Stem Cells for Building New Bone

Can Stem Cells Help Build New Bone? Understanding Bone Regeneration Bone is a dynamic living tissue that continuously remodels and repairs itself throughout life. When injury, degeneration, or disease disrupts this process, healing may be slow or incomplete. Advances in regenerative medicine have explored whether stem cells can support bone repair, regeneration, and structural recovery. […]
A Surprising Finding of Fat

Using Fat To Repair Your Shoulder An investigation by University of Michigan researchers reveals new insight into why shoulder injuries take a long time to heal. Specifically, the researchers focused on why rotator cuff injuries tend to accumulate fatty tissue instead of new muscle. Tears of the rotator cuff, the group of four muscles and […]
Scleroderma and Exercise

Scleroderma and Exercise Scleroderma, also known as systemic sclerosis, is a chronic connective tissue disease that causes the hardening of the blood vessels, skin, and other connective tissues over time. When skin and connective tissues harden, it can make moving – and especially exercising – painful, uncomfortable, or downright impossible. So, how can people with […]
Does Diet Matter?

Does Diet Matter for Inflammation and Joint Health? Your diet plays a significant role in overall health — and research increasingly shows it can influence inflammation, pain perception, and joint function. Although diet alone doesn’t cure chronic conditions like arthritis, the foods you eat may help reduce inflammation and support long-term joint comfort. In this […]
20 Years of Research in Regenerative Medicine

Twenty Years of Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Research: Progress & Promise What Is Regenerative Medicine? Regenerative medicine is a field of medical science focused on repairing, replacing, or regenerating human cells, tissues, or organs to restore normal function. At its core are approaches that harness the body’s natural healing mechanisms — including stem cells, […]
Why is Stem Cell Therapy Increasing in Popularity?

Stem cell therapy using the patient’s own fat is a regenerative medical treatment that puts stem cells to work repairing tissues damaged by illness, injury, and aging. The interest in using stem cell therapy is growing across the country – but why? Find out more from Innovations Stem Cell. Why stem cells? Stem cells are […]
Waking Up Sleeping Stem Cells May Mean New Treatments for Alzheimer’s Disease

Stem Cell Research in Alzheimer’s Disease: What the Science Shows Stem cell research continues to attract interest for its potential to support tissue repair and modulate degenerative processes. Among the areas explored is Alzheimer’s disease, a progressive neurodegenerative condition that affects memory, thinking, and behavior. While laboratory research has uncovered intriguing biological mechanisms, it’s critical […]
New Diabetes Breakthrough May Mean New Treatments

New Diabetes Breakthrough May Mean New Treatments New research may mean advancements in treatment options for individuals living with type 1 diabetes. Researchers from the Diabetes Research Institute at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine have identified the existence of stem cells in the pancreas that can be developed into beta cells that […]
Stem Cell Therapy: An Alternative to Knee Replacement Surgery

It’s getting harder to walk or climb stairs. Exercising is seemingly impossible, and some days even getting out of a chair or out of bed hurts. Pain medications have stopped working. Anti-inflammatories and steroid injections helped short term, but you still feel pain. You also feel frustration and anxiety in the face of knee replacement […]
Stem Cells and Skin Treatments

Stem Cells and Skin Treatments Stem cells are gaining popularity as a way to treat a wide range of medical conditions including musculoskeletal conditions like osteoarthritis and tendonitis, autoimmune diseases like lupus and multiple sclerosis, heart and lung conditions like cardiomyopathy, heart attack, pulmonary fibrosis, and COPD. Stem cell therapy is also becoming more popular […]
