Engineered skeletal muscle grafts have made great progress during the past decades, benefiting from a growing understanding of mechanobiology and stem cell differentiation. Current techniques are widely varied, ranging from in vitro methods following the classical tissue engineering paradigm to in situ approaches such as host cell recruitment. In different ways, all of these try to supply mechanical toughness while providing the necessary signals for differentiation and maturation of the engineered skeletal muscle.
