Hydrogels may better support skeletal muscle repair after volume loss
What the study found Hydrogels are presented as promising injectable scaffolds for volumetric muscle loss (VML), a condition in which skeletal muscle loss is too large for the tissue to repair on its own and heals with fibrosis, poor blood supply, and loss of nerve supply. The review finds that natural, synthetic, and peptide-based hydrogels…
