1. WHAT IS ARTHRITIS?
Arthritis is a condition in which one or more of your joints are inflamed. This can result in stiffness, soreness and in many cases swelling. Inflammatory and non-inflammatory arthritis are the two most common forms of the condition. Inflammatory arthritis is usually referred to as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and non-inflammatory arthritis is known as osteoarthritis (OA).
2. CAUSE OF ARTHRITIS
i) Osteoarthritis (OA)Even though it is called non-inflammatory arthritis, OA can still result in some inflammation of the joints. This inflammation results from wear and tear. In particular, OA re-sults from the breakdown of cartilage. Cartilage is the slick tissue that covers and cushions the ends of the bones in a joint.
ii) Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)RA is an autoimmune disease. This means the body’s immune system attacks healthy tissue. The cause of RA still remains a mystery. However, because women are more likely to develop RA than men are, researchers believe that it may involve genetic or hormonal factors.
3. SOURCE
- These are the most primitive and potent secretome (cytokines, growth factors, exosomes, etc.) derived from the baby MSC stem cells produced in highly accredited and experienced cGMP lab.
- It has excellent and very powerful regenerative and healing potentials at cellular level.
4. CHARACTERISTICS
- Anti – Inflammatory : Helps to reduce pain and inflammation at injured and aged site.
- Anti – Fibrotic : Prevents from scarring and wound formation.
- Pro – Angiogenic : Helps in the formation of new blood cells and extracellular matrix (i.e: process of regeneration to attract our body endogenous stem cells).
- Anti – Apoptotic : Prevents cells death and slow down aging.
5. BENEFITS
- Effective in regeneration of new cartilage cells.
- To reduce pain and inflammation at joints.
- Minimal invasive technique.
- Increase functionality, range of motion and flexibility.
- Cost effectiveness.
- Prevent degeneration of joints and cartilage.
6. MODE OF ACTION
- Anti – inflammatory properties (e.g: IL-10) play an important role in suppressing and neutralising the inflamed injury sites.
- The regeneration process then begins by attracting our body endogenous stem cells to the sites.
- Cells will be allowed to differentiate into desired function cells for tissue repair (i.e: Cartilage metabolism and repairs).
