In 10-20 years do you think stem cells will be able to regrow damaged nerves of the autonomic system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say: The fantastic thing about stem cells is that they have the ability to become just about any cell, fat, bone, muscle or nerve. Remember that it is not so much the type of cell but where it is located. Muscle cells are muscle cells but the biceps is different than those that make the forehead wrinkle. As science advances, I am betting the answer will be a "yes".
