MND, or Motor Neuron Disease, is a condition that affects the motor neurons of the brain. A motor neuron is essentially a nerve cell, whose cell body is located on the spinal cord, while the outer fibrous body is located outside the spinal cord. The fiber (axon) carries signals from the nervous system’s spinal cord and regulates the muscle and gland physiology. The disease is neurological in nature (has multiple forms and types), causes mental and physical disabilities, and can also cause death.

Causes

MND can have both genetic and environmental causes. High level of Glutamate secretion (a substance that is used for passing messages between the brain), a defective and impaired immune response, and environmental factors (including toxic substances, infections, and malnutrition/dietary deficiencies), are a cause of this disease.

Stem Cell Therapy For MND

Medications, occupational therapy, and other treatments that are beneficial for MND, stagnate after a time period. The patient fails to show further improvements after a given period of time. Stem cell therapy is the use of stem cells for the treatment of MND. Motor neuron disease stems cell treatment in India is now offered through the regenerative stem cells. Stem cells can multiply endlessly, and can differentiate to form the unique and specialized neural cells of the brain and CNS.

The autologous stem cells (cells derived from the bone marrow of patients) are used for the treatment of MND. As the cells come from the body of the patient itself, there is no side effect of the treatment procedure. The body’s immune system treats the cells as the other body cells and accepts them. The mesenchymal and the hematopoietic progenitor cells are fully capable of forming the new brain cells. Once transplanted, they migrate to the affected areas of the brain and engraft at the affected site.

The benefits of stem cell treatment and transplantation include:

  1. Increases healthy cells.
  2. Cell replacement, so that the brain gets new and healthy neural cells.
  3. Initiates tissue repair.
  4. A better and healthy micro-environment that helps in growth and development of healthy brain cells.
  5. The cells release the messenger molecules that offer more protection to the motor neuron cells.

Post stem cell therapy, the MND patients show a range of improvements. These include reduced saliva drooling, reduced choking, better respiratory capacity, better tongue movements, loud and clear speech, and other benefits. There are also posture and limb improvements. These include better-sitting balance, lower extremity functions, greater ambulation, and improvement in carrying out the fine motor activities.

Stem cell Therapy For MND At NGBSI

NeuroGen Brain and Spine Institute (NGBSI) is one of the few healthcare institutions in the world that are certified according to the International Standards Organization guidelines. The leading institution has successfully treated a number of patients who were affected by a number of neurological diseases. Patients have come to the institute from across the world. NeuroGen offers the stem cell therapy in a very safe, secure, and hygienic environment, and has facilities on par the world standards.

NeuroGen combines the cellular therapy with a unique rehabilitation program so that the multiple primary and related symptoms of the disease can be treated fully. NeuroGen also offers accommodation, cafeteria, and other privileges to the patients/caregivers, so that they can have a comfortable stay at the institution, and patient can easily receive therapy. It offers Visa assistance, pick and drop facility to the patients/caregivers. It is globally known as the best Motor neuron disease stem cell treatment in India, and around the world.
