In addition to cell replacement strategies, increased understanding of the intrinsic regenerative potential of individual organs, coupled with knowledge of how to control the scarring response in damaged tissues, may allow the development of drugs aimed at stimulating the body's own (endogenous) stem cells to initiate or enhance repair. This approach is expected to prove more suitable than cell replacement for some diseases.
