摘要 A newly designed stem cell model may provide a breakthrough for the treatment of patients suffering from Gaucher's disease. What is this disease and how are scientists going to use stem cells to potentially treat it Gaucher's disease is a lipid-storage metabolic problem involving macrophages. Macrophages are used by the circulatory system to recycle lipids found in the bloodstream. While macrophages A newly designed stem cell model may provide a breakthrough for the treatment of patients suffering from Gaucher's disease. What is this disease and how are scientists going to use stern cells to potentially treat it Gaucher's disease is a lipid-storage metabolic problem involving macrophages. Macrophages are used by the circulatory system to recycle lipids found in the bloodstream. While macrophages normally function to ingest and dispose of aged or damaged red blood cells, macrophages in malfunctioning systems are incapable of processing lipids present in the red blood cell membrane (of aged or damaged red blood,
