In the last several years we have seen an explosion of stem cell products on the market.  It is up to your physician to stay current on what the best products are and how they may be used for regenerative medicine application.  One product that we find enhances results in regenerative medicine and has a wide variety of uses is the placental mesenchymal stem cell exosome concentrate aka “exosome therapy”.

Exosomes are small spherical membrane structures that are released from mesenchymal stem cells to circulate in the extracellular space.  These spherical membranes are packages containing growth factor proteins and messenger RNA. By delivering these packages of informational and regulatory molecules, it is thought that the exosomes are the main vehicles by which stem cells communicate to each other and to the rest of the body.

The exosomes we use at Hawaii Island Stem Cell Therapy and Regenerative Medicine are extracted form a culture of donated placental mesenchymal stem cells using proprietary technology from the leading manufacturers in the field.  When these exosomes are introduced into the targeted tissue, the messenger RNA and protein growth factors go to work in the recipient’s cellular environment, turning on the recipient’s native stem cells and other growth and repair systems in the recipient’s body.

Exosomes can be used by themselves or can be used together with a concentration of the recipient’s own stem cells using the technique described above (link to /autolohgous stem cell therapy).   Please contact your physician at Hawaii Island Stem Cell Therapy and Regenerative Medicine and schedule and appointment to learn if exosome therapy may be right for you.
