Cardiac Regeneration and Repair Mechanisms

  • Stem Cell Therapy in Cardiology
  • Tissue Engineering and 3D Bioprinting
  • Gene Therapy for Cardiac Repair
  • Biomaterials and Scaffolds in Heart Tissue Engineering
  • Cardiomyocyte Proliferation Strategies

Repairing injured myocardium is a frontier with transformative potential. The Cardiac Regeneration and Repair Mechanisms session explores cellular therapies, gene editing, tissue engineering and molecular strategies that promote myocardial repair, reverse fibrosis and restore function. Speakers will present preclinical advances in stem cell derivatives, exosome biology, gene-delivery vectors and CRISPR-based approaches, along with translational pathways to early-phase clinical trials. Discussions will emphasise mechanisms of cardiomyocyte proliferation, extracellular matrix remodelling, angiogenesis and immunomodulation that underpin regeneration. Panels will review safety, delivery methods, dosing strategies and standardized outcome measures for regenerative trials, including imaging and biomarker endpoints. Workshops focus on manufacturing, regulatory constraints and scalable production for cell-based products, as well as ethical considerations and patient selection frameworks. Attendees will gain a balanced view of promise and pitfalls, learning how mechanistic insights map to feasible clinical strategies—within the Cardiac Regeneration Conference scope—and will examine case examples of early regenerative interventions and their outcomes.

Why Regeneration Is Transformative

Restore myocardial function
Regenerative approaches aim to reverse damage rather than just manage symptoms.

Reduce long-term morbidity
Successful repair may decrease heart failure progression and need for advanced devices.

Open new therapeutic classes
Cell and gene products expand options beyond traditional pharmacology and devices.

Drive cross-disciplinary innovation
Regeneration integrates bioengineering, molecular biology and clinical cardiology.
