Mesenchymal stem cells have shown great promise in treating heart disease. The stem cells can cause damaged tissue to regenerate, leading to better heart function and health. Better blood flow and nutrients may also play a part in this regrowth.$ X1 U% x/ _8 x* O9 @

The stem cells controversy often overlooks the benefits for diabetes. With stem cells this disease can be reversed, so many diabetics will no longer have to take insulin every day or suffer from other medical conditions caused by this disease. Beta cells can be restored to normal, so diabetes is no longer a problem.

Crohn’s Disease is one of the new diseases that can be treated with mesenchymal stem cells. It is not yet known how these cells benefit your colon and digestive tract during the treatment but clinical trials have shown they can improve this condition significantly.

8 L% _( v1 S* A. Z- GA large number of new autoimmune disorders can be treated with mesenchymal stem cells. This treatment option is not widely available yet but has been increasing. The number and scope of these diseases continue to rise, and stem cells may be able to reverse this trend.$ v6 A+ J+ z* ], \$ o# n! V2 V! h! X

Leukemias and lymphomas can be successfully treated with stem cell transplants, and recent studies have proven this benefit. Often these diseases come back with traditional treatments, but stem cells can replace the defective cells with good ones so that a recurrence is far less likely.- n3 w2 ` s1 e9 ? h0 q2 L* z

Breast cancer and many other types have shown to be highly treatable with stem cells, so normal cells are restored and the cancer does not recur.0 Z7 l, |; P1 f; h' L

Umbilical cord stem cell research has shown that sickle cell disease can be treated with stem cells. The transplanted stem cells can create new normal red blood cells, instead of the crescent shaped ones present in this disease.

When mice with this condition where given stem cells the condition disappeared and the mice became normal, with no disease present or detectable.
