Multiscale Cell-Biomaterials Interplay in Musculoskeletal Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine addresses the key concepts involved in the interactions between cells and biomaterials in the musculoskeletal tissue engineering and regenerative medicine field. The updated developments and challenges of the mechanisms/mechanobiology and structure-function properties of those interactions, as well as emerging technologies underlying tissue-engineered scaffolding, are carefully discussed. Lastly, cell engineering and cell-based therapies, growth factors/drugs properties, vascularization, immunomodulation are also outlined.
Given the large number of musculoskeletal disorders and related injuries that can affect muscles, bones and joints and lead to severe complications of the neuromuscular system, it is imperative to develop new treatment strategies to delay or repair associated diseases and to promote optimal long-term health.
