Stanford researchers ‘stunned’ by stem cell experiment that helped stroke patient walk

I believe that they would have to be tagged stem cells. But I doubt this would work on downs syndrome, entirely different subject matter.

I realize, however, I was merely xpcurious, I'd realize the etiology is of course completely different, I'd just found the concept thought provoking, that's all, honest.

Capt Daniel Goodman - It is very thought provoking i appreciated it. and must admit will try to find out

I follow, many thanks, I'd also had similar interest is using TMS on a neuroimmunologic level to train and or reeducate the immune response mathematically to be able to cope adequately with autoimmune diseases, as well as in oncology for tumors and or various hematologic dyscrasias, as well as various anemia's and or leukemias, in addition to in infectious disease cases , to recognize various viruses, bacteria, and or fungi. My thought has been that mathematical pattern recognition techniques can be applied, I had delved some time back into mathematical immunology, especially the research of the santa Fe institute, along the lines of genetic algorithms, or GAs, adapting them for such purposes. I've long been of the view that drug design as a method for coping with drug resistant and or newer advent organisms, whether, e.g., MRSA, VRE, etc., or possibly zika, merely as cases in point, would always eventually fail , for the mere reason that evolution will always, eventually, supercede human ingenuity. There have been numerous papers I've seen over the past sevl yrs to the effect that DNA and or RNA, are in fact not codes, or sequences or letters, that the nucleotide bases are in fact complex and or hypercomplex valued numbers, whether simple complex numbers, or more advanced varieties referred to as octonions and or quaternions. Further, that the various genetic code tables, of which, when I'd last looked, NIH listed as there being some 31 different types depending on the various kingdoms and or phyla, genus, or species, involved, are, in fact, what are referred to as lie super symmetry groups, or other similar group theoretic structures. By viewing the genome, or, in fact, the microbiome, in such a light, and or from such a standpoint, I've been convinced now for quite some time that such an approach is not merely desirable, by absolutely necessary, to advanced biomed science. You might care to glance at http://quantumconsciousness.org that I'd mentioned on here elsewhere once or twice, about the microtubule basis for human consciousness, and the recent advent of the discovery of a six bit word computing architecture for human memory. The genome is also, I'd realized, based on exactly the same variant of six bit architecture, at minimum, since, in fact, a codon in any of the various so called genetic codes need no fewer than six bits to represent such nucleotide triplets. Thus, both genomic as well as mammalian memory architecture have, to my way of thinking, in all likelihood, exactly the same computing architectures, which is also, I am convinced, that immune response should quite possibly if not likely be accessible to such retraining on a neuroimmunologic level. I'd obviously be most eager to know your thoughts, pls understand those are merely idle musings on my part, of course, I am unfortunately now total perm disabled, and can no longer do anything more than merely speculate on such things as a result, obviously. However, one obviously doesn't shut off ones mind in such circumstances, so, as a result, I still try, nevertheless, to stay aware of such current scientific efforts, regardless, if only purely as an avocation at this point, I'm afraid, many thanks, in any event, hope the foregoing was of interest, would be most eager for your further thoughts.
