Stem-cell therapy: is a therapy that uses stem cells to treat or sometimes prevent a disease or condition. The most widely used stem-cell therapy is a bone marrow transplant, but some therapies derived from umbilical cord blood are also in use.
The use of pluripotent stem cell-derived cell types for disease modeling, drug screening and regenerative medicine is an exciting area of activity in health research. Prior to the availabilit...
