Overview

Regenerative medicine is an interdisciplinary field that aims to restore the structure and function of cells, tissues, and organs lost to injury, disease, congenital defect, or aging, moving beyond symptomatic management toward biological repair and replacement. It integrates stem-cell biology, tissue engineering, biomaterials science, gene therapy, and developmental biology. Core strategies include cell-based therapies using pluripotent or adult stem cells, such as mesenchymal stem cells derived from bone marrow or umbilical cord that can be directed toward specific lineages; scaffold-guided tissue engineering, in which biomaterials including calcium orthophosphate and chitosan provide a degradable matrix supporting cell attachment, proliferation, and extracellular-matrix deposition; and advanced fabrication methods such as three-dimensional bioprinting and organ-on-a-chip systems that reconstruct tissue architecture and microenvironment. The articles assembled here reflect these directions, spanning stem-cell therapies and their ethical context, mesenchymal cells as a source of differentiated cells, bioprinting coupled with organ-on-a-chip biomimicry, bone-tissue-engineering scaffolds, enzymatic degradation of chitosan constructs, embryonic developmental control, and laryngeal tissue engineering with adipose-derived stem cells. Success depends on controlling cell differentiation, vascularization, immune compatibility, and scaffold degradation kinetics, positioning regenerative medicine as a route toward durable functional reconstruction rather than mere replacement of lost capacity.
