Biomaterials
● Many different materials are employed to encapsulate cells, among them, alignates are nowadays the most studied and characterized for cell encapsulation technology
Alignates are linear unbranched polymers containing linked D-mamuronic acid (M) and L-guloronic acid (G)
Alignates create 3D structures when they react with multivalent ions. Divalent cations such as calcium bind between adjacent alignate chains (G-blocks) creating interchain bridges which cause gelling of the aqueous alignate solution

● U-capsules can be formulated by many different methods, the most often described system is based on an alignate core surrounded by a polycation layer which at the same time is covered by an outer alignate membrane. (the polycation forms a semipermeable membrane, which improbes the stability and biocompatibility of the u-capsule.)
● Different polycation suc as, poly-l-lysine (PLL), poly-l-ornithine (PLO), chitosan, among others have been employed to cover the alignate matrix
● Although capsules with alternatives materials have been developed, in vitro studies have not proven to be better and few in vivo data are available.

The versatility of cell encapsulation
● Many disease are closely tied with deficient or subnormal metabolic and secretory cell functions (Parkinson disease, Diabetes mellitus, hepatic failure)
● It is often extremely complicated or even impossible to mimic the ”moment-to-moment” precise regulation and the complex role of the hormone, factor, or enzyme that is not produced by the body.
● A suitable election of the cells holds the key to the succes of any biomedical application :
– Bioorgans: primary cells ( i.e, hepatic islet)
– Living drug factories: genetically modified cells
– Stem cell technology

Concluding remarks
● With continuing advances in genetics, materials science, pharmaceutical technology, biology and chemical engineering, improvements will lead to progression in this therapeutic approach which may become one day closer to a realistic proposal for clinical application.
● Due to the major advantages that cell encapsulation offers as a living drug delivery system, it can be expected that its practical importance will continue to steadily increase in the future.
