title: [Tissue engineering yesterday and today. Part II].
abstract: Science and technology is always an important component of human culture. Science directs technological innovation and technology accelerates the progress of science. Increasing number of achievements in tissue engineering domain make possible ex vivo maintaining not only the isolated cells, but also tissues and organs. Tissue engineering powerfully expanding from over hundred years, contribute to the development of genetics, transplantology, oncological diagnostics, pharmacology, toxicology and many other medical sciences. Presented paper summarizes the scientists' accomplishments in the field of tissue engineering which were noted in the second half of twentieth century.
