Stem cell transplantation therapy for stroke holds great promise. However, many fundamental questions remain to be answered. Currently, many clinical trials in the United States are under way testing stem cell transplants for treating ischemic stroke. It is clear from early trials that many variables will need to be optimized. As more is learned in the labs about stem cells, especially the genetic aspect, the application of stem cells for ischemic stroke repair and regeneration is anticipated to bring positive results.
