Nanotechnologists have become involved in regenerative medicine via creation of
biomaterials and nanostructures with potential clinical implications. Their aim
is to develop systems that can mimic, reinforce or even create in vivo tissue
repair strategies. In fact, in the last decade, important advances in the field
of tissue engineering, cell therapy and cell delivery have already been achieved.
In this review, we will delve into the latest research advances and discuss
whether cell and/or tissue repair devices are a possibility. Focusing on the
application of nanotechnology in tissue engineering research, this review
highlights recent advances in the application of nano-engineered scaffolds
designed to replace or restore the followed tissues: (i) skin; (ii) cartilage;
(iii) bone; (iv) nerve; and (v) cardiac.
