Stem Cells: The Future Of Medicine

One day in the not too distant future, modern medicine will change
completely, and stem cells will be used to treat and cure serious conditions
that as of right now are still considered untreatable and irreversible. We will
not even need doctors anymore. Every time something goes wrong, you will just
pop offer to your local gene therapy clinic to get a tune-up with some freshly
grown injectable stem cells engineered to cure your latest malady.
Stem cells
are undifferentiated, non-specific human cells with a full complement of DNA
that have not yet transformed into anything specific, such as the cells in your
hand, or the cells in your hair follicles. These cells are capable of being a
mechanic for your body; they can repair you by undergoing cell division to
manufacture whatever cells are needed in order to replace old, damaged, or
diseased cells that are no longer viable and need to be replenished.
