Millions of people suffer from arthritis, but even after being such a common condition very less is known about the root cause of arthritis. This condition, in fact, is not a single ailment, but a number of joint diseases and pain together are referred to as arthritis. There are different types of this condition that affects people around the world, and it is growing to become one of the primary causes of disability as well. Arthritis Treatment involves preserving functioning of the joint, and improving mobility at the same time. Drugs are given to control inflammation and pain, but there is no complete Arthritis Treatment option. With evolution of Stem Cell Therapy , it has proved beneficial even for Arthritis Treatment . Researchers are studying the viability of using stem cells to treat main types of this disease, which are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. The first one is a degenerative condition, which involve degradation of subchondral bone and articular cartilage...

The World Health Organization has recorded a global data of 36 million people, who have been suffering with type 1 diabetes ; which definitely raise an alarming situation. Diabetes is an autoimmune disorder, wherein body’s own immune cells attack and destroy insulin producing islets cells, due to which, glucose metabolism is affected. This, in deed requires stringent monitoring of sugar level and lifelong dependency on external insulin administration. While so far, no successful treatment has been reported conventionally to completely cure the issue, stem cells transplantation has reported to show successful outcome in many clinical investigations. Further to which, diabetes if ignored for a longer period of time can give rise to multiple organ failure, due to constant exposure to the higher blood glucose. Stem cells are the naïve cells of human body, with the ability to differentiate into multiple cells types; upon passage through the cascade of signalling pathways. These cells ...

Diabetes is an autoimmune metabolic disorder, generally characterized by high blood sugar level in the blood or lack of insulin to metabolize sugar. It is certainly not a deadly disease but is typically a chronic disease with reduced life expectancy due to other complications such as diabetic foot, organ damage, cardiovascular complications, blindness, etc. The disease is rightly called as silent killer, as the condition goes asymptomatic for years. Although, certain life style changes have been observed such as increased thirst, frequent urination and/ or improved appetites. What causes diabetes is a matter of debate; as various studies have put forth different risk factors. Some of the preliminary causative factors for the disease can be obesity, poor diet and lack of activity as well as genetic makeup of the individual. Apart from the factors mentioned above, others are old age, high blood pressure, ethnicity, etc. It is very important to know, what is happening inside your b...

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...

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...

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 ...

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...
