Tissue engineering along with regenerative medicine can be used to create ‘Scaffolds’ in the human body. These scaffolds are used to support organs and organ systems that may have been damaged after injury or disease. ‘Tissue engineering is the use of a combination of cells, engineering and materials methods, and suitable biochemical and physic-chemical factors to improve or replace biological functions’. This is most commonly achieved through the use of stem cells. Stem cells are unique types of cells that are undifferentiated. So the main focus of creating these constructs is to be able to safely deliver these stem cells, and create a structure that is physically and mechanically stable so that these stem cells can differentiate. Scaffolds are of great importance in clinical medicine. It is an upcoming field, and usually associated with conditions involving organ disease or failure. It is used to rebuild organs and return normal function. Requirements scaffolds must fulfil in their purpose are allow cell attachment and migration, Deliver and retain cells and biochemical factors, Enable diffusion of vital cell nutrients and expressed products, Exert certain mechanical and biological influences to modify the behavior of the cell phase, There are two main types of ways scaffolds in tissue engineering can be achieved.
