Abstract

Stem cells are cells with the ability to divide for indefinite periods and to give rise to specialized cells.

Stem cell therapy has now been emerged as an extraordinary promise to treat a wide range of diseases

and conditions. However, except blood stem cell transfer by bone marrow transplant which has been

used as an standard practice for more than 50 years, nearly all of therapeutic potentials of stem cell are

in early stages and experimental. A lot of work still is needed to turn this research into safe and

effective treatments. In addition, as stem cell research becomes closer to new medical practices, new

ethical questions must be resolved by researchers. Here a short discussion has been provided on some

of these stem cell hypes and worries.
