Research using Hyaluronic Acid-based Scaffolds for Brain Regeneration

4 Research using Hyaluronic Acid-based Scaffolds for Brain Regeneration 

HA is a popular material for brain tissue regeneration because it is normally present in high levels in the ECM of connective, epithelial and neural tissues [31, 32]. HA is known to play roles in cellular processes like cell proliferation, morphogenesis, inflammation, and wound repair [33]. It has also been reported that HA scaffolds could reduce glial scar formation after implantation [34], The recent progress on HA-based scaffolds for brain regeneration is briefly summarised in the following section.
