In the last decade, both regenerative medicine and nanotechnology have been
broadly developed leading important advances in biomedical research as well as in clinical
practice. The manipulation on the molecular level and the use of several functionalized
nanoscaled materials has application in various fields of regenerative medicine including
tissue engineering, cell therapy, diagnosis and drug and gene delivery. The themes covered
in this review include nanoparticle systems for tracking transplanted stem cells,
self-assembling peptides, nanoparticles for gene delivery into stem cells and biomimetic
scaffolds useful for 2D and 3D tissue cell cultures, transplantation and clinical application.
