Stem cells and future medical applications
semanticscholar(2020)
Abstract
While somatic cells can only replicate themselves to have the same functions, for instance, replacement of skin and red blood cells, stem cells can differentiate into any type of functional cell. They have the potential to innovatively rehabilitate terminal illnesses, such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and brain damage; however, there are still multiple limitations to their usage in the medical field. This paper aims to serve as an introduction for people seeking to know more about stem cells in general; it provides a collection of comprehensible principal information about stem cells, such as their types and preservation methods. Moreover, it focuses on the future of stem cell adaptations for health and treatments for diseases and conditions. The research also covers the importance of ethical concerns, since they are extracted from living human beings. Hence, it would allow a wider range of audiences to acknowledge the advancement in stem cell science and technology. Stem cells are considered a novel area of science, so their current uses are rather obscure but will definitely play a significant role in the future for existing and unprecedented diseases.
