MSCs and Innovative Biomaterials in Dentistry
Presents the modern concepts of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and biomaterials as they pertain to the dental field. The book is organized around three main topics: MSCs biology, advanced biomaterials, and clinical applications. The chapters present basic information on stem cell biology and physiology, modern biomaterials that improve bone tissue regeneration, the biomatrices like platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) used to functionalize the biomaterials surface, the strategic and safe intraoral seats of harvesting, the new sources for MSCs, as well as the future perspectives and new challenges in these exciting fields.
Handbook of research on nano-drug delivery and tissue engineering : Guide to strengthening healthcare systems
Provides an important and valuable collection of research accomplishments in nanomedicine, drug delivery, tissue engineering, processing, formulations, and their applications. Addresses topical issues in nano-drug delivery and nanotechnological approaches to tissue engineering. The first section offers research on a variety of diverse nano-based drug delivery systems, along with discussions of their efficacy, safety, toxicology, and applications for different purposes. Focusing on nanotechnology approaches to tissue engineering, part two of the volume considers the use of hydrogel systems, nanoceria and micro- and nano-structured biomaterials for bone tissue engineering, mesenchymal stem cells, and more. This volume is a systematic scientific reference of the novel research developments specifically in this area. The editors give special emphasis on the new trends and developments in the field of nanomedicine that will be very helpful for pharmaceutical and medical researchers, scientists, faculty, and students.
