Abstract

Stem cell therapy is the future of medicine as research is ever-growing for uncurable diseases and injuries. Stem cells are difficult to obtain due to ethical conflicts, retrieval difficulties, or high expenses. However, a stem cell line referred to as menstrual derived stem cells (MenSCs) show great potential in addressing all these issues. MenSCs are a type of adult stem cell that can be found in menstrual blood. These cells are considered a valuable source of stem cells due to their ease of accessibility, abundance, and lack of ethical concerns. MenSCs have been found to possess properties similar to other adult stem cells, such as the ability to differentiate into various cell types, including nerve cells, bone cells, and cartilage cells. Research has shown that MenSCs have the potential to be used in regenerative medicine for various conditions, including cardiovascular disease, nervous system repair, spinal cord injuries, liver and lung health, as well as skin repair. Additionally, MenSCs have been found to possess anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties, making them a potential candidate for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Despite the potential benefits of MenSCs, further research is needed to fully understand their properties and potential uses. Currently, there are ongoing clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MenSCs for various conditions.
