Decellularization technique is a favorable method used to fabricate natural and tissue-like scaffolds. This technique is important because of its remarkable ability to perfectly mimic the natural extracellular matrix (ECM). ECM-based scaffolds/hydrogels provide structural support for cell differentiation and maturation. Therefore, novel natural-based bioinks, ECM-based hydrogels, and particulate forms of the ECM provide promising strategies for whole organ regeneration. Despite its efficacious characteristics, removal of residual detergent and the presence of various protocols make this technique challenging for scientists and regenerative medicine-related programs. This chapter reviews the most effective physical, chemical, and enzymatic protocols used to remove the cellular components and their challenges. We discuss the applications of decellularized ECM (dECM) in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine with an emphasis on hard tissues. |
