Title: Retrodifferentiation
Post by: dlevy on September 17, 2007, 07:03:41 PM

Has anyone heard about retrodifferentiaition?  It is a claim by TriStar corp to reinduce hemopoeitic cells autologously into a person, after they have been washed ... as perhaps an alternate to both a bone marrow transplant and regular transfusions.  I was wondering if anyone has done this or heard about it, and the validity of TriStar's claims.  Thanks.

Hi David,

Do a search for retrodifferentiation in our search engine and you'll find several threads about it. It was just brought up again in the past week.

Hi Andy,

I didn't find anything in the search engine except one post.  Was there more?  And what are the posts called.  Thanks.

Check your spelling. Retrodifferentiation. (You had an extra "i" in your post). You'll find these threads and others.
