Tissue engineering is an exciting frontier in modern medicine. Its aim is to repair or replaced damaged tissue or organs, either by inserting a combination of live cells and carrier/scaffold materials or by encouraging the tissue to regenerate of its own accord, with or without the help of foreign material.
This book is a compilation of articles describing current and emerging developments in tissue engineering. A key focus of the book is the use of stem cell techniques for the regeneration/repair of dental tissue, bone, cartilage, adipose tissue, smooth and skeletal muscle, urological tissue and nerves. Other topics discussed in the book include the development of scaffolds based on nanomaterials or fibrin gels, cell culture and delivery techniques, and the use of natural materials such as collagen in regenerative medicine.
We believe that this book will provide a valuable source of insight and ideas for researchers working in tissue engineering, and we hope that it will provide a platform for further research and collaboration. The book will also be of interest to advanced medical students and clinicians in all relevant disciplines.
