Conventional therapeutic models based on the premise of a universal solution are facing decrease in efficiency, emphasized by large number patients who show resistance or do not respond positively to classic treatments. This perspective highlights urgency for more precise approaches personalized treatments that adaptable specific complexities and unique challenges faced each patient. Hydrogels biocompatible biodegradable systems well-controlled targeted administration agents, being formed 3D reticulated networks water-soluble polymeric biomaterials, natural, synthetic, hybrid origin, with intrinsic extrinsic properties. Due easily adjustable porous structure, hydrogels allow encapsulation macromolecular drugs, proteins, small molecules, cells, hormones, growth factors gel matrix their subsequent controlled release. The biomaterials used, crosslinking methods, design, functionalization strategies obtaining improved properties presented. different possibilities application described transdermally, as dressing materials, oral, ocular, spray-able, injectable, up intracellular level. chapter extensively investigates advances advantages enable effective, noninvasive, provide greater patient comfort wide range applications.

Hydrogels are of great importance in biomedical engineering. They possess the ability to mimic bodily soft tissues, and this allows exciting possibilities for applications such as tissue engineering, drug delivery wound healing, however much work remains on stability mechanical robustness allow translation clinical applications. The herein describes synthesis analysis a biocompatible, versatile hydrogel that has tailorable swelling, high when swollen thermal stability. methods used produce with elasticity, good properties rapid crosslinking whilst displaying biocompatibility, adhesion, conductivity. It been shown cell viability samples is above 80 % all cases, Young's Modulus up 85 kPa swelling degrees were achieved. These materials show potential use numerous adhesive sensors, skin grafts systems.

Mechanosensing and mechanotransduction pathways between the Extracellular Matrix (ECM) cells form essential crosstalk that regulates cell homeostasis, tissue development, morphology, maintenance, function. Understanding these mechanisms involves creating an appropriate support elicits signals to guide cellular functions. In this context, polymers can serve as ideal molecules for producing biomaterials designed mimic characteristics of ECM, thereby triggering responsive closely resemble those induced by a natural physiological system. The generated specific stimuli depend on different or synthetic origins polymers, chemical composition, assembly structure, physical surface properties biomaterials. This review discusses most widely used their customization develop with tailored properties. It examines how biomaterials-based be harnessed replicate functions biological cells, making them suitable biomedical biotechnological applications.
