YouTube video by Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter ("PRP + Stem Cells: Power Duo for Joint Pain"). In this excerpt the speaker explains that stem cells migrate and can be directed toward damaged joint tissue by using PRP as a signaler; bathing the joint with PRP helps stem cells move in the right direction and produce clinical benefit.
And they can make a big difference for patients.
That's because stem cells will migrate. They go into different areas, and that's part of the point of using PRP or a signaler. If we bathe the joint with prp, then we get those stem cells moving in the right direction already. So I think that's a really cool point. That's what's so powerful about them, is we can inject them just into sort of a general area and they can make a big difference for patients.
