Bioengineering Approaches to Female Infertility
Author(s): Pamela Kreeger*
Chemotherapy, uterine injuries, fallopian tube occlusion, massive intrauterine adhesions, congenital uterine malformations and hysterectomy
have all been shown to have a significant impact on female infertility and bioengineering techniques have shown great promise in this regard. The
following are two broad categories that apply to these strategies: I) Transplantation of new or cryopreserved organs into the host and (ii) tissue
designing methodologies that use a mix of cells, development factors and biomaterials that use the body's inborn capacity to recover/fix conceptive
organs. The source of the organ and the immunogenic effects of allografts remain challenging despite whole organ transplant's success. Tissue
engineering techniques can avoid these problems, but they haven't been shown to be effective at creating whole organ structures. We present a
synopsis.. Read More»
