Guest guest Posted June 28, 2000 Report Share Posted June 28, 2000 Extremely interesting...I have a question though, are these cells the same as those that would be found in umbilical cord blood? I had wanted to bank my son's cord blood when he was born, but he was born prematurely and I never had the chance to fully research the issue and set it up. If I have another child I may still want to do that. From what I know these cells can be used to treat several diseases for the child or another relative.
