The generation of tridimensional tissues, assembled from
scaffolding materials populated with biologically functional cells,
is the great challenge and hope of tissue bioengineering and
regenerative medicine. The generation of biomaterials capable of
harnessing the immune system has been particularly successful. This
book provides a comprehensive view of how immune cells can be
manipulated to suppresses inflammation, deliver vaccines, fight
cancer cells, promote tissue regeneration or inhibit blood clotting
and bacterial infections by functionally engineered biomaterials.
However, long-lived polymers, such as those employed in orthopedic
surgery or vascular stents, can often induce an immune reaction to
their basic components. As a result, this book is also an important
step towards coming to understand how to manipulate biomaterials to
optimize their beneficial effects and downplay detrimental immune
responses.
