A unique, comprehensive reference that integrates the molecular,
cellular, physiological, pathological, and engineering aspects of
regenerative processes
Bioregenerative engineering is an emerging discipline based on
applying engineering principles and technologies to regenerative
medicine. It induces, modulates, enhances, and/or controls
regenerative processes by using engineering approaches to improve
the restoration of the structure and function of disordered or lost
molecules, cells, tissues, and organs. This reference
systematically summarizes bioregenerative engineering principles,
technologies, and current research to help scientists understand
biological regeneration and design new therapeutic strategies.
Succinct and well-organized with a detailed table of contents to
help readers pinpoint information, this reference:
* Provides the fundamental theory and principles of molecular,
cellular, and tissue regenerative engineering concurrently with
experimental approaches
* Presents the foundations of bioregenerative engineering,
encompassing the molecular basis, the regulatory mechanism of
regeneration, and the developmental aspects
* Combines molecular and cell biology with potential
applications
* Addresses experimental design, methods, and modeling at the
molecular/cellular/tissue levels
* Covers the general mechanisms and technologies of bioregenerative
engineering, as well as its application to the treatment of human
disorders
* Discusses the engineering tests and therapies for major organ
systems
Presenting an in-depth introduction to the biological and
engineering aspects of the field and an up-to-date overview of
current research, this is a one-of-a-kind resource for scientific
researchers and medical practitioners, as well as for graduate and
undergraduate students in biomedical engineering, bioengineering,
chemical engineering, molecular biology, and cell biology.
