Francesco Dell’Accio, Professor of Musculoskeletal Regenerative Medicine and Rheumatology, Queen Mary, University of London
Host: George Bou-Gharios. 'Emerging molecules for biological regeneration of cartilage: New faces from old families.'
Professor Dell’Accio is a clinical rheumatologist and a scientist whose interest is focused in cartilage regeneration and ostoearthrtis. He has been active in the field of cartilage repair by and autologous chondrocyte transplantation. Moving to the UK in 2003 he unveiled the molecular cascade activated by injury to the articular cartilage. His current research aims at understanding the role that individual signaling molecules in cartilage wound healing and homeostatic responses, with the ultimate goal to develop pharmacological interventions to restore cartilage integrity. This quest has led to the identification of unexpected drivers of cartilage regeneration and to the generation of novel technologies to achieve cartilage regeneration without ex-vivo cell manipulation.
