Stem cells are special cells that can multiply and turn into other types of cells. They have the potential to heal many illnesses and are already being used to treat multiple diseases like autoimmune disorders, cardiac disease, lung problems like COPD and even Crohn's disease. Stem cells are found in all tissues in the body. But in order to obtain them, the tissue needs to have a large enough number of stem cells. The two common tissues are bone marrow and fat. Bone marrow can treat blood derived diseases. However, fat is more easily harvested and can produce more stem cells in one procedure than bone marrow. Fat cells could become the easiest and most likely source for future stem cells for adult stem cell therapy.
