Stem Cell Research Advantages

Stem Cell have a remarkable development in many different types of cells in body during the growth of life. When a stem cells divides, each cells have the potential to remain as the cells, or change into another types of cells. Stem cells are distinguished from another types of cells, and they have two important characteristics. There is five advantages and five disadvantages of stem cells research. Stem cells can be so damaging to us, the deaf community in different ways.

In advance, the scientist already used the stem cells in laboratory to screen drugs and to identify a defection in birth. Stem cells research continued to advance in how an organism develop from the single cell, and how can the damaged adult cells be replaced (1).

The stem cells research have five advantages. The first advantages, the medical benefits is provided in the fields of therapeutic cloning and regenerative medicines. Second, the great potential of discovered treatments and cures to a variety kinds of diseases is provided like; schizophrenia, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, spinal cord injury, diabetes, and many more. Third, the millions of drugs and medicines are able to be tested by the scientists, without the use of animals or humans tester. The process of this testing will recognize if the drugs or medicine is bad or good and useful. Fourth, the limbs and organs can be grown in the lab from stem cells that can be used in transplants or help treat illnesses. Fifth advantages of the usage in adult’s stem cells is that a patient’s own cell can be used to treat a patient like the quote,

“one for all”. The risks will be reduced because the patient’s body will not reject their own

The disadvantages, such as affecting the health of the bodies. Deaf people can be affected from using this kind of cells. The process of using stem cells in a deaf person, is to restore hearing to deaf gerbils by replacing damaged nerves cell in a deaf person’s ear. Rivolta, one of the supporters in this argument told that to press conference in London, "If this were a human patient, it would mean going from being so deaf that you wouldn 't be able to hear a lorry on the street to a point where you can maintain a conversation in this room," (3). It means that if a deaf person couldn’t hear, they will not hear everything what the sound describes or a person talking, so if this is implanted in a deaf person, he or she will be able to hear a word or sound that is described or demonstrated in their environment. The point is, if we actually have this injection on us, will we be able to use our beautiful sign language if we can hear everything? Our history will be destroyed if we use this injection, we will want to value in our history of deaf community
