What is all the fuss about Stem Cells?What are they?

What are stem cells?

• Stem cells are undifferentiated cells in the body that are able to grow into differentiated cell types. They are broadly divided into two: embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells

• Adult stem cells – found in organs and teeth

• Embryonic cells have the ability to grow into any cell in the body

*Pluripotent: Embryonic stem cells are able to develop into any type of cell, excepting those of the placenta. Only embryonic stem cells of the morula are totipotent: able to develop into any type of cell, including those of the placenta.

Why are stem cells important? Lets have a

look…

Researchers are trying to use stem cell therapy for the treatment of different diseases like:

• Neurodegenerative conditions such as Parkinson’s Disease and Multiple Sclerosis

• Diabetes• Liver disease• Musculoskeletal disorders and for • Autoimmune diseases• Musculoskeletal disorders and for • Heart disease • Cancer (bone marrow transplants) and

spinal fusion surgery• Regenerating nerves following brain or

spinal cord injury• Bone fractures

Why should you bank your stem cells?

• When everything looks fine, stem cells might be unimportant to you because you do not suffer from disorders such as: spinal cord injury, diabetes etc. But, stem cells could be crucial in treating diseases due to their special property of being forever ‘young’ and adaptable to change

• It is a very easy process and can be done by saving the umbilical cord blood

• It is a safeguard for your health

Where to bank stem cells?

• The umbilical cord stem cells from the umbilical cord blood can be deposited in a umbilical cord blood bank and can be used anytime in the future

• A proper umbilical cord blood bank that follows medical standards and guidelines must be chosen
