Stem Cells: Types and Their Importance

Stem Cells: Types and Their Importance. Stem cells are found in all multicellular organisms. Their primary characteristic is that through mitosis (cell division), they can form more stem cells or differentiate into specialized cells. This capacity for differentiation makes them essential for renewing and repairing tissues. Because of this unique ability, biomedical research has focused […]

Exploring Stem Cell Diversity: A Comprehensive Guide to Their Types and Potentials

Exploring Stem Cell Diversity: Understanding Stem Cell Classification: Types and Potentials Stem cells can be classified based on their origin, according to studies by the NIH, into adult stem cells (ASCs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs). ASCs, also known as multipotent stem cells, are organ-specific, as they generate cell types from the same tissue. Explore […]

Revolutionizing Colitis Treatment: Stem Cells as the Answer

Revolutionizing Colitis Treatment: Stem Cells – When medications fail and surgery isn’t an option. The transplantation of patient-derived stem cells from the bone marrow emerges as an effective alternative for treating this chronic disease. Cellular therapy using stem cells is transforming the approach to treating severe pathologies. The replacement of damaged tissue cells with new […]

Amniotic Fluid Stem Cells: A New Hope in the Treatment of Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC)

Treatment of Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC): The Promise of Amniotic Fluid Stem Cells. Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a severe gastrointestinal disease that primarily affects premature neonates. Despite significant advances in research, NEC remains challenging to diagnose in its early stages, and current treatment approaches are often inadequate. The NIH conducted a study published under the title […]
