Stem Cell Therapy to Improve symptoms in Sickle Cell Anemia

Sickle cell anemia is an inherited disorder that is associated with a variety of clinical symptoms. While human umbilical cord stem cells have been used successfully in patients with sickle cell disorders, more promising results may come from transfected stem cells with genes that are shown to be deficient or mutated in the person's genetic screening.
