Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Membrane biomaterials are a kind of basic materials closely related to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, which have been widely used in tissue construction and organ regeneration.

OBJECTIVE: To review a variety of film forming materials and their application in tissue regeneration.
METHODS: PubMed and Chinese Journal Full-Text Database were searched by computer for articles concerning membrane biomaterials published from January 2002 to March 2017. The key words were “membrane biomaterial, scaffold, tissue engineering, regeneration medicine" in English and Chinese, respectively. Initially 133 articles were retrieved, and finally 45 articles were included in result analysis.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Membrane biomaterials from different origins can be divided into natural acellular matrix membrane, organic polymer membrane and synthetic macromolecular membrane. Natural organic polymer membranes, including proteins and polysaccharides, have been prepared by natural organic polymer materials using chemical or physical treatments. Synthetic organic macromolecules are various, mainly including polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid and their copolymers, polyvinyl alcohol, polycaprolactone, polyhydroxybutyrate. Until now, a membrane regeneration theory gradually forms in the basic field based on the use of membrane biomaterials in tissue engineering, which has been widely used in the bone induction. Extensive research is warranted to improve the guided membrane regeneration theory and popularize its application in tissue regeneration.
