Ataxia is a medical condition where the individual lacks muscular coordination. It affects voluntary actions. Some of such actions include running, flexure movements, speaking ability, peristaltic and ocular movements. Stem cell applications have been found to improve the conditions of patients suffering from this disorder.
Ataxia often occurs as one of the symptoms of an underlying problem like cerebral palsy, cerebellar disorders like subacute cerebellar degeneration, stroke and several others. It can also occur as a disorder on its own due to a mutation in an individual’s gene pool. The neurological cause of ataxia is a deterioration of the part of the brain responsible for muscular movements – the cerebellum.
Stem cell applications can ameliorate the sufferings of ataxia patients. This is achieved by positively altering the development of certain segments of the brain. The outcome is an enhanced performance in muscular functions, peristaltic movements, and cranial capacity. The patient’s pain receptors are less triggered, and he trembles less frequently.
It’s now common knowledge the enormous potentials which stem cells possess. These cells can replace any cell in the human body regardless of the function the latter performs. Stem cell applications aim to engage this technique in Ataxia treatment by having stem cells work as neuronal cells. Thus, they take up the function of creating dopamine which is conspicuously absent in the brain of an Ataxia patient.
Stem cells are unspecialized cells located within the human body. They have an inherent capability to alter their form or proliferate into more specialized cells. Regenerative medicine is a branch of medicine which is built on the enormous potentials of stem cells. Stem cells can be used to treat Ataxia, Autism, Alzheimer's disease, and several other ailments.
Most of these ailments are treated based on stem cell application. This procedure entails the infusion of stem cells into the body where they locate dysfunctional tissues and restore them to their initial state. The general perception is that stem cell application can transform the severity of many ailments and make people happier as well. With the physiological abilities of stem cells which include their regenerative tendencies and their different levels of specialization potential, they provide opportunities for diseased tissue replacement with little incompatibility issues experienced.
Stem cells with mesenchymal origin are cells initially appearing in the early stages of intrauterine life as cells which differentiate into all other cells. They were also responsible for blood cell production at that early stage. Cells of the different functional systems formed during the fetal phase were stem cells before their transformation. Cells like chondrogenic cells, neurogenic cells, and osteogenic cells come to mind.
Before an umbilical cord sample can be considered, varieties of tests are carried out on the blood of the mother to ascertain her condition. These tests include Culture tests, Fungal tests, Viral tests, and several other tests for certain immunoglobulins.
A stem cell rich tissue which holds the key to so many opportunities which stem cells provide is the umbilical cord. It can be obtained without strains, contains a decent amount of stem cells and doesn’t come with any moral or legal implications. Research has shown there exist some important variations between the stem cells of the umbilical cord and those within the bone marrow of an adult. These differences could be responsible for the tissue rejections experienced when carrying out tissue drafting. Below are some of the variations observed:
These differences clearly outline the primitive nature of the stem cells from the umbilical cord compared to that from adult tissue. Stem cells from an adult tissue provide fewer opportunities during testing compared to those from the umbilical cord. The cells from the umbilical cord create more cells compared to their adult tissue counterpart. This is perhaps due the reduced time of mitosis occasioned by longer chromosomal ends. Clearly, this indicates the inherent capacity of primordial stem cells to enlarge compared to stem cells from adult tissue. This could be due to their primitive state.
Increase your Stem Cell Count:
Damaged tissues secrete biochemical substances which flow within the cardiovascular system to areas rich in stem cells. The stem cells become transformed and are transported to these tissues. However, the number of stem cells within their primary location can become completely spent increasing the risk of infections.
This situation boils down to the number of viable stem cells available especially when there exists an urgent demand for these cells. The absence of sufficient stem cells for tissue repair and renewal is the envisaged outcome of such a situation. Also, infections become more rampant when this happens while senescence is just a matter of time.
The agreed notion is that a change in the normal physiological activity of stem cell through an endless demand for the cells leads to an increased behavioral attitude, intercellular fluid accumulation and numerous disease conditions which might lead to a disruption of the balance sustained within the primary locations of the stem cells. This could put the existence of the individual at risk since his tissues can’t be repaired or replaced due to an absence of stem cells.
The effects of senescence become visible with age. This is inevitable especially as the stem cells responsible for regeneration continues to dwindle. However, when we are infused with stem cells, not only does the number of stem cells in circulation increase but our overall well-being is enhanced.
Benefits Begin to Appear When:
Every patient deserves to be well informed concerning the timeframe for the appearance of the several positive results of stem cell application. It's a fact that no two individuals treated to the same medical procedure exhibit the same results. Certain patients have had to wait longer, but the result still surfaced. Every patient who partakes in any stem cell application usually observes changes in their body from almost as soon as the procedure ends to some months after the procedure.

What they say about us
It`s unbelievable how our life has changed since we had stem cell treatment it`s been nine months.
Mom is calmer, dad is calmer. Why? Because our son is happy, now.

I am very very happy with all the care that I received and I recommend this treatment to anybody who want to give it a go. Come and have an open mind and meet these wonderful people who will treat you gently and with respect.
I’ll always be grateful. Thank you.

Well, the first month went well. I regained my psychophysical energy, especially in the sport I practice, I felt an improvement.
Now I hope, I hope that in the future, and the doctors tell me that it is better, I hope that in the future I'll feel all the better.

It's all been very nice, everybody has been very kind.
I don't think that anyone could fail to be impressed by the level of service and treatments and expertise everyone seems to have here, and, obviously, having medical treatment is not something that people want to have, but at the same time it's been as enjoyable as it could be to do that.
