Understanding the

Stem cells.

There are different types of stem cells in the human body, each with its own specific function. Find out below what they are and which type R-Crio works with.

Stem cells

They are NOT all the same.

Stem cells are the body's mother cells , with the ability to transform into different cell types and regenerate damaged tissues. They are essential for regenerative medicine and have the potential to treat degenerative and autoimmune diseases.

Throughout our lives, our stem cells become more specialized, increasingly "limited" to forming a certain part of our body.

However, our body maintains some undifferentiated (non-specialized) stem cells in some places in the body in case there is a need.

So, for example, when we cut our arm, the body will promote an inflammatory process and the nearby stem cells will go to the site to regenerate. They begin to transform into skin cells, muscle cells, blood vessels, and everything we need to regenerate that cut.

At R-Crio we know these places where the cells are, and we can collect and multiply them to use them more assertively than the organism itself.

Differences between collection of

cord blood and baby tooth cells.

A very common question among mothers who are thinking about storing their children's stem cells.

See the main differences between stem cells from umbilical cord blood and those from baby teeth.

Mesenchymal stem cells

R-Crio works exclusively with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). These are multipotent adult stem cells capable of transforming into different types of cells in the human body to promote regeneration.

The triad of regenerative medicine.

Regenerative medicine relies on three essential factors: stem cells, biomaterials and signaling.

Stem cells are the basis of therapy, as they transform into other cell types and promote regeneration. However, many therapies require structural support, such as biomaterials (implants, membranes, hydrogels), which act as a platform for the cells to attach themselves and perform their function.

Furthermore, to guide cell differentiation, chemical signals (proteins or inducing factors) are necessary, which can be applied in the laboratory or released directly by the biomaterial, indicating which type of cell should be formed (bone, skin, muscle, cartilage, etc.).
