Bioactive Materials for Bone Regeneration summarizes research advances on the topic, including sections on the characteristics of biomaterial-induced microenvironments, interactions of bioactive materials with stem cells and tissues, and the immunomodulatory microenvironment induced by biomaterials and its effects on osteogenesis. As the regeneration of large-size bone tissue defects represents a significant clinical challenge, this book demonstrates how new biomaterials with specific chemical and physical characteristics may interact with the host and create a unique micro-environment that actively facilitates stem cell differentiation along a specific lineage, thus stimulating tissue regeneration. Provides readers with the latest research developments in the fabrication techniques of bioactive materials for tissue regeneration and tissue engineering applicationsPresents the latest research advancements on how bioactive materials interact with the host and induce micro-environments for stem cell differentiation, immunomodulation and tissue regenerationCovers the methods, strategies, principle and mechanisms on constructing beneficial biomaterial microenvironments INDICE: 1. Introduction 2. Bioactive materials characteristics, surface, interface and their biological effects on osteogenesis 3. Biomaterial-induced microenvironment and host reaction in bone regeneration 4. Biomaterial-induced microenvironment and immunomodulation in bone regeneration 5. Future perspectives
