Tissue engineering is an emerging field in medical arena which combines the knowledge of science and engineering to accomplish the increasing demands to aid the damaged tissues or even a whole organ. With time various methods of tissue engineering such as traditional scaffold method ,advanced 3D bioprinting technology and the use of bio ink (the extracellular matrix materials) have become popular at various medical levels. Scaffold is a 3D structure which results in tissue formation by providing space for cells to attach, to proliferate in various directions & by secreting extracellular matrix. Also, the recent development is the use of decellularised extracellular material i.e. dECM as bio-ink to generate vascular organs like Kidney & Heart. Textiles have been playing an indispensable role in tissue engineering as it provide superior methods over other ways to fabricate scaffold. The use of smart biomaterial based scaffolds costs less and is more effective which gives advantage to tailor the tissues according to individual's tissue structure . This paper reviews the application of textiles technology in tissue engineering, various approaches of tissue engineering from traditional to the currently used approach , recent advances and its indications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
