Short YouTube video (creator: Joy Kong, MD) summarizing proposed benefits and mechanisms of stem cell therapy: breakdown of scar tissue, promotion of vascular/blood supply, donation of mitochondria to recipient cells (boosting cellular energy), rescuing cells from death, and selectively killing senescent and cancer cells. The clip poses a rhetorical challenge that no single drug performs all these functions.
And of course, I was talking about the different ways the stem cells work. In one way is to break down the scar tissue and promote vascular, you know, tissue, basically blood supply, you know, allowing more blood supply to happen. And it can also donate mitochondria. So fresh new mitochondria can get into, you know, the cells of the recipient and end up, you know, elevating your cellular energy. And it can rescue cells that don't have to die, but it can kill off cells that doesn't belong, the senescent cells and the cancer cells. So it has all these multiple layers function. Tell me one drug that can do that, right?
