Microfluidic-Based Synthesis of Hydrogel Particles for Cell Microencapsulation and Cell-Based Drug Delivery
Encapsulation of cells in hydrogel particles has been demonstrated as an effective approach to deliver therapeutic agents. The properties of hydrogel particles, such as the chemical composition, size, porosity, and number of cells per particle, affect cellular functions and consequently play important roles for the cell-based drug delivery. Microfluidics has shown unparalleled advantages for th...
متن کاملUse of Mesenchymal Adult Stem Cell for Cartilage Regeneration by Hydrogel
Background and Aims: Cartilage is a very specific tissue, which does not have the capacity to heal and renew itself. Although the invention of the method of surgery with autologous chondrocyte transplantation, developed tools to treat the cartilage lesions, it couldn’t gain a great success due to problems such as damage to the area of donation. Using the mesenchymal stem cells derived from adip...
متن کاملEngineering biomaterials for synthetic neural stem cell microenvironments.
Neural stem cells (NSCs) have been isolated from various speciesssuch as mice, rats, and humanssand from numerous regions in the developing and adult nervous systemsincluding the subventricular zone (SVZ), the subgranular zone of the hippocampus, the cortical neuroepithelium, and the spinal cord. In vivo, the NSC is encompassed by a microenvironment or niche that presents it with a repertoire o...
متن کاملHepatocyte Growth Factor-Loaded Biomaterials for Mesenchymal Stem Cell Recruitment
Human adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) can be readily harvested from bone marrow through aspiration. MSC are involved in tissue regeneration and repair, particularly in wound healing. Due to their high self-renewal capacity and excellent differentiation potential in vitro, MSC are ideally suited for regenerative medicine. The complex interactions of MSC with their environment and their influe...
متن کاملMesenchymal Stem Cell Fate: Applying Biomaterials for Control of Stem Cell Behavior
The materials pipeline for biomaterials and tissue engineering applications is under continuous development. Specifically, there is great interest in the use of designed materials in the stem cell arena as materials can be used to manipulate the cells providing control of behavior. This is important as the ability to "engineer" complexity and subsequent in vitro growth of tissues and organs is ...
