Abstract :
In the last two decades, stem cell therapy has been developed rapidly. Stem cells have now emerged as a new treatment for many major disorders including neurodegenerative diseases such multiple sclerosis (MS). Recently, the attention of researchers working onMShave been attracted to cell therapy using therapeutic stem cells (TSCs). In this brief narrative reviewweexplore the application
of TSCs in last 5 years registered clinical trials. At the end, we will discuss the challenges and hopes ahead of therapeutic stem cells in treating MS patients.
