Over years, our body naturally degenerates and there is
nothing stopping it. Scientist from A* Stars Genome Institute of Singapore have
discovered the embryonic stem cells that are able to differentiate cells and
proliferate. They refer to these cells as hESC. The researchers were finally
able to take culture hESC cells and found that they are similar to blastocysts;
however, problems with placing an hESC stem cell is unknown.
I believe
this regenerative embryonic stem cell could be monumental. Imagine internal
organs not degenerating because of these hESC stem cells that proliferate and
allow internal organs to maintain.
Yes this is truly amazing. The potential positive outcomes of stem cell research is infinite. It seems as though the stems can be grown quite effectively, but the act of grafting them onto parts of the human body can prove difficult. This research is very promising and I think we will be hearing exponentially more on the subject as time goes on.
ReplyDeleteYou're absolutely right. Being able to use these regenerative stem cells as we age would be absolutely amazing! I know a lot of people dread growing old because of all the aches that comes with it. So, I'm sure all of the elders who suffer from ailments such as arthritis would be more than happy to know that research like this is being conducted.
