Biohellenika - Why Preservation is Important

Why Preservation of adipose tissue derived stem cells is Important

Why Preservation of adipose tissue derived stem cells  is Important
Whoever has an active role in healthcare and welcomes the idea of regenerative medicine should inform and suggest the preservation of adipose-derived primitive and regenerative cells. Scientific studies have shown that these cells have the potential to play an important role in personalized regenerative medicine.
Consult your doctor and ask for more information regarding the next steps. We also invite you to visit our website www.biohellenika.gr for further information.
