Muscular Dystrophy

Muscular Dystrophy is a hereditary condition marked by progressive weakening and wasting of the muscles. As per scientific research, there are different types of stem cells that can be used for the treatment of muscular dystrophy.

What is muscular dystrophy(MD)

Duchenne Muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a common term for several hereditary, progressive degenerative disorders affecting skeletal muscles, and often other organ systems whose manifestation is augmented by inflammatory mechanisms. Given this modality appears to function via suppression of underlying inflammation.

There are many different types of muscular dystrophy:

  • Becker muscular dystrophy
  • Duchenne muscular dystrophy
  • Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy
  • Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy
  • Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy
  • Myotonia congenital
  • Myotonic dystrophy

Stem Cell Treatment for Muscular Dystrophy Disease

Muscular Dystrophy, abbreviated as MD comes from the group of thirty genetic disorder which cause muscles degeneration resulting in the weakness in muscles. It is the condition that leads to faulty or weakened growth of muscles in the human body. After the rigorous research of several decades, stem cell treatment for muscular dystrophy disease has finally achieved visible success.

However, the treatment is still in the initial phase of its practical implementation, and therefore it needs a specialized team of experienced stem cell experts, and Stem Cell Cure India is your answer for the treatment for Muscular Dystrophy in India. A team of skilled medical professionals, hospital and surgical facility equipped with required modern devices and a 24 hours professional surveillance ensure the perfect environment for Stem Cell Therapy and makes Stem Cell Cure India a leading name in the nation for the treatment of this muscle condition.

Role of Stem Cell in The Treatment

Stem cells are at the initial stage of development and therefore they can convert into any type of cell and can undergo regeneration and transformation and repair the damaged cluster or replace it with the functioning cell bodies. We offer stem cell treatment for muscular dystrophy disease which can deliver functional muscle proteins and stem pool.

Don't worry. We are here to help you to recover soon.

Introduction:

There is no cure for Muscular Dystrophy but stem cell therapy mainly focuses on the inflammatory response in Muscular Dystrophy as a target for mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy. In contrast to other cell based therapies attempted in DMD, Mesenchymal Stem Cells have the advantages to treat Muscular Dystrophy:-

  • Ability to fuse with and genetically complement dystrophic muscle to regenerate and repair the dystrophic muscle
  • Produce anti-inflammatory activities to stop the inflammation in MD
  • Produce trophic factors that may augment activity of endogenous repair cells.

Muscular Dystrophy Rehabilitation:

Rehabilitation is the part of stem cell therapy. Muscular Dystrophy patients should have some kind of rehabilitation to help maximize their potential and to help teach techniques which make everyday life easier. Rehabilitation including physiotherapy provides enhanced environment to make stem cell more functional by helping the cell migrating and proliferation fast.

Key Points:-

Physical therapy may improve your ability to perform daily activities and make you feel better. Occupational therapy may help you perform daily activities more easily-especially those involving your hands and arms, such as grooming, dressing, and eating. Assistive devices may be used to help you perform daily tasks.
