"Cell and Tissue Engineering" introduces the principles and new
approaches in cell and tissue engineering. It includes both the
fundamentals and the current trends in cell and tissue engineering,
in a way useful both to a novice and an expert in the field. The
book is composed of 13 chapters all of which are written by the
leading experts. It is organized to gradually assemble an insight
in cell and tissue function starting form a molecular nano-level,
extending to a cellular micro-level and finishing at the tissue
macro-level. In specific, biological, physiological, biophysical,
biochemical, medical, and engineering aspects are covered from the
standpoint of the development of functional substitutes of
biological tissues for potential clinical use. Topics in the area
of cell engineering include cell membrane biophysics, structure and
function of the cytoskeleton, cell-extracellular matrix
interactions, and mechanotransduction. In the area of tissue
engineering the focus is on the in vitro cultivation of functional
tissue equivalents based on the integrated use of isolated cells,
biomaterials, and bioreactors. The book also reviews novel
techniques for cell and tissue imaging and characterization, some
of which are described in detail such as atomic force microscopy.
Finally, mathematical modeling methods are presented as valuable
and indispensable tools in cell and tissue engineering. Numerous
illustrations enhance the quality and ease of use of the presented
material.
