13^th Tissue Repair and Regeneration Congress

Anti Aging, Rejuvenation & Replacement

Stem cells are feasible to design and test interventions to slow aging and improve health and longevity. It is believed that stem cell failure contributes to a decline in health during aging; so the development of effective methods to induce and differentiate pluripotent stem cells via cell replacement therapy provides an exciting avenue for the treatment of degenerative age-related diseases. It is believed that the regenerative potential of these cells is due to their high differentiation and proliferation capabilities, paracrine activity and immune privilege. Therefore, the stem cells can be used for cell replacement therapy as a therapeutic intervention aimed at mitigating the effects of aging.
