A stem cell transplant is an infusion of healthy blood-forming cells or stem cells to replace the cells that are destroyed by various reasons. The reasons can involve stems destroyed by disease, by radiation or consuming high doses of anticancer drugs that are given to a patient as part of any procedure. These healthy stem […]
Lead Paragraph: Medical science in the recent past has made incredible progress with cutting edge technology, breath taking discoveries and innovations making patient treatment safe and increasing our longevity.One such explored research was and still is the therapeutic effects of stem cells in cancer. Can stem cells form new cells to replace the cancerous cells? […]
Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent stem cells which can give rise to various types of cells that builds up a human body. The embryonic cells are formed from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst and the blastocyst is the early stage of the embryo before the implantation. Adult stem cells have demonstrated an effective […]
Babies pass gas a multiple time on a daily basis and this is very common as well. It has been noted that babies pass gas 15-30 times in a day and this is no surprise because we keep feeding them the entire day. Gas may sometime cause discomforts for babies when its build-up in the […]

Days of clinical research empower scientists to discover novel methods using stem cells to develop more humanlike tiny kidneys. This is something, which is not as new to us as we had enough of such research-based organ development for kidney impairments earlier as well. More the number of new methods to investigate etiologies of kidney […]
