The mitochondrion produce a substance called adenosine triphosphate. It is also known as ATP. It is believed to be our source of energy. ATP's main purpose is to transport chemical energy within cells for metabolism[2]. Metabolism is the sum of the physical and chemical changes that take place in living organisms.
Stem cell harvest. Stem cells used to be harvested from the bone marrow. That has now largely been abandoned in favour of harveting directly from the peripheral blood.
This is known as a stem cell transplant. These infused stem cells can grow in the patientâs body and replace the patientâs own stem cells that were destroyed by the chemo-radiation therapy, resulting in a new line of white blood cells, red blood cells, or platelets that the patient will need to survive.he stem cells required for a stem cell transplant were historically collected from the bone marrow (spongy material inside large bones) or the circulating blood of patients or donors. Some patients, however, are unable to produce enough stem cells for a transplant or cannot find an appropriate donor.
