Abstract
New ideas and experimental models for tissue and organ regeneration are urgently needed. There are several exciting challenges in the field of organogenesis that need to be defined. The integrated signals and molecular repertoires that shape the particular architecture of specific organs like the kidney or the liver are not completely understood yet. To develop a new scientific platform to be able to build up complex organs we have established a research program using basically Acellular Xenogeneic Isomorphic Matrices (AXIMs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) generating the necessary concepts for the definition, production, and application of the specific configurations of these matrices for organ regeneration. New and interesting pathways for MSC differentiation were identified. We believe that all extracellular matrices were created fundamentally equal or at least very similar in nature. We also believe that there are true “matrix superhighway configurations” with different three-dimensional geometrical architectures as well as biochemical, electrical, and molecular properties that are tissue and organ specific that influence cell differentiation and organogenesis and will be fundamental for the in vitro regeneration of complex organs for transplantation.
