Liposomes - Hollow Nanospheres for Tissue Engineering - Medical / Health Care

Tissue regeneration is aimed at the reconstruction of a tissue or organ that requires that cells coordinate timely and spatially to proliferate and differentiate. This comprises complex cell signaling to regulate cellular activity. The delivery of growth and differentiation factors face a rapid in vivo clearance that will benefit greatly from encapsulation in liposomes. Apart from protection, liposomes target the specific cell populations to develop in a scaffold and allow a spatio-temporal controlled delivery. Wound healing is another field in which liposomes have been used with great outlooks, specially for impaired wound healing cases, protecting short life pharmaceuticals, and accelerating neovascularization and epithelialization.
