The document discusses stem cell patentability in Europe. It notes that pluripotent stem cells can form all tissues but not extra-embryonic tissue, while totipotent stem cells can form a whole organism. The European Patent Convention prohibits patents on inventions that exploit human embryos. However, stem cell patents are allowed if they do not require human embryo destruction or use embryos for commercial purposes. Recent court cases have further clarified these guidelines around patenting stem cells and cell lines derived from embryos. National laws on stem cell patents vary and ethical views continue evolving over time.
Stem Cells in the Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease
Stem cells, including neural stem cells, bone marrow stromal cells, and embryonic stem cells, show potential for treating Alzheimer's disease. Neural stem cells can differentiate into neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes and secrete neurotrophic factors that may help regenerate cholinergic neurons damaged in Alzheimer's. Bone marrow stromal cells may migrate to the brain and help reduce amyloid plaques. Embryonic stem cells can also differentiate into neural cells but research faces limitations including immune response and ensuring proper differentiation. Stem cell transplantation aims to replace lost neurons and secret neuroprotective factors to help cognitive function.

Stem cell Therapy in Neurological diseases
Stem cells can differentiate into various cell types and divide to produce more stem cells. There are two main types: embryonic stem cells from fertilized eggs and adult stem cells found in tissues. Stem cells are important for potential treatments as they can generate large numbers of cells from a limited source and may be obtained from patients. While embryonic stem cells show potential for treating conditions, their safety requires further investigation. Adult stem cells are used in therapies like bone marrow transplantation. Stem cell transplantation faces challenges like preventing scar tissue formation and ensuring proper differentiation and integration into host circuits.
Stem cells in CNS disorders
Human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells secrete brain-derived neurotrophic factor which promotes neuronal survival in vitro
Adult stem cells emily block 3
Adult stem cells are undifferentiated cells found in the body after development that have the abilities of self-renewal and multipotency. They are mostly found in blood and bone marrow and can be used to treat degenerative diseases, autoimmune disorders, injuries, and cosmetic conditions. A stem cell transplant for leukemia involves finding a donor, extracting their stem cells, clearing the recipient's body of cancerous cells through chemotherapy or radiation, and transplanting the donor's healthy stem cells to repopulate the recipient's blood and immune system.

Stem cells & Neurodegenerative diseases And Some clinical CNSAll India Institute of Medical Sciences, Bhopal
This document discusses several neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson's disease, ALS, and poliomyelitis. For Parkinson's, stem cell therapies show promise by producing dopamine neurons. For ALS, mesenchymal stem cells and neural progenitor cells have been shown to protect motor neurons and promote recovery in rodent models. Clinical trials are underway injecting neural progenitor cells into the spinal cords of ALS patients. Poliomyelitis destroys motor neurons and can cause paralysis, though vaccines have nearly eradicated it. The document also briefly discusses post-polio syndrome and tabes dorsalis.Stem cells and_regenerative_medicine

STEM CELL THERAPY
Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) involves collecting stem cells from a patient's bloodstream and later infusing them back into the patient after chemotherapy or radiation therapy. PBSCT has replaced bone marrow as the most common stem cell transplantation procedure. Stem cells are collected from the bloodstream using growth factors alone or with chemotherapy, and the minimum number needed for a safe transplant is 2 million CD34+ cells per kilogram of body weight. PBSCT results in faster recovery time compared to bone marrow transplants due to higher numbers of stem cells and T cells collected.
