Moving toward Biomimetic Tissue Engineered Scaffolds

This reprint aims to provide an overview of the latest research strategies focused on fabricating biomimetic scaffolds to promote tissue regeneration. Biomimicking the microenvironment of the extracellular matrix of a tissue to be healed can be regarded as one of the most promising solutions to obtain a correct physiological regeneration. Materials, fabrication techniques, cellular and/or biological signals, and the incorporation of bioactive compounds are pivotal aspects considered for this purpose. In this reprint, experts in the field contribute original research articles, review articles, and a forward-looking perspective to deliver the current scenario of advancing experimental methodologies used to mimic a tissue-specific extracellular matrix.
