Stem Cell Culture Media Improves EAE
Posted: Mon Apr 11, 2016 5:25 am
STEP 1: Isolate stem cells from extracted baby teeth
STEP 2: Culture and grow these stem cells in the lab
STEP 3: Remove the cells and inject the culture media into mice with EAE
It may seem simple, but a Nagoya University study has shown that doing this results in a significant decrease in the disease severity of mice with EAE (animal model of MS). As the cells themselves weren't injected, this suggests that the benefits of stem cells may go far beyond being able to create new cells to replace damaged ones.
