- W2034830103 abstract "to damaged tissues and organs. In other words, regenerative medicine is the ‘process of replacing or regenerating human cells, tissues or organs to restore or establish normal function’ [4, 5] . It includes a group of biomedical approaches to clinical therapies that may involve the use of stem cells. Examples include: the injection of stem cells or progenitor cells (cell therapies), the induction of regeneration by biologically active molecules administered alone or as products of injected cells (immunomodulation therapy), and transplantation of in vitro grown organs and tissues (tissue engineering) [6, 7] . Despite substantial developments in our knowledge and understanding of stem cell biology and regenerative medicine, the field is in its infancy. As always, the translation of new concepts to better treatments is challenging and thus far major therapeutic breakthroughs have been rare. Alternative treatment strategies are urgently needed due to donor organ shortage that costs many lives every year and results in lifelong immunosuppression [8, 9] . Pulmonary and critical care medicine has lagged behind other fields, like hematology and cardiology, including stem cells and regenerative medicine. [7] . However, cellbased regenerative therapies for lung diseases offer great promise, with preclinical studies suggesting that this approach is feasible and may provide a new therapeutic approach [10–15] . The concept of tissue regeneration is not new and can be traced back to Greek mythology. Prometheus stole fire from the Olympian gods for human use in order to advance civilization. Zeus sentenced him to eternal torment for his disobedience. The immortal Prometheus was bound to a rock where each day an eagle was sent to feed on his liver, only to have it grow back to be eaten again the next day (... a long-winged eagle, which used to eat his immortal liver; but by night the liver grew as much again everyway as the long-winged bird devoured in the whole day) [1] . Improved health care and increased life expectancy have resulted in a dramatic increase in the prevalence of diseases associated with aging in developed countries. Many of these diseases arise from the loss or dysfunction of specific cell types, with fibrosis as a common feature. The US government estimates that 45% of deaths in the USA can be attributed to fibrotic disorders [2] . Thus, there is a desperate need for new and innovative therapies for a number of chronic lung diseases, including COPD, interstitial lung diseases (especially idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis), cystic fibrosis, and pulmonary hypertension [3] . Regenerative medicine offers a transformational approach to therapy pairing the power of stem cells and the body’s own regenerative capabilities to restore function Published online: November 27, 2012" @default.
