The Pharmacology of Regenerative Medicine

The pharmacology of regenerative medicine.

Regenerative medicine is a rapidly evolving multidisciplinary, translational research enterprise whose explicit purpose is to advance technologies for the repair and replacement of damaged cells, tissues, and organs. Scientific progress in the field has been steady and expectations for its robust clinical application continue to rise. The major thesis of this review is that the pharmacological ...

Introduction to Regenerative Pharmacology: A Short Primer on the Role of Pharmacological Sciences in Regenerative Medicine

Regenerative pharmacology in urology

Regenerative pharmacology has been defined as “the application of pharmacological sciences to accelerate, optimize, and characterize (either in vitro or in vivo) the development, maturation, and function of bioengineered and regenerating tissues” [1,2]. It is a general term and can be thought of as the utilization of a particular growth factor, chemokine, or antibody against disease-relevant fa...

Nanosized biomaterials for regenerative medicine

This review discusses recent developments in the field of nanosized biomaterials and their use in tissue regeneration approaches. The aim is to provide an overview of the research focused on nanoparticle-based strategies to stimulate regeneration. In particular, nanoparticles improve the regenerative capabilities of biomaterials offering ways to control surface and mechanical properties. Moreov...
