Piezoelectric smart biomaterials for bone and cartilage tissue engineering

Piezoelectric smart biomaterials for bone and cartilage tissue engineering

Abstract Tissues like bone and cartilage are remodeled dynamically for their functional requirements by signaling pathways. The signals are controlled by the cells and extracellular matrix and transmitted through an electrical and chemical synapse. Scaffold-based tissue engineering therapies largely...
