I HAVE HEARD THE THEORY OF STEM CELLS IN SPORTS, BUT NEVER REALIZED THAT IT IS ALREADY HERE. I THINK IF ADULT STEM CELLS CAN HELP HEAL AN INJURED SHOULDER OR A BLOWN OUT KNEE- THEN THIS IS WONDERFUL NEWS! ALTHOUGH THIS IS PART OF A SERIES OF SPORTS ILLUSTRATED ARTICLES DETAILING STEROIDS USE IN SPORTS, I DON'T SEE ANY RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ADULT STEM CELLS AND STEROIDS. USING ONE'S OWN STEM CELLS TO HELP HEAL HAS ZERO SIDE EFFECTS. STEROIDS HAVE NUMEROUS NEGATIVE SIDE EFFECTS. I HOPE I WILL SEE THE DAY THAT GETTING AN ADULT STEM CELL TRANSPLANT WILL BE A NORMAL EVERYDAY OCCURENCE FOR NOT ONLY THE DYING HEART FAILURE PATIENT BUT THE HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETE WHO INJURES HIS SHOULDER AS WELL.
LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS FOOTBALL PLAYER!!
A second type of stem cell therapy that is gaining proponents in sports applications is autologous treatment -- reimplanting the cells extracted from one's own body.
Christopher Dalton, 18, a Texas all-state offensive tackle, injured the tendons in his left shoulder last year. He couldn't do a single push-up or lift more than a couple of pounds. Three days after an autologous stem cell treatment -- the cells were extracted from Dalton's tibia -- he had regained 90 percent of his shoulder function, and within a month, the 6'2", 240-pounder was bench-pressing 285 pounds. "His stem cell shoulder was actually stronger than his uninjured shoulder," says his father,
Stephen, a family practitioner who sent his son to California for the treatment.
