Biomaterials are employed in the fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
(TERM) in order to enhance the regeneration or replacement of tissue function and/or …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a three-dimensional, acellular scaffold of living tissues.
Incorporating the ECM into cell culture models is a goal of cell biology studies and requires …

Bone substitute materials based on bioceramics and polymers have evolved shifting from a
passive role where they are merely accepted by the body; to an active role, where they …

The need for a suitable tissue‐engineered scaffold that can be used to heal load‐bearing
segmental bone defects (SBDs) is both immediate and increasing. During the past 30 years …

Beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP)-based bioinks were developed to support direct-ink 3D
printing-based manufacturing of macroporous scaffolds. Binding of the gelatin: β-TCP ink …

Several procedures have been proposed to achieve maxillary ridge augmentation. These
require bone replacement materials to be manually cut, shaped, and formed at the time of …

Clinicians should be aware of the main methods and materials to face the challenge of bone
shortage by manufacturing customized grafts, in order to repair defects. This study aims to …

To examine the effect of scaffold pore size on bone regeneration within hydroxyapatite
scaffolds in large segmental defects, this study evaluated two porous interconnected …

Critically sized bone defects are often compounded by infectious complications. The
standard of care consists of bone autografts with systemic antibiotics. These injuries and …

Interactions between proteins and the surface of biomaterials are crucial for the biological
function and success of materials implanted in the human body. In this study, hydroxyapatite …
