How BMC Injections Work
The human body naturally contains all the components needed to create a natural cell therapy, including BMC. But what is autologous bone marrow concentrate, and how does it work?
The term stem cell represents many different types of cells found throughout the body. These cells are unique in the fact that they don’t just serve a single purpose. In fact, they are very versatile and can serve many functions to support the body. In many respects, they serve a “leadership role” among your cells, rallying, signalling and coordinating necessary types of cells to remove damaged tissue and restore or maintain healthy tissue at all times. Stem cells also have the ability to become a new or replacement cell, depending on where they are needed to maintain healthy tissues.
Inside your own bone marrow, there exists different types of stem cells including:
- Endothelial progenitor cell
- Hematopoietic stem cells
- Mesenchymal stem cells
Each of these cell types can be extracted from your bone marrow via a process known as stem cell harvesting, through a simple needle based blood draw procedure.
Progenitor cells, are similar to stem cells but are felt to be slightly more limited in their abilities to become another type of cell. Unlike other forms of cell therapy, including PRP, the cells extracted from marrow cannot simply be separated and used on their own. Instead, they work in a coordinated fashion to produce a beneficial treatment effect. Using our state-of-the-art processing facilities, Greyledge is able to concentrate these specialized cells, amplifying their capabilities and helping physicians to optimize each patient’s treatment outcome.
Our processing facilities can also produce a product by stimulating a natural matrix formation containing these cells as well as platelets, both of which release of growth factors which can be applied to certain types of damaged tissues. This type of preparation creates what is know as a “regenerative triad” or a commonly accepted tissue engineering approach, as it provides the three comprehensive elements (cells, signals and scaffolds), all of which are needed to support repair in a patient’s affected area.

Frequently Asked Questions about BMC
What is the difference between stem cells and progenitor cells?
The value of a true stem cell is in its ability to become any type of cell you could possibly find in the human body. Bone marrow progenitor cells are also valuable, but they’re slightly more limited in their ability to transform, and can only become one of a smaller number of specialized cells. However, when concentrated together, progenitor cells and stem cells form a potent BMC therapeutic.
I’ve heard about multipotent stem cells. What are they?
Most adult stem cells are multipotent stem cells. This means that they have the ability to renew themselves, developing and multiplying into multiple specialized types of cells needed in the area of your treatment. That’s how autologous BMC is able to help your body control and repair damaged cartilage and tissue at a faster, more effective rate than it would be capable of on its own*.
