Myofibroblasts have been implicated in scar tissue formation around biomaterials. When biomaterials are implanted as part of a tissue engineered construct, as a sensor, as a prosthetic or even as a drug delivery device, scar formation fibrosis around the biomaterial often interferes with the intended function...

Dental caries tooth decay remains one of the most common chronic diseases worldwide. In previous research 1 proteins have been identified from the acquired enamel pellicle AEP , the layer between the tooth enamel and a dental plaque, that have demonstrated biological functions directly related to enamel homeostasis and inhibition of dental caries...

Modern medicine relies on the efficient delivery of drugs to treat infections and diseases. Ideally, these drugs should be administered at the exact concentration needed, target the affected area only and not harm healthy cells or tissues...
