Several stem cell researchers have been debating long and hard over the issue around cell therapy and its applications. While many of us do not have a conclusive answer to this yet. But just as every coin has two sides and so does this discussion.
This article is all about the pros and cons of cell therapy. Let us first try to know something on stem cells. Stem cells are those kinds of human cells that have not yet developed fully.
The research on stem cells has been done for years together now. Let us look into the three types of stem cells. They are embryonic stem cells, pluripotent stem cells and adult stem cells. Firstly cell therapy offers many medical beneficiaries in the remedial sectors of regenerative medicine. It helps in the treatment of a number of neurological disorder conditions like spinal cord injuries , autism , cerebral palsy, dementia, motor neuron disease, muscular dystrophy, intellectual disability, and stroke and head injury.
Apart from that, it is also known to be a curative for diseases like Alzheimer, schizophrenia, diabetes and cancer. Researchers can learn more about the overall growth and development of human cells. Another advantage that comes with stem cell research is it prolongs the reversing effects of ageing and our lives.
It has discovered several treatments that help in slowing down the ageing process. The next thing is that it centers around the usage of neural stem cells, adult stem cells and cord blood stem cells each with benefits of its own.
