What are stem cells?

• Stem cells are undifferentiated and unique cells
  with the potential to develop into various
  specialized cell types in the body. They are
  capable of self-renewal and differentiation.
• Their ability to repair damaged tissues make them
  especially important as a type of alternative
  treatment for a wide range of medical conditions,
  from neurological disorders to heart disease.

Types of Stem Cells

• Embryonic Stem Cells (ESCs) - Cells derived from
  the inner cell mass of an embryo in its early
  stages of development
• Adult Stem Cells (ASCs) - Undifferentiated cells
  procured from fully developed tissues like the
  brain and bone marrow
• Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs) -
  Genetically reprogrammed stem cells that exhibit
  ESCs characteristics
• Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) - ASCs with
  anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory,
  self-renewal, cell-division, signaling, and
  differentiation properties

Use of Stem Cells

• Disease Modeling
• Stem cells are used to generate disease-specific
  cell lines which can help determine the
  progression of a disease, its triggers, and
  therapies. This can be useful in research of
  degenerative, neurological, and genetic
  disorders.
• Personalized Medication
• Stem cells are used in patient-specific therapies
  by taking into account family history and disease
  progression.
• Gene Therapy and Genetic Editing
• Inherited diseases are managed through
  genetically modified stem cells.
• Regenerative Medicine
• Stem cells can treat a wide range of medical
  conditions and injuries by repairing or replacing
  damaged tissues and organs.
• From heart disease and neurological disorders to
  musculoskeletal injuries, the applications of
  stem cells can change the course of medical
  treatments.

Types of stem cell therapy

• Autologous therapy
• Cells are procured from patients own bone
  marrow, blood, or fat tissue
• Allogeneic therapy
• Cells are procured from external donors

6
Administering stem cells

• Stem cells can be administered in the following
  ways
• Intravenous
• Intrathecal (directly into the spinal canal)
• Inject into problem areas like hips, spine,
  knees, etc.

Stem Cell Therapy at Plexus

• We use mesenchymal stem cells that are typically
  sourced from different types of tissue such as
• Umbilical cord - collected at the time of birth
• Bone marrow - through a process called bone
  marrow aspiration
• Adipose tissue - through liposuction
• Peripheral blood - through apheresis (like blood
  donation)
