Applications of Small Molecules in Muscle Tissue Engineering
Introduction: Skeletal muscles account for about 40% of the total body weight. Every year, hundreds of people lose at least part of their muscle tissue due to illness, war, and accidents. This can lead to disruption of activities such as breathing, movement, and social life. To this end, various therapeutic strategies such as medication therapy, cell therapy and tissue transplantation have been...
متن کاملEngineering Cardiac Muscle Tissue
The origin of the term tissue engineering is not clear, but a 1985 proposal of Y.C. Fung to the National Science Foundation of the United States for a Center for the Engineering of Living Tissues and 2 conferences organized by the National Science Foundation in 1987 and 1988 are generally accepted as the origin of this lively and rapidly growing research field (The Emergence of Tissue Engineeri...
متن کاملMuscle tissue changes with aging.
Sarcopenia is characterized by a progressive generalized decrease of skeletal muscle mass, strength and function with aging. Recently, the genetic determination has been associated with muscle mass and muscle strength in elderly. These two phenotypes of risk are the most commonly recognized and studied for sarcopenia, with heritability ranging from 30 to 85% for muscle strength and 45-90% for m...
متن کاملTissue Engineering in Dentistery
Introduction Perforation of maxillary sinus mucous membrane is of the most prevalent complication during open sinus lift surgery. Moreover, such complication can usually be managed by an absorbable membrane. As far as absorbable membranes are concerned, decellularized maxillary sinus mucous membranes, which is an extracellular matrix, can be used as a biologic scaffold and insulating membrane ...
متن کاملGrowth Factors for Skeletal Muscle Tissue Engineering.
Tissue-engineered skeletal muscle holds promise as a source of graft tissue for repair of volumetric muscle loss and as a model system for pharmaceutical testing. To reach this potential, engineered tissues must advance past the neonatal phenotype that characterizes the current state of the art. In this review, we describe native skeletal muscle development and identify important growth factors...
