Follow on Google News | Hope Increases as Adult Stem Cells Therapy Use Broadens WorldwideHopeCell.org Applauds Countries Where Stem Cells Treatment is Legal and Expresses a Wish for Further Expansion of Safe Stem Cell Treatments
By: Hopecell.org Application of stem cell treatment procedures where legal is generally restricted to those who have exhausted all other possibilities and would otherwise be “no-option” Adult stem cell therapy (not to be confused with the so far result-barren field of embryonic stem cell research) is the use of stem cells, usually extracted from the patient's own body, to assist his body in repairing damaged tissue. As stem cells are what originally generated all cell types in the body during its growth, they are also capable of repairing or replacing damaged tissue. “Originally the use of stem cells was limited to bone marrow transplants, to infuse the blood-creating stem cells contained in bone marrow to patients with blood-related diseases such as leukemia,” explains Cass. “However, there has been much new stem cell research since then, and now there are other tested applications, such as for heart conditions and kidney conditions. The enormous amount of research and clinical trials conducted in the past, and those that continue today, are paying off in real-life applications being used to help patients around the world.” To read more about stem cell research history, visit http://www.hopecell.org/ End
