What are stem cells? – An short educational film by the Irish Stem Cell Foundation Stem cells are master cells of the body — want to learn more? Visit www.irishstemcellfoundation.org ISCF is an independent not-for-profit organisation whose primary objective is to educate about stem cells, their basic biology and the research and therapies using them. The Foundation will initially focus on education outreach programs, hoping to address the growing problem of bogus stem cell scams being offered to Irish patients over the internet. The Foundation will also assist the development of Irish policy and legislature in this area of medicine and science, ensuring Ireland is informed. The Foundation consists of a broad range of people including Irish doctors, scientists, patient advocates, educators, bioethicists and other associated parties seeking to expand and develop the Irish public’s understanding of stem cells.

I wasnt sure for adults. I know you can save stem cells form umbilical cord for infants. Do adults just save thier stem cells from a blood draw???

Stem cells are cells found in all multi cellular organisms. They are characterized by the ability to renew themselves through mitotic cell division and differentiate into a diverse range of specialized cell types.
The two broad types of mammalian stem cells are: embryonic stem cells that are isolated from the inner cell mass of blastocysts, and adult stem cells that are found in adult tissues.
The term adult stem cell refers to any cell which is found in a developed organism that has two properties: the ability to divide and create another cell like itself and also divide and create a cell more differentiated than itself.
Most adult stem cells are lineage-restricted (multipotent) and are generally referred to by their tissue origin (mesenchymal stem cell, adipose-derived stem cell, endothelial stem cell, etc.).
Adult stem cell treatments have been successfully used for many years to treat leukemia and related bone/blood cancers through bone marrow transplants.Adult stem cells are also used in veterinary medicine to treat tendon and ligament injuries in horses.

Question by harry: What are stem cells and how can they be used?
Can someone please explain to me what they are using simple terms? Everything I read on the internet is so complicated. Where can we get stem cells?

They are the special forces of cells. They are undefined tissue cells that are waiting for direction on where and what to grow into. They can be any cell in the body where and when needed.
Stem cells come mostly from the inside of your nose or your marrow. And they freeze the umbilical cord so if the baby gets sick they have his stem cells. There is no research on embryos it is illegal. Don’t listen to Conservative idiots who have no clue what research can do for humanity. Individual nerve cells can grow very long and that is why it is hard to regenerate them. Adult cells can grow into any cell in the body. ANY. It is the growing of limbs and systems that is holding up research NOT the ability to grow a certain type of tissue.
