Biomaterials with the ability to self-heal and recover their structural integrity offer many
advantages for applications in biomedicine. The past decade has witnessed the rapid …

Abstract 3D printing alias additive manufacturing can transform 3D virtual models created by
computer-aided design (CAD) into physical 3D objects in a layer-by-layer manner …

Despite tremendous advances in the field of regenerative medicine, it still remains
challenging to repair the osteochondral interface and full-thickness articular cartilage …

Once damaged, articular cartilage has a limited potential to repair. Clinically, a repair tissue
is formed, yet, it is often mechanically inferior fibrocartilage. The use of monolayer expanded …

Designing of biologically active scaffolds with optimal characteristics is one of the key factors
for successful tissue engineering. Recently, hydrogels have received a considerable interest …

Gelatin‐methacrylamide (gelMA) hydrogels are shown to support chondrocyte viability and
differentiation and give wide ranging mechanical properties depending on several cross …

Hydrogels, due to their unique biocompatibility, flexible methods of synthesis, range of
constituents, and desirable physical characteristics, have been the material of choice for …

This section provides definitions of networks and hydrogels terms and describes the
chemical preparation of hydrogels. A number of physicochemical methods of …

In this review, we explore different approaches for introducing bioactivity into poly (ethylene
glycol)(PEG) hydrogels. Hydrogels are excellent scaffolding materials for repairing and …

Extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex cellular environment consisting of proteins,
proteoglycans, and other soluble molecules. ECM provides structural support to mammalian …
