Porous-based biomaterials for tissue engineering and drug delivery applications
The current research on micro-and nano-biomaterials is expected to have an enormous impact on human health care. The applications include medical devices, diagnostics, sensors, drug delivery systems, and tissue/bone engineering. Drug delivery systems should be biocompatible allowing for high payloads of drug molecules without premature drug release, be site specific for targeting delivery, and ...
متن کاملAffinity-based drug delivery systems for tissue repair and regeneration.
Affinity-based release systems use transient interactions to sustain and control the release of a therapeutic from a polymeric matrix. The most common affinity-based systems use heparin-based scaffolds to sustain the release of heparin-binding proteins, such as fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). However, novel affinity-based systems based on, for ex...
متن کاملCell and drug delivery therapeutics for controlled renal parenchyma regeneration.
In regenerative medicine much attention is given to stem/progenitor cells for a future therapy of acute and chronic renal failure. However, up to date sound cell biological knowledge about nephron renewal in kidney is lacking. For that reason molecular mechanisms are under intense investigation leading from stem/progenitor cells to regenerated tubules. In this coherence new biomaterials and dru...
متن کاملTissue Regeneration Based on Drug Delivery Technology
T issue engineering (TE) is one of the biomedical technologies developed to assist the regeneration of body tissues to treat large size defects that are not possible to self-repair. TE may also help to substitute the biological functions of damaged organs by making use of cells. Although there is no doubt that cells are important for this purpose, an artificially created site to induce repair o...
متن کاملDensity Functional Theory Calculations of Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes with Metformin as Vehicles for Drug Delivery
Drug delivery by nanomaterials is an active emergent research area and CNTs draws considerable potential application owing to its unique quasi one-dimensional structure and electronic properties. Single walled carbon nanotubes and carbon fullerenes can be used in drug delivery due to their mechanical and chemical stability. The past few years, increasing attention by several reputed groups has ...
