Regenerative medicine is the process of replacing or regenerating human cells, tissues, and organs to restore or establish normal function. Regenerative medicine treatments have the potential to cure chronic diseases and conditions that currently cannot be cured such as: spinal cord injury, Type 1 diabetes mellitus, cartilage damage in the knee joints, and coronary artery disease.
There are two main types of Regenerative Medicine: regenerative therapy and regenerative stem cell therapy. Regenerative therapy replaces damaged tissue with new functional tissue by transplanting in vitro cultured cells or by delivering genes in order for proper healing to occur at a cellular level. Regeneration from stem cell therapy takes place by injecting stem cells into the area which then induce regeneration through paracrine effects. Regenerative medicine has the potential to transform healthcare by curing chronic diseases, preventing amputations or organ transplants, and even restoring or improving damaged organs.
Regenerative Medicine restores or establishes normal function by replacing/regenerating human cells, tissues, and/or organ.
Regenerative Therapy replaces damaged tissue with new functional tissue by transplanting in vitro cultured cells – Regeneration from Stem Cell Therapy occurs by injecting stem cells into the area which then induce regeneration through paracrine effects (likewise) – Regenerative Medicine has the potential to transform healthcare by curing chronic diseases, preventing amputations or organ transplants, and restoring or improving damaged/diseased organs – Regenerative Medicine has the ability to restore or establish normal function by replacing/regenerating human cells, tissues, and/or organs.
