A method for growing stem cells comprising the steps of
- providing stem cells with supporters said supporters being genetically modified in order to provide externally regulatable interactions between the supporters and the stem cells;
- applying an external signal for starting or stopping the interactions.
A method of curing diseases by gene therapy and/or cell therapy in combination with tissue engineering when the functional expression of stem cells is helped with the engineered architecture of the tissue which diseases are related to insufficient and/or lack and/or disorders of stem cells, by administering to patients in need thereof, supporters being genetically modified in order to provide externally regulatable interaction between supporter cells and stem cells.
