The extracellular matrix (ECM) has pleiotropic effects, ranging from cell adhesion to cell
survival. In tissue engineering, the use of ECM and ECM-like scaffolds has separated the …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a meshwork of both structural and functional proteins
assembled in unique tissue-specific architectures. The ECM both provides the mechanical …

Historically, tissue engineering focused primarily on the delivery of soluble factors within
relatively static scaffolds; yet, increasing evidence indicates that the native, dynamic three …

Stem cells are a promising cell source for regenerative medicine. Stem cell differentiation
must be regulated for applications in regenerative medicine. Stem cells are surrounded by …

Extracellular matrix (ECM) derived components are emerging sources for the engineering of
biomaterials that are capable of inducing desirable cell-specific responses. This review …

In tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, a biomaterial provides mechanical support
and biochemical signals to encourage cell attachment and modulate cell behaviour …

Decellularized scaffolds are promising clinically translational biomaterials that can be
applied to direct cell responses and promote tissue regeneration. Bioscaffolds derived from …

Tissue engineering is essentially a technique for imitating nature. Natural tissues are made
up of three parts: extracellular matrix (ECM), signaling systems, and cells. Therefore …

In the human body, almost all cells interact with extracellular matrices (ECMs), which have
tissue and organ-specific compositions and architectures. These ECMs not only function as …

Decellularized tissues have become a common regenerative medicine platform with multiple
materials being researched in academic laboratories, tested in animal studies, and used …
