Description
Description
Drug Delivery Systems for Bone and Cartilage Regeneration and Repair provides an overview of biomaterials used in drug delivery systems for bone and cartilage, addressing key challenges in tissue repair. This book begins with an introduction to bone and cartilage anatomy, physiology, and related diseases, followed by an analysis of current treatments and limitations. Targeted approaches - such as injectable formulations, scaffold platforms, and nanoparticle technologies - are assessed for their effectiveness in supporting healing for conditions like osteoporosis, fractures, and osteoarthritis. Advanced delivery strategies, including natural and synthetic polymers, stimuli-responsive systems, and 3D printing are detailed, with an emphasis on their potential for personalized therapies. Case studies and clinical applications highlight current practices and regulatory considerations, while future trends focus on emerging technologies and ethical issues.
Drug Delivery Systems for Bone and Cartilage Regeneration and Repair is of interest to researchers and academics in materials science, tissue engineering, pharmaceutical sciences, and pharmacology.
