Biomechanics and tissue engineering

D P Pioletti. Osteoporos Int. 2011 Jun.

Abstract

Development of artificial scaffold for musculo-skeletal applications, especially in load-bearing situations, requires the consideration of biomechanical aspects for its integrity and its function. However, the biomechanical loading could also be used to favour tissue formation through mechano-transduction phenomena. Design of scaffold could take advantages of this intrinsic mechanical loading.
