Could Lost Retinal Cells Be Replaced? Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss, affecting the central vision people use for reading, driving, and recognizing faces. In dry AMD, specialized cells in the back of the eye gradually become damaged or lost, contributing to worsening vision over time. A first-in-human clinical trial…
A peer-reviewed review of research on mesenchymal stem cells in systemic lupus erythematosus, including potential uses, evidence, and limitations.
When people think about healthy skin, they often think about cleansers, moisturizers, serums, and sunscreen. While skincare products can be helpful, your skin is also influenced by what is happening inside your body. Skin is your body’s outer layer, but it can reflect much more than what you put on it.

Research on long-term outcomes is still developing, and results vary by patient. At Stemedix, we design personalized regenerative medicine plans based on each patient's diagnosis, since fibromyalgia symptoms…
When Knee Pain Starts Getting in the Way Knee osteoarthritis can make simple things feel a lot harder than they should.
