Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Materials for Bone Disorders is written by a cross-disciplinary team of research scientists, engineers, and clinicians and bridges the gap between materials science and bone disorders, providing integrated coverage of biomaterials and their applications. The bioceramics, biopolymers, composites, and metallic materials used in the treatment of bone disorders are introduced, as are their interactions with cells, biomolecules, and body tissues. The main types of bone disorder and disease are covered including osteoporosis, spinal injury, load bearing joint diseases, bone cancer, and forms of cranio-maxillofacial disorders. Bone disorders are common across all ages. Various forms of bone disorders can change the lifestyle of otherwise normal and healthy people. With the development of novel materials, many forms of bone disorders are becoming manageable, allowing people to lead a fairly normal life. Specific consideration is given to areas where recent advances are enabling new treatments, such as the use of resorbable ceramics in bone tissue engineering and drug delivery, newer polymer-based implants in load-bearing contexts, and engineering biomaterials surfaces including modifying surface chemistry. Ethical and regulatory issues are also explored.

Book Applications of Human Bone Materials and Synthesized Biomaterials for Bone related Tissue Engineering

Download or read book Applications of Human Bone Materials and Synthesized Biomaterials for Bone related Tissue Engineering written by Qing Yu and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Engineered bone grafting has been considered as one of the alternative methods for bone regeneration in both fundamental research and clinical applications to address bone disorders. Bone graft materials, autologous bone, allogeneic bone and synthetic polymer scaffolds have been commonly utilized surgically as substrates for bone grafting. In this dissertation, periosteum, a thin membrane in which progenitor cells can develop into osteoblasts to regenerate bone tissue, has been applied in three different studies to determine its capability to induce new bone formation. In the first study, human periosteum-wrapped bone allografts were implanted subcutaneously in athymic mice followed by sample harvest and gene expression analysis and histological assessment. The second study developed a tissue-engineering approach to generate a functional tendon-to-bone enthesis. In this instance, the constructs were fabricated from human periosteum-wrapped allograft bone and tenocyte- and chondrocyte-seeded biomaterials. The constructs were then implanted with and without mechanical force by either tethering them to the trapezius and gluteus maximus muscles of athymic mice or not tethering them at all. Biomechanical, histological, and histochemical properties of these tendon-to-bone enthesis models were analyzed following their implantation. The third study was designed to determine the possible effects of bromine- or silicon-functionalized poly(lactic acid) (Si-PLA) scaffolds on skeletal development. To examine initially the cytotoxicity of bromine on periosteal cells, a PrestoBlue® assay was performed on human periosteal cell-seeded brominated PLA scaffolds over a 21-day time period. With application of histological and gene expression analysis, new bone formation and resorption were detected in human-periosteum allografts implanted for different time periods. Correlated histological and gene data showed that periosteum has the capability of inducing bone regeneration in allografts and in tendon-to-bone enthesis models. Tissue-engineered enthesis models fabricated with periosteum-allograft and chondrocyte- and tenocyte-seeded scaffolds provide a novel method for healing enthesis defects in regenerative medicine. In addition, results from bromine cytotoxicity studies of human periosteal cells imply subsequent Si-PLA experiments with minimal numbers of bromine residues on the backbone of PLA. These tissue engineering investigations suggest that both allograft bone and biosynthetic polymers have great potential in regenerative medicine applications for bone.

Book Smart Biomaterials

Download or read book Smart Biomaterials written by Mitsuhiro Ebara and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-05-28 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides comprehensive coverage of smart biomaterials and their potential applications, a field that is developing at a very rapid pace. Because smart biomaterials are an emerging class of biomaterials that respond to small changes in external stimuli with large discontinuous changes in their physical properties, they have been designed to act as an “on–off” switch for, among others, bio separation, immunoanalysis, drug delivery technologies, gene therapy, diagnostics, bio sensors and artificial muscles. After an introduction to the topic and the history of smart biomaterials, the author gives the reader an in-depth look at the properties, mechanics, and characterization of smart biomaterials including hydrogels, particles, assemblies, surfaces, fibers and conjugates. Information on the wide range of applications for these materials follows, including drug delivery, tissue engineering, diagnostics, biosensors, bio separation and actuators. In addition, recent advances in shape memory biomaterials as active components of medical devices are also presented.

Book Handbook of Bioceramics and Biocomposites

Download or read book Handbook of Bioceramics and Biocomposites written by Iulian Vasile Antoniac and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook describes several current trends in the development of bioceramics and biocomposites for clinical use in the repair, remodelling, and regeneration of bone tissue. Comprehensive coverage of these materials allows fundamental aspects of the science and engineering to be seen in close relation to the clinical performance of dental and orthopaedic implants. Bioceramics and biocomposites appear to be the most dynamic area of materials development for both tissue engineering and implantable medical devices. Almost all medical specialties will continue to benefit from these developments, but especially dentistry and orthopaedics. In this Handbook, leading researchers describe the use of bionanomaterials to create new functionalities when interfaced with biological molecules or structures. Also described are technologies for bioceramics and biocomposites processing in order to fabricate medical devices for clinical use. Another important section of the book is dedicated to tissue regeneration with development of new matrices. A targeted or personalized treatment device reduces drug consumption and treatment expenses, resulting in benefits to the patient and cost reductions for public health systems. This authoritative reference on the state-of-the-art in the development and use of bioceramics and biocomposites can also serve as the basis of instructional course lectures for audiences ranging from advanced undergraduate students to post-graduates in materials science and engineering and biomedical engineering.
