Invest in the future with Stem Cells

 

Newborn stem cells, present in the umbilical cord, possess significant therapeutic potential as they can repair and regenerate various cell types before undergoing differentiation. This makes stem cells valuable for treating a wide range of diseases in the future. SecuriGene offers a comprehensive Blood & Tissue Stem Cell Cryopreservation package, preserving both Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), ensuring a 100% match for your child and the potential for high matches among genetically similar family members. Our service provides a versatile and valuable resource for future medical needs.

 

What SecuriGene Offers:

  • Comprehensive Full-Service Stem Cell Cryopreservation Package: Instead of separate pricing for cord blood and cord tissue, we provide a unified offering for maximum value.

Stem cells are fundamental undifferentiated cells with the capacity to develop into various cell types. These precious cells are nearly exclusively obtainable at birth through cord blood and cord tissue and form the basis for stem cell-based transplants and regenerative medicines crucial for curing and treating diseases throughout an individual’s lifetime.

Two distinct types of stem cells include Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) derived from cord blood and Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) sourced from the umbilical cord tissue. SecuriGene’s Stem Cell Cryopreservation kit preserves both HSCs and MSCs for future therapeutic use.

What is the difference between HSCs and MSCs?

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) originate from the blood in a baby’s umbilical cord. These cells have had a successful transplant history for over 30 years and are currently used to treat over 80+ conditions, revolutionizing the approach to treating diseases like sickle cell anemia, leukemia, Tay-Sachs disease, lymphoma, Krabbe disease, and other immunodeficiency diseases.

On the other hand, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), originate from the baby’s umbilical cord tissue and represent the next stage in stem cell research. These cells possess the ability to regulate the body’s immune response, stimulate tissue repair, and reduce inflammation. Current research has demonstrated promise in MSCs helping to treat tissue and organ damage, autoimmune, neurological, and cardiovascular conditions such as stroke, ALS, and Alzheimer’s disease.

With over 1,000 clinical trials underway targeting common diseases like diabetes, arthritis, Alzheimer’s disease, hypertension, HIV, ovarian cancer, and glaucoma, preserving both HSCs and MSCs is crucial for accessing the full spectrum of potential stem-cell transplants and regenerative medicine treatments.

More Questions »

Once cryopreserved, your baby’s stem cells will remain viable for a lifetime.

Absolutely! You have the option to delay cord clamping even if you decide to bank cord blood and/or cord tissue. Numerous scientific studies indicate that delayed clamping does not significantly impact the yield of stem cells collected from cord blood.

Given the current use of cord blood stem cells in treating over 80 life-threatening diseases and ongoing clinical trials addressing conditions from cancers to heart disease, the likelihood of stem cell applications expanding during your child’s lifetime is high. Based on published data revealing an 87% chance of developing diseases like heart disease, osteoarthritis, diabetes, stroke, or dementia, coupled with advancements in stem cell research, it is probable that stem cells will play a crucial role in treating life-threatening diseases in your baby’s lifetime.

Your child’s cord blood stem cells are a perfect match for themselves with no chance of rejection. While it also presents a high match for other family members, the probability of matching a sibling is approximately 50%. Banking the stem cells for each child ensures that they have their own readily available stem cells for their lifetime.

Cord Blood contains Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). These cells are used in bone marrow transplants for 80+ diseases including cancer, genetic diseases and blood disorders.

Cord Tissue contains Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). These cells can inhibit inflammation, suppress the immune response, aid in tissue repair and differentiate into structural tissue including bone and cartilage. Clinical development of MSCs is at an earlier stage, and clinical trials are investigating treatment options for diseases like heart failure, stroke, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis among others.

SecuriGene’s Stem Cell Cryopreservation Kit includes banking for Stem Cells from both Cord Blood and Cord Tissue so you can maximize your access to all treatments in regenerative medicine.
