Novel challenges of stem cell therapy in neurodegenerative disorders
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Research in Pharmacy and Biotechnology - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 2
Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by progressive dysfunction, loss & death of neurons. In recent years, neurons and glial cells have been successfully generated from stem cells, by this from stem cell brain transplantation therapies have been carried out by the investigators. If we are able to replace the lost neurons and glial cells through the stem cell therapy then we are able find a way to cure many neurodegenerative diseases. In this study three main types of neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s diseases & it's pathology will be known with underlying causes, followed by current treatments and finally from this review we can understand the current evidence for the role of stem cells in treating these neurodegenerative disorders.
