Adult Bone MArrow Stem Cells
All of the blood cells that circulate in our bodies start out as young (immature) cells called hematopoietic (blood-forming) stem cells. Even though they are often called "stem cells" for short, these cells are not the same as embryonic stem cells, which are studied in therapeutic cloning and other types of research. Within the cavity of many bones is a red, spongy material called bone marrow. Bone marrow contains special cells (stem cells), which are precursors of other cells. Stem cells mostly live in the bone marrow (the spongy inner part of certain bones), where they constantly divide to make new blood cells. Once blood cells mature they leave the bone marrow and enter the bloodstream. A smaller number of stem cells also circulate in the bloodstream. These are called peripheral blood stem cells.
Stem cells produce the 3 main types of blood cells: red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Bone Marrow Stem Cells can regenerate new tissue and cells. The bone marrow of the body produces Adult Stem Cells that can generate “New Tissue” in damaged organs such as heart, liver, lungs, brain, pancreas, the list is unlimited. Currently these Stem Cells are administered in the form of bone marrow concentrate from the patient with no rejection. The global vision of the company is to open multiple Immune Therapy Clinics within all major countries through a consolidated joint effort of the various medical professions to bring unified knowledge with the treatment answers for Chronic Disease for mankind.
Certain diseases can cause bone marrow to stop working or to be replaced by nonfunctioning cells. For example, in aplastic anemia the bone marrow stops producing any cells. In leukemia, cancerous cells replace the normal marrow. BMT can be effective treatment in both these cases.
In other cases, disease treatment can damage the bone marrow. For example, the high doses of chemotherapy (anticancer drugs) and radiation therapy used to treat cancer of the lymph system (lymphoma) or solid tumors can affect the marrow’s ability to produce blood cells. BMT may be used to "rescue" a person from the effects of such treatments.

Villa Natura in cooperation with numerous scientists from Europe, Asia and North America, have made significant progress toward our goal of making adult stem cell transplants a reality. The effect of transplanted adult stem cells in the human body is to generate new tissue in organs such as the heart, liver, lung and pancreas. The stem cells can also repair damaged nerves, muscles, joints, spine and bones. Hence we are on the verge of creating new methods to treat heart disease, stroke, diabetes, hepatitis C, Lymes and other biological infections, lung cancer, burns, arthritis, spinal cord injuries and torn cartilage and ruptured tendons in the knees, ankles and other joints. Our established transplant procedures will incorporate the technology of harvesting pluripotent adult stem cells from each patient, growing the stem cells in a microbiology lab to create an unlimited number of the pluripotent cells and then transplanting the adult stem cells into the damaged tissue or organ. Once the stem cells are transplanted, immune therapy protocols are applied to accelerate the healing process.
