Title: Musculoskeletal tissue science and  tissue engineering

Abstract:

With the development of economy and healthcare, human life expectancy has been increasing at a rapid rate. In the context of aging, our body becomes fragile. Musculoskeletal system occupies 60-70% of the body weight and is often affected by  sports injuries, leading to a heavy medical cost for the clinical tissue repair. The therapeutics for musculoskeletal diseases are at three levels: removal, replacement and regeneration. Currently, however, the treatment in clinics remains to be trapped at the removal and replacement level. For example, it is still difficult to regenerate soft tissues like cartilage and tendon after decades of research. This talk aims to overview our efforts on cartilage and tendon regeneration by sharing the story and philosophy of our research during the last 15 years when I gradually change my role from an orthopedic surgeon to a bioengineer. With the new techniques, we can go to the upstream, and uncover some new knowledge. With the increasing new understanding, we realize that the blocking of pathogenesis should be firstly required for clinical tissue regeneration before the promotion of regeneration, which is different from acute injury treatment. We attempt to figure out the framework of developing new therapeutics, and provide new insights into tissue biology, tissue pathology and tissue regeneration. We wish to formulate the paradigm of “ the blocking of disease pathogenesis and the promotion of a rapid regeneration” in the future sports medicine.
