Stem Cells Role in Neuro-Biological Treatment

Stem cells, on the other hand, are cells that have yet to be assigned a definite function and can transform into nearly any cell that is required. Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that can differentiate into different types of cells as needed by the body. Scientists and clinicians are interested in stem cells because they can help explain how certain bodily functions work and how they might go awry. After a nervous system damage, neural stem cells (NSCs) have the capacity to replenish lost tissue. Thus, stem cells can aid in the repair of the host's brain tissue in part by secreting growth factors, and their regeneration-promoting abilities can be altered through gene transfer.
