Opis

Stem-cell therapy has been accepted as the effective treatments for many blood diseases, certain types of Cancers and several other diseases in the world over the last 10 years. It is believed that Stem-cell therapy may eventually offer remedies for Brain diseases such as Stroke, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases, Spinal cord injury, autoimmune diseases, Mitral stenosis, Osteoarthritis, Degenerative diseases, and certain forms of Cancer and Heart disease. Stem-cell therapy is no longer science fiction. Recent developments in the technique of Stem-cell isolation and expansion together with advances in growth factor biology and biodegradable polymer constructs have set a stage for successful tissue engineering of tooth/tooth-related tissues. Stem-cell therapy has brought in a lot of optimistic hope amongst researchers, doctors, and not to forget the patients who are the chief beneficiary of this innovation. Stem-cells regenerate hope and not all that is happening in research is hype.
