Injectable scaffolds for tissue regeneration

Hou, Qingpu, De Bank, Paul A., Shakesheff, Kevin M.·2004·Journal of Materials Chemistry

Abstract

Tissue engineering aims to develop functional substitutes for damaged or diseased tissues through complex constructs of living cells, bioactive molecules and three-dimensional porous scaffolds, which support cell attachment, proliferation and differentiation. Such constructs can be formed either by seeding cells within a pre-formed scaffold or through injection of a solidifiable precursor and cell mixture to the defective tissue. As cell and bioactive molecule carriers, injectable scaffolds are appealing, particularly from the clinical point of view, because they offer the possibility of homogeneously distributing cells and molecular signals throughout the scaffold and can be injected directly into cavities, even of irregular shape and size, in a minimally invasive manner. In this paper the challenges in designing an injectable scaffold from the viewpoint of materials chemistry and the solidification mechanisms of injectable precursors are discussed. The applications of injectable scaffolds in angiogenesis, bone repair and cartilage regeneration are described.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
