Abstract
Nanoparticles have numerous applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine involving DNA transfection, cell patterning, viral transduction, gene delivery, improvement of mechanical, electrical, and biological properties of scaffolds (Hasan et al., Int J Nanomed 13:5637–5655, 2018), effective delivery of biomolecule, tracking of cell in vivo, as well as stem-cell therapy (Hosseini, Principles of regenerative medicine, Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2019). The utilization of the correct kind of nanoparticles in the tissue engineering can upgrade the electrical, mechanical, and biological characteristics of scaffolds to the greater extent and can perform several other functions based on different applications (Hasan et al., Int J Nanomed 13:5637–5655, 2018). Moreover, utilization of nanofabrication methods has numerous advantages in tissue engineering. The formation of nanopatterns, nanofibers, as well as controlled release of nanoparticles by using nanotechnology introduces many applications in tissue engineering including imitating local tissues as biomaterials to be built is of the size of nanometer, for example, cardiovascular tissue, bone marrow, extracellular liquids, and so on (Chung et al., Expert Opin Drug Discov 2(12):1653–1668, 2007). This chapter aims to throw light on the applications of nanomaterials in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, highlighting the most promising and widely used nanomaterials used for the purpose.
