Oxygen plays a crucial role in human embryogenesis, homeostasis, and tissue regeneration. Emerging engineered regenerative solutions call for novel oxygen delivery systems. To become a reality, these systems must consider physiological processes, oxygen release mechanisms and the target application. In this review, we explore the biological relevance of oxygen at both a cellular and tissue level, and the importance of its controlled delivery via engineered biomaterials and devices. Recent advances and upcoming trends in the field are also discussed with a focus on tissue-engineered constructs that could meet metabolic demands to facilitate regeneration.
氧气在人类胚胎发生、内稳态和组织再生中起着至关重要的作用。新兴的工程再生解决方案需要新型的氧气输送系统。为了成为现实,这些系统必须考虑生理过程、氧气释放机制和目标应用。在这篇综述中,我们探讨了氧气在细胞和组织水平上的生物学相关性,以及通过工程生物材料和设备控制其输送的重要性。还讨论了该领域的最新进展和未来趋势,重点是能够满足代谢需求以促进再生的组织工程构建体。
