Brief description Regenerative cellular therapy e.g. with adult stem cells is a promising novel medical therapy. However, until now there is no reliable method to direct cells to areas where they are needed. We aim to develop a biotechnological approach based on genetically tailored antibody molecules that will allow cell targeting. As a pilot project we will test whether this approach improves lipid deposition and hardening of arteries.
