Abstract:
Stem cell-based therapy has shown exciting efficacy in pre-clinical studies on different neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). However, no clinically applicable stem-cell-derived neurons are available to the patients with NDs. There exist some obstacles associated with stem cell therapy, which need to be overcome in future clinical studies. In this chapter, more challenges and new strategies will be explored to accelerate the clinical translation of a human embryonic stem cell (hESC)/induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neural cell product to patients with NDs.
