Stem Cells Treatment for Stroke

Recent clinical trial conducted by investigators of Sandford’s University has proven the efficacy and feasibility of adult stem cells from human tissues; in restoration and functional modification of chronic stroke patients. Furthermore, the trial has suggested that all stroke patients, with the recent attack between six months to three years remained conscious under general light anaesthesia. Stem cells are the natural super cells of human body, giving rise to muscles, fat, bone and tendons. Although, primary clinical investigation reported further that these stem cells don’t exhibit any tumorigenic properties by differentiating into unwanted cells and tissues. The technology has enabled easy isolation of stem cells from body’s own sources, such as bone marrow as well as adipose tissues; being isolated from body’s own sources, they did not pose any attributable side effects, neither did they link to any life threatening adverse effects, post procedure. The principal investigat

Stem Cells Treatment for Diabetes

According to the recent advances, stem cells generated in advance national US laboratory, in collaboration with International Space Station, have exhibited to be promising advancements in generating insulin producing beta cells, to be helpful as a potential treatment for type 1 Diabetes. Scientists are further interested in finding ways to cure silent sugar disease, through the application of regenerative science; either by producing beta cells or by creating environment through stem cells that will indirectly support the production of beta cells.   In both the cases, stem cells are identified to be as the lead players. Diabetes is a devastating, autoimmune metabolic disorder affecting millions of people in the world. It is being categorically distinguished into two major types, 1 & 2; depending upon their functional attributes. As in, type 1 diabetes is often associated with aberrant destruction of insulin producing beta cells, causing sugar molecule to accumulate in the bl
