Cell replacement therapy is the remedial solution for treating Parkinson’s disease

Abstract: The selective degeneration of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD) has made an idol target for cell replacement therapies and other emerging surgical treatments. Certainly, by transplantation method, the therapeutic regimens such as human fetal ventral midbrain (hfVM) cells, human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), human neural stem/precursor/ progenitor cells (hNSCs/hNPCs), human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), human induced neural stem cells (hiNSCs), and human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiP… Show more

“…Fetal brain tissue can be used for cell replacement therapy in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, but it is limited by donor deficiency and cannot be standardized (67). Fortunately, the induced differentiation into specific cell groups after the expansion of NSCs in vitro can solve this problem.…”
