Question
Chapter 43.5, Problem 2TC
Summary Introduction
To determine:
If physician advising an athlete about treatments for an injured joint would a physician recommend stem cell therapy.
Introduction:
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells, which have the ability to give rise same type of daughter cells. These daughter cells then undergo a differentiation process and give rise to different types of cells.
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The possible risks of stem cell therapy.
Introduction:
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells, which have the ability to give rise same type of daughter cells. The stem cell therapy has a low risk of rejection because this therapy uses own body cells.

Do the benefits outweigh the possible problems? Is an increase in stem cell numbers only worth while when an injury has occurred such as in stem cell therapy? Thank youarrow_forward
