Stem Cells

Frequently Asked Question
Are stem cells used in AnteAGE?

Live stem cells are not used in AnteAGE. Rather, we grow human bone marrow stem cells under special conditions in labs and then extract only cytokines and growth factors, discarding everything else. AnteAGE products contain these cytokines and growth factors, which are proteins encapsulated in natural lipid envelopes to preserve them, keep them functional, and aid in transporting these rejuvenating agents.

Are the stem cells fetal or embryonic?

No, neither.

Our stem cells are sourced only from the bone marrow of young, healthy, pre-screened adult donors. Stem cell cytokines also contain none of the original cell parts themselves, only the beneficial growth factors they produce.

How does AnteAGE harvest stem cells for their products?

We source our stem cells from the bone marrow of young, healthy, pre-screened adult donors. The cells are cultured in a laboratory, within a controlled environment that fosters production of the biosignals that will engage in skin repair and rejuvenation. We then harvest and extract the powerful growth factors and cytokines inside, discarding the cell itself. Our products are 100% free of inflammatory cells, cell fragments, RNA, or DNA.

Is there a difference between bone marrow stem cells and plant stem cells?

Mesenchymal stem cells originating from bone marrow are the most powerful and versatile population in your body, able to transform into myriad cell types to fight injury and inflammation. As they leave the bone marrow and travel throughout the body, these stem cells act as command and control centers, directing the process of healing to minimize overall damage. We can't live without these cells, and yet we have fewer of them working for us with each passing day.

Cellese Regenerative Therapeutics cultures these cells in-vitro, providing them with a controlled environment to foster production of biosignals engaged in skin repair and rejuvenation. We harvest these Growth Factors & Cytokines they produce and use them as our products' primary active.

What are mesenchymal stem cells (MSC)?

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are special types of stem cells that are pluripotent and can differentiate into a variety of cell types including bone, cartilage, and muscles. They direct reparative biochemical functions by secreting a pattern of biosignals called cytokines, which begin a chain of communication with other cells to perform tasks that are orchestrated by the MSCs. The concentration and specific cytokine patterns they generate depends on the physiologic role from where they are sourced. This means that adipose-derived stem cells are programmed to produce new fat cells, and bone marrow stem cells are programmed to migrate to injuries and to regenerate new bone, tissue, or cartilage. However, in labs they can be manipulated and triggered to perform specific tasks regardless of their origin, such as generating elastin or fibroblasts despite originating from bone marrow

Growth Factors & Cytokines

Frequently Asked Question
What are growth factors?

Growth factors are subset of cytokines with extracellular polypeptide proteins found in a variety of cellular processes, such cell growth and migration, and are integral in wound repair.

Are some pro-inflammatory cytokines helpful?

Inflammatory cytokines may be helpful to begin the injury repair process, but you want to quickly transition from inflammatory to anti-inflammatory (the so-called regenerative phase of wound healing). If you stay in an inflammatory state for prolonged periods, you may get scars, rigid fibroblasts, poor cross linking on collagen fibers, high levels of proteases, which accelerates the appearance of aging rather than being anti-aging. In microneedling treatments, the needles that penetrate the skin induce an inflammatory response that will generate pro-inflammatory cytokines, so there is no need to add more. However, healing duration will be shorter with additional anti-inflammatory cytokines.

What are Stem | GF Cytokines?

This is the proprietary blend of growth factors and cytokines extracted from bone marrow stem cells used in AnteAGE, and are the biosignals that can communicate with human cells.

What are bio-identical growth factors?

Bio-identical growth factors are proteins that have been combined to create a molecular structure that is identical to what is found in human sources and have the same effect. Some recombinant growth factors are included in AnteAGE to supplement the broad range of biologic proteins found in humans. However, there are only a few commercially and economically available, and therefore do not fully replicate the blend that can be sourced in bone marrow stem cells.

AnteAGE® Products

Frequently Asked Question
How long does it typically take to see results?

Some results take time to achieve, and others happen quite fast. Some users see results in as little as 4 days. Typically, most people see noticeable results within 30 days. Most importantly, you’re preventing new visible signs of aging every day when you use the AnteAGE system.
