Stem cell treatments are predicted to expand rapidly

Line 1: Line 1: +

'''Stem cells''' are one of several varieties of [[cell]] that have the ability to renew themselves through division, and differentiate themselves into specialized cell types.

+

There is a gradient that corresponds to how well a particular stem cell can differentiate. Adult stem cells are multipotent and helpful to many medical cures, though thwarted by the [[anti-life]] [[FDA]].

Stem cell treatments are predicted to expand rapidly:

{{cquote|The market is estimated to garner a revenue of USD 17 billion by the end of 2035, up from a revenue of USD 3 billion in the year 2022, owing to its growing demand for treating degenerative and rare diseases, such as osteoporosis, cancer, spinal cord injuries, type 1 diabetes, cartilage infections, and ischemic heart diseases.<ref>https://finance.yahoo.com/news/mesenchymal-stem-cells-market-revenue-105000534.html</ref>}}

+

A scientifically unjustified push for non-adult [[embryonic stem cells]] occurred beginning around 2001, to provide an indirect justification for [[abortion]]. Use embryonic stem cells requires destroying a living being, while achieving nothing worthwhile from it. Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent and typically develop in ways unhelpful to any medical cure.

+

There are five categories of stem cells that correspond to their origin in the body:

+

*[[adult stem cells]]

+

*[[amniotic stem cells]]

+

*[[cord blood stem cells]]

+

*[[embryonic stem cells]]

+

*[[induced pluripotent stem cells]]
