“…Regenerative medicine, according to the National Institute of Health (NIH), is a broad field which involves “intervention to improve the self-healing capacity of the human body by use of either scaffolding materials, biologically active molecules and cellular components”, or some combination of these components. There are many approaches within regenerative medicine, including, but not limited to: genetic engineering and subsequent implantation of cells (Lee et al, 2012), bottom-up design and synthesis of tissue constructs (Kwon et al, 2014), construction of native decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) (Wagner et al, 2014), and regenerative methods (Klar et al, 2014), Figure 1 . Tissue engineering is a large subfield of regenerative medicine which refers to a combinatorial approach of the aforementioned components into a functional tissue or “unit” of tissue in vitro.…”
