AbstractWith few curative treatments for kidney diseases, increasing attention has been paid to regenerative medicine as a new therapeutic option. Recent progress in kidney regeneration using human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) is noteworthy. Based on the knowledge of kidney development, the directed differentiation of hiPSCs into two embryonic kidney progenitors, nephron progenitor cells (NPCs) and ureteric bud (UB), has been established, enabling the generation of nephron and collecting duct organoids. Furthermore, human kidney tissues can be generated from these hiPSC-derived progenitors, in which NPC-derived glomeruli and renal tubules and UB-derived collecting ducts are interconnected. The induced kidney tissues are further vascularized when transplanted into immunodeficient mice. In addition to the kidney reconstruction for use in transplantation, it has been demonstrated that cell therapy using hiPSC-derived NPCs ameliorates acute kidney injury (AKI) in mice. Disease modeling and drug discovery research using disease-specific hiPSCs has also been vigorously conducted for intractable kidney disorders, such as autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). In an attempt to address the complications associated with kidney diseases, hiPSC-derived erythropoietin (EPO)-producing cells were successfully generated to discover drugs and develop cell therapy for renal anemia. This review summarizes the current status and future perspectives of developmental biology of kidney and iPSC technology-based regenerative medicine for kidney diseases.

Abstract Purpose of Review To describe experimental liver injury models used in regenerative medicine, cell therapy strategies to repopulate damaged livers and the efficacy of liver bioengineering. Recent Findings Several animal models have been developed to study different liver conditions. Multiple strategies and modified protocols of cell delivery have been also reported. Furthermore, using bioengineered liver scaffolds has shown promising results that could help in generating a highly functional cell delivery system and/or a whole transplantable liver. Summary To optimize the most effective strategies for liver cell therapy, further studies are required to compare among the performed strategies in the literature and/or innovate a novel modifying technique to overcome the potential limitations. Coating of cells with polymers, decellularized scaffolds, or microbeads could be the most appropriate solution to improve cellular efficacy. Besides, overcoming the problems of liver bioengineering may offer a radical treatment for end-stage liver diseases.

Standardized Treatment

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious health concern, yet there is a lack of standardized treatment to combat its long-lasting effects. The objective of the present study was to provide an overview of the limitation of conventional stem cell therapy in the treatment of TBI and to discuss the application of novel acellular therapies and their advanced strategies to enhance the efficacy of stem cells derived therapies in the light of published study data. Moreover, we also discussed the factor to optimize the therapeutic efficiency of stem cell-derived acellular therapy by overcoming the challenges for its clinical translation. Hence, we concluded that acellular therapy possesses the potential to bring a breakthrough in the field of regenerative medicine to treat TBI.
