Neural Stem Cell Therapy is Shining Hope on Brain Injury Repair and Reversal
As a parent, you wish the doctors had a magic wand to wave over your child and make her well—or perhaps a “reset button” that could reverse the injury to your her brain.
Unfortunately, reversing brain damage is still just a dream of medical science. But some day it may be possible.
Scientists are experimenting with replacing and “fixing” damaged brain cells. In fact, they have already succeeded in replacing and preserving missing or dying nerve cells in mice. The mice used in these experiments all had brain trauma, like children with cerebral palsy.
In an experiment conducted by a neurologist Evan Snyder at Harvard Medical School, mice were injected with stem cells implants. The results were incredible: the missing cells were spontaneously replaced.
While it is too early to know for certain if Snyder’s results can be replicated in children with cerebral palsy, scientists are hopeful. If they can find a surefire way to manipulate damaged brain cells to heal or replenish themselves, then disorders like cerebral palsy could be treated and / or reversed.
