Blood Purification Materials Changsheng Zhao Sichuan University, China

Phosphate and Borate Bioactive Glasses Akiko Obata Nagoya Institute of Technology, Japan | Delia S Brauer Friedrich Schiller University Jena, Germany | Toshihiro Kasuga Nagoya Institute of Technology, Japan Silicate glasses commonly used in biomedical engineering applications, but phosphate and borate glasses are attracting more and more interest as they open up potential routes for new therapeutic applications. This book focuses on these emerging materials. Tissue-inducing Biomaterials Xiangdong Zhu National Engineering Research Center for Biomaterials, Sichuan University, China | Xingdong Zhang National Engineering Research Center for Biomaterials, Sichuan University, China Overseen by a pioneer of the field, this is the first book focussed on tissue-inducing biomaterials. Covering the history, basic science, mechanisms and applications to key clinical applications such as soft and hard tissue inducing biomaterials e.g. cartilage and bone, and the central nervous system, this book is a must-have for those in the biomaterials science field. Material-based Mechanobiology Jun Nakanishi National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), Japan | Koichiro Uto National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), Japan This book focuses on recent progress in mechanobiology from the materials science perspective, encompassing innovative material designs for force measurements and actuation to resolve dynamic mechanobiology and mechanoarchitectonics, by better mimicking physiologically relevant and time-evolving cellular mechanical environments. It also shows the marriage between cutting-edge materials science which enable spatiotemporal manipulation of material and cell dynamics in multi- dimensions and molecular biological techniques such as genome editing and next generation sequencing for cell fate/motility engineering and disease modelling, with the aim of providing valuable insights into the latest technological advances and discoveries in areas such as stem cell, fibroblast, heart, tumour, and epithelial mechanobiology.

Treating diseases involving the kidney, liver and immune systems often requires a good grasp of blood purifying technologies, specifically membranes and adsorbents. This is the first book to elucidate the role of biomaterials in blood purification technologies.

Extracellular Vesicles Applications to Regenerative Medicine, Therapeutics and Diagnostics Wojciech Chrzanowski University of Sydney, Australia | Chwee Teck Lim National University of Singapore, Singapore | Sally Yunsun Kim Imperial College London, UK Extracellular and biofluids vesicles (EVs) are highly specialised yet ubiquitous nanoscale messengers secreted by cells. With the development of stem cell engineering, EVs promise to deliver next generation tools in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering, as well as in diagnostics. A vibrant and promising field, this book provides the first resource to the field. Injectable Hydrogels for 3D Bioprinting Insup Noh Seoul National University of Science and Technology, South Korea | Xiumei Wang Tsinghua University, China | Sandra van Vlierberghe Ghent University, Belgium Edited by three leaders in the field, users of this book will learn about different classes of hydrogels, properties and synthetic techniques to produce bioinks. A section devoted to the key processing and design challenges at the hydrogel/3D bioprinting/ tissue interface is also covered. The final section of the book closes with pertinent clinical applications. Liposomes Drug and Gene Delivery Systems Arabinda Chaudhuri Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Kolkata, India Liposomal drug and gene delivery systems have found success in clinical applications due to their biodegradable, biocompatible, non-toxic, and non-immunogenic nature. To underscore their importance in healthcare, in the fight against SARS-CoV-2 virus, lipid-based nanoparticular formulations of mRNA and DNA based vaccines have been developed via academic and industry collaboration. Whilst there are many review articles, this book brings together information and explains the complex science in an accessible manner. Written for an interdisciplinary audience, this book is an up-to- date resource for this important and vibrant research field.
