Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune neuromuscular disease leading to fluctuating muscle weakness and fatigability. It is an autoimmune disorder, in which weakness is caused by circulating antibodies that inhibit the excitatory effects of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine on neuromuscular junctions. Muscular fatigue is often seen and MG is associated with ocular problems, and speech, swallowing, and…

CIDP also known as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy is an auto-immune disease of the nervous system characterized by progressive weakness and impaired sensory function in the legs and arms. CIDP is closely related to Guillan-Barre Disease. Treatment for CIDP includes steroids and immunosuppressant drugs. Plasmapheresis (plasma exchange) and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy also commonly used.…

Scleroderma also known as systemic sclerosis, is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by damage to endothelial and smooth muscle cells of the small arteries. Replacement with fibrous material results, and there is an influx of inflammatory cells. Primarily affects skin and joints but can affect the heart and lungs, and digestive tract. Some types of…

Neck Arthritis and Spine Disease Neck Arthritis and Spine disease have two common problems causing neck pain, degenerative disk disease and facet arthropathy (a type of arthritis) of the cervical spine. Not all disk problems are amenable to regenerative therapy and patient selection is very important to optimize outcomes. Many forms of spine pain are…

Back Arthritis and Spine Disease Back arthritis and Spine Disease have two common problems causing back pain, degenerative disk disease and facet arthropathy (a type of arthritis). Not all disk problems are amenable to regenerative therapy and patient selection is very important to optimize outcomes. Many forms of back pain are actually due to arthritis…

Researchers Turn Liposuctioned Fat Cells Into Small Blood Vessels Regenerative medicine gets another boost. A team of researchers out of Oklahoma used adult stem cells extracted during liposuction to grow healthy new small-diameter blood vessels for use in heart bypass surgery and other procedures. The preliminary findings were presented at the American Heart Association’s Basic…

This National Affiliate Research Network will learn cell surgical techniques of cell procurement and deployment to reproduce proprietary procedures performed at the California Stem Cell Treatment Center. This past week, our first group of physicians from all over the country and Mexico attended our first training meeting of the affiliate program in Indian Wells California.…

Hair Regeneration With Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) Hair Regeneration with Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) is now available at California Stem Cell Treament Center. Based on animal models of hair regrowth (by stimulation of dormant follicles) and anecdotal cases of hair restoration associated with the administration of adult mesenchymal stem cells, sufficient evidence exists to justify a pilot…
