Stem cell therapy is the most effective way to reverse the effects of spinal cord injuries. Stem cells have been successfully used to rebuild the insulation tissue for the neurons that run along the spinal cord. This means that stem cell therapy restores mobility,
improving the loss of motor skills that occurs after a spinal cord injury. Stem cells have also been able to differentiate into oligodendrocyte cells, which then produce myelin. Myelin is connected to the ability of the spinal cord to carry messages throughout the central nervous system. This means that stem cell therapy has the ability to restore sensory and motor activity to the damaged area and all other areas affected by the spinal cord injury.
Patients who have been treated for spinal cord injuries using stem cell therapy have been able to regain limb movement, organ function, and lost sensation.
Video Descriptions:The patient has suffered from spinal cord injury during a car accident and his paralyzed. The technique used in the video to directly inject stem cells into the damaged spinal cord of the patient. The stem cells will home into the damaged areas and repair the tissue.
