Cellulose is a natural homopolymer, composed of β-1, 4-anhydro-d-glucopyranose units.
Unlike plant cellulose, bacterial cellulose (BC), obtained from species belonging to the …

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) can differentiate into several cell types and are desirable
candidates for cell therapy and tissue engineering. However, due to poor cell survival …

Hydrogels based on natural polymers offer a range of properties to mimic the native
extracellular matrix, and provide microenvironments to preserve cellular function and …

Regulating cell behavior using nanotopography has been widely implemented. To facilitate
cell adhesion, physical nanotopography is usually coated with adhesive proteins such as …

Under diabetic conditions, blood glucose fluctuations and exacerbated immunopathological
inflammatory environments pose significant challenges to periosteal regenerative repair …

The lack of bioactivity in three-dimensional (3D)-printing of poly-є-caprolactone (PCL)
scaffolds limits cell-material interactions in bone tissue engineering. This constraint can be …

Despite all the efforts made in tissue engineering for tendon repair, the management of
tendon injuries still poses a challenge, as current treatments are unable to restore the …

Titanium (Ti) and its alloys are the most widely used metallic biomaterials in total joint
replacement; however, increasing evidence supports the degradation of its surface due to …

Ultrashort pulse lasers have significant advantages over conventional continuous wave and
long pulse lasers for the texturing of metallic surfaces, especially for nanoscale surface …
