Abstract
A severe disorder known as spinal cord damage causes both motor and sensory impairment in the limbs, significantly reducing the patients' quality of life. After a spinal cord injury, functional recovery and therapy have emerged as critical concerns. Hydrogel microspheres have garnered a lot of interest lately because of their enormous promise in the field of spinal cord injury rehabilitation. The material classification of hydrogel microspheres (natural and synthetic macromolecule polymers) and their synthesis methods are examined in this work. This work also covers the introduction of several kinds of hydrogel microspheres and their use as carriers in the realm of treating spinal cord injuries. Lastly, the study reviews the future prospects for hydrogel microspheres and highlights their limitations and problems. This paper can offer feasible ideas for researchers to advance the application of hydrogel microspheres in the field of spinal cord injury.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A is an international, interdisciplinary, English-language publication of original contributions concerning studies of the preparation, performance, and evaluation of biomaterials; the chemical, physical, toxicological, and mechanical behavior of materials in physiological environments; and the response of blood and tissues to biomaterials. The Journal publishes peer-reviewed articles on all relevant biomaterial topics including the science and technology of alloys,polymers, ceramics, and reprocessed animal and human tissues in surgery,dentistry, artificial organs, and other medical devices. The Journal also publishes articles in interdisciplinary areas such as tissue engineering and controlled release technology where biomaterials play a significant role in the performance of the medical device.
The Journal of Biomedical Materials Research is the official journal of the Society for Biomaterials (USA), the Japanese Society for Biomaterials, the Australasian Society for Biomaterials, and the Korean Society for Biomaterials.
Articles are welcomed from all scientists. Membership in the Society for Biomaterials is not a prerequisite for submission.
