Joint and Bone Diseases
Overall, the therapeutic effects are attributed to their ability to modulate immune responses, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue repair and regeneration. These properties make them a promising tool in regenerative medicine for conditions such as osteoarthritis, bulging and herniated discs, arthritis, degenerative discs, muscular dystrophies, and other musculoskeletal disorders. Mechanism of action:
-
1
Regeneration of Damaged Tissues:
stem cells differentiate into specialized cells, such as chondrocytes (cartilage cells), osteoblasts (bone cells), or tenocytes (tendon cells), which contribute to tissue regeneration.
-
2
Anti-Inflammatory Effects:
Stem cells reduce inflammation in affected tissues, which is a major contributor to pain and further degeneration in musculoskeletal and disc diseases. They do it through modulating the immune response by secreting anti-inflammatory cytokines and inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokines, reducing inflammation and swelling.
-
3
Immunomodulation:
MSCs interact with immune cells, including T-cells, B-cells, and macrophages, to shift the response from a pro-inflammatory (M1 macrophages) to an anti-inflammatory (M2 macrophages) state. This reduces autoimmune responses and chronic inflammation.
-
4
Pain Reduction:
By reducing inflammation, repairing damaged tissues, and stabilizing joints or discs, MSCs indirectly reduce mechanical and inflammatory pain. Some studies suggest that MSCs may also influence pain pathways by modulating sensory nerve activity.

-
2
Systemic Anti-Aging Effects:
stem cells have been shown the potential to rejuvenate our own aged mesenchymal stem cells and slow age-related degeneration. They have the power to transfer anti-aging signals, enhance the regenerative capacities of recipient cells, improve bone formation, wound healing, and angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels). Furthermore, they have been reported to improve cognitive function by enhancing synaptic plasticity and neurogenesis, potentially through the activation of specific signaling pathways.
-
3
Immune Modulation:
it has been shown that stem cells attenuate age-related immune dysfunctions. This includes reducing senescent T-cell populations and improving the balance of naïve to memory T-cells, which may contribute to a more efficient immune response in aged organisms.
-
4
Hair health:
Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells have shown potential in promoting hair health, particularly in the context of hair loss conditions such as androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata. The therapeutic effects are primarily attributed to their ability to modulate the hair follicle microenvironment and promote hair follicle regeneration through various mechanisms. They can prevent hair regression and promote hair growth by enhancing the proliferation of dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes, which are crucial for hair follicle health.

Heart diseases

Heart Diseases
They can be used for various cardiovascular conditions, including myocardial infarction, heart failure, fibrosis, ischemic disease, and cardiomyopathy, among others. Here's how they work:
-
1
Regenerating Damaged Heart Tissue:
After a heart attack or other cardiac injury, heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) are often damaged or lost. Umbilical cord stem cells release growth factors stimulating the repair, regeneration, and formation of new cardiomyocytes, improving the heart's structural integrity.
-
2
Promoting Angiogenesis (Formation of New Blood Vessels):
This process encourages the development of new blood vessels, enhancing blood flow to oxygen-deprived areas of the heart. Improved circulation supports tissue recovery and reduces further damage.
-
3
Reducing Inflammation and Immune Modulation:
Chronic inflammation contributes to the progression of heart disease and heart failure. Umbilical cord stem cells release anti-inflammatory cytokines and also modulate immune responses, preventing the immune system from attacking healthy heart tissue.
-
4
Improving Heart Function:
By repairing tissue, forming new blood vessels, and reducing inflammation, umbilical cord stem cells improve the heart's contractility and efficiency, alleviating symptoms of heart failure and enhancing overall quality of life.

Digestive system diseases
Ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, inflammatory bowel diseases, peptic ulcers, acid reflux, among others

Digestive System Diseases
Their pathways of action are very interesting and can bring beneficial results:
-
1
Immune modulation:
They achieve this through the regulation of T cell responses, thereby reducing inflammation.
-
2
Restoring Gut Barrier Function:
Stem cells promote the production of tight junction proteins that strengthen the connections between intestinal cells. By restoring the barrier, they reduce systemic inflammation caused by the translocation of bacteria and toxins into the bloodstream.
-
3
Gut microbiota:
Stem cells help restore the balance of intestinal microbes, increasing the abundance of beneficial bacteria and promoting the production of short-chain fatty acids, which are important for maintaining intestinal health and promoting mucosal healing.
-
4
Anti-Inflammatory Effects:
Umbilical cord stem cells release anti-inflammatory cells while suppressing pro-inflammatory cytokines; these effects help calm inflamed areas and reduce symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding.
-
5
Intestinal epithelium repair:
They also play a role in the repair of intestinal epithelium, enhancing barrier function and reducing permeability, which are critical in preventing further inflammation and tissue damage.

Liver Diseases
-
1
Liver Tissue Regeneration:
Stem cells have the power to replace damaged hepatocytes and restore liver function. They release growth factors that promote cell proliferation and tissue repair.
-
2
Anti-Inflammatory Effects:
SC reduce chronic inflammation, which is a hallmark of liver diseases such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and autoimmune hepatitis, by secreting anti-inflammatory cytokines and suppressing pro-inflammatory cytokines. This reduces inflammation and promotes a healing environment.
-
3
Immunomodulation:
Stem cells balance the immune response in autoimmune and inflammatory liver diseases by reducing the activity of natural killer cells and macrophages that contribute to liver injury. This helps in conditions like autoimmune hepatitis by minimizing immune attacks on liver tissue.
-
4
Anti-Fibrotic Effects:
Stem cells have the power to reverse or prevent fibrosis by inhibiting the activation of hepatic stellate cells, which are responsible for producing fibrotic tissue. This reduces liver stiffness and improves functionality.
-
5
Promoting Angiogenesis:
Stem cells enhance blood flow to damaged areas of the liver to support healing by releasing pro-angiogenic factors, which stimulate the formation of new blood vessels. Improved vascularization aids in delivering oxygen and nutrients to regenerating liver cells.
