This dense study conducted by Prof. Dr. Mike K.S. Chan and Prof. Dr. Michelle B.F. Wong, with the support of a professional team of researchers, highlights how important is to delve deeper into the study of the thymus gland which plays a crucial role in immune system health. As we read in the forewords the topics presented are the results of a collaboration between experts coming from various fields such as immunology, gerontology, regenerative medicine, and clinical practice. This comprehensive book can strengthen the communication and collaboration among these disciplines, fostering a more holistic approach to addressing age-related health challenges. Bioregenerative medicine in general, and Thymic regeneration therapies are an important part of the daily medical practice. THYMUS THERAPY represents a pivotal study and another scientific milestone that puts once again Prof. Chan and his Team at the forefront worldwide. Prof. Dato Sri Dr. Mike K.S. Chan, is a pioneer of Cellular, Organo and Cell Membrane Therapies in Europe and Asia since the early 1980’s. He founded one of the world’s largest research groups of Bio-Molecular Medicine based in Switzerland and Germany with a global presence in almost eighty countries. He has conducted more than 1,000 lectures, seminars, and symposiums worldwide in the fields of antiaging, cell regeneration, bio-regenerative medicine, and stemcell therapies. Author & co-author of numerous books and articles in the fields of cell therapy, immunology, bio-regenerative sciences, nutrition, and innovator of cellular based nutraceuticals & cosmeceuticals, Prof. Mike Chan is also the founder of European Wellness Biomedical Group—an International chain of research and treatment facilities (European Wellness Centers & Retreats) involved in anti-aging, longevity and education (European Wellness Academy). He chairs and also sits on board on numerous prominent antiaging and cell therapy associations of the world. Prof. Dato Sri Dr. Michelle Wong Bi Fah, ND, PhD is a scientist, researcher and educator actively involved in research and development (R&D) work on stem cells focusing on Fetal Precursor Stem-Cell Therapy. She is the Co-Founder/Senior Technical Advisor and Researcher in FCTI Inc., specialising in Stem cell Research and Bio-Regenerative Medicine for more than three decades. A prominent speaker, Michelle Wong presents at educational programs and global conferences on stem cells, cell therapy and biological medicine for physicians and healthcare practitioners worldwide.

The thymus is a gland that over the last two centuries has generated great awareness not only from the anatomical perspective but also for the physiological and pat- logical roles it plays in many disease processes. Prior to the early studies on its th anatomy and physiology in the 18 century, the thymus was believed to perform - usual and curious functions such as purification of the nervous system, providing a protective cushion for the vasculature of the superior mediastinum, fetal nouri- ment, or more spiritual roles such as being the seat of the soul, among others. D- th ing the 19 century important anatomical/physiological studies took place focusing on the role of the thymus in pathological conditions. However, it was not until the th middle of the 19 century that a more comprehensive analysis of the role of the thymic gland and its role in pathogenesis began to emerge. Currently, while the knowledge gained on the diverse aspects of the thymic gland has furthered our understanding of its role in a gamut of processes, more knowledge is still being sought, and by no means is a full understanding of the gland’s physi- ogy and pathology complete. Different aspects, including its purported endocrine function, its association with other autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and lupus erythematosus, among others, are under evaluation and research.

Until the middle of the present century, the morphology and function of the thymus were primarily of interest to those working in the fields of pathologic anatomy, endo crinology, and pediatrics. However, during recent decades careful and refined histo logic studies of the organ have expanded our knowledge. It now seems certain that the thymus plays a central role in the immune system, and some of the substances pro duced by this organ are considered together under the collective term of "thymic hor mones". In clinical medicine (in particular endocrinology and pediatrics, as well as surgery and radiologic oncology), the startling advances that have taken place in radiologic diagnostics with the advent of new imaging procedures such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging have provided fresh impetus in the search for effec tive treatments for hyperplasia, tumors, and tumor-like changes of the thymus. Normal variants of the thymus, which lies concealed within the anterior superior mediastinum, have been recorded, and pathologic changes such as primary or secondary tumors can now be analyzed and correctly diagnosed.
