Abstract

While the many advantages but risks associated with stem cell therapy and research are indeed real and significant in number, when speaking strictly about the benefits it can be concluded that the claims made by researchers are indeed viable. The many possibilities for historic breakthroughs in treating a sundry of diseases along with the additional research benefits and ability of stem cell “specialization” make this topic perhaps one of the most promising fields of disease and medical study in this century. The optimistic research done and the hopeful results already obtained show the possibility for the entire diseases and medical field to be revolutionized in the near future. Researchers have found the stem cell therapy promising for many diseases. Bone marrow stem cells, for example, are used to replace blood cells in people suffering from leukemia and other cancers. Burn victims are also benefiting from stem cell therapy, which allows for new skin cells to be grafted as a replacement for damaged ones. New healthy cells can also be grown to treat eye diseases as well as replace dysfunctional tissues. The ultimate goal of stem cell therapy is to replace unhealthy cells with healthy ones and to do so efficiently, allowing proper cell functioning in the human body. With the promise of technological and medical advancements, however stem cell therapy can fulfill patients hope. Keywords: Stem cell, Drug discovery, Diabetes, Dysfunction, Wound healing
