Potential Benefits of Stem Cell Research for Alzheimer’s Patients and Their Families Name Institution affiliation Potential Benefits of Stem Cell Research for Alzheimer’s Patients and Their Families The human being body is made up of different types of cells which arise from a stem cell. Stem cells are a group of cells which contain the entire cell component but are not assigned any specific function until they undergo differentiation. Researchers have been carrying of Alzheimer's disease 49(3) 617-631. Karch C. M. Cruchaga C. & Goate A. M. (2014). Alzheimer’s disease genetics: from the bench to the clinic. Neuron 83(1) 11-26. Sacchetti B. Funari A. Remoli C. Giannicola G. Kogler G. Liedtke S. ... & Tenedini E. (2016). No identical “mesenchymal stem cells” at different times and sites: human committed progenitors of distinct origin and differentiation potential are incorporated as adventitial cells in microvessels. Stem cell reports 6(6) 897-913. [...]
Order Description:
"Stem cells are undifferentiated, primitive cells with the ability both to multiply and to differentiate into specific kinds of cells. Stem cells hold the promise of allowing researchers to grow specialized cells or tissue, which could be used to treat injuries or disease (e.g., spinal cord injuries, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, strokes, burns)."
