<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>Organ Repair and Regeneration: Preserving Organs in the Regenerative Medicine Era</i> encompasses updates on all organs, from the kidneys, to the lungs, liver, pancreas, intestines, and beyond. Chapters cover the pathophysiology of ischemia-reperfusion, repairing organs with MSC, repairing cardiac allografts in situ, and much more. The book conceptualizes the idea that the modern approach to organ preservation is ante literam, a form of organ repair and regeneration which, per se, is referred to as a field of health sciences under the umbrella of regenerative medicine. This book demonstrates the merging of regenerative medicine and organ transplantation.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>This book demonstrates the merging of regenerative medicine and organ transplantation. Key Features: Covers all aspects of organ preservation, repair and regeneration; Addresses the repair of organs that experience an Ischemia/Reperfusion (I/R) injury, those that are intended for transplantation, and specific issues related to each organ; Presented by editors and authors who are physicians, surgeons and researchers in the field of organ transplantation and regenerative medicine. <b>--Anticancer Research</b></p> <p>This is the latest in a series of textbooks published by Academic Press/Elsevier, edited or co-edited by Dr. Giuseppe Orlando, in the broad field of organ transplantation and covering all aspects of organ regeneration, from technological advances in organ preservation and reperfusion to regenerative medicine [1-3]. Orlando is a kidney and pancreas transplant surgeon from Wake Forest University, a unique environment in which a strong transplant programme coexists with a world-renowned institute of regenerative medicine, led by Dr. Anthony Atala. Organ Repair and Regeneration is a 289-page book co-edited by Orlando and Dr. Shaf Keshavjee, who has been a pioneer in the reconditioning of marginal lung grafts. The book is divided into 14 chapters written by authors from North America, Europe and Australia. In his foreword to this book, Dr. Atala sets the stage for what readers can expect from this book: '...we have developed a surrogate field of science called 'organ preservation' that -to the editors of this book - represents the most formidable platform nowadays for the application of regenerative medicine technologies in transplant medicine' [4]. The book is divided into 14 chapters that can each be read as an independent review article. It is introduced by a chapter describing the concepts and molecular mechanisms of ischaemia-reperfusion injury that will be a reference for all further chapters of the book. <b>--Transplant International</b> </p><br>
