BIOENGINEERING AND
REGENERATIVE MEDICINE LABORATORY
REGENERATIVE MEDICINE LABORATORY
The Laboratory of Bioengineering and Regenerative Medicine focuses its efforts on studying age-related dementia (such as Alzheimer’s disease), including molecular mechanisms, epidemiology, genetics, environmental and lifestyle risk factors, search for new diagnostic biomarkers and prophylactics, and treatment strategies. The laboratory conducts investigations of the molecular mechanisms of aging in mesenchymal stem cells to deepen understanding of the aging process of the body. Additionally, the laboratory is developing a method for rejuvenating mesenchymal stem cells isolated from elderly donors, as well as developing and testing new biomaterials for tissue regeneration. The laboratory also conducts research on protein engineering, protein-polymer bioconjugates, and targeted delivery of drugs
| MAIN RESEARCH AREAS Infrastructure for the implementation of cell-based therapy in the clinical practice has been established The protocols of primary human neuronal cells extraction and culture have been implemented in research for the first time in KZ The method of stem cells rejuvenation has been developed 3-D in-vivo imaging of laboratory animals has been implemented in research for the first time in KZ A new method for managing of osteoporotic bone fractures has been developed and tested pre-clinically Biologically active wound dressing for wound and burn treatment has been developed and tested pre-clinically Comprehensive research on Alzheimer’s disease has been initiated in KZ for the first time Thermosensitive hydrogel for psoriasis vulgaris treatment has been developed and being tested |
