How are stem cells used to repair the central nervous system

Biology

Tju [1.3M]2 years ago

Hello,

Your answer would be:

Stem cells come from an early embryo and these are divided into three types which are Embryonic stem cells, tissue stem cells and Induced pluripotent stem cells, or ‘reprogrammed’ stem cells. Currently, stem cells are being used in the laboratory for clinical trials to provide new therapies and other possible ways for treatments for certain diseases. Hope this answer helps.

Here’s the answer to your question would be:

They replace old neurons with new ones.

Here’s a article from the internet:


“Today, most treatments for damage to the brain or spinal cord aim to relieve symptoms and limit further damage. But recent research into the regeneration mechanisms of the central nervous system, including the discovery of stem cells in the adult brain that can give rise to new neurons and neural support cells, has raised hopes that researchers can find ways to actually repair central nervous system damage. Research on stem cells in nervous system disorders is one of the few areas in which there is evidence that cell-replacement therapy can restore lost function.”

Plz mark me brainliest!

Hope this helps! They also treat disorders

Answer:

Cancer can ruin the lungs and cause death of  lung tissue. If a lung is ruined, running would be out the picture and you would have enough oxygen to provide for your cells during exercise

Landslides occur when earth materials that are no longer held by friction move down a slope with the help of gravity. I think th
xxTIMURxx [149]

Yes, the given statement is true.  

A landslide is illustrated as the movement of debris, the mass of rock, or earth down a slope. The landslides are a kind of mass wasting that signifies any down-slope movement of rock and soil under the direct effect of gravity.  

The slope movement takes place when the forces functioning on down-slope primarily because of gravity exceeds the strength of the Earth substances, which compose the slope. The causes comprise elements, which elevates the influences of down-slope forces and factors, which contribute to reduced or low strength.

Duchene muscular dystrophy, or DMD, is a recessive, x-linked disease. What would you expect to see in the offspring of a woman w
Harman [31]

It is expected to see in the offspring of a woman who has DMD and a man who does not have the disease that all of their sons and none of their daughters will have the disease

Option A.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Duchene muscular dystrophy, also known as DMD is a recessive, x-linked disease. It occurs when there is a mutation in the dystrophin gene. This mutation further affects the muscles of the body leading it to degenerate and ultimately death.

When a woman with DMD and a man without DMD have an offspring, their daughters and the sons will get the mutated gene signature from the mother as she is the carrier. But since the father has normal genes, the daughters will become the carriers and will not be afflicted by it. This is because the normal X chromosome from the father will be passed on to them. The sons on the other hand will have the disease as they will get one of their mother's X chromosome which would be carrying the mutated gene.
