Biodegradable polymer nanocomposites for ligament/tendon tissue engineering [PDF]

Journal of Nanobiotechnology, 2020
Ligaments and tendons are fibrous tissues with poor vascularity and limited regeneration capacity. Currently, a ligament/tendon injury often require a surgical procedure using auto- or allografts that present some limitations. These inadequacies combined
