What has Cord Blood Research Indicated?
Cord Blood Research Indications
There has been much study done on stem cell research as well as cord blood research. It is a fact that stem cells, which are the building blocks of human tissue, blood and the immune system, have the ability to self-renew and can form many special types of cells such as red blood cells and nerve cells. This makes stem cells ideal for transplantation and other medical uses. Cord blood research indicates that umbilical cord blood is one of the most rich sources of stem cells, along with bone marrow and circulating blood. What LifebankUSA has done is introduce a fourth source of stem cells with its patented process for retrieving stem cells from placenta blood. Research has shown that stem cell transplants have been used for many lifesaving treatments of children and adults, including some forms of cancer.
