The use of Human Exosomes in the practice of medicine
What is Neuro-Regenesis? The word "neuro" relates to nerves, and "genesis" refers to the formation of something. When we use the term Neuro-Regenesis we are implying re-forming or re-growth of neurons. This process is most active while a baby is developing in the womb and is responsible for the production of the brain's neurons. As we age our ability to regenerate cells or neurons diminishes. Hundreds of millions of people worldwide are affected by neurological conditions such as Parkinson 's disease, Stroke Recovery, Muscular Dystrophy, Multiple Sclerosis, dystonia, epilepsy, traumatic brain damage, as well as other conditions not mentioned here. Stem/progenitor cells and their bio-products, exosomes/extracellular vesicles (EV), offer a new promising treatment for damaged brains and rejuvenation for aging brains.
Stem cell-based therapies, including the mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), have been used in clinics for more than 2 decades to treat neurological disorders. These cells are unspecialized cells that can differentiate and regenerate into various specialized cell types. The initial concept for using stem cells in treating the aging brain and neurological injury and diseases was aimed at re-growing parts of the brain, but evidence now shows that stem cells secrete extracellular vesicles (EV) exosomes that induce neuroprotection that can restore the brain's capacity to reshape and neurologically recover and promote neuro-regeneration.
