"Your health to nurture the future. The Power of Stem Cells for a New Tomorrow."
1. What are stem cells?
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that can change into different types of cells before differentiating into a specific type of cell. They can be viewed as "primordial material" for becoming other types of cells in the body.
Stem cells fall into two main types: Embryonic stem cells and Adult or Somatic stem cells. Embryonic stem cells are found in the early stages of the embryo and can differentiate into any type of cell. Adult stem cells are found in specific tissues and organs of the body and can differentiate into cells of those tissues, but are generally restricted to specific types.
These properties have made stem cells of interest in regenerative medicine and disease therapy research. Due to their diverse differentiation capabilities and potential capacity for tissue repair, they may contribute to the development of treatments for a variety of diseases and injuries in the future.
What can stem cell therapy do for you?
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types. Therefore, the application of stem cells is expected to treat various diseases.
In Japanese medicine, many stem cell-based procedures are still in the research stage and are not covered by insurance. In recent years, however, clinical studies have suggested that stem cells may be effective in the treatment of various diseases.
Specifically, stem cells have been applied to treat the following diseases
-
Aplastic anemia
-
Myocardial infarction
-
Cerebral infarction
-
Parkinson's disease
-
Alzheimer's disease
-
Diabetes mellitus
-
Liver cirrhosis
-
Bone and joint diseases
In these diseases, transplantation of stem cells into damaged tissue is expected to regenerate tissue and restore function.
In addition, proteins and growth factors contained in stem cell culture medium have the effect of stimulating cell proliferation and differentiation, and are therefore applied to the treatment of various other diseases in addition to stem cell-based procedures. ↓
2. Stem Cell culture supernatant
↑For example, stem cell culture media are used to treat the following diseases
-
Cancer
-
Allergy
-
Immunodeficiency
-
Skin diseases
-
Eye disease
As stem cell research and development continues to advance, it is expected that stem cells will be applied to the treatment of even more diseases in the future.
Specifically, stem cells are expected to be applied to the treatment of the following diseases
-
Severe heart failure
-
Aortic aneurysm
-
Spinal cord injury
-
Hearing loss
-
Retinitis Pigmentosa
-
Regenerative medicine
Stem cell-based therapies are still in their infancy, but offer great potential. It is hoped that further research and development will improve the quality of life of many patients.
Many of them are still in the developmental stage and are not covered by insurance. However, recent evidence suggests that stem cells may be effective in treating a variety of diseases, and clinical research is underway.
2－① Stem Cell Culture Supernatant Let's Learn
It is not uncommon for people to think of stem cells as a mixture of stem cell therapy and stem cell culture supernatant solution.
Stem cell culture supernatant solution does not contain stem cells itself. It contains more than 200 growth factors that are grown together with the stem cells to make them work better during stem cell culture. Only the growth factors are extracted from the stem cell culture supernatant. Watch the video below to learn more about stem cell therapy and stem cell culture supernatant solution.
Also, please take a look at the three videos that touch on the basics of stem cells.

幹細胞治療と幹細胞培養上清液施術の定義と詳細
幹細胞治療の定義 幹細胞治療は、患者自身の幹細胞を用いて、損傷した組織や臓器の修復を目指す再生医療の一形態です。この治療法では、主に脂肪組織や骨髄、臍帯（へその緒）から採取した幹細胞を使用します。幹細胞は自己複製能力と多様な細胞に分化する能力を持ち、これにより組織の再生や機能回復を促進します。 幹細胞培養上清液の定義 幹細胞培養上清液とは、幹細胞を培養する過程で得られる上澄み液のことを指します。この液体には、幹細胞が分泌する成長因子やサイトカイン、エクソソームなど、細胞の機能回復に寄与する多くの生理活性物質が含まれています。従来、幹細胞の培養後に残るこの液体は医療廃棄物として処分されていましたが、研究によりその有効性が認識され、治療に利用されるようになりました。
幹細胞治療と幹細胞培養上清液施術の違い
細胞の由来: 幹細胞治療では患者自身の幹細胞を使用するのに対し、幹細胞培養上清液は他家の幹細胞から得られた上清液を使用します。 施術方法: 幹細胞治療は、幹細胞を直接注入する方法が一般的ですが、幹細胞培養上清液は、局所注射、点滴、点鼻など多様な投与方法があり、より広範な適用が可能です。 幹細胞培養上清液の効果と適用 幹細胞培養上清液には、以下のような効果が期待されています： 組織の修復: 上清液に含まれる成長因子やサイトカインが、細胞の再生や修復を促進します。これにより、皮膚の老化防止や、関節炎、神経疾患、肝疾患などの治療に利用されます。 美容効果: 美肌治療やエイジングケアとしても注目されており、肌のターンオーバーを促進し、弾力性を向上させる効果が期待されています。 副作用の少なさ: 幹細胞そのものを含まないため、拒絶反応のリスクが低く、安全性が高いとされています。 まとめ 日本の再生医療における幹細胞治療と幹細胞培養上清液施術は、いずれも細胞の再生能力を活用した治療法ですが、使用する細胞の種類や施術方法において異なります。幹細胞治療は患者自身の細胞を用いるのに対し、幹細胞培養上清液は他家の細胞から得られた上清液を利用し、より多様な治療法が展開されています。これらの治療法は、今後の医療において重要な役割を果たすことが期待されています。
