Stem cell research leads the charge in medical innovation, heralding revolutionary advances in regenerative medicine. This rapidly evolving field can alter how we approach complex diseases and tissue damage. By utilizing the unique properties of various stem cells, scientists are developing groundbreaking therapies that could one-day cure conditions once thought untreatable. However, research in stem cells has challenges and controversies …
Human Embryonic Stem Cells hESC Therapy
Human embryonic stem cell line or hESC are also referred to as simply Embryonic stem cells. ES cells pertains to a pluripotent lineage of cells that are typically derived from a human embryo (after zygote) at its earliest stage. Embyronic Stem Cell Biology Embryonic cells of the morular are totipotent. ES cells are considered very powerful in regenerative medicine since they …
Adult Somatic vs Embryonic Derived Stem Cells
Embryonic and Adult stem cells or somatic stem cells are two of the most common sources of bio-engineered cell based regenerative medicine today. Adult “post-natal” stem cells are sometimes referred to as somatic stem cells. Somatic Stem Cell Transplants The main function of somatic stem cells in your body is to maintain tissue health or “homeostasis” by making sure your …
