Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are immune system privileged. No blood matching necessary.
Ethical issues are avoided because all umbilical cords are donated by mothers who gave birth to healthy, live babies.
The harvesting process is painless. No need to collect stem cells through invasive procedures such as liposuction or bone marrow collection.
The differentiation potential is broad. Stem cells can be integrated into any cell, for example heart, skin, nerve, muscle, etc...
Self-renewal happens with a rapid doubling time (approx. 40hours per cycle).
They have the BEST anti-inflammatory activity, immune modulating capacity and ability to stimulate regeneration.
They can also be administered multiple times in uniform dosages that contain high cell counts. Immunogenicity (allergic reaction) is low.
Tumor growth has NOT been detected.
Human Umbilical Cord Tissue (HUCT) contains an abundant supply of MSCs and they proliferate/differentiate more efficiently than other types of stem cells and are therefore considered to be more potent.
