FDA Reports On Houston Stem-Cell Lab Where Rick Perry Received Experimental Procedure

In July of last year at a Texas stem cell clinic Governor Rick Perry received experimental stem cell surgery to alleviate a back problem. In the procedure isolated stem cells from fat were removed, cultured in a lab and re-injected back into Perry. Such stem cell treatments have not been approved by the FDA.  In April Celltex Therapeutics Corp., the Texas stem cell lab where the cells were stored and grown was inspected by the FDA. Documents from the FDA audit were obtained by the Houston Chronicle. Portions of those documents are below, to read the inclusive article published online at the Huston Chronicle click here.
