Preclinical studies discovered a cell-free bioactive material developed at Mayo Clinic triggered healing of one of the most common shoulder injuries. This Mayo Clinic research, published in Biomaterials, documented that purified exosome product — also known as PEP — promoted repair of rotator cuff injuries faster and more effectively than surgery alone. The rotator cuff […]

Demystifying healing potential of stem cells
Mayo Clinic research has discovered proteins secreted by human stem cells that act as a “magic potion” to drive healing after a heart attack. The research uncovered that these cell-released regenerative particles harbor a pattern of functions mirrored in repair of the diseased heart, linking stem cell-transmitted information to the beneficial response of the recipient […]

Advancing regenerative medicine through a shared vocabulary
Regenerative medicine is defining an entirely new area of health care, spawning innovative advances across research, education and clinical practice. Like any emerging field, regenerative medicine is generating a plethora of new terms to learn. Mayo Clinic, a global leader in advancing this new field of medicine, contributed in establishing a standardized regenerative medicine lexicon. […]

Regenerative approaches to improving corneal transplantation
Mayo Clinic is refining corneal transplantation surgery nearly a century after it first pioneered this groundbreaking procedure to restore vision. Corneal transplants, which were among the first successful organ transplants, are considered one of the earliest forms of regenerative medicine. Mayo Clinic’s Center for Regenerative Medicine is a catalyst for advancing regenerative procedures like corneal […]

Pioneering living donor cartilage transplants
Mayo Clinic is poised to establish what is believed to be the first-ever living cartilage donor bank to provide a new regenerative option for healing common knee injuries. That donor bank will lay the foundation for living donor musculoskeletal tissue transplants — a first at Mayo Clinic and possibly in the world — to help […]
