Mesenchymal stem cells, Umbilical Cord Tissue, Umbilical …

Regenerative medicine may be the best hope for patients with a chronic disability or disease. Stem cells are being used to treat neurological, cardiovascular, autoimmune and orthopedic conditions as well as spinal cord injuries, severe wounds, erectile dysfunction and the list goes on.

Note: Despite all advances in stem cells research and the application of these therapies in many countries all over the world, stem cells therapies are not legally approved yet in San Diego, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, New York, Jacksonville, Seattle, Houston, San Francisco, Salt Lake City, Miami, Beverly Hills and other US cities. However, stem cell treatments are legal in Costa Rica.

By regenerating tissue and organs, andreducing inflammation, human umbilical cord tissue mesenchymal stem cells (HUCT-MSCs)have demonstrated they have the ability to improve conditions that currentlyhave no, or few, treatment options.

Mesenchymal stem cells repair damagedtissue and organs, repair function, modulate the immune system and reduceinflammation. The most powerful and abundant source of mesenchymal stem cellsis found in gelatin of Whartons jelly in the the tissue of umbilical cords.

In September of 2018, researchers publishedthe results of their evaluation of more than 30 studies evaluating the regenerativebenefits of Whartons jelly, stem cells derived from the umbilical cord bloodand tissue and other products derived from the umbilical cord. https://stemcellres.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13287-018-0992-0

Previously umbilical cord tissue wasconsidered medical waste and discarded, however, today experts in the field ofregenerative medicine, are preserving and using umbilical cord tissue to treatinjuries and chronic, degenerative conditions.

Whartons jelly is the gelatinous substancein the umbilical cord that protects and insulates the blood vessels. The jellyis made up of hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, collagen, fibrin, fibroblasts,macrophages and expresses stem cells including mesenchymal stem cells andtelomerase.

The review of available data, published in StemCell Research & Therapy, evaluated the benefits of products obtainedfrom Whartons jelly and discussed their potential clinical applications.

Whartons jelly can be used in several waysincluding: 1. The matrix surrounding the cells is made up of hyaluronic acid,collagen and fibrin that can be used to treat burns and wounds. The jelly isapplied to the damaged area to accelerate tissue restoration and 2. Adultmesenchymal stem cells can be isolated, cultured and expanded to treat diseasessuch as Alzheimers, Parkinsons, MS, Autism, spinal cord injury, rheumatoidarthritis, diabetes, traumatic brain injury.

The results of the data analysis showed theproperties of mesenchymal stem cells derived from Whartons jelly exceed thoseof stem cells derived from bone marrow and adipose tissue. HUCT-MSCs have beenshown to reduce inflammation, modulate the immune system, and repair damagedtissue.

HUCT-MSCs proliferate and differentiatemore efficiently and effectively than cells found in bone marrow and adiposetissue, and umbilical cord tissue is a more abundant source of mesenchymal stemcells than the blood of the umbilical cord.

Mesenchymal stem cells from the umbilical cord haveimmunosuppressors and immunomodulatory properties that allow their use in anyindividual without rejection. The cells do not express HLA-DR the antigenresponsible for rejection.

Researchers are conducting clinical trialsto evaluate the efficacy of stem cells derived from umbilical cord blood, andumbilical cord tissue. Some of the research includes:

Stem cells from umbilical cord tissue:

Stem cells from umbilical cord blood:

At the StemCells Transplant Institute in Costa Rica we recommend umbilical cord stemcells for the treatment of Alzheimers disease, Parkinsons disease, lupus,rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, myocardial infarction, stroke,diabetes (type I and type II), spinal cord injury, neuropathy, COPD, and ALS.

Atthe Stem Cells Transplant Institute, we tailor each stem cell treatment,based on the patients individual needs and goals.

Humanumbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells and autologous mesenchymal stem cellshave been proven in clinical trials to be safe and effective.

Themission of the Stem Cells Transplant Institute in Costa Rica, is toprovide the highest level of care, using the most advanced technologies, toevery patient that wants to experience the life changing benefits of stem celltherapy.
