The Regeneration Center provides information about regenerative-medicine services, clinical assessment and cell banking in Thailand. A consultation assesses the individual case, including current care, possible alternatives and the evidence for the actual intervention. This page describes who writes and reviews the site, how it treats evidence, the center’s main office and the treatment pages it publishes.
Who Writes and Reviews This Site
The English pages on this site are written by KC Zhang, PhD, and other medical officers of the center. Treatment and oncology pages are medically reviewed by Dr Kampon Sriwatanakul, MD, PhD. How content is written and reviewed is described on our editorial team page. Information on this site is not medical advice; see our medical disclaimer.
How This Site Treats Evidence
The International Society for Stem Cell Research advises that very few stem cell treatments have been proven safe and effective: blood-forming stem cell transplants for diseases of the blood, and tissue grafts for some bone, skin and corneal injuries and diseases. It describes all other uses as highly experimental, to be proven in clinical trials.[1] As of November 2026, the US Food and Drug Administration list of approved cellular and gene therapy products includes cord blood products of blood-forming cells, gene-modified products made from patients’ own blood stem cells and one mesenchymal stromal cell product.[2] The FDA states that no regenerative medicine therapy is approved for conditions such as ALS, Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease, stroke, heart disease, emphysema or COPD, osteoarthritis, or back, knee or shoulder pain, and that a listing on clinicaltrials.gov or a company’s registration with the FDA does not mean a product is legally marketed.[3]
The ISSCR advises checking whether a treatment has regulatory approval for that condition or is part of a trial listed in a recognised registry, and warns that patient testimonials can mislead. It also points out that tissue-specific stem cells make only the cell types of their own tissue, so one cell treatment is unlikely to work for many unrelated diseases, and that a patient’s own cells are not automatically safe once they have been removed, processed and given back.[1] Where stem cell treatment stands in each area is explained on our pages about stem cell therapy and on regenerative medicine, and the two broad kinds of cell treatment on our pages on autologous stem cells (the patient’s own cells) and allogeneic stem cells (cells from a donor). Background on cell sources is on our pages on somatic stem cells, dental pulp stem cells and cord blood.
Cell Banking
Cell banking means processing and freezing a cell sample for possible future use. For cord blood, families can donate to a public bank, where a unit is available to any patient who needs it, or store it in a private bank for the child or close relatives.[4] The American Academy of Pediatrics notes that public banking is free for families, while private banking has a significant cost that insurance does not cover, a privately stored unit may never be used, and private banks have been found to be used less often for treatment and to be less regulated for quality control than public banks.[5] In the United States, a bank’s registration with the FDA means only that it has notified the agency of its activities; it is not an endorsement.[4] How cells are collected, frozen and stored is described on our page on cell collection, cryopreservation and banking.
