Abstract:
Repair of large bone defects remains a clinical challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Current treatment strategies such as autograft and allograft are limited by the amount of available tissue in the case of the former, and failure of revascularization effecting engraftment in the case of the latter. Tissue engineering offers an alternative approach to this challenging clinical problem. The general principle of tissue engineering for bone regeneration prescribes delivery of osteoinductive factors to induce an endogenous response within the host to repair a defect that will not normally heal.

Abstract:
Knee injuries are a major cause of orthopedic disabilities in the United States. Current reconstruction techniques for torn anterior cruciate ligaments (ACL) require extensive surgery and long physical rehabilitation times since the tissue does not heal upon injury. A common ACL injury occurs where the gap at the rupture site remains open after injury and fails to heal, which can lead to premature osteoarthritis and disability. Hydrogels are a popular material used for tissue engineering applications due to their ability to retain water and good biocompatibility. Previous work has shown tha

Abstract:
The interface between tendon/ligament and bone tissue is a complex transition of biochemical, cellular, and mechanical properties. Investigating computational and tissue engineering models that imitate aspects of this interface may supply critical design parameters for designing future tissue replacements to promote increased biochemical and mechanical integration between tendon/ligament and bone. Strategies for modeling this tissue have typically focused on the development of heterogeneous structures to create gradients or multiphasic materials that mimic aspects of the transition. However, f

Abstract:
Biodegradable hydrogels have become very promising materials for a number of biomedical applications, including tissue engineering and drug delivery. For optimal tissue engineering design, the mechanical properties of hydrogels should match those of native tissues as closely as possible because these properties are known to affect the behavior and function of cells seeded in the hydrogels. At the same time, high water-contents, large mesh sizes and well-tuned degradation rates are favorable for the controlled release of growth factors and for adequate transport of nutrients through the hydroge

Abstract:
[Truncated abstract] The synthetic hydrogel poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) has been used as a biocompatible biomaterial in ocular devices, such as soft contact lenses, intraocular lenses and an artificial cornea. Due to its favourable properties as an already established (but non-biodegradable) biomaterial, PHEMA is an interesting candidate for use as a material for scaffolds in tissue engineering. A tenant of tissue engineering scaffolds is obtaining the appropriate porous morphology to allow for successful cellular attachment and support. PHEMA hydrogels exhibit varied morphologic

Abstract:
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)<br>Hydrogels prepared from photopolymerization have been widely used in many biomedical applications. Ultraviolet (200-400 nm) or visible (400-800 nm) light can interact with light-sensitive compounds called photoinitiators to form radical species that trigger photopolylmerization. Since UV light has potential to cause cell damage, visible light-mediated photopolymerization has attracted much attention. The conventional method to fabricate hydrogels under visible light exposure requires usage of co-initiator triethanolamine (TEA) at hig

Abstract:
Bone is a highly organised and specialised connective tissue with natural ability to self-heal and regain functionality. This capacity is, however, exposed to a great number of threats that can critically damage bone’s health and trigger the need for bone substitutes. The present thesis aimed at the production of new bone scaffolds for tissue regeneration using the Inverted Colloidal Crystal (ICC) structure as model system. ICCs are 3D structures, resultant from Colloidal Crystals (CC) inverse replication, that exhibit uniform pore size, interconnected network and whose architectural des

Abstract:
Tissue engineering arises from the need to regenerate organs and tissues, requiring the development of scaffolds, which can provide an optimum environment for tissue growth. In this work, chitosan with different molecular weights was used to develop biodegradable 3D inverted colloidal crystals (ICC) structures for bone regeneration, exhibiting uniform pore size and interconnected network. Moreover, in vitro tests were conducted by studying the influence of the molecular weight in the degradation kinetics and mechanical properties. The production of ICC included four major stages: fabrication
