Stem cell therapy and research have entered a new stage where new discoveries are coming forward to help patients suffering from severe conditions and grave diseases. Stem cells are being widely used in stem cell treatment for their effectiveness and easy procurement. There are several benefits of using adult stem cells as compared to other kinds of stem cells. With the latest stem cell therapy and research in India, now there is stem cell treatment possible for various diseases such as Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Dementia, Muscular Dystrophy, Intellectual Disability, Motor Neuron Disease, Spinal Cord Injury, Stroke, TBI, and others. NeuroGen Brain and Spine Institute is a premier healthcare institute providing the stem cell treatment successfully.
Some facts about adult stem cells
Adult stem cells were researched around 60 years ago and were found in the bone marrow. Bone marrow contains at least two kinds of stem cells. In the later years, researchers discovered some dividing cells in the brain that could turn into the nerve cell. In the 90s, the scenario became clear and researchers were sure that adult brain contains stem cells which can generate various cell types found in different parts of the body. Adult stem cell treatment can help the therapeutic procedure and treat the core of the disease such as a neurological and muscular disease.
There are some notable things about adult stem cells which make them more useful and popular among doctors who make use of them for treating severe medical conditions. The adult stem cell can renew itself and can differentiate to yield major specialized cell types of the tissues. Adult stem cells play the role of maintaining and repairing the tissues. Adult stem cells are also popular because they are available all over the body, unlike embryonic stem cells which are found only in a particular area. With new research and new tests, scientists are hopeful to find adult stem cells in many more tissues which will make treatment easier for several other diseases.
Where are adult stem cells found?
With the new stem cell research and therapy in India, it has become extremely important to procure adult stem cells. These cells are procured from the brain, bone marrow, blood vessels, and peripheral blood. Mostly, it is the hip bone from which bone marrow is procured, and further treatment procedure takes place. At NGBSI, extensive research is carried out, in this direction to provide treatment for various other complex diseases. There is an expert panel of doctors and therapists here at NGBSI that takes care of the complete treatment and therapy of the patient. Indian institutes like NGBSI have been playing a significant role in developing stem cell treatments for different conditions.
