Scientists have reprogrammed human skin stem cells to
regenerate muscles in lab mice. This discovery is the first instance of human
stem cells proving to be effective in the treatment of muscular dystrophy. While
this discovery is promising, human trials are far from being in the works.
Scientists see this treatment eventually curing muscular dystrophy.
