What Types of Nanomaterials are Used in Stem Cell Therapy?
Various types of nanomaterials are utilized in stem cell therapy, including:
Nanofibers: These are used to create scaffolds that mimic the extracellular matrix, providing structural support for stem cell growth and differentiation. Quantum dots: These fluorescent nanoparticles can be used for tracking and imaging stem cells in vivo. Magnetic nanoparticles: These can be guided to specific locations in the body using external magnetic fields, enabling targeted stem cell delivery. Lipid nanoparticles: These can encapsulate and protect stem cells during transport and release them at the desired site.
