Kākoʻo Kākoʻo Kākoʻo - Pono anei ka hoʻopukapuka kālā?

Hoʻolaha nui nā panakō koko kaula ma ke kīwī a ma nā nūpepa i heluhelu ʻia e nā wahine hāpai. Hiki i nā hoʻolaha ke waiho i nā makuahine me ka manaʻo hewa inā koho lākou ʻaʻole e hoʻopaʻa i ke koko kaula a i ʻole lākou e hoʻowalewale i ka hopena ma ka hana ʻole ʻana. He mea pono ke hoʻokomo?

He waiwai waiwai nui ia no nā ʻohana he nui, ʻoi aku hoʻi i ke ʻano hoʻokele waiwai o kēia manawa. Hoʻolimalima nā panakō koko ʻelua i nā uku like ʻole no kā lākou lawelawe. ʻO kekahi ka uku hōʻiliʻili e uhi ana i ka hōʻiliʻili ʻana, ke kākau inoa ʻana i ka papahana a me ka uku mālama ʻana o ka makahiki mua no ke koko kaula. Hiki i kēia uku ke ʻoi aku ma mua o hoʻokahi tausani kālā. ʻO ka uku ʻelua he uku mālama mālama makahiki, ʻo ia hoʻi ma kahi o $100.

Loaʻa i ke koko kaula nā pūnana mai kāu pēpē. ʻO nā pūnaewele kumu nā pūnaewele e lilo i mau pūnaewele ma nā wahi a me nā ʻāpana o ke kino. Ma mua o ka hoʻolaha ʻana o ka cell no kāna hana pololei i loko o ke kino, ʻo ia ka pūnaewele stem. Loaʻa i kēia mau pūnaewele ka mana kupaianaha o ka hoʻololi ʻana i kekahi ʻano cell i loko o ke kino kanaka.

Ua loaʻa i ka nūhou ka stem cell i nā makahiki i hala iho nei. Aia kekahi poʻe ʻepekema i hoʻolilo i ko lākou ola ma ke aʻo ʻana i ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā cell stem no ka mālama ʻana i nā maʻi like ʻole e like me ka leukemia, nā maʻi autoimmune, kekahi mau maʻi kanesa, nā maʻi immunological a me kekahi mau maʻi hoʻoilina.

ʻO ke kumumanaʻo ma hope o ka mālama kālā stem cell he mea kūpono ke koko no ka pēpē a he pāʻani kūpono no nā kaikunāne a me nā mākua. No laila ua ʻike ʻia ʻo ia he kulekele ʻinikua no ka ʻohana holoʻokoʻa. No ka mea ʻaʻole mākou i ʻike i ka mea e hiki mai ana i ka wā e hiki mai ana, ʻo ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ke koko kaula e like me ke kulekele ʻinikua maikaʻi no ke olakino o kou ʻohana.

No laila, kūpono ke kālā? Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻoholo inā he waiwai kēia āu e makemake ai e hana. ʻO ka liʻiliʻi loa o ka loaʻa ʻana o kāu pēpē i kekahi o nā maʻi pololei i mālama ʻia me ke koko kaula. Eia nō naʻe, hana ʻia nā holomua i nā manawa āpau a hiki ke loli maʻalahi kēia i ka wā e hiki mai ana. Wahi a ka New England Journal of Medicine, aia wale nō ma waena o 5,000 a me 6,000 mau hoʻololi koko kaula i hana ʻia a puni ka honua. Puna: http://scienceweek.com/2005/sb050114-4.htm

Ke kau inoa ʻoe me kahi lawelawe panakō koko, e hoʻouna lākou iā ʻoe i kahi pahu hōʻiliʻili. Lawe ʻoe i kēia pahu i ka haukapila ke hele ʻoe e hānau i kāu pēpē. Na ke kauka e hōʻiliʻili i ke koko kaula ma hope o ka hānau ʻana a haʻi aku i ka hui o ka ʻohi. Na ka waihona koko e hoʻouna aku i ka ʻelele i ka haukapila e kiʻi i ke koko a lawe i ke keʻena e mālama ai.

Inā hoʻoholo ʻoe e kūʻē i ka panakō i ke koko kaula o kāu pēpē, makemake paha ʻoe e nānā i ka hāʻawi ʻana iā ia. ʻO ka hāʻawi ʻana i ke koko kaula e like me nā hāʻawi koko. ʻOhi ʻia ke koko kaula a mālama ʻia. A laila hoʻohana ʻia ia no kēlā me kēia kanaka nona kahi pili genetic kokoke loa. Hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa i nā panakō koko kūloko e ʻae i nā hāʻawi o ke koko kaula ma ka ʻimi ʻana i ka pūnaewele a i ʻole e nīnau i kāu mea mālama ola. Loaʻa i kēia pūnaewele ka ʻike e pili ana i nā waihona koko ma nā wahi he nui. http://www.marrow.org/
