Extracellular Vesicles and Nanoscale Biomaterials as Therapeutics of Human Diseases

Extracellular Vesicles and Nanoscale Biomaterials as Therapeutics of Human Diseases considers the potential clinical application of extracellular vesicles (EVs) and nanoscale biomaterials in the treatment of a variety of conditions.

The book begins with an overview of EVs and biomaterials, covering the fundamental characteristics of each and how they can be implemented to work together in disease treatment. It then moves on to discussion of specific application in wound healing, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, bone and tissue regeneration, cardiovascular disease, and liver disease. The book closes with discussion of future perspectives regarding EVs and biomaterials in diagnosis and therapeutic application.

In its exploration of the combination of EVs and nanoscale biomaterials in therapeutic intervention, this book sets a strong basis for future developments in this area and acts as a useful reference for researchers working in the areas of cell biology, drug delivery, regenerative medicine and related fields.
