Improving Neuro-Regeneration Efficiency in the Stem Cell Treatments of Parkinson’s Disease: Fetal Tissue vs. Mesenchymal Stem Cell
نویسنده
چکیده
This research reviews the treatment concept and procedures that are currently being practiced and studied on patients using stem cell grafts of fetal tissue as well as mesenchymal stem cells, alongside the nature of neurogenesis phenomenon in correlation with subventricular zone architecture in individuals with Parkinson’s disease in order to evaluate which treatment procedure has a higher efficiency rate in terms of neuro-regeneration capacity. This research also suggests considering the condition of subventricular zone prior to stem cell transplant since the neurogenesis process in human brain is compromised due to already impaired structure of subventricular zone as a result of dopamine depletion and lack of growth factors’ regulatory effect; a precondition that could improve the efficacy of stem cell therapies for treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

Degenerative Disc Disease: A Review of Cell Technologies and Stem Cell Therapy
Background & Aim: Low back pain is broadly documented as one of the most widespread pathologies in the advanced domain. Although the reasons of low back pain are uncountable, it has been meaningfully related to intervertebral disc degeneration. Present therapies for Intervertebral Disc (IVD) degeneration such as physical therapy and spinal fusion reduce symptoms' severity, but do not treat the ...

Mesenchymal stem cells can be obtained from deferent tissues like adipose tissue, umbilical cord, placenta, skin, bone marrow, etc. These cells have regulatory effects on all types of immune cells such as dendritic cell, natural killers and lymphocytes. Mesenchymal stem cells induce inhibitory phenotypes of Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs) following their activity. They also change T cells pheno...
متن کاملTooth Regeneration with Stem Cell Sources
Introduction: During the last decade, advances in tissue engineering and stem cell-based tooth regeneration have provided realistic and attractive means of replacing lost or damaged teeth. The first adult stem cells isolated from dental tissues were dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs). When transplanted with hydroxyl apatite/tri calcium phosphate (HA/TCP) powder, they formed a dentin-like structure...
