Stem Cells: A Review Encompassing the Literature with a Special Focus on the Side-Lined Miraculous Panacea; Pre-Morula Stem Cells. Curr Stem Cell Res Ther. 2020 Mar 11;: Authors: Saini A, Saini R, Bansode H, Singh A, Singh L Abstract Stem cells are the undifferentiated cells in the body that possess the ability to differentiate and give rise to any type of cell in the body. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in therapy involving the stem cells as different treatment methods got developed. Depending on the source, there are two major kinds of stem cells, embryonic and adult stem cells. The former type is found in the embryo at the different developmental stages before the implantation and excels the latter owing to pluripotency. On the premise of the attributes of stem cells, they are touted as the "panacea for all ills" and are extensively sought for their potential therapeutic roles. There is a lot of robust pieces of evidence that have proved to cure the different ailments in the body like Huntington disease, Parkinson's disease, and Spinal cord injury with stem cell therapy but associated adverse effects like immune rejection and teratoma formation are well-known. In this regard, the pre-morula (isolated at an early pre-morula stage) stem cells (PMSCs) are one of its kind of embryonic stem cells that are devoid of the aforementioned adverse effects. Taking the beneficial factor into account, they are being used for...
