Carbon based materials in conducting tissue engineering

Abstract Conducting materials based on carbon have been widely investigated in conducting tissue engineering applications due to their outstanding physical, chemical, thermal, and electric properties in recent years. Carbon based conductive materials can generate or respond to electrical signals, allowing them to provide controlled electrical stimulation to cells or tissues. Conductive tissue engineering (CTE) holds great promise for a wide range of applications, including nerve regeneration, cardiac tissue engineering, muscle tissue engineering and neural interfaces. In this review, recent progress in conducting tissue engineering applications by using these carbon-based materials in conducting tissue engineering including nerve tissue engineering, cardiac tissue engineering, muscle tissue engineering application were given in detail.
