Cellulose-based materials have been experimentally tested as cell carriers for tissue engineering, and some of these results have been introduced into clinical practice. This review summarizes the status of the use of cellulose-based materials over the past 30 years for engineering, reconstruction and regeneration of various tissues, namely blood vessels, cardiac muscle, heart valves, skeletal muscle, skin liver, pancreatic islets, the peripheral nervous system, the central nervous system, the urinary system, bone cartilage, tendon and ligamen. The experience of our group in vascular and bone tissue engineering using cellulose-based materials, such as viscose, dialdehyde cellulose, cotton and 6-carboxycellulose, is also included
