Regenerative medicine: harnessing the body's natural potential

Regenerative medicine is the future standard of treatment for many diseases and injuries. It uses stem cells and biological substances produced by the patient's body to rebuild and restore the function of damaged tissues. Unlike traditional methods focused on alleviating symptoms, regenerative medicine aims to eliminate the cause of the disease and improve quality of life in the long term.

The future of regenerative therapies

Current therapies using MSCs and PRP are just the beginning. Dynamic development in this area is possible thanks to intensive research in veterinary and translational medicine. Sanford Biotech has been developing innovative cellular and biological preparations for dogs, cats, horses and cattle for years – this experience provides a solid foundation for transferring solutions to the human therapy market. In the future, products such as autologous cell banks, MSC therapies and inflammatory modulators (ILA-1) may become key tools in the treatment of chronic diseases and orthopaedic injuries, kidney diseases and neurology.

Modern methods in the service of regeneration

In our research, we focus on proven, effective methods of regenerative medicine that utilise the patient's own resources, minimising the risk of complications.

Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are unique cells capable of self-renewal and differentiation into tissues such as cartilage, bone or adipose tissue. Thanks to this, they effectively support regenerative processes.

How it works?

A small amount of the patient's adipose tissue is collected (e.g. from the abdominal area). MSCs are isolated from it in the laboratory and then administered to the site of damage, e.g. to a joint, muscle or skin. There, they begin the process of rebuilding and extinguishing inflammation.

Application of MSC:

• Orthopaedics – osteoarthritis, cartilage, tendon and ligament damage.
• Aesthetic medicine – improving skin quality, reducing wrinkles and scars.
• Injury treatment – accelerating recovery after injuries.

Platelet-rich plasma therapy (PRP)

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is a concentrate of platelets rich in growth factors that naturally stimulate healing and regeneration processes.

How it works?A small blood sample is taken from the patient. After centrifugation, a PRP preparation is obtained, which is administered to the site of damage to initiate the repair process.

Application of PRP:

• Orthopaedics and sports medicine – muscle and ligament injuries, enthesopathies.
• Dermatology – skin rejuvenation, treatment of scars and discolouration.
• Trichology – support in the treatment of hair loss.
