Stem cells used in this therapy are the immature cells which can grow into blood cells. Injecting healthy cells into the body is carried out by millions and millions of fresh new cells. Basic purpose behind this transplant is to produce enough blood cells to fight against the disease of Cancer.
These are created from the woman's placenta after she has delivered a normal healthy baby.
It is the safest and richest source of stem cells which multiplies by millions upon millions new fresh stem cells ready to cure the cancer.
Let us see how this therapy works out for the patients of cancer. A patient would normally get chemotherapy which is painful, makes the patient very very sick, and does other damage to the surrounding areas. Now, thanks to this therapy, the patient does not have to have chemotherapy. When the same person undergoes stem transplant, it helps him or her in reestablishing the cells which have been destroyed during the radiation therapy or the chemotherapy if they had it done before the therapy. Hopefully, the patient will learn that she or he does not have to take chemotherapy. Moreover this technique helps the patient of cancer in dealing with the effects of these therapies. As dose of chemotherapy is too high, it damages the bone marrow seriously. It leaves a person in a situation where he fails to produce enough red blood cells to carry oxygen to different parts of the body. In addition, the body also fails to clot the blood and fight the infection etc. Placenta stem cell therapy can prevent all these nasty side effects and pain that the patient has to endure.
Leukemia can be well treated by using this therapy. It is helpful in treating different types of cancer such as multiple myeloma, neuroblastoma etc. These from the placenta is very effective in attacking and curing the cancer. Injecting cells from the placenta is an easy and pain free procedure.
In this therapy, cells are injected in the body. Once the placenta cells have been injected, it starts the formation of new cells. These new cells replace the damaged or ill cells and help the body in fighting against the disease. This transplant is done without any kind of surgery and hence is easily accepted by the people. They get up and way away from the procedure perfectly fine and pain free with no nausea and stomach upset.
In short, it can be stated that this therapy for the treatment of cancer is all about injecting immature cells into the body of cancer suffering patient. These cells will grow into new blood cells in the body of the diseased person and will help him in managing with the disease and replacing the damaged and ill cells. As a result, the person heals up and gets rid of the disease he is suffering from and can live a normal life once again.
