Abstract

There are at least two types of stem cells in the bone marrow of mice and humans: hemopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). As all cells in the body are differentiated from HSCs or MSCs, it is conceivable that all diseases originate from disorders in these cells. We here provide evidence that most diseases are, in fact, stem cell disorders, and that a newly developed method of bone marrow transplantation (BMT) can be used to prevent and treat most intractable diseases, since it permits the recipient’s abnormal HSCs and MSCs to be replaced with the donor’s normal HSCs and MSCs.
