Is there other evidence of success using stem cell therapy for congestive heart failure or other diseases (Parkinsons) or injuries (spinal cord)?
There have been reports of various types of cells being successfully used for treating heart failure, Parkinson’s and other injuries (e.g., spinal cord) in animal models and human patients. Results have been variable and complex, and often are apples and oranges compared to each other. However, specific protocols that would be reproducibly used clinically have yet to be agreed upon because more research work is needed in both pre-clinical and clinical studies.
