Some Hidden Things About Stem Cell Therapy

Clinical Trials for Stem Cells

• Stem cells can help us in treating various types
  of diseases as well as various other kinds of
  health disorders. They are proved to be used as
  the blood stem cells for treating blood-related
  diseases such as leukaemia. 
• Clinical trials are helping the researchers to
  find that the stem cells are under the process
  which will help to explore new treatments by
  using stem cells.

Clinical Trials for Stem Cells

• There are a lot of things about the stem cells
  which are yet to be known. However, the current
  applications of stem cell therapy are overstated
  by the media those who do not have the proper
  knowledge about the stem cells and its
  limitations.
• So here are a few things which are to be known
  about the stem cells.

Beneficial for Stem Cell Treatments

• There are recently very few treatments done by
  the stem cells which are effective. The list of
  diseases that have been shown to be beneficial
  for stem cell treatments is still very short.
  Hematopoietic (or blood) stem cell
  transplantation, for example, bone marrow
  transplantation, treatment of certain blood and
  immune system disorders or reconstruction of the
  blood system after treatment for certain types of
  cancer, is the best-defined and most widely used
  stem cell treatment.

Different Types of Stem Cells 

• Different types of stem cells have different
  functions and come from different places in your
  body. Scientists are discovering the various
  roles that tissue-specific stem cells may play to
  heal or to understand that they have specific
  capabilities. As for example, tissue-specific
  stem cells can only generate the other types of
  cells found in the tissues where they live
  without manipulation in the laboratory.

Different Types of Stem Cells 

• The blood-forming (hematopoietic) stem cells
  found in the bone marrow can regenerate the cells
  in the blood, while the neural stem cells in the
  brain can only form brain cells.
• Through multi-step processes using pluripotent
  stem cells, which are embryonic stem cells or
  induced pluripotent stem cells(iPS), scientists
  have learned to make certain specialized cell
  types.

Transplantation

• These cells have the potential to form all the
  different types of cells in the body and provide
  an exciting opportunity to develop new strategies
  for treatment.
• In theory, during transplantation, your immune
  system would not attack your own cells. An
  autologous transplant is called the use of a
  patients own cells.

Effective Medical Treatments

• However, the processes that acquired, grown, and
  then reintroduced the cells into the body would
  carry risks. The fact that an experimental
  procedure does not automatically mean it is part
  of a clinical trial or research study.
• Scientists carefully review their work and
  replicate it, inviting their peers to do the same.

9
Effective Medical Treatments

• This process by which science becomes medicine is
  often long but aimed at minimizing harm of
  patients and maximizing the likelihood of
  efficacy. These are some things that are to be
  known about stem cell therapy.
• The long and multi-step process involves
  translating science responsibly into safe and
  effective medical treatments.

Effective Medical Treatments

• They may discover during this process that a
  treatment effectively addresses the symptoms of a
  human disease or injury, but it carries
  unacceptable risks.
