Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a special type of cells in our body that are considered the “raw material.” These cells are multipotent, meaning they have the ability to differentiate into different types of cells in our body. They can be obtained from various sources, such as the placenta or the umbilical cord, after the baby’s birth. Stem cells obtained from this tissue have special properties, for instance, they can regulate the immune system and also assist in tissue regeneration.

Therapies based on MSCs serve as a means to aid in repairing, restoring, maintaining, or enhancing organ functions through out life. MSCs exhibit therapeutic effects in several ways, including:

• Anti-inflammatory properties: MSCs have properties that help regulate the immune system and reduce inflammation. These effects are attributed to the molecules released by the cells.

• Differentiation capacity: MSCs have the ability to differentiate into various types of cells, such as muscle cells, bone cells, fat cells, cartilage cells, among others.

• Regeneration capacity: MSCs can stimulate tissue regeneration by
  interacting with cells from other tissues, such as epithelial and endothelial cells. This stimulation occurs through paracrine pathways (nearby cells) and endocrine pathways (cells throughout the body).

MSCs can be administered into the body through different routes, depending on the therapeutic purpose and specific objective. Some common routes include:

• Intravenous infusion: MSCs are administered through a vein to distribute them through out the body and reach different organs and tissues.
• Local administration: MSCs can be directly applied to the specific region that needs treatment, such as an injured tissue (muscular or subcutaneous) or an affected joint (intra-articular), concentrating the MSCs in the target area.

Our mesenchymal stem cells are obtained from umbilical cord and placenta, donated by healthy mothers after the birth of their babies. These donors undergo a rigorous selection process, including comprehensive testing, to ensure the suitability and safety of the donation.

The cost of the treatment depends on each patient as it is entirely personalized to meet individual needs.

While results may vary, improvements can be felt in the initial weeks. However, significant changes may be noticed within a span of 3 to 6 months.

All donors go through a rigorous process of clinical, microbiological, and mycological analysis. Once the tissue is obtained, the laboratory conducts further microbiological and mycological analyses for each batch of mesenchymal stem cells. This ensures that we can guarantee the cells are free from pathogens.
