Abstract:
Along with growth and development, the technology has also brought us accidents, ailments and diseases. Tissue loss is one of the problems resulting from these. The existing treatments like transplants, surgical repair etc. do not hold well as a permanent cure and they often require painful surgical procedures. Considering other alternatives like tissue engineering and regenerative medicine practices, they focus primarily on permanent cure. Current strategies of regenerative medicine are focused on the restoration of pathologically altered tissue architectures by transplantation of cells in combination with supportive scaffolds and biomolecules. In recent years, considerable interest has been given to biologically active scaffolds which are based on similar analogs of the extracellular matrix that have induced synthesis of tissues and organs. The application of different composites in the field of tissue engineering increased the scope and efficiency of tissue engineering field
