Adult stem cells treat diabetes
Thailand’s National Innovation Agency announced success in treating foot wounds of diabetes patients with their own stem cells. Several diabetes patients, aged from 50 to 72, with chronic wounds on their feet, especially difficult in the case of diabetics, were injected with stem cells extracted from their own blood and the wounds completely healed in a three to four month period.
The reported results are from the previously announced study of teatment of diabetic limb ulcers undertaken by Samitivej Srinakarin Hospital, Chulalongkorn Hospital and Thai StemLife.
