| Factually, many human tissue have ability to repair their damages. The reason is these tissues possess specific type of cells called “Stem Cells”, these unspecialized cells can differentiate into specific tissues or organs (Simόn and Pellicer, 2007; Dupta, 2009; Hongbao et al., 2010). Also, these cells can make up the different types of human tissues like nerves, bone, muscles, skin, and other organs (Nikolic et al. 2009; Hongbao et al., 2010; Sharma et al., 2014). However, most organs in our bodies contain a population of stem cells that could have a potential to repair many injuries (Simόn and Pellicer, 2007; Hongbao et al., 2010; Sharma et al., 2014). Likewise, during the normal development, these cells restore their damaged and worn-out tissues by some normal processes (Nikolic et al. 2009). For instance, the epithelial tissue contains a normal population of stem cells which are administrator for their generation and continuous regeneration (Ojeh et al., 2015). These tissues are termed as “Selfrenewing tissues” such as, skin, hair follicle, blood, lung, liver, etc. These tissues and organs contain stem cells that are called adult stem cells which serve to maintain and repair these tissues where they are resident (Simόn and Pellicer, 2007), but for some people who suffer from delayed or stopped repairing mechanism, these cells are not enough to heal their injuries, so they need support from donors stem cells (Nikolic et al. 2009). Especially, from several years, the disease rate has significantly increased, but stem cells provide great promises for those patients due to their potential roles and abilities in self-renewal and differentiation for a life time (Nikolic … |
