Uterus Bioengineering Using Stem Cells May Help Treat Endometriosis

Endometriosis could soon be treated by a new technique that uses stem cells (induced pluripotent stem or iPS cells), which can be reprogrammed to produce healthy uterine cells. These healthy cells will replace the diseased tissue, thereby providing a potential therapeutic approach to cure the disease.

Novel treatment for endometriosis discovered. Endometriosis could soon be treated using induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. iPS cells can produce healthy uterine cells and can replace the damaged endometrial tissue. In future, a bioengineered uterus could be produced using this technology.
