Synopsis
The battle against complex diseases and tissue defects drives innovation in treatment and medical research. The cell membrane plays a fundamental role in biological processes and serves as a promising platform for diagnostic and therapeutic advancements due to its diverse receptors and ligands. Recent advances in bioengineering, synthetic biology, and biomimetic nanotechnology have enabled the development of engineered cell membrane-based platforms, including surface-engineered cells, extracellular vesicles, bacterial membrane vesicles, membrane-coated nanoparticles, and hybrid nanomaterials, offering improved therapeutic and diagnostic potential over their natural counterparts. This book provides a comprehensive exploration of essential cell surfaceome components, detailing state-of-the-art surface engineering strategies and advancements in engineered cells and membrane-based therapeutic nanoplatforms. It examines the transformative applications of these platforms in immune engineering, gastrointestinal disease management, cancer therapy, tissue engineering, circulating tumor cell capture, theranostics, and the treatment of neurodegenerative, inflammatory, and infectious diseases. Significant topics, many at the forefront of scientific research, are examined in depth, allowing academics, clinicians, and biomedical researchers to understand the latest advancements in cell membrane engineering and address unmet clinical needs. Furthermore, this interdisciplinary book is highly relevant to modern healthcare and provides instructional content for graduate students in
