Title: Banking Cord Blood or Banking Cord Lining?


1
Banking Cord Blood or Cord Lining?
2
  • Stem cell banking has opened up a world of
    possibilities. Now, we can ensure the health of
    our child by using biological resources. Think of
    it as a self-repair kit. However, before opting
    for cord blood banking, you must know about the
    options available to you.

What is Cord Blood Banking?
  • Cord blood is present in the umbilical cord and
    placenta after delivery. Cord blood is a rich
    source of stem cells. Through, cord blood
    banking, we can collect the cord blood and freeze
    the stem cells. These can be later used for
    future medical use.
  • Before the 1990s, however, the umbilical cord and
    its blood were considered medical waste. Today,
    parents know the importance of the
    regenerative powers of the stem cells contained
    in the blood. This is why they choose to store it
    so it can be used to treat life-threatening
    diseases.
  • Cord blood stem cells are mainly Hematopoietic
    Stem Cells (HSCs), which means that they can
    transform into various blood cell types.

What is Cord Lining Banking?
  • Cord lining banking, on the other hand, involves
    storing different types of stem cells. The cord
    lining membrane contains Mesenchymal stem cells
    (MSCs) and Epithelial stem cells (ESCs). 
  • Mesenchymal Stem Cells give rise to various other
    cells that make up the structural framework of
    our organs. These include skin fibroblasts,
    ligament fibroblasts, chondrocytes, osteoblasts,
    smooth muscle cells, skeletal muscle cells,
    tenocytes, cardiomyocytes,  neuronal cells, and
    adipocytes.
  • Epithelial stem cells (ESCs) produce cells that
    line the body. They can be diversified into skin
    keratinocytes, epithelial cells of the cornea and
    conjunctiva, mucosal epithelial cells of the
    oesophagus, small and large intestines, airways
    and lungs, bladder and uterus, as well as liver
    cells.

What Are The Different Healing Properties Of Stem
cells?
  • Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs), found in cord
    blood, can be used to regenerate the immune
    system. Their regenerative powers can also come
    in handy when treating life-threatening diseases.
    After conducting intensive research, it has been
    concluded that they can be used to successfully
    treat leukemia and other blood disorders.

What Are The Different Healing Properties Of Stem
cells?
  • Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and Epithelial stem
    cells (ESCs), found in cord lining membrane,
    repair and heal the body differently when
    compared to cord blood. Over the years, they have
    shown immense healing capabilities. They not only
    aid the repair of injured tissues and organs but
    can also treat a number of diseases. MSCs on the
    other hand, are building blocks of structural
    tissues of our body, such as the bone, cartilage,
    and muscle. In fact, Mesenchymal Stem Cell
    therapy has evolved as a strong contender in the
    fight against the deadly effects of the Covid-19
    virus. Cells derived from ESCs form many parts of
    our body, including skin, hair, cornea, sweat
    glands, and other secretor cells, sensing cells,
    and cells that cover vital parts of our body such
    as the liver. Given their various cell types,
    these stem cells show a lot of promise for
    cellular therapies and regenerative medicine.
  • They are also undergoing evaluation in more than
    300 trials. If all goes well, they will be used
    to treat heart diseases, stroke, spinal cord
    injury, cornea repair, and healing burns and
    diabetic ulcers.

Which Is The Best For You?
  • Both cord lining banking and cord blood banking
    offer your child and your family members a range
    of treatment options. You can opt for both to
    ensure your childs safety.
  • Once considered medical waste, stem cells are now
    hailed for their life-saving properties. So,
    dont listen to the naysayers and give your baby
    and your family the power of regenerative
    healing.
