The inability of the human body to be able significantly to self
repair injured organs and tissues results in a considerable medical
and social problem. During the last few years there has been
incredible progress, and the achievements in experimental
strategies for tissue regeneration, particularly in cell
transplantation and stem cell research, have led to potential
treatment options for many otherwise fatal conditions. These
innovations hold promise for treating or preventing end-stage organ
failure; cell therapy and tissue engineering of viable grafts with
the potential to grow and remodel could provide prospective new
solutions to the serious problems of organ donor shortage.
Regenerative medicine a" stem cell and gene-based therapy a"
offers a new approach for restoring function of damaged organs and
tissues. Several books have been published on particular aspects of
organ and/or tissue replacement but none cover the major new
aspects and field of regenerative medicine. This title is therefore
a timely addition to the literature. It brings together the major
approaches to regenerative medicine in one text, which ensures that
techniques learnt in one discipline are disseminated across other
areas of medicine, allowing practitioners to gain knowledge not
only of how regenerative medicine applies to their discipline
directly but also how it could benefit their patients in the years
to come.
