Orange County, CA (PRWEB) October 21, 2013

The premier stem cell therapy clinic on the West Coast, Physician First Choice, is now offering IV stem cell treatment for numerous medical conditions. This includes stem cell treatment for Alzheimer's disease, Diabetes, Parkinson's, Liver Disease, Cardiac Disease, COPD and much more. The treatments are provided by US Board Certified Stem Cell Doctors and for more information call (888) 988-0515.

Stem cell therapy has become available for numerous medical conditions and can dramatically improve the patient's baseline. Increasing amounts of research are showing the benefits of IV stem cell therapy for conditions such as diabetes and COPD. Prior to stem cell therapy, these conditions could be managed with traditional medications, but the disease itself could not be altered. With stem cell therapy, that possibility exists.

The Board Certified stem cell doctors at Physician First Choice have over 20 combined years of experience working with patients for both stem cell injection treatment and IV therapy. The clinic treats patients at multiple Southern California locations along with an international location in Mexico. Patient treatment is performed by the same US Board Certified doctors before, during and after therapy to ensure continuity of care.

The program in Mexico involves four days worth of treatment at a first rate clinic, and patients stay at a beautiful hotel with transportation included. IV stem cell therapy is performed along with growth factor treatments to enhance the effect of the bone marrow stem cells.

For conditions such as multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, watching a loved one deteriorate can be disheartening even when the best care is received. Physician First Choice has been having excellent results with IV stem cell treatment for diabetes and these conditions, and the program has been growing exponentially as a result.

The 4 Day Stem Cell Therapy IV Program is offered as a package. Transportation to and from San Diego is included along with the Hotel Stay, All Medical Treatment, Breakfast Each Day, and Transportation between the Gorgeous Hotel and the Stem Cell Treatment Facility. Patients must be approved for program inclusion with a full medical record review and evaluation by the Southern California doctors.

To inquire about program inclusion for IV stem cell therapy, call Physician First Choice at (888) 988-0515.

Oct. 10, 2013 Human skin must cope with UV radiation from the sun and other harmful environmental factors that fluctuate in a circadian manner. A study published by Cell Press on October 10th in the journal Cell Stem Cell has revealed that human skin stem cells deal with these cyclical threats by carrying out different functions depending on the time of day. By activating genes involved in UV protection during the day, these cells protect themselves against radiation-induced DNA damage. The findings could pave the way for new strategies to prevent premature aging and cancer in humans.

"Our study shows that human skin stem cells posses an internal clock that allows them to very accurately know the time of day and helps them know when it is best to perform the correct function," says study author Salvador Aznar Benitah an ICREA Research Professor who developed this project at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG, Barcelona), and who has recently moved his lab to the Institute for Research in Biomedicine (IRB Barcelona). "This is important because it seems that tissues need an accurate internal clock to remain healthy."

A variety of cells in our body have internal clocks that help them perform certain functions depending on the time of day, and skin cells as well as some stem cells exhibit circadian behaviors. Benitah and his collaborators previously found that animals lacking normal circadian rhythms in skin stem cells age prematurely, suggesting that these cyclical patterns can protect against cellular damage. But until now, it has not been clear how circadian rhythms affect the functions of human skin stem cells.

To address this question, Benitah teamed up with his collaborators Luis Serrano and Ben Lehner of the Centre for Genomic Regulation. They found that distinct sets of genes in human skin stem cells show peak activity at different times of day. Genes involved in UV protection become most active during the daytime to guard these cells while they proliferate -- that is, when they duplicate their DNA and are more susceptible to radiation-induced damage.

"We know that the clock is gradually disrupted in aged mice and humans, and we know that preventing stem cells from accurately knowing the time of the day reduces their regenerative capacity," Benitah says. "Our current efforts lie in trying to identify the causes underlying the disruption of the clock of human skin stem cells and hopefully find means to prevent or delay it."

JOHNS HOPKINS MEDICINE NEWS TIPS FROM THE 2013 ANNUAL CLINICAL CONFERENCE OF THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF SURGEONS, OCT. 6-10, WASHINGTON, D.C.

GENE AND STEM CELL THERAPY COMBINATION COULD AID WOUND HEALING

--Findings in elderly mice offer insight into helping elderly people recover from burns

Newswise Johns Hopkins researchers, working with elderly mice, have determined that combining gene therapy with an extra boost of the same stem cells the body already uses to repair itself leads to faster healing of burns and greater blood flow to the site of the wound.

Their findings offer insight into why older people with burns fail to heal as well as younger patients, and how to potentially harness the power of the bodys own bone marrow stem cells to reverse this age-related discrepancy.

As we get older, it is harder for our wounds to heal, says John W. Harmon, M.D., a professor of surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, who will present his findings to the American College of Surgeons Surgical Biology Club on Sunday at 9 a.m. Our research suggests there may be a way to remedy that.

To heal burns or other wounds, stem cells from the bone marrow rush into action, homing to the wound where they can become blood vessels, skin and other reparative tissue. The migration and homing of the stem cells is organized by a protein called Hypoxia-Inducible Factor-1 (HIF-1). In older people, Harmon says, fewer of these stem cells are released from the bone marrow and there is a deficiency of HIF-1. The protein was first discovered about 15 years ago at Johns Hopkins by Gregg L. Semenza, M.D., Ph.D., one of Harmons collaborators.

Harmon and his colleagues first attempted to boost the healing process in mice with burn wounds by increasing levels of HIF-1 using gene therapy, a process that included injecting the rodents with a better working copy of the gene that codes for the protein. That had worked to improve healing of wounds in diabetic animals, but the burn wound is particularly difficult to heal, and that approach was insufficient. So they supplemented the gene therapy by removing bone marrow from a young mouse and growing out the needed stem cells in the lab. When they had enough, they injected those supercharged cells back into the mice.

After 17 days, there were significantly more mice with completely healed burns in the group treated with the combination therapy than in the other groups, Harmon says. The animals that got the combination therapy also showed better blood flow and more blood vessels supplying the wounds.

Freeport, The Bahamas (PRWEB) October 03, 2013

Okyanos Heart Institute, whose mission is to bring a new standard of care and better quality of life to patients with coronary artery disease using cardiac stem cell therapy, has announced that they will be hosting a free educational seminar for the business community and all other interested individuals on Tuesday, October 22nd from 5:30 6:30 pm in the Coral Reef Room of the Pelican Bay Hotel in Lucaya, Grand Bahama Island. Registration is requested to attend as seating is limited.

Howard Walpole, M.D., M.B.A., F.A.C.C., F.S.C.A.I. and chief medical officer and interventional cardiologist for Okyanos Heart Institute will provide an overview of stem cell therapy for heart disease, the source of stem cells, how it is intended to work, and the protocol that will be used by the cath lab for patients once the facility is open in February, 2014. Erika Mangrum, SVP of Communications for the company, will provide an overview of what services will be needed by small businesses on the island, such as janitorial, hospital grade laundry, transportation, catering and more. A preliminary list of jobs that Okyanos Heart Institute will need to fill towards the end of the year will also be shared.

We welcome the local business community to learn about what we will be doing in treating patients with heart disease, said Walpole. Stem cell therapy is a growing field still with some confusion around where stem cells come from, what they do, and how they can potentially help someone with heart disease. We want to answer as many questions as we can.

President of The Grand Bahama Port Authority, Limited (GBPA) Ian Rolle, is pleased with how plans are progressing as the Institute prepares to open its doors locally in early 2014. Legislation has recently been enacted to support stem cell therapy, research and development in The Bahamas. This is of monumental proportions as Grand Bahama Island is now poised to become a leading centre for medical advancement, Rolle said. We heartily welcome the Okyanos Heart Institute and support their efforts towards public education. Additionally, the employment of skilled professionals and outsourcing of ancillary services, mean permanent engagement and greater business opportunities for many of our citizenry.

Okyanos Heart Institute will have a number of service needs from the local business community, said Mangrum. We hope to meet potential suppliers and servicers and share what our needs will be from service providers, and share employment needs once we are close to opening in February. We could not be more enthused about bringing patients to the beautiful island of Grand Bahama in the hopes of improving the quality of their lives by restoring flow to their hearts.

Registration for the seminar is requested as seating is limited. Call 242-688-2667 or email freeseminar(at)okyanos(dot)com by Oct 18.

ABOUT OKYANOS HEART INSTITUTE: (Oh key AH nos) Based in Freeport, The Bahamas, Okyanos Heart Institutes mission is to bring a new standard of care and a better quality of life to patients with coronary artery disease using cardiac stem cell therapy. Okyanos adheres to U.S. surgical center standards and is led by Chief Medical Officer Howard T. Walpole Jr., M.D., M.B.A., F.A.C.C., F.S.C.A.I. Okyanos Treatment utilizes a unique blend of stem and regenerative cells derived from ones own adipose (fat) tissue. The cells, when placed into the heart via a minimally-invasive catheterization, stimulate the growth of new blood vessels, a process known as angiogenesis. The treatment facilitates blood flow in the heart and supports intake and use of oxygen (as demonstrated in rigorous clinical trials such as the PRECISE trial). The literary name Okyanos (Oceanos) symbolizes flow. For more information, go to http://www.okyanos.com.

Orange, CA (PRWEB) September 30, 2013

TeleHealth, the leading stem cell therapy clinic on the West Coast, is now offering multiple treatments with stem cells for knee arthritis. The stem cell treatments are very exciting as they present the possibility of repairing and regenerating arthritis damage in the knees. The treatments are offered by Board Certified stem cell doctors at the clinic in outpatient, low risk procedures that are often covered by insurance. Call (888) 828-4575 for more information and scheduling.

Over the past few years, increasing studies are showing the benefits of regenerative medicine treatments for knee arthritis. This includes a study out of the Hospital for Special Surgery last year showing effectiveness of platelet rich plasma therapy for knee arthritis. Treatment options at TeleHealth include both platelet rich plasma therapy (PRP therapy) along with bone marrow derived stem cell injection therapy or fat derived stem cell therapy.

Often, the treatments are combined to produce maximum knee arthritis benefit and allow patients to avoid surgery, reduce pain and dramatically increase functional ability. While knee replacement surgery has been shown to have a high success rate, the components are not meant to last forever and there can be complications with the surgery.

Therefore, it makes sense to try conservative treatment prior such as with the regenerative medicine options at TeleHealth. Especially considering the stem cell treatments are often covered by insurance.

TeleHealths main stem cell clinic is located in Orange, CA, convenient to major freeways and not far from San Diego, Los Angeles, Santa Ana and Inland Empire. The highly skilled stem cell doctors at the clinic are Board Certified and have years of experience treating musculoskeletal conditions with stem cell treatments including shoulder arthritis, rotator cuff tendonitis, Achilles tendonitis, tennis elbow, muscle tears and much more.

Call (888) 828-4575 for more information and scheduling.

MANILA, PhilippinesStem cell therapy should only apply to skin grafting for burn patients and not for anti-aging purposes, according to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Up to now, there is no evidence that stem cell therapy has anti-aging effects, said FDA acting Director General Kenneth Hartigan-Go.

The FDA recognizes only hematopoietic (pertaining to the formation and development of blood cells) stem cell transplantation, corneal resurfacing with limbal stem cells and skin regeneration with epidermal stem cells as generally accepted standards of health care.

Asked if this meant anti-aging stem cell therapies would not be allowed in the Philippines, Go said: It means that if the health claim is for burn patients, requirements that need to be submittedlike clinical trial reportsare expected to be complete, whereas if the claim is for anti-aging, then the requirements may be more extensive and intensive considering that products for anti-aging claims are still controversial.

Facility accreditation

The FDA said it had been continuously collaborating with the Department of Healths Bureau of Health Facilities and Services (BHFS) in accrediting facilities that deal with human cells, tissues, and cellular and tissue-based products (HCT/Ps), laboratory and therapeutic activities or services.

As of Sept. 24, 51 facilities have applied for accreditation, and 11 of these have been inspected by the BHFS, the FDA said.

No automatic approval

Submission of an application, however, does not necessarily result in automatic approval.

The FDA guidelines require that all stem cell and cellular-based treatments offered in the country should first pass the agencys standards for safety, efficacy and quality.
