Abstract

U radu je opisan cilj razvoja tkivnog inženjerstva, područja njegova djelovanja i primjena hidrogelova u tkivnom inženjerstvu. Tkivno inženjerstvo je područje koje uključuje principe inženjerstva i prirodnih znanosti s ciljem razvoja postojećih i otkrićem novih metoda obnova ljudskog tkiva i liječenja oboljelih organa ljudi. Također, opisana je značajna uloga hidrogelova u tkivnom inženjerstvu. Dan je pregled klasifikacije hidrogelova, metode njihove priprave i primjene u biomedicini. Ključna komponenta primjene hidrogelova u uspješnom tkivnom inženjerstvu je dizajniranje i izrada hidrogelnog skeleta. U radu su opisane neke tehnike izrade hidrogelnog skeleta i parametri koje gotovi skelet mora zadovoljiti. Hidrogelovi imaju važnu ulogu u regeneraciji srčanog tkiva, transportu stanica, kisika i hranjivih tvari. Navedeni su primjeri istraživanja upotrebe hidrogelova u inženjerstvu srčanog tkiva na modelu životinja s ciljem primjene metoda na ljudsku populaciju.

Abstract (english)

This paper describes the goal of tissue engineering development, its field of activity and the application of hydrogels in tissue engineering. Tissue engineering is an area that incorporates the principles of engineering and natural sciences to develop existing and discover new methods of restoring human tissue and treating diseased human organs. Also, the significant role of hydrogels in tissue engineering is described. The classification of hydrogels, methods for their preparation and application in biomedicine are given. A key component of the application of hydrogels in successful tissue engineering is the design and fabrication of the hydrogel skeleton. The paper describes some techniques for making a hydrogel skeleton and the parameters that the finished skeleton must satisfy. Hydrogels play an important role in the regeneration of cardiac tissue, the transport of cells, oxygen and nutrients. Examples of the study of the use of hydrogels in cardiac tissue engineering on an animal model are presented with the aim of applying the methods to the human population.
