Stem cells may curb Alzheimer disease progression
A new preclinical study published in Stem Cells and Development states that the stem cells derived from blood in the umbilical cord may help curb Alzheimer’s disease. A team of researchers from the University of South Florida and Saneron CCEL Therapeutics, Inc conducted this study. The study was conducted on a mouse model and demonstrated that targeted immune suppression using human umbilical chord stem cells reduced disease progression.
