Mesenchymal Stem Cells plays a vital role in
 Wound Repair

It has been scientifically proven that stem cells play a crucial role in tissue renewal and regeneration. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are those parts of the most important population of adult stem cells which helps in Repair and Regeneration of tissue. MSCs have been isolated from various sites like connective tissues, such as adipose tissue, muscle, placenta, umbilical cord matrix, blood, liver, and dental pulp. Bone marrow. MSCs also act as a therapeutic agent for regenerative medicine, immune disorders, cancer, and gene therapy.
Mesenchymal stems cells (MSCs) are frequently found in bone marrow and they play a vital role in repair of damaged organs. The transformation of a single MSC into complex tissue like bone and cartilage, then starts with its association with other MSCs in order to form microscopic clusters via a process called as condensation.


Wound healing requires a coordinated interaction between cells, growth factors, and extracellular proteins. In this process the endogenous mesenchymal stem cell (MSC), this coordinates the repair response by recruiting other host cells and secreting growth factors and matrix proteins. MSCs are self-renewing multipotent stem cells that can differentiate into various lineages of mesenchymal origin such as bone, fat, cartilage and tendon. In addition to multilineage differentiation capacity, MSCs regulate the immune response and then possess powerful tissue protective and reparative mechanisms by making these cells attractive for treatment of different diseases. 


The beneficial effect of the exogenous MSCs on wound healing was observed in a variety of animal models and in reported clinical cases. Specifically, they have been successfully used to treat chronic wounds and stimulate healing processes. Recent studies revealed that human placental membranes are the rich source of MSCs for tissue regeneration and repair. This review provides a brief summary of current knowledge of functional properties of MSCs and describes the use of MSCs for wound healing. Characterization of MSCs containing skin substitutes, demonstrating the presence of cytokines and key growth factors uniquely suited to aid in wound repair and Regeneration.

Fasting May Regenerate Stem Cells in Humans Intestinal stem cells begin to lose their ability to regenerate according to age. These stem cells are the source for all new intestinal cells, so this decline can make it more difficult to recover from gastrointestinal infections or other conditions that affect the intestine. According to a new study, this age-related loss of stem cell function can be reversed by a 24-hour fast. The researchers found that fasting dramatically improves stem cells’ ability to regenerate, in both Young and aged mice. In fasting mice, cells begin breaking down fatty acids instead of glucose; this change stimulates the stem cells to become more regenerative. Such an intervention could potentially help older people recovering from GI infections or the cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Intestinal stem cells are responsible for maintaining the lining of the intestine, which typically renews itself in every five days. When an injury or any infection...

CAN STEM CELLS HELP WITH AGING? What is aging? Aging is a natural process. Over time, the cells of the body become damaged and die gradually. Dead cells are replaced too slowly to reimburse for this loss. The signs of aging are begin to appear along with health issues like impaired hearing and vision, loss of muscle strength and bone mass, decreased immunity and cognition, and inefficient metabolism. Aging cells contribute to disease. If aging in the cells can be prevented, slowed down or reversed, many diseases could be controlled or cured. Stem cell research and advanced regenerative medicine therapies are being looked at for providing solutions to many of life’s problems. What are Stem Cells? Stem cells have the ability to change, evolve, duplicate, and adapt into other types of cells the essence of body regeneration. Stem cells have the potential to develop into many cell types in our body. They generally lie dormant in bone marrow and fat stores. MSCs are the bes...
