Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:In recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the potential inherent in using biologically derived materials within the field of tissue engineering. This recognition stems from the promising outcomes observed in research and development efforts, which highlight the mimicry capacity of the extracellular matrix (ECM)-like materials to propel the advancement of better research tools and regenerative therapies. The Handbook of the Extracellular Matrix: Biologically Derived Materials comprehensively covers the fundamentals of the ECM, explores the development and challenges associated with the use of biologically derived materials, and delves into their biomedical applications across six dedicated sections focusing on specific materials.Within its pages, readers will find discussions on advanced methodologies for developing biologically derived materials, the synthesis and processing challenges inherent in different materials, the biological activities, as well as the structural and physicochemical properties of these materials. The book also explores various modification methods aimed at enhancing their inherent properties, and examines a wide range of advanced applications, including their integration with emerging technologies, their role as tissue-engineered scaffolds, drug delivery systems, 3D in vitro tissue/tumor models, 3D bioprinted models, and bioinks. Drawing upon the expertise of leading experts in engineering, life sciences, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine, this book serves as an essential reference for students and a diverse array of established researchers and professionals within the biomedical field.
