Both innate and adaptive immune responses participated in tissue repair, such as alternatively activated macrophage, type2 T helper cells, regulatory T cells etc. Previously, immune responses to biomaterials were related to rejection, however, with the recognition that the subsets of immune cells are important mediators of regeneration, it\u0026rsquo;s a promising strategy to utilize the immune response to biomaterials targeting immune-mediated tissue regeneration. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent adult stem cells that providing promising repair\/regenerative modalities in many diseases through their secretomes. Especially, MSCs exhibited the properties of anti-inflammation through the paracrine products and cell-cell contact with the immune cells. Here, we would like to develop a scaffold with large pores for immune cells engraftment in vivo. The scaffolds would be modified with MSC membrane\/exosomes to further educate scaffold-recruited immune cells towards regenerative state. We hypothesize that this MSC exosome\/membrane coated bio-scaffolds would generate a pro-regenerative micro-environment by tuning the response of the immune cells and thus benefit the process of regeneration.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Mesenchymal stem cell membrane\/exosome coated bioscaffolds for immune-mediated regeneration."}],"uid":"27707","created_gmt":"2017-03-15 18:25:42","changed_gmt":"2017-03-15 18:25:42","author":"Tatianna Richardson","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2017-03-20T10:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2017-03-20T12:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2017-03-20T12:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2017-03-20 14:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2017-03-20 16:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2017-03-20 16:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"221981","name":"Graduate Studies"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"102851","name":"Phd proposal"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
