Natural bone constitutes a complex and organized structure of organic and inorganic
components with limited ability to regenerate and restore injured tissues, especially in large …

In recent years, significant development has been achieved in the construction of artificial
bone with ceramics, polymers and metals. Nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) is widely used …

Biomimetic scaffolds mimic important features of the extracellular matrix (ECM) architecture
and can be finely controlled at the nano‐or microscale for tissue engineering. Rational …

As a bone scaffold, meeting all basic requirements besides dealing with other bone-related
issues—bone cancer and accelerated regeneration—is not expected from traditional …

Multiscale, hierarchically patterned surfaces, such as lotus leaves, butterfly wings, adhesion
pads of gecko lizards are abundantly found in nature, where microstructures are usually …

Nanoarchitectonics, like architectonics, allows the design and building of structures, but at
the nanoscale. Unlike those in architectonics, and even macro-, micro-, and atomic-scale …

Self-assembled nanocomplexes composed of individual molecules that spontaneously
connect via noncovalent interactions have recently emerged as versatile alternatives to …

The state-of-the-art on calcium orthophosphate (CaPO4)-containing biocomposites and
hybrid biomaterials suitable for biomedical applications is presented. Since these types of …

The state-of-the-art of biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials based on calcium
orthophosphates that are suitable for biomedical applications is presented in this review …

Advances introduced by additive manufacturing (AM) have significantly improved the control
over the microarchitecture of scaffolds for tissue engineering. This has led to the flourishing …
