Stem-cells Research and Therapies

Abstract

Studies with leucogenenol, a compound isolated from the metabolic products of Penicillium gilmanii and human liver showed that leucogenenol accelerated the rate at which the “functional” cells, neutrophils, red blood cells and lymphocytes developed in the bone marrow from their corresponding committed precursor cells. It was found that the neutrophils that appear in the peripheral blood circulation following injection of leucogenenol originated from the neutrophils in the bone marrow. A scheme was presented to show that leucogenenol and adroxazine play key roles in regulating the circulation of blood cells. Stem cells act as the building blocks for the tissues and organs of physiologic systems. Research studies have shown stem-cells potential to treat a wide range of diseases. The Stem-cells play important roles in the treatment of various medical conditions and monitoring of bodily functions. Stem-cell therapy has shown results in treating conditions via peripheral blood circulation in the growth of new blood vessels such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, Parkinson’s disease. Clinical trials are being conducted to assess the safety and efficacy of stem cell based-therapies in treating various diseases such as Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML) which is a type of blood cancer that affects the bone marrow and blood cells characterized by the abnormal growth of white blood cells that affects the bone marrow and blood cells known as myeloid cells. Stem cell therapies have great potential to become one of the most important tools of regenerative medicine and untreatable diseases. In this review, different types of stem-cell-based therapies are described, which are used in treating various diseases.
