Stem Cell Therapy for ALS

[noni]

Hi,
Can anyone tell me of any studies done on ALS patients using "live fetal precursor stem cells from certified closed colony of rabbits" to slow down the progression of ALS?
I got this information thru www.stem-cell-transplantation.com, www.bcro-asia.com
Any comments of information is greatly appreciated.

Noni - I have submitted your question to Dr. Ghen for the next Ask the Doctor forum. One of his special interests is treatment for ALS. I have not known live cells to be able to be a lasting treatment for anyone, but I think it would be good to have Dr. Ghen's comments. For anyone wishing to submit a question to Dr. Ghen, the deadline is April 7. Please e-mail me with your questions by then.
