Stem-cell therapy
Stem-cell therapy is the use of stem
cells to treat or prevent a disease or condition.
Bone marrow transplant is the most
widely used stem-cell therapy, but some therapies derived from umbilical cord
blood are also in use. Research is underway to develop various sources for stem
cells, as well as to apply stem-cell treatments for neurodegenerative diseases
and conditions such as diabetes and heart disease, among others.
Stem-cell therapy has become
controversial following developments such as the ability of scientists to
isolate and culture embryonic stem cells, to create stem cells using somatic
cell nuclear transfer and their use of techniques to create induced pluripotent
stem cells. This controversy is often related to abortion politics and to human
cloning. Additionally, efforts to market treatments based on transplant of
stored umbilical cord blood have been controversial.
