Abstract
Since 1960s, lipids are broadly explored as fundamental models to understand and study the cell membranes, as carriers for delivering and protecting bioactive agents. Lipids and lipid-based polymer composites have been utilized in various fields of research including imaging, diagnosis, cosmetics, vaccines, drug delivery and tissue engineering. This provides a strategy that involves the application of specified cell types and structured scaffold biomaterials to produce living biological structures. To develop a new tissue, well-controlled stimulation of cultured cells is required through organized combination of mechanical signals and bioactive agents. In this chapter, we highlight the potential use of lipid and lipid-based biopolymer composites as a platform for the in vivo imaging, tissue engineering, cell rejuvenation and theranostic applications.
