Background and Introduction
The Use of Hydrogels in Tissue Engineering Implant Persistence – Biodegradability Surgical Issues – Injectable Hydrogels Cell Attachment – Peptide Enhanced Hydrogels
Outlook
Treatments for Organ Failure
Surgical Reconstruction Can result in long-term
problems Ineffective
Use of mechanical organ substitutes Cannot replace all
functions of the diseased organ
Usually cannot halt patient deterioration
Langer, R. P.; Vacanti, J. P. Science, 1993, 260, 920
Tissue Engineering
A multidisciplinary field aimed at “develop[ing] biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue function”
Can involve transplantation of cells in artificial matrices
Could lead to new therapies
Langer, R. P.; Vacanti, J. P. Science, 1993, 260, 920
Matrix Based Cell Transplantation
Matrix purposes Maintain structural
integrity of the implant Guide the growth of new
tissue Allow for the invasion of
blood vessels Provide necessary
mechanical forces to cells

Lee, K. Y.; Mooney, D. J. Chem. Rev., 2001, 101, 1869
Why Polymers?
Less likely than metals to harm surrounding tissue
Useful for more varied types of tissue Easier to seed cells into polymers than into
other types of materials More chemical diversity
Peppas, N. A.; Langer, R. Science, 1994, 263, 1715
Hydrogels
Hydrophilic polymeric networks that can absorb water without dissolving
Can be composed of natural or synthetic polymers
First suggested for use in biomedical applications in 1960
Hoffman, A. S. Adv. Drug Deliv. Rev., 2002, 43, 3
Wichterle, O.; Lim, D. Nature, 1960, 185, 117
Natural vs. Synthetic Hydrogels
Natural Most closely resemble
the tissues they are meant to replace
Almost always biocompatible
Biodegradable Difficult to isolate from
biological tissues Restricted versatility
Synthetic Can be reliably produced Greater control over
polymer structure May not be biocompatible Not always
biodegradable Use of toxic reagents a
problem
Lee, K. Y.; Mooney, D. J. Chem. Rev., 2001, 101, 1869
Hydrogels as Tissue Engineering Matrices Advantages
Aqueous environment for cells
Porous to allow for nutrient transport
Easily modified
Usually biocompatible
Disadvantages Hard to handle
Physically weak
Difficult to sterilize
