Regrowth Neurons also called Neuro-Regeneration

Regrowth Neurons

Regrowth Neurons are also called Neuro-Regeneration.

Regrowth neurons… also called Neuro-Regeneration, is one of the most complicated issues in medicine/science. The subject matter concerns the repair and regrowth of nerve cells called neurons. The long body of the neuron is called the Axon. This issue is divided into two imperative groups….

The brain and spinal cord characterize the peripheral Nervous System (PNS) and the Central Nervous System (CNS). PNS has a method of regeneration to the injured neurons followed by the quick release of white blood cells to fight infection. Schwann cells release neurotrophic factors, which enhance the regrowth of PNS Regrowth Neurons in several ways. The Schwann cells prevent too much cytotoxicity, which is generally part of the healing process but elicits too much inflammation for regeneration to proceed normally.

Schwann cells also set up tubes alongside the damaged neuron. These tubes are even connected to the injured degraded PNS neuron, and the pipe releases a host of healing biochemicals to stop neural degradation and provide healing repair to the affected injured neuron. A host of outside interventions can make this process go faster. However, I will save them for Regeneration of the brain and spinal cord, which, please remember, is still thought in many universities, even taught to this day, that CNS Regrowth Neurons cannot regenerate!

Regeneration and Repair of the Central Nervous System (Brain and Spinal Cord. Two types of cells are meant to serve and protect CNS Regrowth Neurons from injury. They are called Astrocytes and Glial cells. It may be hard to believe, but there are much more astrocytes in the brain than there are brain Neurons, and some 15 to 18 billion brain Regrowth Neurons. Normally, after an injury to brain neurons, astrocytes support Regrowth Neurons by providing antioxidant protection.

 The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

 While the Astrocytes bring in many antioxidants to prevent free radical oxidative toxic damage to the brain Regrowth Neurons, they also over-react and allow for too much inflammation and cytotoxins from white blood cell production of Interleukin-2 and 6. This is called the up-regulation of immune cell activity. It can destroy brain neurons faster than the initial injury to a brain or spinal neurons.

This process brings about even more inflammation to try and carry away all dead cells, including neurons and astrocytes, as well as white blood cell waste deposits. Unfortunately, the brain is limited in size, and too much inflammation causes intracranial pressure to the point where brain infarction is possible without making a surgical opening in the skull to release the stress….that is the bad and the ugly.

 How do we solve the above dire situation and bring about brain cell neuron regeneration?

In some cases, like bacterial or viral Encephalitis of the brain and spinal cord, many Regrowth Neurons can be killed or injured due to massive white blood cell proliferation. The white blood cells destroy the bacteria and virus that causes Encephalitis. Still, the situation is so dramatic that for the brain to survive the infection-killing neurons, the message which signals the white blood cells to enter the brain becomes so up-regulated that it cannot down-regulate to a normal response, thus further killing both infected Regrowth Neurons and the infected brain cells both. Many people die from this berserk super up-regulated immune response stuck on full throttle. It is a vicious, repetitive cycle.

We can stop this death cycle by giving the patient large intravenous doses of Gamma Globulin. Gamma Globulin consists of every type of antibody the human body can make. Scientists are not exactly certain how and why this has such a profound normalizing effect immunologically, but it does. It is called Immuno-modulation to the normal set point.  In both Stroke patients and infection-based Encephalitis of the brain, Immuno-Modulation to a normal set point is a must for neuron cell death to stop and for regeneration to begin.

Certain biochemical factors play a vital role in decreasing astrocytes! Cyclin Kinase decreases astrocyte proliferation, increasing neuron function and recovery. Caffeic acid, alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, and cilostazol are all highly beneficial. They are considered essential to an improved condition by reducing astrocyte production. This treatment shows a decrease in neuron injury. The decline in astrocyte high production levels is associated with a more positive and improved outcome moving toward CNS neuron regeneration.

1984 I experienced a life/death illness called Herpetic Viral Encephalitis. Manhattan’s most elite doctors misdiagnosed it…virtually always fatal, I lived, and because the death rate is so nearly complete, I spent three years in bed and several more in a wheelchair. There was no internet, no smartphones, just a nearly destroyed brain with pain so blinding it felt like two ice picks were being run through both eyes… and trying to escape by pushing through the back of my skull. Luckily for me, the feelers I sent out daily… resulted in a call from Nobel Prize-winning doctor and scientist Dr. Rita Levi Montalcini, who won the Nobel Prize for discovering Embryonic Fetal Nerve Growth Factor in 1986. I was the first human to get shots of the Fetal Nerve Growth Factor in 1988 to grow back and regenerate my damaged brain Regrowth Neurons. Then this magnificent woman became my mentor. I still live speaking to her shadow every day as she passed over at the age of almost 104.

Rita Levi-Montalcini’s discovery of a protein called ‘fetal nerve growth factor,’

which fosters the growth of nerve fibers and plays a role in the brain and the immune system; it is one of the most important steps taken so far toward understanding how the very complex system of nerves is laid down and linked to the tissues in a developing embryo. Her account of the adventures leading to this discovery, for which she won a Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1986, has a special contemporary interest.

We now know her discovery is how the brain grows all of its Regrowth Neurons when one is an embryo inside one’s mother’s womb until birth and sustains, protects, and regenerates brain Regrowth Neurons if one is fortunate to be born with a large amount of FNGF.  Thank goodness she could scale it up through a deal with a large cutting-edge biotechnology lab in Montreal. They are the ONLY Lab in the world that makes Dr. Rita’s original formulations.

We at AAI are incredibly fortunate to have access to her formulations at all times.

We combined her fetal nerve growth factors with very youthful blood levels of HGH (human growth hormone) that would be normal for the average healthy 16-year-old. Eighteen months later, I was completely better in every way, brain regeneration-wise and in every other health manner. The addition of HGH was my inspiration as it has been known for many decades that it is HGH that mobilizes all of the fetal tissue growth factors, such as cardiac tissue growth factor…to do protein synthesis and thus the regeneration of the heart AND all other tissues contained within the human body.

Without youthful blood levels of HGH (say blood levels normal for a healthy 26-year-old to 30-year-old) and credible levels of fetal nerve growth factor, regrowth of Neurons is unlikely in the extreme, BUT with these safe and effective blood levels of both regrowth of every type of Neuron is probably in, and that brings amazing hope.

The only Regrowth we cannot master yet is CNS spinal cord cut in half…but the army medical scientists are getting very close. Imagine how old we would all look if we did not have adequate cell levels of epithelial (skin tissue growth factor) to regenerate our SKIN?

So, just like hormones, as we age, we lose our tissue growth factors…and if they cannot be replaced to the optimal level from exogenous sources, we will all be subject to the ravages of age-related illness. Gratefully, here at AAI, we have all critical tissue growth factors available to you, our beloved family of clients.
