Part of our non-invasive, same-day treatment at Chattanooga Integrated Medicine Center is our Regenerative Medicine treatment. We know that by building on what your body can innately do and stimulating it in a very powerful way can provide complete and total healing without the stress, cost, and downtime of surgery. We use an infusion of cells, Mesenchymal stem cells, and we want to tell you more about what that means.

Mesenchymal stem cells are adult stem cells isolated from different sources that can differentiate into other types of cells. In humans, these sources include; bone marrow, fat (adipose tissue), umbilical cord tissue (Wharton’s Jelly) or amniotic fluid (the fluid surrounding a fetus).

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), or stromal stem cells, can differentiate into many different types of cells within the body, including:

• Bone cells
• Cartilage
• Muscle cells
• Neural cells
• Skin cells
• Corneal cells 

We all have Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). MSCs are primarily found in the bone marrow of every person and remain dormant until called upon to promote healing within the body. They age as we age, and their number and effectiveness decreases over the years. 

The medical community has known of the existence of MSCs since the late 19th century. However, it has only been with recent advancements that physicians have been able to activate and supplement these cells to treat a variety of conditions.

Where are mesenchymal stem cells sourced?

For years, researchers believed that mesenchymal stem cells only existed within bone marrow. However, research has found that there are a variety of sources for MSCs, including donated umbilical cord tissue, body fat, molar teeth, and donated amniotic fluid.

The cells derived from cord tissue, more specifically Wharton’s Jelly, are the youngest and most primitive MSCs available. With the majority of umbilical cords simply discarded after childbirth, this source is ethical, non-harmful and readily available.

The young nature of these cells allows enormous potential for them to transform into whatever type of cell is necessary within the body. Youthful cells also tend to replicate at a faster rate, and MSCs have the ability not only to differentiate into other cell types but multiply to increase their healing effect on the body.

Our focus at Chattanooga Integrated Medicine Center is on providing you the highest level of service using the most advanced techniques available. We’re focused on reinventing modern medical practice and have over 10 years’ combined medical experience.
