Regenerative Medicine in China

Abstract

Regenerative medicine in the modern sense mainly refers to the use of the principles and methods of life sciences, materials science, computer science, and engineering, to research and develop regenerative treatment technologies and products for replacing, repairing, improving, or regenerating various tissues and organs of the human body and for tissue and organ defects or dysfunction caused by diseases, trauma, aging, or genetic factors. The basic scientific problem of tissue repair and regeneration is actually the proliferation, differentiation, and orderly regulation of tissue repair cells [1]. The scope of regenerative medicine is not simply biology or medicine, but covers almost all areas of natural sciences and social sciences. It is a discipline that studies the mechanism of tissue and organ defects, and how to promote physiological repair for structural reconstruction and functional optimization of tissue and organ regeneration [2].
