The cell microenvironment has emerged as a key determinant of behavior and function in development, physiology, pathophysiology. extracellular matrix (ECM) within the serves not only structural foundation for cells but also source three-dimensional (3D) biochemical biophysical cues that trigger regulate behaviors. Increasing evidence suggests 3D character is required development many critical responses observed vivo, fueling surge functional biomimetic materials engineering microenvironment. Progress design such improved control behaviors advanced fields tissue regeneration, vitro models, large-scale differentiation, immunotherapy, gene therapy. However, field still its infancy, discoveries about nature cell–microenvironment interactions continue to overturn much early progress field. Key challenges be dissecting roles chemistry, structure, mechanics, electrophysiology microenvironment, understanding harnessing periodicity drift these factors. This review encapsulates where recent advances appear leave ever-shifting state art, it highlights areas which substantial potential uncertainty remain.

Decellularized extracellular matrix scaffolds: Recent trends and emerging strategies in tissue engineering

Bioactive Materials, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 10, С. 15 - 31

Опубликована: Сен. 23, 2021

The application of scaffolding materials is believed to hold enormous potential for tissue regeneration. Despite the widespread and rapid advance several tissue-engineered scaffolds such as natural synthetic polymer-based scaffolds, they have limited repair capacity due difficulties in overcoming immunogenicity, simulating in-vivo microenvironment, performing mechanical or biochemical properties similar native organs/tissues. Fortunately, emergence decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) provides an attractive way overcome these hurdles, which mimic optimal non-immune environment with three-dimensional structures various bioactive components. consequent cell-seeded construct based on dECM especially stem cell-recellularized construct, considered ideal choice regenerating functional Herein, we review recent developments put forward perspectives accordingly, particular focus concept fabrication well their combinations cells (recellularized scaffolds) engineering, including skin, bone, nerve, heart, along lung, liver kidney.
