The Osteogenic Role of Biomaterials Combined with Human-Derived Dental Stem Cells in Bone Tissue Regeneration
AbstractThe use of stem cells in regenerative medicine had great potential for clinical applications. However, cell delivery strategies have critical importance in stimulating the differentiation of stem cells and enhancing their potential to regenerate damaged tissues. Different strategies have been used to investigate the osteogenic potential of dental stem cells in conjunction with biomaterials throughin vitro andin vivo studies. Osteogenesis has a broad implication in regenerative medicine, particularly for maxillofacial defects. This review summarizes some of the most recent developments in the field of tissue enginee...

Remodeling and Restraining Lung Tissue Damage Through the Regulation of Respiratory Immune Responses
AbstractTissue damage caused by various stimuli under certain conditions, such as biological and environmental cues, can actively induce systemic and/or local immune responses. Therefore, understanding the immunological perspective would be critical to not only regulating homeostasis of organs and tissues but also to restrict and remodel their damage. Lungs serve as one of the key immunological organs, and thus, in the present article, we focus on the innate and adaptive immune systems involved in remodeling and engineering lung tissue. Innate immune cells are known to react immediately to damage. Macrophages, one of the m...

Silica-Based Advanced Nanoparticles For Treating Ischemic Disease
AbstractRecently, various attempts have been made to apply diverse types of nanoparticles in biotechnology. Silica nanoparticles (SNPs) have been highlighted and studied for their selective accumulation in diseased parts, strong physical and chemical stability, and low cytotoxicity. SNPs, in particular, are very suitable for use in drug delivery and bioimaging, and have been sought as a treatment for ischemic diseases. In addition, mesoporous silica nanoparticles have been confirmed to efficiently deliver various types of drugs owing to their porous structure. Moreover, there have been innovative attempts to treat ischemic...
