Stem Cells Treatment for Autism in India
Autism is a developmental disorder
associated with neuronal damage and has been linked with various accidental traumas
offered to the brain, due to vaccine injury, heavy metals, toxic food
administration and technical faults during deliveries. The prevalence of autism
is increasing at a very faster speed, with almost 1 in 68 children reported to
be autistic.
Children suffering with autism spectrum
disorders are suffering with range of anomalies, characterized by reduced or
hampered social interaction as well as effective communication. Parents of
these children may complain about their kids being hyperactive, not socially
adjustable, severely disabled, always irritated and being engrossed in their
own world. Conventionally, medical science is offering different types of
rehabilitation to these kids, by exploring their other gifted skills, such as
offering easy ways of communication through speech therapies, etc. Further
clinical investigations have revealed a strong connection between other
inflammatory processes and dysfunctional immune behaviour, leading towards
inappropriate functioning of the brain.
However, worldwide clinical investigations
have shown very encouraging results in autistic children with the application
of stem cells therapy. Although, a very limited data is
available globally, exhibiting how effectively stem cells help in
differentiating lost neurons and restoring lost function of brain; but
significant bench work is backing up the ability of stem
cells treatment for Autism. Stem cells are found to be the super cells of our body, with the
potential, inherent ability to differentiate in multiple cells types; upon
channelling through proper pathways. These stem cells are found to be located
in variety of adult human organs, such as bone marrow, adipose tissues, etc. They
act as maintenance cells and help in maintaining tissue specific cell numbers,
which may get lost due to normal wear and tear of the body.
The technology has now enabled isolation of
stem cells from body’s own adult sources and infusing them back at the site of
injury to promote formation of new blood vessels; in order to allow oxygen rich
blood towards the brain. These stem cells are as well found to be exhibiting
immune regulatory properties, thus help in regularizing inflammatory response
of the body towards its favourable mechanism of action. The strong paracrine
properties of these smart cells may help to synchronize migration of resident
stem cells from different other organs towards the site of injury; thus,
helping in cellular regeneration, creation of suitable environment and
functional restoration.
Being isolated
from autologous sources of our body, they don’t pose any significant threat to
patients. In fact, significant positive changes have been noted in many kids,
who have undergone stem cells therapies; in terms, of
- ·
Anger control
- ·
Reduced stimming
- ·
Easing out obsessive compulsive
disorders
- ·
Normalization of appetite
- ·
Good control over bowel habits
- ·
Improved social behaviour and
cognitive abilities
- ·
Less picky eating
Although, lot of
research is still going on and everyday scientists are studying and verifying
different functional aspects of stem cells; from the currents statistical
analysis, stem cells isolated from autologous sources are found to be readily
effective in obtaining maximum recovery output with minimum risk exposure.
