Immune Modulation

• Stem cells, particularly mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), help regulate the immune system by suppressing overactive immune responses.
• This reduces the attack on healthy joint tissues, addressing one of the root causes of RA.

Anti-Inflammatory Effects

• Stem cells release cytokines and other bioactive molecules that reduce inflammation in the joints.
• Decreasing inflammation helps alleviate pain, swelling, and stiffness.

Tissue Regeneration

• MSCs can differentiate into cartilage cells (chondrocytes), aiding in the repair and regeneration of damaged cartilage in joints.
• This slows or reverses joint degeneration, improving joint function.

Pain Reduction

• By reducing inflammation and promoting tissue healing, stem cell therapy can significantly reduce joint pain.
• Patients may rely less on pain medications, improving their quality of life.

Slows Disease Progression

• Stem cells may help preserve joint structure by protecting cartilage and bone from further damage.
• This can delay the need for more invasive treatments, such as joint replacement surgery.

Improves Mobility and Functionality

• As inflammation decreases and tissue repairs, joint mobility and flexibility improve.
• Patients can regain a greater range of motion and perform daily activities more easily.

Reduction in Systemic Symptoms

• RA often causes fatigue and other systemic symptoms due to chronic inflammation.
• By addressing the inflammatory response, stem cell therapy may alleviate these broader symptoms.

Minimal Side Effects

• Stem cell therapy is generally well-tolerated, with fewer side effects compared to conventional treatments like long-term immunosuppressants or biologics.
