Science and Research
Scientific understanding of stem cells continues to evolve at a rapid pace. Research has already demonstrated that cord blood stem cells can differentiate into other types of cells in the body. This discovery holds exciting possibilities for a field of research known as regenerative medicine, which involves using stem cells to rebuild damaged organs or create living tissue.
Today, stem cells are regarded as an important biological resource, and researchers are conducting numerous studies to unlock their potential. Research to date suggests that cord blood stem cells may have potential use in treating diseases like diabetes, heart and liver disease, muscular dystrophy, Parkinson's disease, spinal cord injury, and stroke.
Researchers are also examining the possibility of stem cell expansion, which may someday enable families who have banked stem cells to use them for multiple treatments or donate stem cells to others.
