Frozen Glandular Extract to Support Healthy Liver
and Immune Functions
With Highly Concentrated 125X Mesenchyme Extract

XtraCell? Zepatix, provided by Douglas Laboratories?, is an innovative and proprietary frozen liquid extract consisting of selected proteins, peptides and other growth factors and signaling molecules obtained from porcine thymus, liver and mesenchyme tissues to support healthy hepatic function.

Functions
XtraCell Zepatix is manufactured and purified via a patented low temperature process that involves homogenization, fractionation, and ultrafiltration of porcine thymus, liver and mesenchyme tissues. The molecules present in this product are selected based on their size and molecular weight (less than 50,000 daltons), and are isolated in their native state. Once the molecules are selected, the liquid is aseptically bottled and flash-frozen without preservatives to ensure optimal potency, freshness and bioavailability.

This process can be applied to different starting materials, allowing for the creation of liquid extracts that are targeted for specific applications. The extract created from the three tissues used in XtraCell Zepatix is highly bioavailable and of the highest quality available.

Liver
As the body?s main detoxification organ, the liver is responsible for removing all potentially detrimental molecules such as alcohol, drugs and air pollutants from the blood stream. The liver also plays important roles in the synthesis of bile, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, and production of certain coagulation factors, among its other roles. What is not as well known is that the liver also plays a role in maintaining healthy immune function, as Kupffer cells found within the liver have the ability to modulate immune function. The signaling factors present in XtraCell Zepatix can help to support the regenerative and immune functions of the liver.

Thymus
The thymus is key for the maturation and maintenance of the immune system. It functions by releasing certain thymic factors that affect its own regulation as well as the functions of other cells throughout the body. These thymic factors (including but not limited to thymosins, thymopoietin, thymic factor X, and serum thymic factor) tend to reach their peak at puberty and decline with age. These peptides are important for the healthy maturation and activation of T lymphocytes, which can in turn activate B-lymphocytes and macrophages and contribute to a healthy immune system.* Supplementing with extracts that provide thymic factors may help maintaining normal immune function. As shown in figure 1, XtraCell Thymus can support healthy immune cell activity.

Mesenchyme
Mesenchyme is composed of pluripotent cells, or cells that are undifferentiated and have the ability to evolve into almost any type of cell. The mesenchyme extract is obtained from embryonic fetal porcine tissue from which cellular growth factors and other signaling molecules are extracted. Mesenchyme extract has been shown to increase cellular metabolism and may be important for maintaining homeostasis.

Indications
XtraCell Zepatix may be a useful dietary supplement for those who wish to support healthy liver and immune functions.
