Regenerative engineering - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

What are the types of disease that we want to improve regeneration form? - Cell death and cell overgrowth What are the current issues of cell death issues? - Timing of cell regeneration is too slow, so we want to speed up regeneration The level of cell regeneration is not optimal yet What are the current issues of cell overgrowth issues? - Body looses ability to control cell growth What are the three regenerative engineering technologies? - Molecular, Cellular, Tissue How does low imm...

Regenerative Engineering - Developing strategies for optimizing cell regeneration Regenerative mechanisms - Processes that occur in response to injury or disease Injury - Triggers cell regeneration, can be external or internal DNA double stranded breaks - Caused by gamma and x-rays Macromolecules - Lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids Extracellular matrix (ECM) - Non-living component made of proteins ECM proteins - Collagen, proteoglycans, elastic fibers

Define Tissue Engineering "is an interdisciplinary field that applies the principles of engineering and the life sciences toward the development of biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue function" (Langer, Vacanti, Science, 1993). How does NIH define tissue engineering? Tissue engineering evolved from the field of biomaterials development and refers to the practice of combining scaffolds, cells, and biologically active molecules into functional tissues. The g...

Why develop regenerative engineering technologies - To optimize naturally occurring regenerative mechanisms what are 2 problems with naturally occurring regenerative mechanisms - Timing: cell regen takes 3-5 days effectiveness: level of regen (ex. too much fibroblast regen/not enough cardiomyocyte regen) What is atherosclerosis? - when a branch of the coronary artery becomes blocked by an atheroma (buildup of plaque/leuokcytes/SMCs/endothelial cells) embolus - piece of atheroma that de...

List 5 biomedical engineering products that were not discussed in class. - answer: 1.)3D printed organs 2.)Surgical Robots 3.)portable prototype Ka-band microwave systems 4.)Rege...

why does regeneration happen - Injury/insults (physical factors, chemical factors, biological factors) physical factors that could happen to a cell - temperature, radiation, shear stress chemical factors that could happen to a cell - toxins, signaling molecules being present/absent biological factors that could happen to a cell - ROS, oxidants, O2- cause DNA damage what is regenerative engineering - discipline to understand natural regenerative process in injury and disorders to deve...

2E10 MCQ Questions and Answers | Latest Version | 2024/2025 | Graded A+ What is the primary function of an H-bridge in electrical engineering? An H-bridge is used to control the direction of a DC motor by allowing the voltage to be applied in either direction across the motor terminals. How does an H-bridge control motor speed? The speed of a motor can be controlled using pulse-width modulation (PWM) signals applied to the H-bridge, adjusting the average voltage and current supplied...
