  1. STEM CELL TREATMENT FOR MOTOR NEURON DISEASE Motor Neuron Disease is characterized by progressive degeneration of the nerve cells responsible for controlling muscle movements involved in body movements, speech and breathing. MND risk factors mainly include age, genetics and environmental factors. Symptoms of MND No muscle control Slurry Speech Difficulty in breathing Muscle Stiffness Tripping and Dropping Thing Weakness in Muscles GENETIC FACTORS 1. EXPOSURE TO TOXINS 2. CAUSES VIRAL EXPOSURE OF 3. MND DAMAGED MOTOR NEURONS 4. 5. AGEING Stem Cell Therapy Being swift in its progression, MND is undoubtedly a fatal neurodegenerative disease. Stem Cell Therapy is a contemporary technology that can be exploited to improve disease status by delaying the progression of MND. Although the type and extent and improvement are patient-specific some o the common benefits you can expect after stem cell treatment for MND are: Reduced muscle weakness and twitches. Improved speech control. Improvement in breathing and swallowing. Reduced spasticity. Better motor skills and cognition. Reduced mood swings.
