Stem Cells Therapy

Use of bone marrow stem cells in regenerative medicine has shown excellent success. The bone marrow contains a potent combination of hematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in large numbers. These are multipotent stem cells that can potentially trans-differentiate into a variety of blood components, osteoblasts, chondrocytes, myocytes, adipocytes, neuronal and beta-pancreatic islet cells.

The success of these procedures lies in the ability of these stem cells to form cells, tissues or organs that need repair or regeneration, and this forms the very cornerstone of its widespread application.

Stem cells are the master cells which have the power to repair, regenerate and replace damaged cells in the body. Stem cells can help form tissues for the heart, liver, nervous system, cartilage of joints and spinal cord. These cells can regenerate into over 200 types of tissues.

Research also shows that besides the potential use of these cells for the donor, these cells can possibly be used to benefit other family members who are genetically related to the donor, such as a parent or a child.
