Chitosan as Functional Biomaterial for Designing Delivery Systems in Cardiac Therapies
Gels, 2021 Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of mortality across the globe, and transplant surgeries are not always successful since it is not always possible to replace most of the damaged heart tissues, for example in myocardial infarction.

Electroconductive biomaterials for cardiac tissue engineering. [PDF]
Acta Biomater, 2022 Myocardial infarction (MI) is still the leading cause of mortality worldwide. The success of cell-based therapies and tissue engineering strategies for treatment of injured myocardium have been notably hindered due to the limitations associated with the selection of a proper cell source, lack of engraftment of engineered tissues and biomaterials with ...
