Abstract:Despite its remarkable capacity to undergo self-repair, bone tissue cannot regenerate across critical-sized defects, and their successful reconstruction remains a major clinical challenge. Current treatment options are limited and often associated with a high incidence of complications, which may result in non-union or re-fracture. There is a great and growing need for alternative techniques to replace, restore or regenerate damaged or diseased bone. Biomaterials-based bone tissue engineering via the use of sy… Show more
Osteochondral (OC) defects combine damage to cartilage and subchondral bone, posing a significant challenge to their repair due to the dissimilar characteristics and regenerative capabilities between the two tissues. Here,...
