A type of genetic medicine that introduce new cells into damaged tissues in order to treat a disease or injury. 

2. Stem cell
•
Stem cells are the ‘building blocks’ of life.
•
When a stem cell divides, each new cell has the potential either to remain
undifferentiated.
•
People can use stem cells to replace ill or aging tissues or organs.
•
A great asset for medical treatments.
•
Enabling treatments for a wide range of diseases and injuries.

3. Stem cell treatment
•
A type of genetic medicine that introduce new cells into damaged tissues in
order to treat a disease or injury.
•
The ability of stem cells to:
– Self – renew
– Give to subsequent generations
•
That can differentiate offers a large potential to culture tissues that can
replace diseased and damaged tissues in the body, without rejection and
side effects.

4. Stem cell therapy
•
Stem cell therapy is provided with pure, viable and potent mesenchymal
stem cells isolated from the tissue of umbilical cord.
•
An effective alternative to bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells.
“An intervention strategy that introduces new adult stem cells into damaged
tissue in order to treat disease or injury.”

5. Types of stem cells

6. Mesenchymal stem cells
•
Bone marrow contains a population of rare progenitor cells known as
Mesenchymal Stem Cells.
•
These cell are capable of replication as undifferentiated cells or
differentiating into bone, cartilage, fat, muscle, tendon and marrow stroma.
•
Mesenchymal stem cells are characterized morphologically by a small cell
body with a few cell processes that are long and thin.

7. Conclusion
•
Research on stem cells continues to advance knowledge about how an
organism develops from a single cell and how healthy cells replace
damaged cells in adult organisms. Stem cell research is one of the most
fascinating areas of contemporary biology, but, as with many expanding
fields of scientific inquiry, research on stem cells raises scientific questions
as rapidly as it generates new discoveries.
