What is therapy with Mesenchymal Stem Cells?

Mesenchymal stem cells, are cells that we have in our own body, which have been discovered in the decade of the 90's, and have been shown to improve the quality of life for patients.

It is a therapy of cell type or biological, in which we get a product of "cells" of the patient, as is the adipose tissue or bone marrow. After being obtained from these sources, the cells are processed in high-biosecurity facilities and then reinjected. This therapy allows to achieve achieve regenerative effects on the site or any injured organ in which they are injected these cells.

What diseases can be treated with Mesenchymal Stem Cells?

There are multiple indications of this therapy to regenerate different tissues and organs.

The most frequent indications are orthopedics and traumatology, in neurological problems and lung.

However, it is also used for the purposes of effects anti-aging and longevity in healthy patients.

How will the therapy with Mesenchymal Cells?

The benefits of the use of stem cell therapy are wide. Mainly allow you to create stimuli on cells that live in our own body to recover tissues that are injured, as for example the articular cartilage. That is to say, these cells stimulate resident cells of the cartilage, so that they themselves will multiply and be able to improve the environment in injured and regenerating the cartilage.

In turn, they have great anti-inflammatory effects, so that allow you to completely halt the vicious cycle of chronic inflammation, stimulating the regeneration.

And in turn, allow you to create immunomodulatory effects at a distance, generating favorable responses in diseases with problems in molecular, such as autoimmune diseases, neurological and lung.

What are the risks of therapy with Mesenchymal Stem Cells?

Cell therapies are safe always and when performing with a qualified health care personnel in the handling of Regenerative Medicine. Our research group has conducted scientific publications that demonstrate in a meta analysis that therapies with mesenchymal cells are safe.

How do I get the Mesenchymal Cells?

These cells are easily obtained from a simple procedure in a safe environment like an operating room or procedure room.

The sources can be the adipose tissue (using a mini liposuction) or bone marrow (using a micro-puncture of the iliac crest postero-superior).

How is the treatment?

The treatment consists of a simple injection. Depending on the site where you locate regenerate, these applications are usually at the local level, as it is in a joint, tendon or ligament.
