Abstract
The regenerative medicine by offering to cure rather than to treat disease become very attractive therapeutic scope for clinicians, researchers and patients. The number of research articles related to platelet rich plasma and stem cells grew up exponentially in the last 20 years. Preclinical and clinical studies enriched our knowledge and expertise, but also brought up certain controversies and sometimes disappointments. Regenerative therapy already passed away from animal studies to human applications and it made the footprint in different medical fields. The presentation will focus on clinical application of autologous mesenchymal stem cell, biological properties and mechanism of action as well as selection of patients who might benefit from this type of treatment. Some controversies and commercialization of regenerative medicine will be particularly highlighted.
