Repair and Regeneration of Tissue and Organ Injury
Published 08 November, 2024
Introduction
Life may cause minor repairable damage, and many tissues and organs exhibit the healing and regeneration abilities required under normal physiological and pathological conditions. However, our innate regenerative ability is limited, and many serious injuries cannot be repaired or regenerated. They can leave scars on the body, causing loss of function and even endangering survival. The process of tissue and organ regeneration and repair is complex, with many aspects still not fully understood. Research in this area explores the mechanisms of repair and regeneration at the molecular, cellular, tissue and organ levels, with a focus on therapeutic applications for repairing different tissues and organs.
This special issue calls for Critical comments, Reviews, Perspectives, and Research Articles to be published, providing strategies for repairing and regenerating tissue and organ injuries and advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms. This thematic series aims to capture the latest breakthroughs and future directions in the field. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
- Biomaterial for tissue and organ injuries and regeneration;
- Mechanism of Repair and regeneration of tissue and organ injuries;
- Strategies and methods for promoting regeneration and repairing of tissue and organ injury;
- Stem cells in injury repair and regeneration of tissue and organ;
- Tissue engineering in the repair and regeneration of tissue and organ injury;
- Aging and regeneration of tissue and organ injuries.
