Stem cells are unique cells capable of transforming into various cell types and supporting the regeneration of damaged tissues. All organs and tissues in our body develop on their basis.
Stem cells are characterized by the ability to divide repeatedly, producing new cells of the same type, which allows them to maintain the necessary quantity in tissues and organs throughout the body's entire life.
The ability to influence the immune system, helping to regulate its activity. This can be useful for reducing inflammation and maintaining immune balance, which promotes better healing and tissue regeneration.
Stem cells have the ability to change their function and morphology according to the body's needs. That is, they can adapt to different conditions and promote the regeneration of damaged tissues in various situations.
Stem cells can transform into a variety of cell types (cartilage, bone, fat, etc.), which allows them to participate in the regeneration and repair of different tissues.
Isolated from embryos at the early stages of development. Their ability to transform into any cell type is extremely high. They are pluripotent, meaning they can become cells of any type.
Present in various tissues of the mature body, helping to maintain and regenerate these tissues. They are multipotent, which means they can transform into only certain cell types. For example, mesenchymal stem cells, capable of transforming into bone, cartilage, and fat cells, or hematopoietic stem cells, which form blood cells.
Created by reprogramming somatic cells from an adult human body under laboratory conditions, which allows them to acquire the properties of pluripotent cells, similar to embryonic stem cells.
They have the ability to transform into cells of any type, including those involved in the formation of tissues and organs. They are present at the earliest stages of development, in particular in the zygote.
They have the ability to become almost any cell in the body, except for some specific ones. Although their potential is somewhat lower than that of totipotent cells, they can still differentiate into most of the cell types that make up tissues and organs.
They can transform into several cell types, usually from a single germ line. For example, mesenchymal stem cells are capable of transforming into bone, cartilage, fat, and other cell types.
They can differentiate into several cell types but are more limited compared to multipotent cells. For example, myeloid stem cells are able to transform into certain types of blood cells, such as erythrocytes and leukocytes.
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a powerful tool in regenerative medicine thanks to their unique properties.
Here are the main mechanisms of their therapeutic action:
MSCs have the ability to transform into various cell types, including bone, cartilage, fat, and muscle cells. This allows them to replace damaged or lost cells, promoting tissue regeneration. For example, in the case of a bone injury, MSCs can transform into osteoblasts, which promote the formation of new bone tissue.
MSCs release various molecules, such as growth factors, cytokines, and exosomes, which play an important role in tissue regeneration. These molecules can stimulate the body's own cells to regenerate, reduce inflammation, and improve the microenvironment, promoting wound healing and improving the overall cellular condition.
MSCs can modulate the immune response by reducing inflammation and suppressing an excessive immune reaction, which is especially useful in conditions of chronic inflammation or after transplantation, when it is necessary to prevent rejection of transplanted organs or tissues.
MSCs promote the formation of new blood vessels, which improves the blood supply and nourishment of damaged tissues. This process, known as angiogenesis, is critical for wound healing and organ recovery after damage.
Thanks to their ability to differentiate and release bioactive molecules, MSCs can effectively promote the regeneration of various tissue types. They can replace damaged cells and stimulate the body's own regeneration mechanisms, allowing the functionality of damaged organs and systems to be restored.
Cell therapy targets the mechanisms of disease development. It is often used when other treatment methods are not effective.
Cell therapy helps relieve the symptoms of diseases and also provides a more long-term solution than traditional treatment methods.
A treatment method in which the likelihood of side reactions is minimized. Patients may experience a slight short-term increase in body temperature, redness at the injection site, etc.
Cell therapy allows treatment to be tailored to the individual characteristics of each patient's body, so the cell type, dosage, and method of administration are selected personally by the doctor to achieve the best results.
In a typical surgical or medical procedure, much of the time is taken up not by the treatment itself but by the recovery period. When using stem cells, the recovery time is minimal. The goal is to help patients return to their usual lifestyle faster.
Since stem cell therapy is non-invasive, it eliminates the risks associated with open surgery, such as infections and scarring, and there is no need for general anesthesia.
Stem cell treatment is a cutting-edge innovation in the medical world that helps restore and rejuvenate damaged tissues, nerves, cartilage, and muscles — a method that has demonstrated effective results and safety.
There are embryonic, adult (somatic), perinatal (from umbilical cord blood and the umbilical cord), and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC). Each type has its own properties and areas of application.
Not all stem cells are the same when it comes to therapeutic use. Adult stem cells are better suited for treating specific diseases because they are more specialized than embryonic stem cells, which are less mature and have the potential to develop into various tissue types.
Stem cells are able to self-renew and differentiate into the specialized cells of the required tissues. They also release biologically active molecules that stimulate regeneration and reduce inflammation.
Modern cell therapy uses primarily adult and perinatal stem cells, which does not raise ethical controversy. All procedures at ReoCell are carried out in accordance with international standards.
Stem cell therapy is used for orthopedic, neurological, endocrine, autoimmune, dermatological, and other diseases that are difficult to treat with conventional methods.
Depending on the indications, cells are administered intravenously, locally into the affected area (intra-articularly, intrathecally, etc.), or subcutaneously. The method of administration is selected individually by the doctor.
The method is relatively safe. A short-term increase in temperature and redness at the injection site are possible. All risks are discussed with the doctor before the procedure.
The recovery period is minimal — most patients return to their usual lifestyle the same day. The full therapeutic effect develops over 3–6 months.
