First Heart - Lung Decelluarization in Russia
The system was purchased in the frames of the Megagrant of the Government of the Russian Federation. This grant was won by the University together with regenerative surgery Professor of Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Paolo Macchiarini. Two unique tracheal transplantations were performed at the Regional clinical hospital N1; the tracheas for these transplantations were created with the use of nanocomposite artificial scaffold seeded with the patient’s cells. Research starting at the Center of regenerative medicine of Kuban state medical university now opens up the possibilities for creation not only trachea, but other vital organs as well such as heart and lung in the future.
At the present moment only 12 laboratories all over the world are equipped with facilities of this kind. 10 of them are located in USA and only 2 are in Europe – at Karolinska Institute, Sweden, and at Kuban state medical university, Russia. Harvard Apparatus company specialists – producers of the equipment - started to train the specialists from the Center of regenerative medicine of KSMU to work with the “life reactors”.
