title: [Recent advance in tendon tissue engineering using scaffolding biomaterials].
abstract: An ideal biologically derived that tissue engineering material of tendon has biological activities and functions, so that it may lead to a perfect effect in histological reparation and reconstruction. In addition, the tissue engineering material can avoid disease transmission, be provided from variety of sources and be weak in immune responses. Generally, there are two kinds biologically derived material, i. e. natural biomaterials and purified biomaterials. In this review, researches about the effect, capability and relevant preparation methods, enhancing strategies and the development in the future are discussed.
