Celltex Therapeutics is a Houston, Texas company that banks patients' own fat-derived mesenchymal stem cells for later therapeutic use, according to its website.
Celltex Therapeutics, trading as Celltex Bank, is a Houston, Texas company describing itself on its website as an FDA current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP)-compliant adult stem cell bank. It offers to collect, culture and store a patient's own mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs, a type of adult stem cell capable of developing into several different tissue types) so that they can be used later for the patient's own therapeutic purposes.
According to the website, Celltex sources its cells from a small sample of the patient's own adipose (fat) tissue, then isolates and expands the mesenchymal stem cells in its own Houston laboratory before returning them to the patient, or storing them, for autologous (from the patient's own body) use. The site references chronic conditions, pain, injury recovery and general wellness, and testimonials on the site mention shoulder injuries, osteoarthritis, degenerative conditions and sports medicine, though these are examples given by the company rather than a list of conditions it states it can treat.
The website states that its cells have been used in more than 10,000 stem cell procedures, a claim made by the company that is not independently verified here. It states that the site is available in English and Spanish, with a separate Mexico-based site also mentioned.
