Gregory Laurence, MD introduces cell surgery and explains the purpose of this podcast series addressing the role of the use of stem cell and stromal vascular fraction. Regenerative medicine, in its broadest definition, includes:
Nutrition, risk avoidance, exercise, bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT), platelet rich plasma (PRP), and cell surgery (the topic of this series). There is much confusion regarding the cellular area of regenerative medicine. It has not been fully determined which cell sources are the most effective. Choices from one’s own body (autologous) include: peripheral, bone marrow, and adipose-derived. Other "off-the-shelf" options are also available for therapeutic use.
Dr. Laurence is the Founder of Germantown Aesthetics and Complete Medical Care Germantown near Memphis, TN. Dr. Laurence received his undergraduate and doctorate degrees from Baylor University and the University of Texas at Houston Medical School. Dr. Laurence fulfilled his initial specialty training at Saint Francis Family Medicine at the University of Tennessee. As a longstanding member and recent president of the American Society of Cosmetic Breast Surgery, Dr. Laurence has worked with adipose tissue as a breast and body grafting technique. He has expanded the traditional use of technology and pioneered several innovative, minimally invasive surgical techniques. Dr. Laurence has represented the industry by being involved with overseas promotion of a medical device. He is one of the few certified faculty teaching platelet rich plasma (PRP) Vampire™ procedures and other regenerative medicine procedures. Contact the staff at www.lasermemphis.com or 901-624-5605.

Episode 6 (6 of 9): Connections between fat cells, What is going on?
The Revolution of Regenerative Medicine:
Stromal vascular fraction (SVF) is a combination of multiple cellular and extracellular factors which can be moved from one area of the body to another. Bone marrow SVF-acquisition may be demonstrated to have substantial efficacy for certain clinical applications, but fatty compartments are normally easier to access. Most physicians don’t realize that the majority of cells in adipose/fat tissue are NOT fat cells. There is some evidence that adipose-derived SVF may have higher counts of the most important cells. These cellular (and extracellular factors), once they are removed and re-deployed, essentially perform the same tasks that they were always meant to perform in their original fat tissue location. The important cell players: the mesenchymal stem cell, hematopoietic stem cell, pericyte, macrophage, lymphocyte, and pre-adipocyte all have unique roles. Likely they work together in a “symphony” of coordinated behavior. We are still discovering the best way to deploy these factors potentially with engineered “designer cells.”
