Musculoskeletal tissue engineering and regenerative medicine are crucial fields that focus on the interactions between cells and biomaterials in the repair and regeneration of damaged musculoskeletal tissues. This intricate interplay involves a multitude of concepts, including the mechanisms and mechanobiology of cell-material interactions, the structure-function properties of these interactions, and the emerging technologies that underpin tissue-engineered scaffolding. Furthermore, the book delves into the realm of cell engineering and cell-based therapies, exploring the properties of growth factors and drugs, as well as the importance of vascularization and immunomodulation in musculoskeletal regeneration. Given the significant impact of musculoskeletal disorders and injuries on muscles, bones, and joints, developing innovative treatment strategies is of paramount importance. These strategies should aim to delay or repair associated diseases, while also promoting optimal long-term health for patients. By understanding the complex dynamics between cells and biomaterials, researchers and clinicians can work towards developing new and effective therapies that improve the quality of life for individuals affected by musculoskeletal conditions.
