Basically,in regenerative medicne, we have three regenerative technologies

working together to fully maintain our vital human organs. Restoring and rejuvenating the stem cell population is
Replenish: Stem cells, the regenerative engine of the body rejuvenating yourself.
Rejuvenate: Blood molecules (PRP W/Cytokines (parabiosis).
Replace: Organ regeneration and bioprinting

One option to accomplish this restoration and rejuvenation is to extract and concentrate your own autologous adult stem cells from
places like your adipose (or fat) tissue or bone marrow.
The nine hallmarks of aging
Genomic instability Cellular processes cause damage to genes, expose to increased radiation or free radicals, known to accelerate aging.
Telomere attrition Telomeres shorten as DNA replicates; if a reaches a critical shortness, cell stop dividing, increase incidence of disease.
Epigenetic alterations Environmental factors will change how genes are expressed
Loss of proteostasis: Different proteins in the body no longer fold and function as they are supposed to, resulting in diseases (Neuro/cancer)
Nutrient levels can influence metabolic pathways. The affected are proteins like IGF-1, mTOR, sirtuins, and AMPK.
Deregulated nutrient-sensing:
Changing levels of these proteins’ pathways has implications on longevity.
Mitochondrial dysfunction Mitochondria begin to decline in performance as we age. Decreased performance results in aging.
Cellular senescence: Cells age, stop working and cannot be removed from the body. They build up and typically cause increased inflammation.
Stem cell exhaustion As we age, our supply of stem cells begins to diminish as much as 100 to 10,000-fold in different tissues and organs.
Altered intercellular communication: Communication mechanisms that cells use, disrupted as cells age, resulting in decreased information cells to cell.

Aging is a balance between entropy (aging or slow breaking down of tissue) and rebuilding (stem cells).
