Bio-Instructive Scaffolds for Musculoskeletal Tissue
Engineering and Regenerative Medicine explores
musculoskeletal tissue growth and development across populations,
ranging from elite athletes to the elderly. The regeneration and
reparation of musculoskeletal tissues present the unique
challenges of requiring both the need to withstand distinct
forces applied to the body and ability to support cell
populations.

The book is separated into sections based on tissue type,
including bone, cartilage, ligament and tendon, muscle, and
musculoskeletal tissue interfaces. Within each tissue type, the
chapters are subcategorized into strategies focused on cells,
hydrogels, polymers, and other materials (i.e. ceramics and
metals) utilized in musculoskeletal tissue engineering
applications.

In each chapter, the relationships that exist amongst the
strategy, stem cell differentiation and somatic cell
specialization at the intracellular level are emphasized.
Examples include intracellular signaling through growth factor
delivery, geometry sensing of the surrounding network, and cell
signaling that stems from altered population dynamics.
