Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Tissue engineering is a rapidly developing interdisciplinary field dedicated to the development and construction of alternative tissues, and organs. Nano-biomaterials have a wide range of uses in tissue engineering, providing versatile tools for cell targeting, drug delivery, scaffold construction and imaging. The use of nano-biomaterials can greatly promote the development of this field and contribute to the creation of effective tissue regeneration techniques. In particular, nano-biomaterials can facilitate tissue regeneration and repair by promoting cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation through interactions with cells or tissues. In addition, nano-biomaterials can be used to construct biomimetic tissue engineering scaffolds, which provide cell localization and guidance to promote tissue formation and functional restoration.
This Special Issue aims to collect the latest findings and progress in the field of nano-biomaterials for tissue engineering. We are pleased to invite authors to contribute original research articles, review articles, or short communications regarding (but not limited to) the following aspects:
- Nano-biomaterial fabrication techniques for tissue engineering;
- Mechanisms involved in interactions between nano-biomaterials and cells or tissues;
- Applications of nano-biomaterials in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Nanomaterials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
