"Is Kobe's knee therapy really worth it? Last year I blogged on Regenokine, a simple conditioned serum therapy for arthritis. It"s also is called Orthokine in Germany or IRAP by many vets I know. Basically, it's similar to Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy where the patient's red blood cells are taken and separated from the serum (see above). However, unlike PRP, where the fraction of the blood containing serum and platelets is concentrated and immediately re-injected, the Orthokine process cultures the serum with etched glass beads so that white blood cells produce a natural anti-inflammatory called IRAP. This therapy has been all over the news lately as several big name athletes traveled to Germany to get the therapy (Kobe Bryant)".
I recently learned that the clinics using Orthokine here in the US (where this would be classified as a drug requiring a drug approval due to our crazy over-regulation in this space) are using Veterinary kits designed for dogs, cats, and horses on human patients! This therapy has been renamed "Regenokine".
