Stem Cells from Elderly Patients Can Form New Bone
Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones become weak, brittle, and are prone to fracture. While osteoporosis is commonly considered a disease of low bone density, it is more complex and extensive than that. New bone is constantly formed and destroyed (resorbed)...
The Link Between Bile Pigment & Brain Cell Protection
Bilirubin, a pigment found in bile, is best known for lending itself to the yellow hue seen in the skin of people with jaundice. Yet, recent research shows that this pigment could play a surprising role in protecting brain cells against the damage caused by oxidative...
Stem Cells Restore Erectile Function after Prostate Removal
For some men with prostate cancer, surgery to remove the prostate gland can be curative. The surgery to remove the entire prostate gland, called radical prostatectomy, can improve survival. If performed early, radical prostatectomy can prevent metastatic prostate...
Can Flavonoids Help Lung Function Decline?
A decline in lung function can be both age-related and result from a disease, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although there are medications available to help patients manage the symptoms of COPD, the disease has no cure. Thus, for both...
Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Show Potential in Patients with Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones become weak, brittle, and are prone to fracture. While osteoporosis is commonly considered a disease of low bone density, it is actually more complex and extensive than that. New bone is constantly formed and destroyed...
Autologous Stem Cell Treatment Research with a Youthful Approach
Autologous stem cell treatments offer several advantages over other forms of stem cell treatment. In autologous stem cell treatment, a patient's own stem cells are retrieved, processed, and injected back into the patient's body. There is no need for a stem cell donor,...
Could Estrogen Alleviate Parkinson’s Disease Symptoms?
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive nervous system condition which is diagnosed in more than 50,000 Americans each year. The disease affects movement and occurs when nerve cells in the brain don’t produce enough of the brain chemical dopamine. Patients with...
Treating Erectile Dysfunction with Stem Cells after Prostate Removal
Prostate cancer is quite common among men in the United States. The main treatment options for prostate cancer include: External beam radiation – Radiation is applied to the prostate gland through the skin (noninvasive) Brachytherapy – Radioactive pellets the size of...
Same Day Stem Cell Treatment for Pattern Baldness
Androgenetic alopecia is the medical term for pattern baldness. Pattern baldness can manifest in several ways such as a receding hairline, a bald spot in the crown of the head, and/or generalized thinning hair. Pattern baldness is the most common form of hair loss....
Is There a Link Between Gut Infections & Parkinson’s Disease?
For some time now, gut health has been suspected to play a key role in chronic conditions. We now know that there is significant interaction between the body’s immune system and bacteria in the intestinal tract, and researchers have become increasingly interested in...
The Potential for Exosomes to Help Patients with Arthritis
The field of Regenerative Medicine has shown great promise for helping those with a variety of chronic diseases, including arthritis. Indeed, data on the potential value of using stem cells to address issues relating to arthritis have been growing. While specific stem...
Stem Cells Improve Physical Health and Stamina in Elderly Patients
Frailty is a syndrome of weight-loss, exhaustion, weakness, slowness, and decreased physical activity. These features combine to make frail individuals more susceptible to physical, psychosocial, and cognitive impairments. Unfortunately, frailty is rather common among...
