Repair and regeneration of human tissues and organs using biomaterials, cells, and/or
growth factors is a great challenge for tissue engineers and surgeons. The convergence of …

The anterior cruciate ligament is one of the six ligaments in the human knee joint that
provides stability during articulations. It is relatively prone to acute and chronic injuries as …

Biodegradable core/shell structured poly (L-lactide) acid (PLLA)/chitosan (CS) nanofibers
were fabricated by coaxial electrospinning. PLLA and CS were dissolved in …

Rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most common ligamentous
injuries of the knee. Limitations of allografts and autografts in ACL reconstruction as well as …

Repair and regeneration of human tissues and organs using biomaterials, cells and/or
growth factors is the ultimate goal of tissue engineers. One of the grand challenges in this …

The interplay between cells and materials is a fundamental topic in biomaterial-based tissue
regeneration. One of the principles for biomaterial development in tendon regeneration is to …

The importance of phosphorus in polymer chemistry is illustrated by the growth of the broad
field of polyphosphazene science. Several hundred high polymers are now known with a …

Cyclic and polyphosphazenes are extremely interesting and versatile substrates
characterized by the presence of-P= N-repeating units. The chlorine atoms on the P atoms in …

Scaffold architecture, surface topography, biochemical and mechanical cues have been
shown to significantly improve cellular events and in vivo tissue regeneration. Specifically …

Polymers in which phosphorus is an integral part of the main chain, including
polyphosphazenes and polyphosphoesters, have been widely investigated in recent years …
