Cells, scaffolds and growth factors are three main components of a tissue-engineered construct. Collagen type I, a major protein of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in mammals, is a suitable scaffold material for regeneration. Another important constituent of the ECM, hyaluronic acid (hyaluronan, HA),
This is an edited book containing nine papers. Of these four (Papers 2, 3, 5, 7) are on nanoparticles, and dendrimers, six (Papers 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7) on drug and gene delivery, one on magnetic nanowires, one on sensing, one on thermodynamics of DNA complexes and one on nanotoxicology. Thus the main e
