Regenerative Medicine & Healthy Aging
AGEING AND DEGENERATIVE DISEASES RESEARCH GROUP
RESEARCH INTERESTS
Ageing and degenerative diseases research group consists of researchers who focus on investigating the molecular changes that occur with ageing and degenerative diseases. We use various models of ageing in our study such as human diploid fibroblasts (HDF), myoblasts, cardiomyocytes, osteoblasts and osteoclasts, Caenorhabditis elegans, zebra fish, aged rats and mice, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae in elucidating the molecular and cellular changes in ageing and degenerative diseases besides doing human study. Our group has also developed an in vitro model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) which carries the wild-type and mutant form of APP gene. This model mimics in vivo AD due to the presence of elevated amyloid-beta protein. Besides focusing on degenerative diseases such as AD and sarcopenia, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is another field of research of our group members. We are also actively involved in elucidating the molecular mechanisms of natural compounds such as palm tocotrienols, microalgae Chlorella vulgaris, gelam honey, Piper betle, Gynura procumbens and Zingiber officinale Roscoe (ginger) in delaying ageing with emphasis on intracellular signaling pathways and its regulation by genes, transcription factors and micro RNAs. Various omics platforms such as genomics, proteomics and metabolomics are applied in trying to identify the compound that can be used to delay ageing and prevent degenerative diseases.

TISSUE ENGINEERING AND REGENERATIVE MEDICINE
RESEARCH INTERESTS
Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM) research group is concerned with the natural self-healing capacities of the body and seeks to harness this regenerative property by integrating stem cell technologies, biomaterials and engineering solutions to reconstruct, replace or rejuvenate injured organs and tissues. The current TERM research group consists of multidisciplinary researchers who are clinicians, basic scientists, translational scientists as well as engineers. They are interested in a few niche areas such as cardiovascular bioengineering, airway bioengineering, stem cell technology & derivatives, functional biomaterials & nanotechnology, neuro-skeletal bioengineering, biosignalling, urogenital bioengineering, cutaneous tissue engineering, oral & maxillofacial tissue engineering and ocular tissue engineering. The team has embarked on a range of initiatives aimed at delivering therapeutic solutions though tissue engineering technology. Stem cells such as induced pluripotent stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells and its secretory products such as exosomes are used to study cell biology, to screen drug toxicity, to develop in vitro model for testing purposes as well as to understand and treat diseases. Nature inspired functional biomaterials such as fibrin, ovine collagen type I, gelatin, poultry elastin, bacterial cellulose and many more were used as scaffold for tissue engineering or as carrier for biologics. The team has a translational focus and a number of clinical studies have been initiated. For example, a clinical phase II trial on tissue-engineered skin substitutes using cultured autologous skin cells with the patient’s serum has been conducted in 2014-2018. Tissue-engineered bone composed of autologous mesenchymal stromal cells on ceramic graft and platelet-rich plasma have been applied clinically for bone non-union cases. Besides, tissue-engineered cornea has been used to replace a chemically injured cornea of a patient. Currently, a clinical phase II trial is underway using mesenchymal stromal cells for osteoarthritis of the knee.
TERM research group members are affiliated with the Centre of Tissue Engineering & Regenerative Medicine (CTERM) (https://www.ukm.my › ctermfper) located at the 12th floor, Clinical Block of the UKM Medical Centre. CTERM is the home office for the Tissue Engineering & Regenerative Medicine Society (TESMA) (https://tesma.org.my/), a national body with over 100 active members composed of academic & industrial researchers from all over Malaysia. TESMA is affiliated with the International Society with more than a thousand members i.e. TERMIS (https://termis.org/).
