Nanosized biomaterials for regenerative medicine
This review discusses recent developments in the field of nanosized biomaterials and their use in tissue regeneration approaches. The aim is to provide an overview of the research focused on nanoparticle-based strategies to stimulate regeneration. In particular, nanoparticles improve the regenerative capabilities of biomaterials offering ways to control surface and mechanical properties. Moreov...

متن کاملECM-Based Materials in Cardiovascular Applications: Inherent Healing Potential and Augmentation of Native Regenerative Processes
The in vivo healing process of vascular grafts involves the interaction of many contributing factors. The ability of vascular grafts to provide an environment which allows successful accomplishment of this process is extremely difficult. Poor endothelisation, inflammation, infection, occlusion, thrombosis, hyperplasia and pseudoaneurysms are common issues with synthetic grafts in vivo. Advanced...
متن کاملAlginate-Based Biomaterials for Regenerative Medicine Applications
Alginate is a natural polysaccharide exhibiting excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, having many different applications in the field of biomedicine. Alginate is readily processable for applicable three-dimensional scaffolding materials such as hydrogels, microspheres, microcapsules, sponges, foams and fibers. Alginate-based biomaterials can be utilized as drug delivery systems and c...
متن کاملECM signals ECM degradation
W hen Caroline Damsky moved her lab to the University of California, San Francisco, in 1985, she knew she would have an instant colleague in Zena Werb. There was a natural connection between their work. That connection would be refl ected in their discoveries, which delineated an integrin-mediated pathway from the extracellular matrix (ECM) outside the cell to the internal, gene-expressing life...
