Abstract

Innovation in life science including medical science is essential to improve the quality of life in coming 21st century, in which human being must face serious problems due to the aging society, environmental issue, the food problem and so on. Highly functional and intelligent biomedical polymers is crucial for the innovation of medical cares. In this review, the authors make an effort to emphasize the importance of designing biomedical polymers which are capable of cooperating and harmonizing with living systems, because the living systems maintained their homeostasis by synchronizing complex and miscellaneous components. Biomedical materials which exhibit their functions in a cooperative and harmonizing manner with biomolecules, bio-assemblies and cells can open a new standard of gentle and truly affectionate medical cares. A lot of unique biomedical materials have been developed by designing and preparing new polymeric materials. A basic concept for designing of blood compatible materials, materials for cellular/tissue engineering and drug delivery systems will be focused.
