Chronic liver injuries lead to liver fibrosis and then to end-stage liver cirrhosis. Liver
transplantation is often needed as a course of treatment for patients in critical conditions, but …

Osteoarthritis (OA), although extensively researched, still lacks an effective and safe
treatment. The only current treatment option available for advanced OA is joint replacement …

Although adipose tissue is one of the most abundant tissues of the human body, its
reconstruction remains a competitive challenge. The conventional in vitro two or three …

Carbon-based nanomaterials, such as graphene oxide (GO) or carbon nanotubes (CNTs)

Rigidity of substrates plays an important role in stem cell fate. Studies are commonly carried
out on isotropically stiff substrate or substrates with unidirectional stiffness gradients …

Adipose tissue is an attractive stem cell source for soft and bone tissue engineering
applications and stem cell therapies. The adipose‐derived stromal/stem cells (ASCs) have a …

Cartilage tissue engineering (CTE) applications are focused towards the use of implantable
biohybrids consisting of biodegradable scaffolds combined with in vitro cultured cells …

This study describes the preparation and characterization of a biodegradable 3D hydrogel
constructed from hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), modified with bifunctional methacrylic …

Due to the reduced ability of most harmed tissues to self-regenerate, new strategies are
being developed in order to promote self-repair assisted or not by biomaterials, among …

The quality of life of patients with chronic wounds can be extremely poor and, therefore, over
the past decades, great efforts have been made to develop efficient strategies to improve the …
