A new and unique study by Stem Cells Translational Medicine shows noticeable improvements in socialisation in children with autism, when they were treated with their own cord blood stem cells.
London based Ainara Moreno unfortunately didn't have the opportunity to store her son Asier’s umbilical cord blood at birth, but milk tooth storage offered a perfect second chance to help protect Asier's future health.
Since the first cord blood samples were stored, scientists have removed the plasma and red blood cells before freezing (cryopreserving) the cord blood sample. This is known as volume reduced storage.
Research published by two university laboratories in China gives new hope to tooth decay sufferers. It shows that modified dental pulp stem cells could promote dental tissue regeneration.
