Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is a collection of selected papers from the 48th Japanese Society for Organ Preservation and Biology (JSOPB) (http://jognbio.umin.jp/). The Journal of Clinical Medicine (JCM) is providing an opportunity to publish selected data presented at the annual meeting.
The JSOPB was founded in 1974 with the aim of studying organ preservation and rapidly developed during the 1990s following the participation of researchers in various fields of medicine, pharmacology, engineering, veterinary medicine, and basic science. Currently, the JSOPB has more than 700 members and operates under the direction of its president, Prof. Mamoru Kusaka.
The most outstanding presentations made at the 48th annual meeting of the JSOPB—held on 4–5 November 2022, in Hiroshima, Japan under the supervision of Prof. Hideki Ohdan (Department of Gastroenterological and Transplant Surgery, Graduate School of Biomedical and Health Sciences, Hiroshima University. Hiroshima, Japan)—were selected and given the opportunity to be published in this Special Issue of JCM.
One of the vital objectives of the annual meeting of the JSOPB is to exchange new research outcomes and create new therapeutic concepts. Therefore, the aim of the present Special Issue as follows:
- Molecular and cellular biology of organ preservation and transplantation;
- Biology of pharmacology;
- Organ/tissue engineering;
- Stem cell therapy;
- Stem cell biology.
Prof. Dr. Hirofumi Noguchi
