While the search for the “fountain of youth” has long been considered merely a fantasy, advances in regenerative medicine and biogerontology in the twenty-first century suggest that “the aspiration to modify the biological processes of... more
Degeneration of the intervertebral disc (IVD) and disc herniation are two causes of low back pain. The aetiology of these disorders is unknown, but tissue weakening, which primarily occurs due to inherited genetic factors, ageing,... more
Developing cartilage constructs with injectability, appropriate matrix composition, and persistent cartilaginous phenotype remains an enduring challenge in cartilage repair. Fourteen patients with minor contour deformity were treated with... more
Conference Abstract: Osteoarthritis is a major cause of disability during aging. By the age of 60, close to 100% of the population will have histologic changes of degeneration in their knee cartilage (Loeser, 2000). Because of its avas-... more

Cell-based therapies have the potential to revolutionize current treatments for diseases with high prevalence and related economic and social burden. Unfortunately, clinical trials have made only modest improvements in restoring normal... more
In March 2015, a meeting was held in London, United Kingdom, to address the progress in targeting the unmet need for dry eye disease (DED) treatment. The meeting, which launched the i2 = initiating innovation series, was sponsored by the... more
Adipose tissue is accessible with minimally invasive procedures, is abundant, and is replenishable. It consists of a heterogeneous cell population including preadipocytes, mature adipocytes, fibroblasts, vascular smooth muscle cells,... more
Tissue engineering is a newly emerging biomedical technology, which aids and increases the repair and regeneration of deficient and injured tissues. It employs the principles from the fields of materials science, cell biology,... more
The treatment of full thickness skin loss, which can be extensive in the case of large burns, continues to represent a challenging clinical entity. This is due to an on-going inability to produce a suitable tissue engineered substrate... more
While the search for the “fountain of youth” has long been considered merely a fantasy, advances in regenerative medicine and biogerontology in the twenty-first century suggest that “the aspiration to modify the biological processes of... more
Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are a promising source of cells for numerous and varied regenerative medicine applications. Their natural function in the production of odontoblasts to create reparative dentin support applications in... more
Oil-free culture system was implemented to generate parthenogenetic embryonic stem cell (PESC) lines in mice. The oocytes at metaphase II stage were activated and the parthenogenetic embryos were cultured in two different culture systems:... more

Extracellular vesicles (EVs), such as microvesicles and exosomes, are membranous structures containing bioactive material released by several cells types, including mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs). Increasing lines of evidences... more
