Novel Stem Cell Source Found in Injured Brains
https://reachmd.com/news/novel-stem-cell-source-found-in-injured-brains/2453502/
Researchers from Helmholtz Munich and the LMU have discovered that, in the case of brain injuries, specific cells in the brain become active in disease situations, exhibiting properties of neural stem cells. The authors further discovered that a specific protein regulates these cells and hence cou…
Stem Cell Treatment Halts MS for Some Patients
https://reachmd.com/news/stem-cell-treatment-halts-ms-for-some-patients/2452762/
by Amy Norton A new study is strengthening the evidence that stem cell transplants can be highly effective for some people with multiple sclerosis—sending the disease into remission for years, and sometimes reversing disability. Researchers found that of 174 MS patients who underwent stem cell …
