Top Journals In Regenerative Medicine

Regenerative medicine may be a branch of translational research in tissue engineering and biology which deals with the "process of replacing, engineering or regenerating human or animal cells, tissues or organs to revive or establish normal function.This field holds the promise of engineering damaged tissues and organs by stimulating the body's own repair mechanisms to functionally heal previously irreparable tissues or organs. Regenerative medicine also includes the likelihood of growing tissues and organs within the laboratory and implanting them when the body cannot heal itself. When the cell source for a regenerated organ springs from the patient's own tissue or cells,the challenge of transplant rejection via immunological mismatch is circumvented. This approach could alleviate the matter of the shortage of organs available for donation. Some of the biomedical approaches within the sector of regenerative medicine may involve the utilization of stem cells. Examples include the injection of stem cells or progenitor cells obtained through directed differentiation (cell therapies); the induction of regeneration by biologically active molecules administered alone or as a secretion by infused cells (immunomodulation therapy); and transplantation of in vitro grown organs and tissues. Haseltine when he coined the term during a conference on Lake Como, to explain interventions that restore to normal function that which is broken by disease, injured by trauma, or worn by time.
