Creation and Characterization of Several Polymer/Conductive Element Composite Scaffolds for Skeletal Muscle Tissue Engineering
After skeletal muscle damage, satellite cells move towards the injured area to assist in regeneration. However, these cells are rare as their numbers depend on the age and composition of the injured muscle. This regeneration method often results in scar tissue formation along with loss of function....
