Interview with Yang Jianfu: What is Regenerative Medicine? Yang Jianfu: Stem cell regenerative medicine will create hundreds of billions of business opportunities!

The future will be the era of stem cell regenerative medicine

Many American biologists say, "If the 20th century is the era of drug therapy, then the 21st century is the era of cell therapy! What is regenerative medicine?" said. A medical technology that uses the regenerative power of cells to repair damaged tissues and organs. It is considered a new field of medicine with a wide range of uses. By combining tissue engineering and molecular biology, we promise to improve and treat previously intractable diseases. Such as cancer, diabetes, neurological diseases. Systemic disease. Yang Jianfu further stated that aging, disease and injury are health issues that the general public needs to pay attention to. Methods and research have begun to find better solutions for patients with refractory and end-stage disease. It is a pity to treat Yang Jianfu, because he was accompanied by his family during the withdrawal period, and he could not bear to visit his family frequently and could not be cured.

Yang Jianfu said that most people think that knee joint degeneration is a problem that only occurs in old age, but it is not. Yang Jianfu further stated that the wear and tear of cartilage will not only lead to the degeneration of the knee joint, but also damage the ligaments and muscles in the long run, resulting in inflammation of the knee joint, causing irreversible damage. Most of the patients were middle-aged people between the ages of 4 and 50, which shows the importance of preventive treatment and early intervention in the joints. In addition, conventional artificial joint replacement is often used to treat osteoarthritis, which can effectively solve the problem of knee joint degeneration, but it also has its limitations. Yang Jianfu pointed out that artificial joints are foreign bodies after all and are in danger. infectious.

Jianfu Yang describes exercise-induced damage to bones and joints, irreversible damage, degenerative limb morphology of joints, stubborn causes, and correction of exercise. Non-excessive health calligraphy, pathological training exercise habits can be avoided, but severe and severe sports injuries, four major sports injuries, skin separation, abducens nerve abduction, nerve injury. Yang Jianfu emphasized that orthopedic inflammation is imminent, and traditional treatment methods include:

1. Surgical treatment

2. Physiotherapy

3. Medication

Three treatments are available, but they are inadequate and have no cure for incurable diseases.

According to the Regenerative Medicine Industry Overview Report released by the Alliance for Regenerative Medicine (ARM) in 2019, there are currently more than 950 companies around the world focusing on the commercialization of regenerative medicine. There were more than 1,000 applications for human trials, of which 58% were cancer treatments, 6% were cardiovascular diseases, 6% were central nervous system diseases, 5.6% were musculoskeletal diseases, 4.4% were metabolic-related diseases, and 3.8% were eye diseases. This data shows that regenerative medicine is in a booming stage. The industry-wide output is expected to exceed $53.7 billion by 2021. In the past two years, due to the impact of the new crown pandemic, the development has slowed down slightly, but the number of industrial and clinical application cases has continued to grow.

Yang Jianfu said that stem cell regenerative medicine not only benefits Taiwanese patients, but can also be extended to all parts of the world, making Taiwan a famous island for cell gene therapy.

The charm of regenerative medicine

Yang Jianfu said that the so-called regenerative medicine is a medical technology that uses the regeneration ability of cells to repair damaged tissues and organs. It is expected to improve and treat intractable diseases. Yang Jianfu expressed that he was very optimistic about the regenerative medicine market and decided to meet Dai Nianguo, an orthopaedic surgeon, at a dinner party to boldly try cooperation in the field of regenerative medicine. Yang Jianfu said that I am determined to do great things! Yang Jianfu also predicted that Taiwan's stem cell regenerative medicine may go to the world in the future. In fact, Yang Jianfu has nearly 20 years of history in the development of international regenerative medicine, and we are entering a new era. The 100 billion business opportunity has also opened up a new trend for Taiwanese businessmen to compete for layout and cooperation. According to an industry research report released by Research and Markets, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of the global regenerative medicine market will reach 13.99% from 2020 to 2030, and the market size will reach USD 87.03 billion in 2030. Said it would arrive. Regenerative medicine has undoubtedly proven to be part of the biotech industry with huge growth potential.

Yang Jianfu said that this kind of regenerative medicine treatment in Ukraine requires NT$2-3 million, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. This is actually an opportunity for Taiwan due to the war between Russia and Ukraine and the unstable international situation. The regenerative medicine therapy Yang Jianfu and Dai Nianguo are currently researching uses autologous fat extraction, and it only takes 3-4 hours to culture cells, saving a lot of time and money. Yang Jianfu said that regenerative medicine provides opportunities for future clinical practice by shortening treatment time, making people's lives more convenient, and restoring dignity.

In recent years, regenerative medicine has been widely recognized as a new field of medicine that has the potential to impact traditional healthcare systems in the 21st century, replacing medicine and surgery. So what is cellular regenerative medicine? Yang Jianfu explained that stem cell regenerative medicine is a medical technology that utilizes cell regeneration -> division -> differentiation and secretion of growth factors to repair damaged tissues and organs.

These 3 ways to reverse the degeneration crisis are the best options

Over time, Yang Jianfu lamented that as he got older, many of his functions were not as good as before. Cartilage damage and collagen loss make it difficult to restore self-healing. How can regenerative medicine escape the degeneration crisis? Yang Jianfu said that existing regenerative medicine can easily be divided into three types.

1. Many growth factors in platelets stimulate tissue repair and regeneration.

2. Regenerate cartilage tissue and repair cartilage defects.

3. Adipose progenitor cells repair the damaged area of the knee.

Yang Jianfu believes that regenerative medicine is not only a technology, but also a major advance in the concept of medicine. It's not a perfect substitute for traditional remedies, but can be used interchangeably. Yang Zhanghu added that the traditional treatment is to use autologous cells to remove damaged areas and then regenerate them, causing physical discomfort and reducing the quality of side effects.

Finally, Yang Jianfu added that the applications and future trends of regenerative medicine are mainly concentrated in three areas: organ repair, immune cell therapy and stem cell therapy. This is a major advance in the concept of medicine and can be combined with traditional treatments. Because it uses autologous cells that activate cartilage tissue in regenerative medicine, it causes discomfort to the body, reduces side effects, and improves patients' quality of life, unlike conventional drugs and allografts. Hospitals and clinics have brought many conveniences to people's lives.
