How are stem cells used to repair the central nervous system

Biology
1 answer:
Tju [1.3M]3 years ago
8 0
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

RNA primers in Okazaki fragments are usually very short, less than 10 nucleotides and sometimes as short at 2 nucleotides in len
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

During DNA replication each parental DNA strand serves as a template to a new complementary strand. DNA polymerase is the main enzyme responsible for this process, it catalyzes the addition of nucleotides to form the new DNA chain.  

The complementary nature of the DNA strands, presents a difficulty for DNA replication: DNA polymerase catalyzes the polymerization of DNA only in the 5’ to3’ -in the leading DNA strand. Thus, the opposite DNA strand, the lagging strand, faced an obstacle that is solved by the Okazaki small fragments. The primase enzyme synthesizes small RNA fragments complementary to the lagging DNA strand. These RNA fragments serve as primers for the DNA polymerase. To remove this RNA primers and form a continuous complementary lagging strand, RNase H and DNAse ligase will further cut and join the DNA again.  

DNA polymerase has a higher processivity than primase, if processivity is the average number of nucleotides that it is capable to continuously add to the template strand. Primase dissociates from the template often during DNA replication as it has to constantly add new RNA primers to the strand.

Compare and contrast correlational and experimental research by designing two types of studies that aim to answer the same quest
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Correlation means that there is a relationship between two or more variables (such as ice cream consumption and crime), but this relationship does not necessarily imply cause and effect. When two variables are correlated, it simply means that as one variable changes, so does the other. We can measure correlation by calculating a statistic known as a correlation coefficient. A correlation coefficient is a number from -1 to +1 that indicates the strength and direction of the relationship between variables. The correlation coefficient is usually represented by the letter r.

7. Application: Have you ever had a cut before and wondered why it stops bleeding? It is actually a very complex process
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

When there is a cut, and platelets are coming, its positive feedback. But when the clot is formed and increased platelets concentration at the site create a negative feedback to stop sending more platelets for clot formation.
