Evidence does not support it. Unproven therapy carries unknown risk and offers, at best, unvalidated slowing of decline. Approved medications are proven, and amyloid antibodies show modest benefit in early disease. A single infusion would need to match months of approved therapy to justify cost. Prioritise approved medications and consider stem cells only within registered trials under independent oversight.
Alzheimer's disease features amyloid-beta plaques and tau tangles, driving neuronal loss and cognitive decline. Stem-cell approaches address several pathways: placental mesenchymal stem cells are studied for neuroprotection — secreting anti-inflammatory and growth factors that may slow neuronal death — while exosomes derived from stem cells are explored as carriers for therapeutic molecules across the blood-brain barrier and as modulators of amyloid and tau biology. The rationale builds on evidence that stem-cell products reduce neuroinflammation and may support hippocampal neuroplasticity. Reversing established pathology and achieving adequate brain delivery remain unsolved; early trials are small and heterogeneous, with uncertain durability.
