Abstract in brief

  • The study identifies a new type of stem cell called Endometrial Regenerative Cells (ERC) that can be isolated from menstrual blood, can grow in culture, and retain key stem cell markers without genetic issues.
  • ERC cells grow faster than other common stem cells like those from umbilical cords and can turn into a variety of cell types, including heart, lung, nerve, and blood vessel cells.
  • These cells produce high levels of important factors for tissue growth and repair, making them a promising and easily accessible alternative source of stem cells for medical treatments.]

One of my favorite discoveries... together with @neilriordan we discovered #stemcells from menstrual blood and took the company Medistem from 8 cents a shares to a sale at $1.35 https://t.co/rqOYyT3NBq I am working hard at replicating this progress at $tsoi

@neilriordan Thanks. https://t.co/20Fbxaw9lw Researchers from Iran took the lead from those in Korea & Israel et al., by placing God's Creation of energy-as-information first in the context of light-activated pH-dependent carbon fixation and microRNA-mediated protein folding chemistry.
