實驗室

組織工程與再生醫學實驗室

專長

組織工程、再生醫學、幹細胞生物學、淋巴水腫研究

研究方向及研究室特色

實驗室的研究有以下兩大方向:

  1.  組織工程應用於硬組織與軟組織的再生

組織工程的技術常被應用於再生醫學。組織工程的方式大多將細胞、生物材料和生長因子結合起來,促進組織再生來修復或替換受損組織。組織工程的研究主要致力於設促進血管生成和細胞分化以用來進行新組織的再生。我們的實驗室主要是結合成人幹細胞和生物材料來設計客製化的3D 組織結構,其後續可應用於不同組織的再生 (Fig. 1). 實驗室研究對於再生的組織的目標涵蓋了硬組織 (硬骨、軟骨)與軟組織 (脂肪、淋巴組織、毛髮)。

  1. 探討淋巴水腫的機制與治療的方針

淋巴水腫起因於淋巴回流受阻導致的组織間隙中多餘淋巴液体異常的堆積。淋巴水腫可分为原發性和繼發性淋巴水腫。原發性淋巴水腫主要是先天性的淋巴系统異常發育。繼發性淋巴水腫則是由感染、癌症或輻射導致淋巴系统受损引起的。在乳腺癌或婦科癌症患者进行腫瘤與淋巴结切除和放療後,大约有40%的乳腺癌患者和20-49%的婦科癌症患者出現淋巴回流功能異常的併發症,導致淋巴液堆積在組織當中造成淋巴水腫的現象。目前對於淋巴水腫的發展過程以及引起淋巴水腫症状的具体機制了解甚少。此外,如何治療或預防淋巴水腫的研究對於未来的臨床應用也非常重要。在我們的實驗室中,我們致力於研究淋巴水腫的機制,並尋找可行的淋巴水腫治療與預防的方法(Fig.2)。
