GenesisĀ® Regenerative Protein Arrays

GenesisĀ® Regenerative Protein Array RPA represents a groundbreaking therapy in regenerative medicine due to its sophisticated array of proteins, growth factors, and cytokines derived from placental tissue. This innovative approach to healing and anti-aging is based on the understanding that the therapeutic power of regenerative medicine lies not in the direct transformation of injected cells into target tissues, but rather in their ability to modify the surrounding cellular environment through key biologic messages.

GenesisĀ® RPA is created in a proprietary process of placing placental tissue in a specialized bioreactor, encouraging the emission of a rich array of healing components from all three layers of the placenta (endo/ecto/mesoderm) that are responsible for brain/nerve, soft tissue/organ, and musculoskeletal development in humans. The resulting product is an acellular, non-biologic, concentrated source of the broadest spectrum of bioactive components found in any regenerative product on the market, and these proteins have been proven in clinical studies to be pivotal in tissue regeneration and healing.

GenesisĀ® RPA is in a category of products that the FDA refers to as cell factors. The FDA’s position on cell factors is similar to sterile nutraceuticals or drug efficacy study implementation programs for unapproved drugs. The FDA regulates the manufacturing, processing, and distribution, but allows licensed clinicians to make use and care decisions in collaboration with their patients. RPA is produced in an FDA-registered facility following Human Cellular Therapy Tissue Product standards.

In summary, GenesisĀ® RPA is a transformative development in regenerative medicine, offering potent, safe, and versatile treatment options for a range of medical conditions. By harnessing the power of placental-derived growth factors and cytokines, GenesisĀ® RPA opens new avenues in the pursuit of healing and tissue regeneration, making a significant stride forward in medical science.”
