Current Bioengineering Methods for Whole Kidney Regeneration

Kidney regeneration is likely to provide an inexhaustible source of tissues and organs for immunosuppression-free transplantation. It is currently garnering considerable attention and might replace kidney dialysis as the ultimate therapeutic strategy for renal failure. However, anatomical complications make kidney regeneration difficult. Here, we review recent advances in the field of kidney re...

Liver Regeneration and Bioengineering – The Emergence of Whole Organ Scaffolds

Every year an estimated two million people die of advanced liver disease. The World Health Organization estimates that over six hundred and fifty million people worldwide are affected by some form of liver disease, including thirty million Americans. On a worldwide base, the bleak cenario of one to two million deaths are accounted to liver related diseases annually. From all the countries, Chin...
