Stem cells help regenerate and repair the body from within, which is essential to our health.
Banking your stem cells involves collecting, processing and storing these cells.
What are umbilical cord stem cells?
The umbilical cord contains millions of stem cells, cells which can be collected and stored at birth, and can be used to treat over 85 diseases and conditions. Stem cells in the umbilical cord are shared between mother and baby during pregnancy, making them a 100% match to the baby and a 25% match to any siblings. If collected and stored at birth, cord stem cells have the potential to be used for numerous future treatments for your children.
How stem cells work?
Stem cells can be found in various body tissues: blood, muscle, skin, bone marrow, nerves and the liver. The key property of all stem cells is that they are undifferentiated, meaning they can replicate endlessly and replace/renew many types of damaged cells in the body.
With this power to renew damaged cells that are so crucial to our body’s health, it comes as no surprise that stem cells are currently used in over 85 standard treatments. These include:

  • Leukaemia

  • Anaemia

  • Bone marrow cancer

  • Lymphomas

  • Inherited immune system disorders

  • Inherited metabolic disorders

  • Inherited red cell abnormalities

  • Solid tumours (outside the blood and immune system)

  • Myeloproliferative Disorders

  • Phagocyte Disorders

If stem cells are collected and stored, they can become part of many treatments that you might need in the future, to help tissue organically heal and repair.
