Stem Cell Therapy Fetal/Embryonic Derived from the undifferentiated inner mass cells of a human embryo Illegal in the U. S. Extremely controversial Many moral issues Jeopardize human life Embryo taken before maturity Your Logo Here

Stem Cell Therapy Amniotic Fluid Extracted from the amniotic sac by amniocentesis Large proportion of cellular debris Potentially increase of HLA (allergic) response Inconsistent concentration Unverifiable stem cell count No CD 34 Your Logo Here

Stem Cell Therapy Placenta Extracted from the placenta by amniocenteses Large proportion of cellular debris Potentially increase of HLA (allergic) response Inconsistent concentration Unverifiable stem cell count No CD 34 Your Logo Here

Stem Cell Therapy Autologous Patient’s own blood forming stem cells are collected through surgery Requires surgical procedure (Potential complication, pain, recovery) Not potent enough for substantial difference Expensive Dependent upon age and health Your Logo Here

Stem Cell Therapy Umbilical Cord Blood Stem Cells derived from Human Umbilical Cord Blood Undifferentiated cells – No HLA Matching - No potential allergic reactions) Simple, fast, safe through intraarticular injections or IV fusion Customizable for individual Potent, robust, consistent Based on the accepted medical practices Your Logo Here

Advantages of UCBSC § Since UCBSC cells are immune system privileged, anyone can be treated § Best anti-inflammatory activity, immune modulating capacity, and optimum ability to stimulate regeneration. § Can be administered multiple times in uniform dosages that contain high cell counts. (Dose, frequency, and mode) ▪ Mode: Intra-articular (injected directly), I. V. infusion Your Logo Here
