Stem Cell for Hormonal Enchancment

In recent years stem cell therapy has been used to improve and enhance the effect of hormones in human body. Gender dimorphisms exist in the pathogenesis of a variety of cardiopulmonary, neurodegenerative, and endocrine disorders. For example, Esterogens exert immense influence on myocardial remodeling following ischemic injury, partially through paracrine growth hormone production by bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell and endothelial progenitor cells. Esterogen also facilitates the mobilization of endothelial progenitor cells to the ischemic myocardium and enhance neovascularization at the ischemic border zone.

Androgens also may stimulate endothelial progenitor cell migration from the bone marrow. The beneficial effects of sex steroids include alteration of lipid metabolism in adipocytes, modulation of bone metabolism and skeletal maturation, and prevention of osteoporosis. Recent studies reported the investigation to modulate the function of cells in body through hormonal enhancement, with the ultimate goal is to generate more potent stem cell application for the treatment of human disease.
