Abstract:
Specific objective: Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) aims to regenerate the lost attachment apparatus caused by periodontal disease through the use of a barrier membrane. For the GTR procedures to be successful, barrier membranes are required to be present at the surgical site for an extended period of time (weeks to months). Synthetic membranes have the advantage of prolonged presence in a wound site; however, they do not actively contribute to wound healing. Biologic membranes are recognized by the host tissue and participate in wound healing but have the disadvantage of early resorption. Th

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Oesophageal Atresia (OA) is a congenital defect that occurs during gestation and prevents the correct oesophagus development in 1 every 3000-4500 ¬births. Tissue Engineering could represent a therapeutic alternative for the most severe cases, where oesophageal replacement becomes necessary. Decellularised matrices are the ideal option because they are derived from tissue-specific extracellular-matrix (ECM) after removing all the cells therefore avoiding the risk of incompatibility and rejection. However, appropriate preservation may significantly affect scaffold behaviour

En aquesta Tesi, un nou biomaterial de disseny composat per seqüències peptídiques repetitives i amfifíliques, que per autoensamblatge forma xarxes de nanofibres (i hidrogels), AcN-RADARADARADARADA-CONH2, s´ha utilitzat com a anàleg de la matriu extracel·lular per al manteniment, proliferació i diferenciació cel·lular. Aquest pèptid s'ha funcionalititzat amb motius biològicament actius procedents de proteïnes de la matriu extracel·lular incloent laminina-1 i colàgen IV. El scaffold peptídic autoensamblant RAD16-I i els seus derivats biològicament actius s´han caracteritzat i provat utilitzant

Abstract:
Production of brand new protein-based materials with precise control over the amino acid sequences at single residue level has been made possible by genetic engineering, through which artificial genes can be developed that encode protein-based materials with desired features. As an example, silk-elastinlike protein polymers (SELPs), composed of tandem repeats of amino acid sequence motifs from Bombyx mori (silkworm) silk and mammalian elastin, have been produced in this approach. SELPs have been studied extensively in the past two decades, however, the fundamental mechanism governing the self-

Abstract:
L’ingegneria dei tessuti biologici mira a creare tessuti e organi sostituti, alternativi ai tradizionali trapianti. In questi termini, un biomateriale che funga da supporto (scaffold) alle cellule riveste un ruolo cruciale nel guidarne l’adesione e la crescita per la produzione di nuovo tessuto. Polimeri naturali quali gli idrogel hanno ricevuto particolare attenzione negli ultimi anni a causa della loro maggiore similarità strutturale alla matrice extracellulare. Molti metodi di fabbricazione di scaffold prevedono che le cellule siano seminate in superficie, a seguito alla generazione della s
