Stem cells are special kind of cells that have the ability to replicate and regenerate themselves. These cells can also disintegrate into many other kinds of specialised tissues and cells in the human body.

 

The most important role of stem cells is to provide your body with new cells and replace the dying, damaged and old ones every day.

When stem cells are diminished in your body, the number of dying and old cells continues to increase. Thus, there’s a lack of newly generated cells. This can lead to several effects of aging.

Stem Cell Therapy is a treatment to increase the number of stem cells in your body to treat many illness and enhance well-being.

​

The therapy makes sure the number of new cells generated in your body is able to compensate the old cells removed from the body. If you want the method to work, you need millions of stem cells. Our human body is unable to produce such a huge amount of stem cells on a daily basis.

​

Therefore, stem cells are produced and expanded in a sterile and clean laboratory before injecting them into your body. This makes sure your body receives the same numbers and quality every time.

(1) Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell
(IPSC)

• Functioned as Embryonic Stem Cell

• Obtain from blood cells in Autologous method (own cells)
   

(2) Umbilical Cord Stem Cell

• Functioned as Pluripotent Stem Cell 
   

(3) Adipose Derived Stem Cell (ADSC)

• Known as Multipotent Stem Cell (MSC) 

• Obtain from fat cells in Autologous method (own cells)

The stem cells are harvested from a vein similar to donating blood.

 

After being processed in the lab, the isolated and activated stem cells, Pluripotent Stem Cell (PSC) can be injected intravenously or into a site of injury.

​

 

As Cellular treatment uses only your own blood stem cells, there is minimal risk of allergic or foreign body reactions.

(1) Self Renewal

• They divide to make more stem cells while maintain in the undifferentiated state: perpetuating the stem cells pool throughout life.
   

(2) Homing Effect

• Activated by signals and get directed to the site that needs regeneration. Work with hormones that provide other growth factors.
   

(3) Powerful Potency 

• PSC are able to turn into cells from all three basic body layers, so they can potentially produce any cells tissues the body needs to repair itself.

An autologous transplant uses a person’s own stem cells. In this procedure, stem cells are collected from the patient. Following conditioning stem cell therapy, the patient’s stem cells are returned to the body to help it produce healthy red and white blood cells and platelets.

 

An allogeneic transplant uses stem cells from a donor whose human leukocyte antigens (HLA) are acceptable matches to the patient’s.
The stem cell donor may be related to the patient, or they may be an unrelated volunteer found through a donor registry search such as the National Marrow Donor Program.

Millions. Actually hundreds of millions. Only when you have the adequate number of stem cells can they start to replace the dead and dying cells of our body. When our body is no longer able to produce so many stem cells, we become dependent on stem cells that are injected into the body.

However, It is hardly to procure stem cells in the numbers that your body needs. So what one needs to do is expand the stem cells to produce more stem cells. Which means that the cells that are procured are multiplied and then multiplied further to give the adequate number. 

Animal cells are unable to function in the human body. In fact, when an animal cell is introduced into the human body, the body does not recognise the cell and treats it like a foreign body. The immune system hunts down and kills every last one.

In rare cases there are too many animal cells for the immune system to destroy. Then the animal cells overwhelm the immune system. This can cause severe and harmful reactions.

It is true that some people have reported positive results when injected with animal stem cells. However, this is not because of the stem cells but by associate growth factors present in the serum.

​The use of plant stem cells is to have them differentiate to cell types, thus restoring tissue or have the stem cells produce cytokines (proteins) that modulate the immune system.

 

However, plant & human bodies are very different. Plant stem cells are not going to differentiate to heart cells, bone cells, cartilage cells, etc. that are in the human body. The signals that tell the stem cells to differentiate are going to be very different in plants and humans. Plant cells in humans are not going to recognise the signals to differentiate. Instead, the plant cells will trigger the human immune system to come kill them.

The treatment is less painful than an injection. In fact it is as simple as can be. You walk into your clinic. You are given a saline drip. After about half an hour, you can leave.

If you are prone to allergies, you might be given a prophylactic injection before the drip as a precautionary measure.

The only challenging part lies in monitoring the treatment. Your doctor has to assess you regularly to ensure that stem cell treatment is right for you. It is also important to check whether the treatment is bringing about the desired response in your body.
