New ED hope?
September 11, 2012
A NEW study has found that adult
stem cells may offer a long-term
solution to patients with erectile
dysfunction and nerve damage, as
opposed to the current short-term
cures.
The Korean study, undertaken by
researchers from the RNL Stem Cell
Technology Institute working at St.
Mary's Hospital in Seoul, found that
in animal studies adipose (fat)
derived adult human stem cells,
grown in culture, were very
effective in treating cavernous
nerve injury.
When rats with cavernous nerve
injury, the equivalent of erectile
dysfunction (ED) in humans, were
treated with the adult stem cells,
they showed significant recovery of
nerve system capacity and longterm
recovery.
