Cardiac Stem Cell Therapy Heart failure is the leading cause of death worldwide, and current therapies only delay progression of the disease. Laboratory experiments and recent clinical trials suggest that cell-based therapies can improve cardiac function, and the implications of this for cardiac regeneration are causing great excitement. Bone-marrow-derived progenitor cells and other progenitor cells [...]

Progenitor cell therapy is a promising treatment for ischemic heart disease. For ischemic conditions in the myocardium and skeletal muscles, it is a potential new treatment option. It describes the use of multi-potent cells of various cell lineages for tissue repair and/or regeneration. Progenitor cell therapy is being investigated for the treatment of damaged myocardium [...]
Stem cells and stem cell treatment have received plenty of stories coverage recently, some of it questionable, so this month I have made a decision to debate stem cells generally, together with several approaches to stem cell treatment. The stem cell treatments I advocate are both legal and easy, particularly with the appearance of a [...]
Conventional therapies which are put to use to cure Leukemia consist of using strong doses of drugs and radiations during chemotherapy. This treatment involves strong doses of the medication as it is necessary to get rid of the cancerous cells. But these procedures also end up doing unwanted damage. It is seen that along with [...]
Cancer is one disease which has affected humans since long. Though scientists have since long worked on its cure and have got encouraging results too but clinical success is yet to come in severe cases. Chemotherapy and strong drugs is what is used in the present time to cure cancer. Though helpful these forms of [...]
