Treating Lung Disease in Florida

Florida is home to many progressive medical companies. One such medical treatment facility, the Lung Institute, is leading the new field of adult stem cell therapies for lung disease.

Adult Stem Cell Treatment

Adult stem cells can be utilized in any organ in the body since stem cells are able to mimic any differentiated cell. Since they are capable of self-renewing indefinitely, they can divide many times and can specialize to promote the healing of organs, such as lungs, while still sustaining the original cell.

While there are many options for the type of stem cell used in the science, the Lung Institute only treats with adult autologous stem cells. This means the stem cells are directly coming from a patient’s own body and are later infused back into the same patient. This decreases the possibility of rejection and eliminates any possible controversy associated with stem cells. Through regenerative medicine, stem cells replicate continuously, the lungs grow stronger, and patients are able to breathe easier and live better.

Stem Cell Therapy for Lung Disease

Lung disease like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), chronic bronchitis, emphysema, interstitial lung disease and pulmonary fibrosis can be treated with stem cells. These cells are introduced into the body and find the area of diseased cells and

Venous Stem Cell Treatment – Some patients may undergo a venous stem cell treatment. This purely blood-derived treatment is less invasive. In addition, follow-up treatments may need to be performed more often for optimal results.
