Key words:

[Stem cells]
'Stem cells' here in this book refer to the dynamic cells with the potency of proliferation and differentiation to form normal tissues or organs (or functional cells).  Those which can proliferate and differentiate but not form the normal tissues or organs (or functional cells) should not be classified as stem cells, like cancer cells; the same case is with the common cells with injure repair ability which also have the proliferation and differentiation function but form the scar tissues instead of normal.

Stem cells can also be classified according to the origins or functions as follows: those derived from embryonic cells are called embryonic stem cells; those existing in the body as the state of stem cells are called adult stem cells; those transformed from hystiocytes are called tissue (somatic) stem cells.  Based on the functions, stem cells can be categorized into several types: totipotent, pluripotent or monopotent stem cells, like hemopoietic stem cells (HSC) with only the single function of hemopoiesis.   

In a word, any cell called as a normal stem cell should share the common character of proliferation and differentiation to form normal tissues or organs (or functional cells).  It is a serious concept mistake to term cells without the ability to form normal tissues or organs (or functional cells) as stem cells. For example, none of the virus assisted gene reprogrammed iPS cells has developed into the normal stem cell, not even mentioning the formed normal tissues or organs, thus the claim of iPS cells as 'induced stem cells' was a severe concept mistake.  Instead, the inventor should name the iPS cells according to the actual cell character not by borrowing the existing term.


[Potential Regenerative Cells (PRCs)]
Referring to the type of histiocytes in human body that have the potential to proliferate and differentiate and subsequently develop into tissues or organs.  Such cells share the similarity in the characteristic life circle with other common histiocytes which have no the above potential, but they are different from the common histiocytes in that can be induced into stem cells (indicating the concept of secondary life regenerative cells and long-term dormant cells). 

[The induction of somatic cells into stem cells]
Referring to the process by which somatic cells without the change of life properties are directly induced into stem cells that have the potential to proliferate and differentiate and subsequently develop into normal tissues or organs (or functional cells) with natural ingredients composed nutrients (or ingredients not changing the structure and characters of the cells). 

[In situ regenerative restoration of tissues and organs]
Referring to a technical result that PRCs are induced into stem cells by regenerative nutrients combined with various techniques, and subsequently new tissues or organs are regenerated in situ to replace those losing structure and functions, so that they are completely integrated with the remaining original tissues or organs in structure and function.   

[Human body regenerative restoration science]
It is an innovative application system of life science on the regenerating life activity and principle of PRCs induction into stem cells, on the life activity and principle of the induced stem cells regenerative restoring tissues or organs in situ, and on the living requirements and essential life nutrients for cell regeneration so that to realizes the in situ regenerative restoration of organs with acquired defect, premature aging, mutation, premature apoptosis or severe organ tissue disorders by utilizing the regenerative potential and regenerative nutrients. 

Potential regenerative cells (PRCs) are invigorated and cultured with regenerative nutrients and newly regenerated cells replenish the acquired cells defect in organs or tissues and replace cells with premature aging, mutation, premature apoptosis or severe organ tissue disorders in the organ tissues, realizing the effective medical treatment for diseases, disease prevention, suspension and restoration of premature aging, discontinuation or prevention of cellular mutation as well as health and longevity.

By that, the final goal can be achieved of the improved quality of human lives, the extended young state of the life circle, improved life level and reformed source energy for human life.
