Minimalist Tissue Engineering Approaches Using Low Material‐Based Bioengineered Systems

چکیده
From an “over-engineering” era in which biomaterials played a central role, now it is observed to the emergence of “developmental” tissue engineering (TE) strategies rely on integrative cell-material perspective that paves way for cell self-organization. The current challenge engineer microenvironment without hampering spontaneous collective arrangement ability cells, while simultaneously providing biochemical, geometrical, and biophysical cues positively influence healing. These efforts have resulted development low-material based TE focused minimizing amount biomaterial provided living key players regenerative process. Through “minimalist-engineering” approach, main idea fine-tune spatial balance occupied by inanimate region niche toward maximum actuation components during healing

Enabling microscale and nanoscale approaches for bioengineered cardiac tissue.
In this issue of ACS Nano, Shin et al. present their finding that the addition of carbon nanotubes (CNT) in gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) results in improved functionality of bioengineered cardiac tissue. These CNT-GelMA hybrid materials demonstrate cardiac tissue with enhanced electrophysiological performance; improved mechanical integrity; better cell adhesion, viability, uniformity, and organ...

متن کاملAutologous Approaches to Tissue Engineering
Stem cells have added a new thrust to tissue engineering. Their distinctive self-renewal and plasticity have not only optimized many tissue engineering developments, but also rendered feasible some applications which would otherwise be unattainable with somatic cells. This review focuses on general aspects of autologous tissue engineering based on so-called adult stem cells, which not only allo...
متن کاملApproaches to neural tissue engineering using scaffolds for drug delivery.
This review seeks to give an overview of the current approaches to drug delivery from scaffolds for neural tissue engineering applications. The challenges presented by attempting to replicate the three types of nervous tissue (brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerve) are summarized. Potential scaffold materials (both synthetic and natural) and target drugs are discussed with the benefits and d...
متن کاملBio-nanotechnology Approaches to Neural Tissue Engineering
Injury to the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and central nervous system (CNS) may result in severe functional loss. Spontaneous regeneration is limited to small lesions within the injured PNS and is actively suppressed within the CNS. In this chapter we discuss the pathology and changes in the physiological environment following PNS/CNS injury. Several key factors such as the glial scar and in...
