Today, cord blood is a proven treatment for over 70 diseases, and new diseases are added to this list all the time. In the future many more diseases may potentially be treated by stem cells. Stem cells are unspecialized cells that can become any other type of cell in the body. All stem cells share similar properties in that they can divide and renew themselves for many generations, and they can develop into specialized types of more defined cells. Stem cells from the umbilical cord blood can form other types of blood cells. These cell types include red blood cells, platelets, and T cells which make up the immune system.
