Abstract

Tissue engineering and regenerative medical therapy aims to create functional tissue grafts capable of regenerating/replacing defective or damaged tissues and organs for transplantation. Biomaterial matrices play the key role to provide three-dimensional templates for tissue regeneration by mimicking the extracellular matrix which includes required adhesion sites and growth factors for cell attachment and further development. In this article, we outline various biomimetic materials and approaches employed for designing smart scaffold systems for regeneration of tissues/organs.
