Cell transplantation is a sub-class of cell-based therapies, where cells placed on a two-dimensional or a three-dimensional polymeric scaffold facilitate the repair or regeneration of damaged tissue. Cell transplantation has aimed at providing a continuous supply of the enzyme from the transplanted cells and hence reducing the storage material in the diseased cells. Unfortunately, in some instances organs have irreversible damage. This book covers tremendous strides in cellular transplantation in recent years, leading to accepted practice for the treatment of certain diseases, and use for many others in trial phases.
