Lupus is a tenacious autoimmune disease, affecting about 1.4 million people in the U.S. Considered a high risk disease for mortality and organ damage, a recent study has discovered that fat-derived stem cells can restore lupus to normal body functions.
Really KOOL! This affects ONLY adult stem cells. I recently had cervical spinal surgery using stem cells for disc material. We are currently waiting to see if they REGENERATE my discs. Here is an article about research using adult stem cells to treat LUPUS, an autoimmune condition where the body attacks it's own cells. Many of us with lupus have organ damage-to be able to restore normal functions..well it's AMAZING!
