Nanotechnology for tissue engineering: Need, techniques and applications

Tissue engineering is very fast growing scientific area in this era which is used to create, repair, and/or replace cells, tissues and organs by using cell and/or combinations of cells with biomaterials and/or biologically active molecules and it helps to produce materials which very much resembles to body's native tissue/tissues. From tissue engineering current therapies got revolutionised and life quality of several millions patient got improved. Tissue engineering is the connecting discipline between engineering materials science, medicine and biology. In typical tissue engineering cells are seeded on biomimicked scaffold providing adhesive surfaces, then cells deposit their own protein to make them more biocompatible, but unable to vascularise properly, lack of functional cells, low mechanical strength of engineered cells, not immunologically compatible with host and Nutrient limitation are a classical issue in the field of tissue and tissue engineering. Through the article we will understand the technology involved, need and application of nanobiotechnology based tissue engineering.
