VIDEO - *Liver Growing Body Parts *Regenerative medicine

July 2010

Advances in regenerative medicine means it's possible for damaged body parts to be regrown from human cells, and 60 Minutes featured the growing area of study.The Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicine is working on this with all kinds of organs and parts of the body and hopes to fight the fact people are dying while on the transplant wait list.

Dr. Atala of the Wake Forest Institute told CBS the goal is to "provide replacement tissues and organs that can be used to help [such patients] survive."Atala says some body parts are easier to recreate than others, such as the ear, though the hope is eventually all body parts can be regenerated.So far, human bladders have already been replicated based on cells and replaced into the body. Each replication takes approximately 6 to 8 weeks.

Regenerating body parts lost by soldiers who have been injured in war is the topic of our story from McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh. “Powder Regenerates New Muscle†covers the encouraging results of an experimental procedure using a biologic compound made from harvested pig bladder. Watch to see how the experimental powder, when placed near a wound, actually signals the human body to begin generating new cells and has already been effective for regenerating the human esophagus, in addition to muscle regeneration.
