Brought to you by the charity Bowel Research UK, here we welcome bowel cancer and bowel disease patients, researchers, healthcare professionals and carers to butt in and share their experiences. Your host is Patient and Public Involvement Manager Sam Alexandra Rose. We’re picking a topic every episode and getting to the bottom of it.
026: AMELIE - Anchored Muscle Cells for Incontinence
Bowel Research UK CEO Kathryn Pretzel-Shiels is joined by members of the AMELIE project team to discuss this groundbreaking research. AMELIE (Anchored Muscle cells for Incontinence) aims to help people with faecal incontinence due to anal sphincter injury, particularly women who have experienced this injury through childbirth. In this clinical trial, muscle cells are attached to microcarriers and implanted as part of regenerative cell therapy to restore muscle function. Professor Richard Day, Professor Charlie Knowles, and Dr Marina Yiasemidou discuss their roles, the progress and challenges of this research so far, and the potential benefits to patients in the future.
