Stem cells as cancer therapy
I am always amazed at what stem cell research has done so far and the amazing potential it still seems to have. From cures to heart defects to taking anti-cancer drugs to cancer cells, it appears that stem cell research can do everything. Again, one of the Pros in the Pros and Cons of Adult Stem Cell Research.
It is widely hoped that neural stem cells will eventually be useful for replacing nerves damaged by degenerative diseases like Alzheimer disease and multiple sclerosis. But there may also be another use for such stem cells–delivering anti-cancer drugs to cancer cells.
