In vivo and in vitro studies in mouse models have demonstrated promising results and additional research is currently being undertaken to assess how stem cells react to inflammatory stimuli, as well as genomic changes post-implant. This interview took place at the 6th World Congress of the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society (TERMIS 2021).

Anne des Rieux, PhD, Université catholique de Louvain, Louvain, Belgium, describes various barriers associated with using stem cells in CNS diseases. Large scale manufacturing of stems cells remain limited, due to logistical constraints and cell contamination. Dr des Rieux additionally highlights the need to improve delivery systems and the advantages of using allogeneic cells. This interview took place at the 6th World Congress of the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society (TERMIS 2021).

Whilst EVs have been previously been investigated as diagnostic tools, current research suggests EVs can play a role in drug delivery. EVs, which contain various lipids, proteins and mRNA, can cross the blood-brain barrier, which is advantageous for the delivery of drugs to the brain. This interview took place at the 6th World Congress of the Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society (TERMIS 2021).
