For 25 years, he has been developing gene and cell therapy using non-human primates, immune-tolerant mice, and rats to protect against the side effects of radiation. He collaborates with clinicians to develop strategies for the treatment of patients after radiotherapy overexposures. He has participated in the first establishment of proof of concept of the therapeutic efficacy of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for the treatment of hematopoietic deficit, radiodermatitis, and overdosages of radiotherapy. He has contributed to the first reported correction of deficient hematopoiesis in patients (graft failure and aplastic anemia) thanks to intravenous injection of MSCs restoring the bone marrow microenvironment, mandatory to sustain hematopoiesis after total body irradiation. He is the scientific investigator of Clinical phase II trial evaluating the efficacy of systemic MSC injections for the treatment of severe and chronic radiotherapy-induced abdominopelvic complications refractory to standard therapy

Sherko Nasseri completed Ph.D. in molecular medicine. Assistant Professor, from Kurdistan University of Medical Sciences, Iran. During my Ph.D. Thesis, I worked on the generation of Fam83h Knockout Mice by using the CRISPR/Cas9 method. The absence of Fam83h these mice has the scruffy cover, dry eye phenotypes, and also these mice were smaller than the same age normal mice. In continuation of this project, we found that the WNT/B-Catenin pathway decreased. The Fam83h gene has a high expression level in the gastrointestinal tract. Given all that has been said, it brings me a critical question that how does the fam83h gene play role in the gastrointestinal tract?
