Stem Cells and Infectious Diseases
Stem cells can differentiate into immune cells that combat infections. They have potential in developing treatments for infectious diseases like HIV and hepatitis and can help regenerate tissues damaged by infections, though more research is needed. Stem cells can be used to develop more effective vaccines and therapies by providing insights into pathogen interactions with host cells. As research advances, these applications could lead to innovative treatments that transform how we address infectious diseases.
