    Types of Stem Cells


    Adult stem cells fetal stem cells Cord blood stem cells Embryonic stem cells Induced pluripotent stem cells

    Many adult tissues contain stem cells that can replace cells that die or restore tissues after injury.

    Stem cell therapy


    This technique multiplies the hair, so you end up with more than you started with.

    methods In this method hair grow in skin that no longer makes hair, includes burns and people with sever deep wounds.

    The bottom of each hair sniped to looking for tiny stem cells that are programmed to make new hair. The cells into the lab multiply by making the cells to lump together in spheres. In this way they are suddenly surrounded on all sides by their neighbors and that type of cell to cell contact and communication probably helps kick off instructive properties of the cell. These spheres have successfully grown human hair in human skin.

    problems
    It only worked 70% of the time. That skin grafted on mice. Will it cycle? We need to understand better the color, the shape, the texture of the hair.
