Advanced nanocomposites for bone regeneration

TL;DR: It is shown that these nanocomposite sponges can be used as a depot for bone-producing (a.k.a. osteogenic) growth factors and supports complete cell infiltration, minimal adverse foreign body response, positive cellular proliferation, and cellular expression of osteogenic markers in subcutaneous tissue.

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) Nanofibers for Bone Tissue Engineering

TL;DR: The potential of using PLA nanofibers in bone tissue engineering is a serious goal for scientists in novel investigations and this review gives detailed information about the recent developments and applications of PLA nan ofibers as scaffolds for bone tissue.

Electrospun aniline-tetramer-co-polycaprolactone fibres for conductive, biodegradable scaffolds.

TL;DR: It is shown that fibronectin (Fn) adhesion was dependant on the AT-PCL oxidative state, with a reduced Fn unfolding length on doped membranes, and cytocompatibility and potential of these membranes to support the growth and osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 over 21 days.

Variation in Properties of Bioactive Glasses After Surface Modification

TL;DR: This chapter is mainly focused on bioactive silicate glasses, in the following three aspects: (1) ion doping glass, (2) covalent modification of a bioactive glass’s surfaces by silanes, and (3) biological surface functionalization of bioactive glasses.

Fabrication and In Vitro Evaluation of 3D Printed Porous Polyetherimide Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering

TL;DR: The cell proliferation and morphology on the 3D PEI scaffold were better than those on the PEI slice, which revealed that the porous scaffold has good biocompatibility and that no toxic substances were produced during the progress of high-temperature 3D printing.
