Adipose Tissue
Biohellenika the greatest company of stem cells storage in
Studies have shown that stem cells that we have in our body can lose some of their potential as we grow older. As the need for use in regenerative medicine is increased, it is necessary to preserve our cells as we are young and healthy. The doctors can aspirate adipose tissue either during a visit as an exterior patient, of during a scheduled liposuction.
Biohellenika will store the stem cells with safety and deliver them ready to use, after thaw, when the patient’s doctor will decide to use them.
New clinical trials use the stem cells of the adipose tissue for many therapeutic applications, including cardiovascular diseases, applications in plastic and esthetic surgery, skeletal regeneration and gastrointestinal tract malfunctions.
Analytically, the storage of stem cells from adipose tissue is now important, and they can be used immediately, without side effects:
1. Because now our cells are young, vital and free from any disease, probably they may not be as healthy when they are needed.
- Because our valuable cells must not be disposed after liposuction or any other surgical procedure
Adipose tissue derived stem cells already have been used in:
Breast reconstruction after partial mastectomy or lumpectomy. Also in combination with lipotransferring for breast augmentation
Tissue regeneration after irradiation necrosis
Calvarial repair after injury
Fistula healing: tracheal (tissue necrosis), perianal and Crohn’s disease
Acute GVHD after bone marrow transplantation
Facial and skin rejuvenation and other cosmetic corrections of the skin that are arose from aging and sun exposure
Experimental studies that are shown promising therapeutic use in the near future:
Multiple Sclerosis
Hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke
Spinal cord injury
Parkinson’s disease
Pulmonary disease
Urinary incontinence
Acute renal tubular disease after chemotherapy
Osteoarthritis
Liver disease
Diabetes I
Acute or chronic cardiac ischemia
Diabetic ulcers and peripheral arterial vascular disease
More promising therapeutic uses:
Intervertebral disc repair
Muscle, bone or tendons repair after injury
Vocal fold repair
Corneal repair
Periodontal disease
