Stem cells are characterized by their ability to differentiate and mature into other type of cells with specialized functions, they are identical cells found in the body which have the ability to continuously divide, self-renew themselves and differentiate into various kinds of cells. With the capacity of self-renewal, and differentiation, stem cells have been believed to be useful for treatment of a wide variety of diseases in the future, including stroke, traumatic brain injury, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, spinal cord injury, baldness, blindness, deafness, wound healing, amyotrophic lateral-sclerosis, myocardial infarction, muscular dystrophy, In general stem cell transplantation of specific stem cells into the injured tissue to replace the lost cells is an adequate way to repair the tissue.
