Stem cells have the ability to grow into many different types of cells. They have the capability to be used in a wide variety of treatments that require tissues and organs to be replaced. Researchers hope that stem cell treatment applications will include spinal cord injuries, conditions related to Parkinson’s disease, and brain injuries. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are currently the only stem cells that are regularly used as a stem cell treatment — most commonly in bone marrow transplants. HSCs are responsible for the production of all blood cell types.
