventions apart from medical aid. However, the future might not be the same as Stem Cell Therapy has emerged as an effective way of treating autism. The approach of using Stem Cell Therapy for Autism Treatment depends on the capability of cells to manipulate immune system, metabolism and even reinstate the functioning of damaged tissues and cells. Stem cells are now being used for treating different
