Scientists at The University of Nottingham have developed a
new substance which could simplify the manufacture of cell therapy in the
pioneering world of regenerative medicine.
Cell therapy is an exciting and rapidly developing area of
medicine in which stem cells have the potential to repair human tissue and maintain
organ function in chronic disease and age-related illnesses. But a major
problem with translating current successful research into actual products and
treatments is how to mass-produce such a complex living material.
