LAB GROWING SKIN CELLS AND PRINTING 3D ORGANS OPENS IN AMUR REGION

LAB GROWING SKIN CELLS AND PRINTING 3D ORGANS OPENS IN AMUR REGION

The cell laboratory, which plans to grow the first human skin cells and start printing 3D organs by the end of this year, opened in Amur Region city of Blagoveshchensk.

The materials will be used for medical research, said Sergey Belugin, the general director of Next Gen Biosystem, which was established on the core of the Amur Medical Academy.

All the ‘printed’ materials will be used in medicine. For example, the skin that is grown will be used at burn centres. “With burns covering 30 percent of the body or more, there is nowhere to take skin to close the wounds, and you can’t use someone else’s skin. To this end, we will grow skin in incubators. In terms of time, it will take a minimum of two weeks”, Belugin said.

Another focus of the laboratory will be a more in-depth study of oncological diseases and cooperation with the Petrov National Medical Research Centre of Oncology in St. Petersburg. Such cooperation will make it possible to obtain test results in a shorter time and patients will not have to travel to the central part of the country or clinics in Europe or Asia for testing.
