Stem cells are unspecialized cells that have in them the presence of two defining properties which makes them sole and a very attractive topic of study. These are: the skill to differentiate into other cells and the skill to self-regenerate. The capability to differentiate is the potential of the stem cells to develop into other cell types. A totipotent stem cell is a type of stem cell that can go on to develop into all cell types including the embryonic membranes. With these kind of revolutionary benefits associated with them it becomes all the more evident that there will be many research institutes and Cell Therapy Hospitals working all over the world concentrating in treatments using stem cell therapy and providing extra-ordinary results. Scientists have been working towards using stem cell therapy towards the treatment of diseases including Alzheimer’s diseases, spinal cord injury, stroke, burns, osteoarthritis, , heart disease, diabetes, and rheumatoid arthritis.
