The most important cell in our life.
The most important cell in our life.
When we are not yet born, something magical happens in nature, it is the union between the sperm and the ovules that gives rise to our life, thus the zygote is formed, which is undoubtedly the most important cell in our life, this type of cell is totipotent , basically this means that they can be transformed into any cell without problems, otherwise we would not develop, but why is this important, because the best types of cells to heal are the most ethically problematic, because they come from embryos with which we can use them.
The most direct way to access the regenerative power of stem cells is through stem cell treatments in places such as the placenta. In addition, with the discovery of genetic factors such as yamanaka factors that regulate cell aging, it is possible to extract a cell adult and rejuvenate the work point to form the new mind in a stem cell and many of these treatments are proving so effective that in fact studies are underway for the treatment of cancer with a type of lymphocytes called natural killers that are extracted from the placenta .
When a stem cell encounters damaged tissue, it releases proteins that reduce inflammation in the area and destroy microorganisms that shouldn't be there, and can even form new connective tissue and blood vessels so that the tissue heals faster, while If the damage is very serious, these stem cells will directly replace the damaged cells, they will transform into the cells that broke from the tissue.
If that doesn't seem like much to you, they can additionally release RNA and change the functioning of the tissues that are nearby, and today there are therapies that combine these exosomes from other cultured stem cells with your own stem cells, to have the best possible result and the lowest possible risk. most interesting of all the research with stem cells that is happening today, it does not take years for that moment to arrive, much of the field of longevity is moving at impressive speeds and as technology allows scalability treatments with stem cells are going to be more and more cheaper and more and more common and they are going to start little by little to replace more invasive procedures with some joint surgeries.
