I found this on cordblood.com

<div class="FTQUOTE"><begin quote>The ability of cord blood stem cells to differentiate, or change into other types of cells in the body is a new discovery that holds significant promise for improving the treatment of some of the most common diseases such as heart disease, stroke, and Alzheimer's.</end quote></div>


Apparently, from what I've read, there have been better rates of sucessful adult and cord blood stem cell treatment, with less risk of tumors and rejection than with embryonic cells.

I hope that helps the cord blood question <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> .

well sure they say that - they make more money if people believe that.

i think others may argue differently about success rates.....

Hi,
Here is a link to a Mayo Clinic article that I think is good and is recent. As someone wrote above, no there have been no cures from embryonic stem cell treatments as of yet, but the technology is 20-30 years behind adult stem cell work. I believe it does hold promise. Each of us has to decide if these early cells constitute life. I am inclined to think not, because of the early stage in development. I do not equate this with "killing babies". That is just my opinion though.
