Development of gelatin/carboxymethyl chitosan/nano-hydroxyapatite composite 3D macroporous scaffold for bone tissue engineering applications.

TL;DR: The fabricated macroporous SGC scaffold had a greater pore size, higher porosity, higher water retention capacity, slow and sustained enzymatic degradation rate along with higher compressive strength compared to that of non-macroporous (NGC), prepared by conventional freeze drying methodology.

3D-Plotted Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate Scaffolds with Smaller Pore Sizes Improve In Vivo Bone Regeneration and Biomechanical Properties in a Critical-Sized Calvarial Defect Rat Model.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that tailoring the pore size of β‐TCP scaffolds to a smaller range by 3D‐plotting can be a facile and efficient approach to enhanced bone regeneration and biomechanical behaviors in bone repair.

A Comparison of the Effects of Silica and Hydroxyapatite Nanoparticles on Poly(ε-caprolactone)-Poly(ethylene glycol)-Poly(ε-caprolactone)/Chitosan Nanofibrous Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering

TL;DR: Compared to other groups, PCEC-CS nanofibers incorporated with 15 wt% n-HA were able to support more cell adhesion and differentiation, thus are better candidates for bone tissue engineering applications.

Crosslinked pullulan/cellulose acetate fibrous scaffolds for bone tissue engineering

TL;DR: It was found that mechanical properties of P20/CA80 and P50/CA50 were higher than that of P80/CA20 and these scaffolds became more stable after crosslinking, and crosslinked P50-CA50 scaffolds were proposed as candidate cell carriers for bone tissue engineering applications.
