Prospect of cell therapy for Parkinson’s disease
Jeanne Adiwinata Pawitan 대한해부학회 2011 Anatomy & Cell Biology Vol.44 No.4
Th e hallmark of Parkinson’s disease is on-going degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, which may be due to various etiologies. Various approaches to alleviate symptoms are available, such as life-long pharmacological intervention, deep brain stimulation, and transplantation of dopaminergic neuron-containing fetal tissue. However, each of these approaches has a disadvantage. Several studies have shown that various kinds of stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells,and other cells can diff erentiate into dopaminergic neurons and may be promising for treating Parkinson’s disease in the future. Th erefore, this review addresses those cells in terms of their prospects in cell therapy for Parkinson’s disease. In addition, the need for safety and effi cacy studies, various cell delivery modes and sites, and possible side eff ects will be discussed.
