Zusammenfassung

Der Einsatz von Stammzellen eröffnet neue Therapiemöglichkeiten. Bisher unheilbare Erkrankungen wie Morbus Parkinson oder Diabetes mellitus sollen durch deren Einsatz heilbar werden. Obwohl eine Stammzelle genau definiert ist, wird der Begriff wahllos verwendet. Undifferenzierte Zellen (Stammzellen oder Progenitorzellen) werden aus pränatalen (embryonalen) und postnatalen Geweben isoliert. Im Folgenden sollen ein Überblick über embryonale und adulte Stammzellen gegeben und der mögliche Einsatz auf dem Gebiet des Tissue Engineerings in der Urologie aufgezeigt werden.

Abstract

Stem cells are considered a possible alternative treatment for degenerative diseases. Parkinson’s disease and diabetes mellitus may become curable using stem cells. The term “stem cell” is used very broadly, although it has been well defined. Undifferentiated cells (stem cells and progenitor cells) are isolated from prenatal and postnatal tissues. This review provides an overview of embryonic and adult stem cells and describes potential applications in the field of tissue engineering in urology.
