Podcasts about adult stem cells

Stem cells are unique cells that have the ability to divide and differentiate into various specialized cell types in the body. There are two main types of stem cells, Embryonic Stem Cells and Adult Stem Cells. Embryonic Stem Cells are derived from the early stages of an embryo and have the potential to develop into any cell type in the body. Adult Stem Cells are found in mature tissues and organs and can differentiate into specific cell types within that tissue or organ. Stem cells can replace damaged or diseased cells, accelerate wound healing and restoring organ function ,target and destroy cancer cells while preserving healthy tissue and much more! We will discuss everything about stem cells that you need to know and have to know before seeing a doctor.

Dr. Gus Vickery, a prominent figure in the field of regenerative medicine, recently graced The Jason Wright Show's “Authentic Health Friday” to delve into the remarkable potential of adult stem cells in fostering regenerative health. In their engaging discussion, Dr. Vickery shed light on the fascinating applications of adult stem cells, emphasizing their pivotal role […]

Dr. Andrew Pope is a native of Kansas and attended the University of Kansas for his undergraduate training, where he graduated with honors with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Bachelor of Arts in Biology. Dr. Pope was then able to fulfill his passion for medicine by obtaining his Medical Doctorate from the University of Kansas School of Medicine.Raised in a small town, Dr. Pope stayed true to his roots and pursued a Residency in Primary Care at Via Christi Family Medicine through the University of Kansas.  He was trained to provide comprehensive care, which included Obstetrics with Caesarean Section, Colonoscopy, EGD, Inpatient care, and Outpatient care.Upon completion of his Residency, he joined nine other physicians in a busy private practice in Manhattan, Kansas, where he provided a wide spectrum of care to all ages. Since then, Dr. Pope has opened his own direct primary concierge practice, BlueFire Med. In addition to Direct Primary Care, Dr. Pope also has a passion for using regenerative cell therapy to help patients. In 2014, Dr Pope and Kansas Regenerative Medicine began treating patients using the patient's own Adult Stem Cells.  They also use PRP, which is Platelet Rich Plasma, which uses a patients cells to reduce inflammation and improve healing.  In his free time, Dr. Pope enjoys providing care at the local free health clinic, as well as various outdoor hobbies including golf, basketball, and the upkeep on his ranch. He also dedicates a majority of his time outside of work to his wife and young children.In this episode we discuss:* My stem cell theapy story* Regenerative Medicine* Direct Primary Concierge Practices (subscription-based health care model)* Changing the way health care is delivered

How can regenerative medicine, like stem cell and exosome treatment, relieve arthritis? Could stem cells help repair a vision-impaired eye or a nerve-damaged spine?   On VitalSigns, Dr. Damon Noto explains to host Brendon Fallon how regenerative medicine can be used to counter osteoarthritis. But the possibilities go well beyond that.   “Within 48 hours, if we'd had the ability to put stem cells into that area of trauma, he may not have been paralyzed,” Dr. Noto says of 1970s–80s Superman star, Christopher Reeve, whose horse-riding accident left him paralyzed.   Dr. Noto is a physical and regenerative medicine specialist who has helped patients recover health and function in joints and other areas through stem cell, exosome, PRP, and related treatments.   “When you have trauma, those stem cells go into that area. And then [they're] like the foreman telling people what to do: ‘Hey, lay down fibrin here, lay down cartilage here; we need to grow blood vessels!'”   What prospects does regenerative medicine offer for reversing aging and disability in the future? Why hasn't the technology of stem cells advanced as fast as expected?   ⭕️ Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

Abstract: Despite a considerable interest in understanding the mechanisms regulating nucleus structure, chromatin organization and nuclear positioning over decades, the exact significance of the variety of morphologies and positioning that cell nuclei can adopt and their relationship in cellular function is still far from being clearly understood. In this study, we examined the functional significance of the variety of morphologies and positioning that cell nuclei of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells can adopt during neural-like differentiation. Here, we show that after neural induction, human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells an intermediate cellular state in which the nuclei are observed to be able to move within the cells, switching shapes and positioning and even generating cellular protrusions as they attempt to contact the cells around them. These findings suggest that changes in nuclear positioning are due to the fact that human cell nuclei are somehow sensing their surroundings. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Embryonic stem cells are controversial and have not proven to be effective in research. Dr. David Prentice, expert in stem cell research explains the break-through treatments with adult stem cells. Fascinating! See:

This event featured Dr. Sally Temple and Dr. Jeffrey Stern who are both co-discoverers of stem cells in the human retinal pigment epithelium at the Neural Stem Cell Institute, who addressed the role of stem cells in central nervous system development, maintenance, and repair. There was also discussion about cell transplants to replace retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and clinical trials for stem cell therapy and AMD.

Did you know that your adult stem cells are a specialized population of cells that have the unique ability to self-renew and differentiate into multiple tissue types. Because of this, they can replenish dying cells and regenerate damaged tissue. You can think of them as the tools your body uses to repair damage acquired over time. As we age, the number and function of our stem cells decline. But what if you could stop time on this invaluable resource and preserve the biological potential of these cells for the future. I recently discovered a company called Forever Labs which uses technology to bank your stem cells to help you live healthier and longer. Steven Clausnitzer, CEO and Co-founder of Forever Labs, joins me in a conversation about how the company is evaluating autologous interventions to extend the healthy human lifespan. Forever Labs has received several patents, including one for a service providing accelerated healing and reversing hair loss. In addition, Steven has managed to personally raise over $8 million in funding for Forever Labs, building his brand in a way that continues to make a difference in the future. An avid supporter of young entrepreneurs, I also learn how Steven spends his free time mentoring these individuals.

Hello. Hello, please help me welcome Dr. Ross Carter, as he's been in private practice since 1996 in Atlanta, Georgia, and now resides in west Palm beach, Florida. He's a specialist in helping minimize suffering from joint and spine pain, regenerative and chronic disease due to hidden weaknesses in our bodies. He does this by using regenerative nanoparticles to find and heal those weaknesses before they become problematic. He works as a health consultant at the world famous Hippocrates Health Institute, which is the largest natural food health Institute in the country. He has one of the largest regenerative medicine podcasts in the world, The Regenerative Warrior Podcast and Show, which can be found on YouTube and Apple podcasts. He is a number one best-selling author of: Doc Stem Cell: how stem cell therapy can eliminate knee, hip, and shoulder pain and the Million Dollar Business Card- create your authority, attract ideal clients and 10 X your income, no matter what your business is. He's also a national and international speaker. He has received his fellowship in stem cell therapy from the American Academy of Anti-aging Medicine in 2017. And he is also a doctor of indigenous medicine, which is a holistic approach, which considers your body as sum of physical, emotional, spiritual, and intellectual wellbeing, as well as your place in the community. His expertise involves teaching on restorative sleep and sleep coaching as well as many other kinds of regenerative medicine procedures. Welcome Dr. Carter. It's such a pleasure to have you here today. My pleasure to be here. Thank you for having me. Can you explain to our listeners what exactly, what are stem cells and why do we hear about them so much? Well, to give you basically a definition of stem cells, it is an undifferentiated cell that can become any other type of cell that it wants to become, whether it be a muscle, a ligament, a bone cartilage, blood cell. So it's, it's really a blank cell that that can become something else. And we have them in our body and they're there to help our body repair itself. Our body is constantly getting damaged and when we have cells that die every day, we have about a hundred billion cells that die every single day. And if you pick up your phone, basically that's about the weight of the amount of cells that need to be replaced every single day. So the stem cells are really in charge of that feature of our body to stimulate the repair and replacement of all the damaged cells. So that's the essence of what a stem cell is. That is so interesting.  You're saying it can be molded to a specific use. Right, that's that's its purpose. It can become more of itself or it can delineate into one specific cell line. So for example, we're completely made out of cells and we have skin cells. We have eye cells, we have, T cells. We have cells that are for our blood, We have lung cells, we have liver cells. So we have a variety of different types of cells and those types of cells need to be replaced with the same type of cell. So, these blank cells get us some type of information or signal, and then they become the type of cell that is needed,  to replace , the damage. That is so fascinating. So where do you get stem cells from and what's the difference between human embryonic stem cells and then adult stem cell? Where do we get stem cells from? Well, we have them naturally in our body that if they weren't working and we didn't have any, we would die. So we naturally have a storage of a lot of stem cells in our body. As we get older, the amount of stem cells that we have definitely goes down a lot and it does, affect our ability to heal ourselves. So, there are tons of different cells. Now, when you're talking about treatment, there's really two areas. You can either get them from your own body or you can get, um, donated from somebody. So for example, we have a lot of different stem cells in our, in our bone marrow. So that's a commonplace for where we can get some stem cells. Also, we have it in our fat as well, or adipose tissue, and we can get those regenerative cells from those locations. But there are other locations, the primary areas that we typically get them from our own self. Now, sometimes as we get older, the ability of ourselves to repair and stimulate repair, um, definitely decreased tremendously. And because of that, that's when re other sales from other people may be of better benefit. And the most common place that we get them is from placental tissue back about 20 years ago, there was, there was some controversy, regarding in the use of embryonic stem cells and an embryonic stem cell is after the egg is fertilized. The cell starts to grow into a mass and they usually get those cells at a very early stage, you know, and that's obviously going to prevent the, the cells from becoming a being . And they use these for different experimentations. It's sometimes is used now, but very, a lot less common. Um, so that was very controversial because it obviously killed the potential baby. Now there's something called adult stem cell. And an adult stem cells is a little misleading because it's, when, when you're born, they're now considered adult stem cells, even though you're not in an adult, but it's post pregnancy, I guess. These adult cells, typically only become one different specific type of tissue and not like an organ system or another body. Like they can with embryonic, they can create a whole new body, like a clone for you. So, the adults stem cells are the ones that we get from our body. Now, the placental ones, um, typically come from a placental tissue. So when a woman is having a baby, the placenta is surrounding and protecting the baby. And when the baby comes out, the placenta does too. And that's usually either discarded or a lot more times it's saved w  than it was before. And those cells, that's little regenerative factory that, that comes out. We can utilize those again and recycle those so that we can get a lot of the benefits, from those cells and those are placental. That's funny that you used the word recycle because that's literally what I was thinking of. I think that's kind of cool. Something that was going to go in the trash can actually be recycled and help people , give him less pain and live a better life. That is amazing. And then it's like kind of being a donor without having to die. That's awesome. I love it. Why did doctors and scientists use stem cells? and tell us about the body's ability to accept or reject the stem cells. So why don't we use them? I've mean they stimulate repair and regeneration of the body is the prime. That's their primary reason.  So that's what they're utilized for, but we can in laboratories, they can do a lot of things that don't naturally happen in the body.  They can regenerate and create a whole new organ system and, and things like that, that's not what usually happens in the body so they can do a lot of things with science now that, you know, as, as time progresses, they, they just develop various new techniques and new methods of using these stills. And actually, what what's really cool is recently they've they figured out how to. The cells function in the body, which was different than, than what most people used to think. Now, what most of the majority of people in this industry used to think is that a stem cell itself would be the cell that repairs. The damage, but actually it's not exactly how it works. It actually stimulates the repair of damage and it doesn't actually do the repair itself. So it, we have what are called progenitor cells, which are really the tissue specific, stem cells in this case, but they're called progenitor cells and they make more of their own type of tissue. Meaning you'll have skin cells that make more skin cells, right. It doesn't want to make a heart cell. So those are very specialized types of cells and a stem cell basically orchestrates the repair. So if you damage your skin, the stem cells come to that area and then they tell all the spells, uh, what to do and how to repair. And they use little signaling to do that. Almost like a domino effect, it gets in there and makes a reaction like causes the other cells to do a repair job. Correct. It does. It stimulates the other cells. It sends information. It sends like a recipe of what needs to happen. this cell is going to communicate to this cell these little tiny chemical messages. And they're in, they're in a protective little bubble and it travels from this cell to this cell and it just floats over and that cell takes it in and then it has instructions or a recipe of what that cell wants the other cell to do. And so that's how cells work cells are primarily protein factories. They create proteins constantly, and that determines the function of the cell. So. You the cells say, okay, this is what we need you to do. And it sends the little instructions and that, that cell text and the instructions for each the instructions, it says, okay, now that this is what we're making and that's how the cells actually function. And they stimulate repair is through these instructions. So what's cool. Is that recently we found that we can just take the instructions and not even use the cell itself. Wow. And take just a concentration of a bunch of instructions or recipes and inject that into an area or the body. And just with instructions, it will stimulate that same type of response without a live cell. Because when we take cells from one part of the body and put them in another, they don't like that so much. Another thing, if you take someone else's cells and putting them in your body, Your body is going to kill those, they're going to be rejected. Maybe not initially, , but they will be found by the immune system and they're destroyed, but they have the ability to stimulate, send those little tiny bubbles I was telling you about so that it, they can stimulate the repair of the cells that are damaged. So fascinating. Holy cow! It's a, it's a new that's where we talk about nanoparticles. Nanoparticles are the things that are, that that really are molecules that stimulate the, are the recipes, it tells the cells what to do. That's incredible. And I love, I love the fact that you can do it without the cell, which seems to be the hinderance of it. It is, it's the most common problem because when you take cells and if you take a lot of them, you, your body's going to have a reaction and a rejection component, and that's, that's a problem. But what, you know, what's interesting is they're using stem cells and these signaling factors to decrease the host reaction when you take on other cells from other people. So they, they have a way of modulating the immune system, basically it's changing it so that it doesn't, it doesn't attack immediately. Like, if it was just a regular cell, it would be immediately, identified and attacked. I know people will drugs to try to help prolong that. And is it a time thing where the stem cells enter and that the message is trying to get out there and you don't want the body to reject it. Well, when someone has a transplant of an organ, that they have to take a lot of drugs for the rest of their life, so that the body doesn't reject that organ because it naturallywill. And what kind of risks are associated when you get stem cells? Well, it depends a lot of factors that go into that. What the type of cells you're using, where are they from? Are they from a laboratory or are they from a person? How have they been processed? There? There's a lot of factors that go into determining, you know, What's going to happen. Overall, the safety record for most of these, products and used as a therapy is really super high they're they're fairly, they, they don't usually cause a stimulation of problems that usually help enumerate them.  And people can donate correct, like the bone marrow ? Yeah, there are companies that do except, donations of different stem cells  and yeah, I don't do that. One other question,  I just want to get into the sleep a little bit because I love, I love that whole thing. People don't realize how valuable sleep is to their lives.  So what are your favorite tidbits one that you can share that most people probably haven't heard of in regards to protecting that quality sleep ? The primary problem that I see the majority of people have is they've messed up their circadian rhythm. The circadian rhythm is a natural rhythm of the body. And, um, because of technology like computers and televisions and light bulbs and these things that we utilize at night,  it affects our circadian rhythm. Our circadian rhythm is really controlled by the rising and the setting of the sun . And it's really the light that we're getting in our eyes. Ideally, what should happen is that when we wake up in the morning, we should get, you know, bright sunlight. It tells the brain that it's daytime not to create any melatonin. And then as the sun goes down, the, you should be in a dark place where the melatonin,  is being produced because the brain says, Hey, it's time to get ready to go to sleep. The challenge we have in regular society, and our society is that we have lights from phones, we have lights from our TV. We have just our light from our regular bulbs.  And what that does is it tells the brain that it's still daylight outside. Uh, even though it's not, and it tricks our circadian rhythm to believe that it's not time to go to bed and then it throws it off. You know, most of us as, as children, we're able to sleep pretty well. And we unlearn that ability, a lot of us over time because of things that happen as stresses that happen in our life. And then we screw up our ability to sleep well. And so working when, when you first start working on, uh, your sleep, the best area to start with is working on the light and dark that you receive throughout the day. So here are the easy ways to do, that when you wake up in the morning and you should wake up at the same time and go to bed at the same time. Easier for your body to stay on that rhythm. When you wake up in the morning, you need to go outside, get some air, gets them sunlight. It's the blue light, really the primary light that you're, that you're wanting to get that into your brain so that it can clear up some of the, some sleep that you may, you may be feeling a little sleepy going outside helps that, but when it comes to night, If you go to bed, let's say at 10 30, ideally what you want to do about two hours or so before you go to bed, you want to put it  sunglasses like a light blocking glasses, blue light blocking glasses are usually the best and make sure they're tend to not like these clear ones, because you'll see some, they say blocks blue light and, and it'll be these glasses. And then you get something blue and you can see it's blue. And you're like, well, that's not blocking can get very effective. True. The funny thing, the way to test your glasses. Put them on and look at blue light. Like if you're, if you have a microwave oven with time or something , if you look at that, if you put your glasses on, can you see it? If you can see it, it's not blocking all the blue light, right? If it does, if you don't see anything, which is what you're wanting. Nothing definitely is doing a good job. So that's a good way to test those. So put those on two hours before you go to bed every night. Every night before I go to bed, I have you, you create routines as well, routines and rituals to turn down your body, to relax your body so that it's not overly stimulated, don't watch scary movies or a lot of crazy dramatic TV before you go to bed. It just good for you. So decrease the stimulants that you're doing in your life. So you wind down, put our routine in, maybe should read or do yoga, or those are the things I do, or like a hobby, like, I like to play my guitar. That's my practice time. Every night I have it scheduled. And so I go through these routines every night and that way I can go to sleep really easily. And then I get plenty of sleep because my body is in a rhythm. As long as it keeps in this rhythm, then you're doing a lot better. It's when you stay up really late or go drink, a lot of alcohol drink, too much stimulants, do things that you shouldn't, eat a big meal. Uh, things like this, you should not do before you go to bed. Right. These things can really affect your circadian rhythm. And so the easiest way, like I said is to, to work with the light and that will help dramatically improve the ability of your body to go to sleep. Are you a fan , I believe it's red light, isn't it? A lot of people will use red light at night. I'm like put a red light bulb in table lamps and not use overhead lighting . So they're more red. Yes, absolutely. And they don't affect, your circadian rhythm. So there's true dark has a light bulb, I actually used that one in my room at night when we're going to bed. I'll turn that on so I don't have to wear the glasses. Right, right. Yeah. That's a, that's a good way to do it. Yeah. Another question about melatonin, I know, when your circadian rhythm is correct that your body releases out at the correct time in the evening. Um, when you take melatonin like an artificial supplement of melatonin, I've read that, that messes up your body's natural ability to then produce melatonin. But how do you feel about that? To some degree? That could be the case. It's really, I haven't read a lot of things. That say negative things about use of melatonin, but you want to keep your dosage kind of reasonable three milligrams or less. It is a great antioxidant in addition to helping you sleep. So I've seen many clients that use melatonin every night, for basically their entire life and they don't really have any challenges with that. So can it affect your ability to make your own probably, but just as long as you don't get crazy with it, I think it's okay. Well, I have definitely big time rituals and routines, but, I drink tea that has passion flower in it  and I take Ashwaganda. And I tell you what, it's like shutting off a light bulb within an hour. My lights are out. It works beautifully every night.   Well I'd say I take those supplements actually passionflower, uh, ashwagandha.  The other one  chamomile.  There's a lot of them, there's even, some that help with the rise of cortisol. If you, if you're a little bit stressed, there are something called milk, milk, peptides, or casein peptides,  which you could get the supplements for online. And those are good for reducing the, the cortisol response to increase cortisone, I'm saying that wrong to increase melatonin supplement that I like, that's natural that makes your own has to do with sour cherry powder. Sour cherrypowder is good to stimulate your own melatonin production. If you're low in melatonin, this'll help stimulate it. I've heard a lot of things about the sour cherry. I didn't associate it with the melatonin production. That's very interesting. So would you kindly tell our listeners where they can locate you so they can get more information? Sure. Sure. They can just simply go to my website. This is my name, Dr. Ross carter.com. There they can, they can find everything they need . If they have questions, they can set up a time to chat and, yeah, it's really simple. Such an exciting arena, the whole stem cell thing. I mean, what a cool job to have to try to help people stay out of pain and live better, longer, that must be very rewarding. I it's all such a blessing. Let me, let me throw something in.  If your listeners are really interested in learning about, uh, regenerative procedures, as well as stem cells and the signaling factors I mentioned, because medicine is going in the way of regenerative or RNA is really the major driver here and that's what our vaccine is made out of. It is an RNA in a protective coating. So you want to learn how more about that in a, in a simple way. I just published a book about it. It's called Bio Hack Aging, and it just became a best seller yesterday, actually on. Yeah, very happy. I did a launch yesterday and it became a bestseller quick. And, uh, so it's called Bio Hack Aging and right now I have a special on it, the ebook, I have it at 99 cents. It'll go back up to $10 for the ebook, probably tomorrowor the next day. But if you go now that you can, uh, you can get it for 99 cents. It's on Amazon, just type in BIOhack aging, and you'll find it. I spent two years researching for this. That's like the deal of the day people.  I will so be going to do that right after we get off the air here. I definitely will be purchasing that! You know, I love when, when you can find out the things that make you live better, it's not necessarily how long you live, but to me, it's how you live with the energy and the quality of life, that's so important. So I hope, my listeners do as well. Well, they want to learn how to stop the aging process, this is it, I'll give you a quick summary. There's three things that cause us to age. The three things are this, your daily metabolism, meaning your cells are functioning that causes damage to your body, stress, which is physical, emotional, and chemical, and our epigenetic changes or the, the changes of our genetics over time. Right? All three of those combined cause damage to our body. As, as we get older, the ability to repair that damage decreases, eventually it reaches a threshold and then we start developing conditions like, you know,  like back pain or arthritis or some type of conditions. And that is really when we're truly aging is when our, our repair system can't keep up with the amount of damage that we're sustaining. So I teach a way it's simple one procedure that can undo that, that can stimulate our body to repair like it used to when we were younger and not like, if you want, like, not like a 51 year old. Right. That's awesome. Okay. Last question on my question. Um, if there is one thing you could eliminate from this world, what would it be and why ? So one thing I would want to eliminate in this world, um, I mean, fear is what stops us from doing pretty much anything in our life. Uh, I would say that would be one of them that would be. Uh, but you know, fear does stop us from killing ourselves a lot of times from doing something stupid. So if you took away all fear, then everyone would be fearless and we would be dead. So that would probably not be the best one. So how about this? I'll go with something simple. If we could eliminate sleep problems, that would be the ultimate, I think because we have to do that every day. And if we could always just go to bed and wake up and feel refreshed every morning, I think that that would solve a lot of problems. It's all around the world. Nobody's ever said that and you know, it's so true because I feel like. Most of us are so sleep deprived. And I think that irritability out there, the loss of patience, the lack of kindness, the ability to focus, productivity, parenting. Yeah. Yeah. Your whole mental state and your positivity. It affects all of that. And what else do you spend doing a third of year? You know what I mean? Like that's, it's, it's a tremendous part of your life and nobody focuses on it at all. Um, and yeah.  I agree with you. That is one of the best answers I've ever gotten. So thank you for that. Okay. Vitality feed listeners. I hope everyone got some notes and I will put all the details in the show notes because this one had some, a little more technical information in there. Uh, but this was really fascinating and so informative. Thank you for sharing what you do and for your ability to help people and improve their lives. This was so awesome. I just want to remind our listeners that life has no remote. Get up and change it yourself.  

In her second talk, Fuchs focuses primarily on studies of adult skin stem cells.  Adult stem cells have the ability to make more stem cells and to generate the cells of a differentiated tissue. Skin stem cells can replenish the epidermis and make hair follicle cells. Skin grown in culture from just a few skin stem cells can be used to treat burn patients or replace damaged corneal epithelium.  Stem cells reside in specific niches or microenvironments and signals from the niche determine whether a stem cell is going to be quiescent or make tissue. Fuchs' lab has studied hair follicle stem cells for many years and has identified the signals that activate hair follicle stem cells as well as the specific set of transcription factors that are upregulated in the activated stem cells. They have shown that many of the genes turned on during stem cell activation are regulated by super enhancers which sense the niche environment.

In his first talk, Dr. Hans Clevers provides a historical perspective on the discovery of adult stem cells in the gut. They identified a Wnt-dependent, rapid proliferating population of cells at the bottom of the crypt which seemed to be important for generating all epithelial cells in crypts and villi, and they hypothesized that these were gut stem cells. By using the Lgr5 gene as a marker, the Clevers’ lab confirmed that these long-lived cells were indeed the gut stem cells by showing that they were able to generate all of the cell types of the gut epithelium throughout life. Clevers characterizes the gut stem cells and its progenitors, and explains how his lab developed a technique to grow from a single stem cell an organoid or mini-organ, a structure that recapitulates the normal structure of the gut.

From the early battles over embryonic origins up to today's use of the more effective adult stem cells. Many charlotenes tried to hoodwink people. Todays stem cell therapies are being embraced by legitimate forward leaning physicians and available in just about every community in the USA today. See what they may be able to do for you as you age. ::

Regenerative Medicine is no pseudoscience- it has been used by both senior citizens as well as the word's top athletes such as Troy Polamalu and Ben Roethlisberger. But what IS IT, exactly? I wanted to bring the most well-versed and experienced healthcare professional I know to break down the ins and out of what regenerative medicine is, how it can help you and your patients, and applications for its role in our ever-expanding society of healthcare! Mike Leone is a physician assistant practicing in physical medicine & rehabilitation and the cutting-edge field of regenerative orthopedics at Choice Restorative Medicine. He graduated from W&J College undergrad and got his Masters in Physician Assistant Studies at Chatham University in Pittsburgh. Mike is passionate about alternative ways to approach pain management and wants to educate the community on the healing power of regenerative medicine. Listen in as we dive into: - What is regenerative medicine? - What can be treated with regenerative medicine? - How can you get treated? - How does this tie into traditional pain management therapies? - Resources for further learning about regenerative medicine Resources Mentioned In This Podcast: -Research Book: https://neilriordanbooks.com/mesenchymal-stem-cells -Seminal Paper on the Physiological Function of Adult Stem Cells: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3144500 -Most Up-to-Date Review on PRP and Its Role Based on Current Evidence: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5632954 Like The Fit Pharmacist on Facebook: www.facebook.com/thedietdocpittsburgh Host: Dr. Adam Martin, PharmD, ACSM-cPT LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/thefitpharmd Instagram: www.instagram.com/thefitpharmacist Website: thefitpharmacist.com YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/channel/UCMLjmxSZ_RZYCfwt2QkD5zA Guest: Mike Leone, PA-C Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChiroChoice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/choicechiro8199 Twitter: https://twitter.com/chirochoice Website: https://choicemedpgh.com

Two of the nation's leading experts on the topic of adult stem cells are the guests on this segment of Business Unconventional.  They are Dr. Ben Guiot, a neurosurgeon affiliated with Littleton Adventist Hospital and South Denver Neurosurgery; and James Poser, PhD, chief scientific officer of Celling Biosciences, based in Austin, Texas. Adult stem cells were central to the treatment and recovery of Peyton Manning, the SuperBowl-winning NFL quarterback who was recently signed by the Denver Broncos.  Drs. Guiot and Poser discuss the advances that are allowing many patients to benefit from similar medical technologies. This is the final segment on this special edition of Business Unconventional, which dedicates all four segments to an examination of Colorado as a growing hub for medical and healthcare innovation.  Colorado is home to numerous physician-entrepreneurs and is the global base of the Society of Physician Entrepreneurs, a group dedicated to promoting advancements in healthcare. Business Unconventional is hosted by David Biondo and Dean Rotbart and airs each Sunday morning at 8 a.m. (MDT).  The program is also streamed over the Internet at www.710KNUS.com.   The program is also a sponsor of Medical Backbone, an initiative to honor and highlight the contributions of outstanding individuals and institutions to our nation's health infrastructure.  Dr. Guiot serves as chairman of the Medical BackBone Board of Advisors.

This is Ken Aldrich.  I am Chairman of International Stem Cell Corporation and thought I’d talk for just a minute, or maybe a couple of minutes, about the different kinds of stem cells.  People are always asking, “What’s the difference between an adult stem cell and an embryonic stem cell?”   Let me try to make this as simple as possible.  Adult stem cells are those that are derived from the human body any time after the first, probably, week or two of development of the fetus in the womb. So, cells that come from cord blood, or cells that come from embryonic tissue as well as cells that come from an adult human being are all categorized as adult cells and as a result they can become certain types of cells in the body and can be changed into certain other kinds, but not all kinds.  That limits the range of diseases that you can possibly treat with adult cells; leukemia, for example, in some cases very well, you can’t treat diabetes and so on.  The second broad category is what’s called pluripotent stem cells.  These are cells that can be converted into any cell in the body.  The best known example of pluripotent stem cells are embryonic stem cells which we have all heard about in the news.  These are created from a fertilized human egg and have all of the ethical issues that people debate about, but also have the ability to become any cell in the human body.  The next category, that you haven’t heard as much about are what are called Induced Pluripotent Cells of IPS cells.  These are derived from adult tissue, but then that tissue is reprogrammed back to its primal state and you get a true pluripotent stem cell as if it were an embryonic cell.  The problem with these is that in order to get back to that state, you have to introduce what are called vectors which often are cancer causing agents and you are also involving genetic manipulation, so there is a big question as to whether the FDA will ever approve those kinds of cells for therapy.  What they are wonderful for, however, is research.  Scientists, for example, can reprogram cells from a patient who has Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s and perhaps be able to study the development of that disease and find out exactly what goes wrong and when.  So they are very useful. The third category is parthenogenetic stem cells.  These happen to be the ones created by our company, International Stem Cell Corporation.  We think they are the best so I will acknowledge a little bit of bias right here.  These are cells that have all the characteristics of embryonic stem cells, but they are created without using a fertilized human egg.  That has two huge advantages; one, obviously, is we take the ethical issue off of the table, the second advantage is however the genetic makeup is much simpler.  There is no sperm from the father to add to the genetic complexity.  As a result of this, we can take a single cell line, match it to the immune response system of literally hundreds of millions of people.  That leads to what we hope will be the final solution for creating a true human cell bank that anyone can tap into and get cells that match their own needs, on demand, when they need them.  Think of it like a blood bank, if you will, except that these are human cells and they are more complicated.  That’s a quick overview.  If you are curious about more please go to our website at www.Internationalstemcell.com and if you browse around there a bit you’ll find quite a bit more to learn about stem cells and in particular about our parthenogenic stem cells.    Thanks for listening.

Guest: James Sherley, MD Host: Mark Nolan Hill, MD In this segment Dr. Sherley speaks about many stem cell related topics including the relationship between stem cells and cloning, gene therapy and how adult stem cells work.
