Nanotechnology in Biomaterials: Nanofibers in Tissue Engineering
Devices made of synthetic or natural materials have been used in the medical area and introduced into the human body to improve human health since ancient times. Romans, Chinese, and Aztecs used gold wires in dentistry more than 2,000 years ago. Ancient Egyptians and Greeks sutured wounds with plant !bers and animal-derived materials and used wood for prosthetic limbs. Since then, scientists ha...
متن کاملBiomaterials for Cardiac Tissue Engineering
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a leading death cause in developed countries (1 of every 3 deaths in the United States in 2008) [1]. Changes in diet and habits are causing CVD to become major mortality pathologies in developing countries too [2] (they are already responsible for a 30% of the world deaths). This group of diseases constitutes a great burden for the national health systems, cons...
متن کاملBiomaterials for Dental PulP engineering
ago is within the realm of possibility today, and various tissue engineering products are already being applied in clinical practice. Spectacular developments include the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (Takahashi and Yamanaka, 2006), a beating heart in a petri dish (Jakab et al., 2008), the first successful transplantation of a tissue-engineered trachea (Macchiarini et al., 2008),...
متن کاملKeratoconus: Tissue Engineering and Biomaterials
Keratoconus (KC) is a bilateral, asymmetric, corneal disorder that is characterized by progressive thinning, steepening, and potential scarring. The prevalence of KC is stated to be 1 in 2000 persons worldwide; however, numbers vary depending on size of the study and regions. KC appears more often in South Asian, Eastern Mediterranean, and North African populations. The cause remains unknown, a...
متن کاملAmorphous calcium phosphates: synthesis, properties and uses in biomaterials.
This review paper on amorphous calcium phosphates (ACPs) provides an update on several aspects of these compounds which have led to many studies and some controversy since the 1970s, particularly because of the lack of irrefutable proof of the occurrence of an ACP phase in mineralised tissues of vertebrates. The various synthesis routes of ACPs with different compositions are reported and the t...
