Cell Transplantation for Dementia

Dementia is a group of symptoms associated with a decline in thinking and memory loss due to brain malfunction.Dementia can be categorized as severe and non-reversible (degenerative).It affects the person’s cognition, behaviour and language interfering with his/her daily life.Cell treatment for Dementia help in regaining the brain’s plasticity.  

Dementia occurs due to damage or loss of brain-cells that stops the brain from thinking normally. Depending on the area of the brain affected, dementia can affect people differently.

Types of progressive Dementia's

Alzheimer's disease

Patients with Alzheimer's disease have tangles (of tau protein) and plaques (clumps of a protein)embedded in their brains,damaging the healthy neurons

Vascular dementia

Vascular dementia is caused by impairment to the vessels that supply blood to the brain resulting in the damageto the white matter of the brain. The symptoms include trouble with thinking, focusing and problem-solving.

Lewy body dementia

 Lewy bodies are clumps of protein found in the brains of people. Lewy body dementia symptoms include visual hallucinations, tremors, muscle rigidity and uncoordinated limb movement.

Fronto temporal dementia

This type of dementia is characterized by the deterioration of nerve cells in the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain.The symptoms lack in areas such as movement, thinking, judgment and speech.

Mixed dementia

Patients with mixed dementia have a combination of mixed symptoms related to Alzheimer's disease, Lewy body dementia and vascular dementia.

Ifa person exhibits memory issues or dementia symptoms then a doctor can determine the underlying cause and treatment.

For Dementia, cell treatment is a sought after approach to treat the patient. This safe treatment involves the patient’s own stem cells derived from the bone marrow. These mesenchymal stem cells have the potential to multiply and differentiate into any cell type produce growth factors and other supportive substances. When introduced into the body, they travel to the site of damage to begin the treatment process to resume the lost skills in the patient. Cells treatment for dementia helps to repair the damaged brain cell and to reconstruct the brain functional circuit. 

For dementia, cell treatment and neuro-rehabilitation therapy can bring forth positive results and significant improvements in patients.
