.1.) Levels of organization: the fabrics


r Explora
Perhaps one day people with liver failure will be cured by means of neoorgan implants
made from liver cells and plastic fibers. Is it unreal? Not for tissue engineering experts. In
some parts of the world, the first commercial product of tissue engineering, artificial
skin, is sold, and other organs will soon follow. Embryonic stem cells are currently
being cultured that could allow the construction ofcustom-made organs. Likewise, thin
tubes have been implanted in the spine of patients with chronic pain that have cells that
secrete analgesics. All this thanks to tissue engineering.
1.Are the main components of artificial skin cells? Justifyyour answer.

1. For humans, why are the contributions of tissue engineering important?

Tissues constitute the next level of organization and are formed by the union of
similar cells, which have a common embryonic origin and which fulfill aspecific function. Tissues are made up of cells
linked together and an extracellular substance or matrix that is synthesized by the cells themselves. The extracellular
matrix is made up of water, minerals and proteins, withsome functions such as allowing cells to stay together and
