Biomimetic Materials
Growth factors are natural substances, often proteins, that stimulate cellular growth, proliferation, and differentiation. They play a crucial role in various biological processes, including tissue repair and regeneration, by promoting the healing of wounds and facilitating the repair of damaged tissues. Their importance in self-healing biological systems and biomimetic approaches to regeneration highlights how they can inspire the development of new medical therapies and materials that mimic these natural healing processes.
congrats on reading the definition of growth factors. now let's actually learn it.
