Stem cell transplant may help people with Parkinson’s disease
Tech Times
An international team of researchers have found that if neurons derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are transplanted to the brain, it can help in the restoration of the motor function in a rat. Researchers suggest that the same can be

Stem Cells Derived Brain Cells Offer Hope for Parkinson’s Disease Patients
International Business Times UK
A major development in embryonic stem cell-derived brain cells could pave the way for the first ever stem cell transplantations in people with Parkinson’s disease. Stem cell-derived dopamine cells in mice were seen to display the exact characteristics
