Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases, such as myocardial infarction, are considered a significant global burden and the leading cause of death. Given the inability of damaged cardiac tissue to self-repair, cell-based tissue engineering and regeneration may be the only viable option for restoring normal heart function. To maintain the normal excitation-contraction coupling function of cardiac tissue, uniform electronic and ionic conductance properties are required. To transport cells to damaged cardiac tissues, several techniques, including the incorporation of cells into conductive polymers (CPs) and biomaterials, have been utilized. Due to the complexity of cardiac tissues, the success of tissue engineering for the damaged heart is highly dependent on several variables, such as the cell source, growth factors, and scaffolds. In this review, we sought to provide a comprehensive overview of the electro CPs and biomaterials used in the engineering and regeneration of heart tissue.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine aims to engineer tissue constructs that can recapitulate the functional and structural properties of native organs. Most novel regenerative therapies are based on the recreation of a three-dimensional environment that can provide essential guidance for cell organization, survival, and function, which leads to adequate tissue growth. The primary motivation in the use of conductive nanomaterials in tissue engineering has been to develop biomimetic scaffolds to recapitulate the electrical properties of the natural extracellular matrix, something often overlooked in numerous tissue engineering materials to date. In this review article, we focus on the use of electroconductive nanobiomaterials for different biomedical applications, particularly, very recent advancements for cardiovascular, neural, bone, and muscle tissue regeneration. Moreover, this review highlights how electroconductive nanobiomaterials can facilitate cell to cell crosstalk (i.e., for cell growth, migration, proliferation, and differentiation) in different tissues. Thoughts on what the field needs for future growth are also provided.

Abstract
Nowadays, tissue and organ failures resulted from injury, aging accounts, diseases or other type of damages is one of the most important health problems with an increasing incidence worldwide. Current treatments have limitations including, low graft efficiency, shortage of donor organs, as well as immunological problems. In this context, tissue engineering (TE) was introduced as a novel and versatile approach for restoring tissue/organ function using living cells, scaffold and bioactive (macro-)molecules. Among these, scaffold as a three-dimensional (3D) support material, provide physical and chemical cues for seeding cells and has an essential role in cell missions. Among the wide verity of scaffolding materials, natural or synthetic biopolymers are the most commonly biomaterials mainly due to their unique physicochemical and biological features. In this context, naturally occurring biological macromolecules are particular of interest owing to their low immunogenicity, excellent biocompatibility and cytocompatibility, as well as antigenicity that qualified them as popular choices for scaffolding applications. In this review, we highlighted the potentials of natural and synthetic polymers as scaffolding materials. The properties, advantages, and disadvantages of both polymer types as well as the current status, challenges, and recent progresses regarding the application of them as scaffolding biomaterials are also discussed.

Abstract
Patient deaths resulting from cardiovascular diseases are increasing across the globe, posing the greatest risk to patients in developed countries. Myocardial infarction, as a result of inadequate blood flow to the myocardium, results in irreversible loss of cardiomyocytes which can lead to heart failure. A sequela of myocardial infarction is scar formation that can alter the normal myocardial architecture and result in arrhythmias. Over the past decade, a myriad of tissue engineering approaches has been developed to fabricate engineered scaffolds for repairing cardiac tissue. This paper highlights the recent application of electrically conductive nanomaterials (carbon and gold-based nanomaterials, and electroactive polymers) to the development of scaffolds for cardiac tissue engineering. Moreover, this work summarizes the effects of these nanomaterials on cardiac cell behavior such as proliferation and migration, as well as cardiomyogenic differentiation in stem cells.
