In this University of Kentucky program, Douglas Kerr, professor of neurology, molecular microbiology and immunology at Johns Hopkins University and director of the Johns Hopkins Transverse Myelitis Center, discusses the role of stem cells in restoring function to the paralyzed. Kerr narrows in on the basic molecular and cellular mechanisms of paralysis, focusing on inflammatory mechanisms that result in motor neuron injury and death. Learn about the specific mechanisms of paralysis in the motor neuron disorders spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) as well as the autoimmune paralyzing disorder transverse myelitis (TM).

  • where did you get stem cell treatment?

  • you should tell us lopez, how is it going?

  • Just had adult stem cell therapy, how long should I wait before something is seen? I had my own bone marrow and umilical cord done as well. I had them put in through an IV. How long before I see some results. I have spinal damage.
