Mesenchymal Stem Cells And The Race To Find A Parkinson’s Disease Treatment

Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that is more complex than previously thought. While we have several treatment options and therapies to manage symptoms, the search for a way to halt or reverse the progression is relentlessly pursued. In this pursuit, researchers have turned to Parkinson’s stem cell treatment. These cells are a promising candidate to halt the progression of the condition. Scientists have used adult and umbilical cord-derived stem cells to treat Parkinsonian disorders in several individual cases.
