The implantation of multifunctional carbon aerogel (CA)-coated β-TCP scaffolds for synchronously improving the photothermal ablation and enhanced bone regeneration of osteosarcoma.

In clinical treatment, the bone regeneration of critical‐size defects is desiderated to be solved, and the regeneration of large bone segment defects depends on early vascularization. Therefore, overcoming insufficient vascularization in artificial bone grafts may be a promising strategy for critical‐size bone regeneration. Herein, a novel dual‐drug programmed releasing electrospinning fibrous mat (EFM) with a deferoxamine (DFO)‐loaded shell layer and a dexamethasone (DEX)‐loaded core layer is fabricated using coaxial electrospinning technology, considering the temporal sequence of vascularization and bone repair. DFO acts as an angiogenesis promoter and DEX is used as an osteogenesis inducer. The results demonstrate that the early and rapid release of DFO promotes angiogenesis in human umbilical vascular endothelial cells and the sustained release of DEX enhances the osteogenic differentiation of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells. DFO and DEX exert synergetic effects on osteogenic differentiation via the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway, and the dual‐drug programmed releasing EFM acquired perfect vascularized bone regeneration ability in a rat calvarial defect model. Overall, the study suggests a low‐cost strategy to enhance vascularized bone regeneration by adjusting the behavior of angiogenesis and osteogenesis in time dimension.
