Stem cells are the body’s master cells, producing all of its tissues and organs. Using their natural developmental program, they could regenerate healthy cells in diseased or damaged tissues. Adult stem cells could be used to repair damaged heart or spinal cord tissue, grow new liver or blood cells, reverse the effects of stroke, and be used to cure a variety of diseases such as diabetes and Parkinson’s.
