Bone Repair and Regenerative Biomaterials: Towards Recapitulating the Microenvironment

Abstract: Biomaterials and tissue engineering scaffolds play a central role to repair bone defects. Although ceramic derivatives have been historically used to repair bone, hybrid materials have emerged as viable alternatives. The rationale for hybrid bone biomaterials is to recapitulate the native bone composition to which these materials are intended to replace. In addition to the mechanical and dimensional stability, bone repair scaffolds are needed to provide suitable microenvironments for cells. Therefore, scaffold… Show more

“…Their presence in many cases decreases sorption abilities of the hydrogels due to their interactions with functional groups. In the case of proposed supporting tissue-regeneration materials, all of them exhibited SC above 200%, meaning that they are suitable for bone recovery [1,5,6]. High sorption ability is especially important during the biomineralization process, which significantly hampers water absorption by hydrogels [41].…”

“…To determine morphological properties of the scaffolds, as well as their semi-components, their structure was analyzed by SEM and TEM microscopy. Figure 7a shows pure crosslinked chitosan aerogel, which has a highly porous structure, with pores dimension in the range between 100 and 500 µm, thus providing appropriate conditions for osteoblasts growth, proliferation, and osteogenesis process meeting requirements for bone-tissue engineering [1,5,6]. The scaffold was further modified with synthetic hydroxyapatite, to increase its affinity to this type of tissue and bioactivity (Figure 7b).…”

“…The implantable scaffolds that can inherit a remarkable biological and physiological bio-interface to host stem cells are rapidly expanding their applications towards clinical studies in bone tissue engineering [1,2]. Such scaffolds have tendency to acquire biomimetic behavior akin to those of native host tissue for absorbing proteins, biominerals and interacting with extracellular matrix (ECM) [3]. Importantly, the biomimetic scaffolds are liable to complement in wound healing system or tissue engineering which leads to restore tissue functions, enhance stem/progenitor cells regeneration, and regulate the delivery of the cells growth factors and cytokines [4].…”
