摘要: The emergence of regenerative medicine has resulted in a novel interdisciplinary field that focuses on repair, replacement, and regeneration diseased or damaged tissues organs. As one the most important strategies medicine, tissue engineering (which typically combines biodegradable scaffolds, (stem) cells, bioactive signals such as growth factors) created new possibilities to produce implantable ex vivo. This chapter recent advances research micro- nanospheres aiming at improvement functionality clinical efficacy traditional scaffolds for soft hard engineering. Depending their origin, polymeric can be classified either natural synthetic polymers, both which have specific pros cons.
