Book excerpt: This book summarizes the NATO Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) on “Nanoengineered Systems for Regenerative Medicine” that was organized under the auspices of the NATO Security through Science Program. I would like to thank NATO for supporting this workshop via a grant to the co-directors. The objective of ARW was to explore the various facets of regenerative me- cine and to highlight role of the “the nano-length scale” and “nano-scale systems” in defining and controlling cell and tissue environments. The development of novel tissue regenerative strategies require the integration of new insights emerging from studies of cell-matrix interactions, cellular signalling processes, developmental and systems biology, into biomaterials design, via a systems approach. The chapters in the book, written by the leading experts in their respective disciplines, cover a wide spectrum of topics ranging from stem cell biology, developmental biology, ce- matrix interactions, and matrix biology to surface science, materials processing and drug delivery. We hope the contents of the book will provoke the readership into developing regenerative medicine paradigms that combine these facets into cli- cally translatable solutions. This NATO meeting would not have been successful without the timely help of Dr. Ulrike Shastri, Sanjeet Rangarajan and Ms. Sabine Benner, who assisted in the organization and implementation of various elements of this meeting. Thanks are also due Dr. Fausto Pedrazzini and Ms. Alison Trapp at NATO HQ (Brussels, Belgium). The commitment and persistence of Ms.

Book excerpt: Regenerative medicine is an interdisciplinary field which has advanced with the use of biotechnologies related to biomaterials, growth factors, and stem cells to replace or restore damaged cells, tissues, and organs. Among various therapeutic approaches, cell-based therapy is most challenging and exciting for both scientists and clinicians pursuing regenerative medicine. Specifically, stem cells, including mesenchymal stem cells and adipose-derived stem cells, are promising candidate cell types for cell-based therapy because they can differentiate into multiple cell types for tissue regeneration and stimulate other cells through neovascularization or paracrine signaling. Also, for effective treatment using stem cells, the tissue engineered constructs, such as bioactive degradable scaffolds, that provide the physical and chemical cues to guide their differentiation are incorporated with stem cells before implantation. Also, it was previously demonstrated that tissue-engineered matrices can promote tubulogenesis and differentiation of stem cells to vascular cell phenotypes. Hence, during tissue regeneration after stem cell therapy, there are numerous factors that need to be monitored. As a result, imaging-based stem cell tracking is essential to evaluate the distribution of stem cells as well as to monitor proliferation, differentiation, and interaction with the microenvironment. Therefore, there is a need for a stem cell imaging technique that is not only noninvasive, sensitive, and easy to operate, but also capable of quantitatively assessing stem cell behaviors in the long term with high spatial resolution. Therefore, the overall goal of this research is to demonstrate a novel imaging method capable of continuous in vitro assessment of stem cells as prepared with tissue engineered constructs and noninvasive longitudinal in vivo monitoring of stem cell behaviors and tissue regeneration after stem cell implantation. In order to accomplish this, gold nanoparticles are demonstrated as photoacoustic imaging contrasts to label stem cells. In addition, ultrasound and photoacoustic imaging was utilized to monitor stem cells and neovascularization in the injured rat tissue. Therefore, using these methods, tissue regeneration can be promoted and noninvasively monitored, resulting in a better understanding of the tissue repair mechanisms following tissue injury.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineered Biomaterials: Progress and Prospects presents state-of-the-art developments in the area of biomaterials research exemplified by experts in the fields of tissue engineering, wound healing, bio-diagnostics, novel therapeutics and advanced drug delivery systems.It provides a comprehensive account of preparation, characterisation, properties, processing, biological and clinical evaluation of a large variety of materials for specific biomedical applications. Basic concepts related to wound healing, tissue engineering and drug delivery systems, and the principal role played by macro, micro and nano scaled structures in biomaterials are presented in a clear manner. Developments in the area of conventional and advanced wound care strategies, materials for periodontal therapeutics, in-situ gelling tissue adhesives, biodegradable composites etc are illustrated in a lucid manner. Advanced processing techniques explored for the fabrication of micro-needles for vaccine delivery, 3D printing of personalized pharmaceuticals, bio-resorbable coatings, metallosurfactants and surface engineering of nanosystems are depicted in a straightforward and reasonable way.This book also discusses various advanced therapeutic and diagnostic systems such as magnetic nanoparticle based hyperthermia and their surface functionalization techniques. Lipid-based nano delivery systems for psoriasis, irritable bowel syndrome and pain management, polyrotaxane polymers, wearable devices for sensing etc are also depicted in this book. The contents are designed in a manner that will be highly suited for academic researchers, clinicians and industrialists who wish to explore in the versatile field of biomaterials as it contains a wealth of valuable information that will be equally useful to both beginners as well as established researchers.

Book excerpt: The Tissue Engineering approach has major advantages over traditional organ transplantation and circumvents the problem of organ shortage. Tissues that closely match the patient’s needs can be reconstructed from readily available biopsies and subsequently be implanted with minimal or no immunogenicity. This eventually conquers several limitations encountered in tissue transplantation approaches. This book serves as a good starting point for anyone interested in the application of Tissue Engineering. It offers a colorful mix of topics, which explain the obstacles and possible solutions for TE applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regenerative medicine is broadly defined as the repair or replacement of damaged cells, tissues and organs. It is a multidisciplinary effort in which technologies derive from the fields of cell, developmental and molecular biology; chemical and material sciences (i.e. nanotechnology); engineering; surgery; transplantation; immunology; molecular genetics; physiology; and pharmacology. As regenerative medicine technologies continue to evolve and expand across the boundaries of numerous scientific disciplines, they remain at the forefront of the translational research frontier with the potential to radically alter the treatment of a wide variety of disease and dysfunction. This book will draw attention to the critical role that pharmacological sciences will undeniably play in the advancement of these treatments. This book is invaluable for advanced students, postdoctoral fellows, researchers new to the field of regenerative medicine/tissue engineering, and experienced investigators looking for new research avenues. The first state-of-the-art book in this rapidly evolving field of research.
