Autism or Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are the names given to the different neurological and Neurodevelopment conditions. Autism is the most common kind of ASD affecting mankind. Neural hyperfusion and immune abnormalities affect the autistic children. Autism is characterized by obsessive behavior, impaired nonverbal and verbal communication and repetitive behavior. Children who suffer from Autism appear to be self-occupied, withdrawn and distant.
Autism treatment via stem cell transplantation has multiple benefits for the patients. Stem cells have self-renewal and differentiation properties, and can multiply and differentiate to form specialized cells, like the neural cells or blood vessels.
The major benefits of stem cell transplantation towards Autism treatment include the following:
● It increases angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels).
● As the MSCs or the Mesenchymal Stem Cells do not suffer from rejection; there is no need to match the HAL or Human Leukocyte Antigen.
● Immune deregulation, as found in Autism patients, causes systemic and intestinal abnormalities and also adversely influences neurological functions. Administration and transplantation of stem cells shut-off the abnormal autoimmune responses.
● Stem cells produce a range of growth and trophic factors. These factors provide for repair and regeneration of the damaged cells, including neural cells. The secretion of these substances from the transplanted stem cells also creates a favorable environment for cellular growth and multiplication.
● Administration of MSCs improves sensory aspects, reduces unusual and abnormal sensitivity to the different sensory stimuli, and also improves on abnormalities like abnormal vision, touching and insensitiveness towards pain.
● Stem cell possesses healing properties like immune modulation, can lower inflammation and can also stimulate regeneration.
● The stem cells can be easily administered a number of times during a day for Autism treatment, in uniform dosage forms, all having greater cell counts.
One of the leading institutions, NeuroGen Brain and Spine Institute (NGBSI) offers stem cell therapy for Autism and other neural and muscular disorders. When combined with a rehabilitation program that offers patients therapies like Speech, Yoga, Dance and Music, Occupational and other therapies, stem cell treatment can improve the life of Autism patients in many ways. Apart from the treatments for Cerebral Palsy, Dementia, and Spinal Cord Injury, one can also avail motor neuron disease stem cell treatment at this leading health care institution.
