Stem Cells: Are They the Cure for Diabetes? Stem Cells: Are They the Cure for Diabetes? Diabetes is a disease that affects 25.8 million people in the United States alone‚ not to mention the 7.0 million people who are undiagnosed and the staggering 79 million people who are pre-diabetic (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention‚ 2011). That number alone should send out an alarm that a cure is needed. Not just a treatment‚ but a real cure that will free sufferers from the strict

Define Stem Cells and give background information on them. Stem cells are a class of undifferentiated cells that are able to differentiate into special cell types. There are two types of Stem Cells: Adult Stem cells and embryonic stem cells. Embryonic stem cells come from embryos that are 3-5 days old. They are often taken from the umbilical cord. They are used more than adult stem cells. Adult stem cells mainly come from bone marrow. Their primary function is to maintain homeostasis by replacing

First‚ where do stem cells come from‚ and what properties do they exhibit that make them stem cells? Human embryonic stem cells come from an embryo that develops from an egg. These eggs were originally collected for reproductive purposes. The eggs are fertilized in vitro‚ and the embryo is donated for research. The donation only happens after the eggs are no longer needed. The donor is informed of the intended use‚ and consent has been given. These stem cells are found when the embryo is between

What are stem cells? Stem cells are found in many places in the body. They are important because they can divide to make copies of themselves. They can also develop into different types of cells‚ for example skin‚ blood‚ brain and bone. Why is stem cell research important for Parkinson’s? There is currently no known cure for Parkinson’s. While medicines can help to manage the symptoms‚ they may only be effective for a certain period of time before side effects develop.2 Brain surgery can offer

Stem cells – the cure to Cystic Fibrosis? Cystic Fibrosis is one of the UK’s most common life threatening diseases with it affecting over 9‚000 people. Statistics show that one in twenty five people in the UK carry the faulty gene‚ each week five babies are born with the disease and another two young lives are lost. Cystic Fibrosis is a genetic disorder caused by a recessive allele. It affects the internal organs‚ especially the lungs and digestive system‚ by clogging them with thick sticky mucus

English 111 November 13‚ 2013 Stem Cells A Better Future for Tomorrow The field of human genetics has been a “hot topic” since the 1950’s when James Watson and Francis Crick first discovered the basic structure of DNA (“Human Genetics”). Stem cells are found in humans and animals that have distinctive properties. They are the building blocks of life simply put. They have the ability to divide and reproduce themselves for a long period at a time. Stem cell research is a very controversial topic
