Titanium and titanium alloys are commonly employed materials for hard tissue replacements in bones and dental implants, thanks to their biocompatibility and high corrosion resistance...
Cerebrovascular accidents stroke is the sudden death of brain cells due to lack of oxygen. Worldwide, stroke is the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of disability1...
The naturally derived material small intestinal submucosa SIS is a decellularized and collagen-rich extracellular matrix material derived from the submucosal layer of porcine intestine, is widely used in clinic and preclinic research, since it remains mainly structural and functional molecules of native extracellular matrix ECM , such as collagen, hyaluronic acid, and kinds of growth factors...
Injectable hydrogels that can be delivered using needles offer particular advantages in biomedical applications given that these hydrogels do not require invasive surgical implantation, thereby reducing recovery time for patients, reducing costs, and in many cases enabling direct encapsulation, rather than post-encapsulation, of cells during the gel formation process 1 ...
