Reviewing exhaustively the current state of the art of tissue
engineering strategies for regenerating bones and joints through
the use of biomaterials, growth factors and stem cells, along with
an investigation of the interactions between biomaterials, bone
cells, growth factors and added stem cells and how together
skeletal tissues can be optimised, this book serves to highlight
the importance of biomaterials composition, surface topography,
architectural and mechanical properties in providing support for
tissue regeneration. Maximizing reader insights into the importance
of the interplay of these attributes with bone cells (osteoblasts,
osteocytes and osteoclasts) and cartilage cells (chondrocytes),
this book also provides a detailed reference as to how key
signalling pathways are activated. The contribution of growth
factors to drive tissue regeneration and stem cell recruitment is
discussed along with a review the potential and challenges of adult
or embryonic mesenchymal stem cells to further enhance the
formation of new bone and cartilage tissues. This book serves to
demonstrate the interconnectedness of biomaterials, bone/cartilage
cells, growth factors and stem cells in determining the
regenerative process and thus the clinical outcome.
