I'm getting the feeling that a contributor to aging is the degradation of the immune system. I also have the feeling that restoring immune stem cells might be valuable in older people.
Is there any credence to the hope that I could donate blood stem cells to my parents for transplantation, and thus invigorate their immune systems?
I should look for:
evidence that donated stem cells recover the immune system
evidence that the immune system degrades in the elderly
data on how stem cells are donated
data on how transplantability is deduced
I pick blood stem cells because they are mostly easy to recover from a donor, and they seem to be easy to transplant as well....
