CELL BIOLOGY AND CELL PHYSIOLOGY. UMA BIO217

Description

A research group that is part of the University of Malaga, as well as the Network of Cell Therapy. (TerCel) and the CIBER of Bioengineering, Biometerials and Nanomedicine (Ciber-bbn) of the Carlos III Health Institute. It specialises in the study of skeletal regeneration in animal models and in therapeutic osteogenesis, searching for its applications within the area of Regenerative Medicine of skeleton tissue. The group carries out selection, expansion and condo-osteogenic differentiation methods of mesenchimatic stem cells, in addition to making new osteoconductor materials. The study of secretome of MSC for therapeutic purposes in human and veternary medicine are also present. They also study neuregenerative mechanisms stem cells mediated using Hydrocephalus as a model
