Adult stem cells, especially isolated from bone marrow, have been extensively investigated in recent years. Studies focus on their multiple plasticity of trans differentiating into various cell lineages and on their potential in cellular therapy in regenerative medicine. In many cases, there is the need for tissue engineering manipulation. Among the different approaches of stem cells tissue engineering, micro encapsulation can immobilize stem cells to provide a favorable micro environment for stem cells survival and functioning
How we can encapsulate stem cells effectively for liver regeneration? Which is the best method for this?
Your question is too vague... you have to let us know why you'd want to encapsulate MSCs - I guess from your keywords you speak about MSCs.
Do you want the MSCs to home in the liver or do you want to transplant cells to take over the liver function whilst the patient's own liver regenerate?
