Abstract
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) membranes favor periodontal regrowth, but they still have certain limitations, such as improper biodegradation and poor mechanical property. To overcome these shortcomings, we have generated a unique multifunctional membrane. A polycaprolactone/gelatin/β-TCP and alginate/gelatin trilayered construction was fabricated through electrospinning and casting technology. The prepared membranes have suitable physicomechanical and in-vitro properties to confirm the compatibility of the product in the body. Phase analysis, functional groups, surface microstructure, and contact angle were measured as basic characteristics. For a mechanical performance evaluation, the tensile strength at suturing point was measured through pullout tensile strength test, and it showed the suture capability of bi-layered membranes. Highest tensile strength for A75G25 was recorded with 2.9 ± 0.15 MPa with 105% strain. Further, the osteoblast and fibroblast-type cell toxicity results showed that the electrospun membrane offered compatible environment to cells while the alginate sheet was found to be sufficiently capable to suppress the cellular attachment while also being a nontoxic material. Post-implantation, according to the in-vivo conclusions of the tri-layered membrane, there was appreciable bone formation. Compared to an implant without membrane covering, enhanced new bone formation can be identified after 8 weeks of implantation with P1G4β10 membranes-covered site.

Cefazolin/BMP-2-Loaded Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticles for the Repair of Open Fractures with Bone Defects. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:8385456. [PMID: 36193077 PMCID: PMC9526639 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8385456] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2022] [Revised: 08/20/2022] [Accepted: 08/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The study aimed to explore the feasibility of a nanodrug delivery system to treat open fractures with bone defects. We developed a cefazolin (Cef)/bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2)@mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) delivery system; meanwhile, Cef/MBP-2@ poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) was also developed as control. For the purpose of determining the osteogenic and anti-inflammatory actions of the nanodelivery system, we cultured bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and constructed a bone defect mouse model to evaluate its clinical efficacy. After physicochemical property testing, we determined that MSN had good stability and did not easily accumulate or precipitate and it could effectively prolong the Cef’s half-life by nearly eight times. In BMSCs, we found that compared with the PLGA delivery system, MSNs better penetrated into the bone tissue, thus effectively increasing BMSCs’ proliferation and migration ability to facilitate bone defect repair. Furthermore, the MSN delivery system could improve BMSCs’ mineralization indexes (alkaline phosphatase [ALP], osteocalcin [OCN], and collagen I [Col I]) to effectively improve its osteogenic ability. Moreover, the MSN delivery system could inhibit inflammation in bone defect mice, which was mainly reflected in its ability to reduce the release of IL-1β and IL-4 and increase IL-10 levels; it could also effectively reduce apoptosis of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, thus improving their immune function. Furthermore, the percentage of new bones, bone mineral density, trabecular volume, and trabecular numbers in the fracture region were improved in mice treated with MSN, which allowed better repair of bone defects. Hence, Cef/BMP-2@MSN may be feasible for open fractures with bone defects.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally. Myocardial infarction in particular leads to a high rate of mortality, and in the case of survival, to a loss of myocardial functionality due to post-infarction necrosis. This functionality can be restored by cell therapy or biomaterial implantation, and the need for a rapid regeneration has led to the development of bioactive patches, in particular through the incorporation of growth factors (GF). In this work, we designed hybrid patches composed of polymer nanofibers loaded with HGF and IGF and associated with a collagen membrane. Among the different copolymers studied, the polymers and their porogens PLA-Pluronic-PLA + PEG and PCL + Pluronic were selected to encapsulate HGF and IGF. While 89 and 92% of IGF were released in 2 days, HGF was released up to 58% and 50% in 35 days from PLA-Pluronic-PLA + PEG and PCL + Pluronic nanofibers, respectively. We also compared two ways of association for the loaded nanofibers and the collagen membrane, namely a direct deposition of the nanofibers on a moisturized collagen membrane (wet association), or entrapment between collagen layers (sandwich association). The interfacial cohesion and the degradation properties of the patches were evaluated. We also show that the sandwich association decreases the burst release of HGF while increasing the release efficiency. Finally, we show that the patches are cytocompatible and that the presence of collagen and IGF promotes the proliferation of C2C12 myoblast cells for 11 days. Taken together, these results show that these hybrid patches are of interest for cardiac muscle regeneration.

Abstract
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is a widely used technique for alveolar bone augmentation. Among all the principal elements, barrier membrane is recognized as the key to the success of GBR. Ideal barrier membrane should have satisfactory biological and mechanical properties. According to their composition, barrier membranes can be divided into polymer membranes and non-polymer membranes. Polymer barrier membranes have become a research hotspot not only because they can control the physical and chemical characteristics of the membranes by regulating the synthesis conditions but also because their prices are relatively low. Still now the bone augment effect of barrier membrane used in clinical practice is more dependent on the body’s own growth potential and the osteogenic effect is difficult to predict. Therefore, scholars have carried out many researches to explore new barrier membranes in order to improve the success rate of bone enhancement. The aim of this study is to collect and compare recent studies on optimizing barrier membranes. The characteristics and research progress of different types of barrier membranes were also discussed in detail.

Abstract
Increasing the demand for bone substitutes in the management of bone fractures, including osteoporotic fractures, makes bone tissue engineering (BTE) an ideal strategy for solving the constant shortage of bone grafts. Electrospun-based scaffolds have gained popularity in BTE because of their unique features, such as high porosity, a large surface-area-to-volume ratio, and their structural similarity to the native bone extracellular matrix (ECM). To imitate native bone mineralization through which bone minerals are deposited onto the bone matrix, a simple but robust post-treatment using a simulated body fluid (SBF) has been employed, thereby improving the osteogenic potential of these synthetic bone grafts. This study highlights recent electrospinning technologies that are helpful in creating more bone-like scaffolds, and addresses the progress of SBF development. Biomineralized electrospun bone scaffolds are also reviewed, based on the importance of bone mineralization in bone regeneration. This review summarizes the potential of SBF treatments for conferring the biphasic features of native bone ECM architectures onto electrospun-based bone scaffolds.

Abstract
Functionalization of electrospun meshes with growth factors (GFs) is a common strategy for guiding specific cell responses in tissue engineering. GFs can exert their intended biological effects only when they retain their bioactivity and can be subsequently delivered in a temporally controlled manner. However, adverse processing conditions encountered in electrospinning can potentially disrupt GFs and diminish their biological efficacy. Further, meshes prepared using conventional approaches often promote an initial burst and rely solely on intrinsic fiber properties to provide extended release. Sequential delivery of multiple GFs─a strategy that mimics the natural tissue repair cascade─is also not easily achievable with traditional fabrication techniques. These limitations have hindered the effective use and translation of mesh-based strategies for tissue repair. An attractive alternative is the use of carrier vehicles (e.g., nanoparticles, microspheres) for GF incorporation into meshes. This review presents advances in the development of particle-integrated electrospun composites for safe and effective delivery of GFs. Compared to traditional approaches, we reveal how particles can protect GF activity, permit the incorporation of multiple GFs, decouple release from fiber properties, help achieve spatiotemporal control over delivery, enhance surface bioactivity, exert independent biological effects, and augment matrix mechanics. In presenting innovations in GF functionalization and composite engineering strategies, we also discuss specific in vitro and in vivo biological effects and their implications for diverse tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
From a materials perspective, the pillars for the development of clinically translatable scaffold-based strategies for craniomaxillofacial (CMF) bone and periodontal regeneration have included electrospinning and 3D printing (biofabrication) technologies. Here, we offer a detailed analysis of the latest innovations in 3D (bio)printing strategies for CMF bone and periodontal regeneration and provide future directions envisioning the development of advanced 3D architectures for successful clinical translation. First, the principles of electrospinning applied to the generation of biodegradable scaffolds are discussed. Next, we present on extrusion-based 3D printing technologies with a focus on creating scaffolds with improved regenerative capacity. In addition, we offer a critical appraisal on 3D (bio)printing and multitechnology convergence to enable the reconstruction of CMF bones and periodontal tissues. As a future outlook, we highlight future directions associated with the utilization of complementary biomaterials and (bio)fabrication technologies for effective translation of personalized and functional scaffolds into the clinics.

Abstract
A novel tri-layer membrane consisting of polycaprolactone (PCL) fibrous sheets and structured nanofibers with a gelatin (Gt) shell and a simvastatin-containing PCL core (PCL-Gt/PCL-simvastatin membrane) was prepared. The soft external layer comprised of Gt/PCL-simvastatin, the external layer of PCL and the middle layer of both microfilaments, interwoven together. The membrane was designed to promote osteoinduction and act as a barrier against cells but not against water and molecules in order to promote guided bone regeneration. The structure of the membrane was characterized by scanning electronic microscopy. The in vitro release rates of simvastatin over 32 days were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. For in vitro biological assays, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and human fibroblasts were cultured on the different surfaces of the membrane. Cell adhesion, proliferation, distribution, and differentiation were examined. For in vivo testing, cranial defects were created in rabbits to assess the amount of new bone formed for each membrane. The results revealed that membranes with multi-layered structures showed good cell viability and effective osteoinductive and barrier properties. These results suggest that the novel multi-layered PCL-Gt/PCL-simvastatin membranes have great potential for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Preparing wound dressing with dual-delivery of antioxidant and antibacterial agents is highly desirable in clinical wound treatment. Herein, a series of coaxial nanofiber membranes loaded with antioxidant tea polyphenols (TP) in the core and antibacterial ε-poly (L-lysine) (ε-PL) in the shell layer were successfully fabricated by coaxial electrospinning. The physicochemical characterizations by transmission electron microscopy, inverted fluorescence microscopy and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the formation of core-shell structure. The results of in vitro drug release indicated that ε-PL exhibited a fast release profile while TP released in a sustained manner, which is favorable to the achievement of quick bacteria inhibition in the initial phase as well as long-term antioxidant activity during wound healing. The antioxidant activity of coaxial nanofibers was found to be increased with the increment of TP content and incubation time. The antibacterial assays against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated that the incorporation of ε-PL in the coaxial nanofibers led to strong antibacterial activity. Additionally, all the coaxial nanofibers possessed good cytocompatibility. Therefore, the prepared coaxial nanofibers simultaneously incorporated with ε-PL and TP are promising as potential wound dressing materials.

Abstract
Electrospun micro/nanofibrous membranes (EFMs) have been widely investigated as local drug delivery systems. Multiple drugs can be simultaneously incorporated into one EFM to create synergistic effects, reduce side effects, and play their respective roles in the complex physiological processes of tissue regeneration and postoperative adhesion prevention. Due to the versatile electrospinning techniques, sustained and programmed release behaviors of multiple drugs could be achieved by modulating the structure of the EFMs and the location of the drugs. In this review, various multidrug incorporation approaches based on electrospinning are overviewed. In particular, the advantages and limitations of each drug incorporation technique, the methods to control drug release and the effect of one drug release on another are discussed. Then the applications of multidrug-loaded EFMs in regenerative medicine, including wound healing, bone regeneration, vascular tissue engineering, nerve regeneration, periodontal regeneration and adhesion prevention are comprehensively reviewed. Finally, the future perspectives and challenges in the research of multidrug-loaded EFMs are discussed.

Abstract
As traditional root canal obturation leads to the loss of the biological activity of the tooth, it is necessary to develop a material that promotes the regeneration of dental tissue. However, this remains a challenging task. Our study aims to construct a mineralized material to support the proliferation and differentiation of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), and to explore a new strategy for the treatment of pulp tissue necrosis. Mineralized keratin (M-keratin), defined as keratin that has been mineralized in simulated body fluid, was first harvested to construct the root canal filling material. Characterizations indicated that new substances or components were formed on the surface of keratin particles after mineralization, and the morphology of the keratin was changed. M-keratin promoted the growth, proliferation, and differentiation of DPSCs. After cultivation with M-keratin, DPSCs exhibited more extracellular matrix proteins interacting with the culture interface, the number of these cells increased significantly, and the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl-]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide values of cells in the experimental group also increased. Meanwhile, signs that the DPSCs began to differentiate into odontoblasts were observed or detected by alizarin red S staining, ELISA, RNA-Seq, and western blot. We hope that this study will contribute to the development of a new material that promotes the regeneration of dental tissue as well as providing new ideas and strategies for the treatment of dental pulp disease.

Abstract
Electrospinning has gained constant enthusiasm and wide interest as a novel sustainable material processing technique due to its ease of operation and wide adaptability for fabricating eco-friendly fibers on a nanoscale. In addition, the device working parameters, spinning solution properties, and the environmental factors can have a significant effect on the fibers' morphology during electrospinning. This review summarizes the newly developed principles and influence factors for electrospinning technology in the past five years, including these factors' interactions with the electrospinning mechanism as well as its most recent applications of electrospun natural or sustainable composite materials in biology, environmental protection, energy, and food packaging materials.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) have been widely used for the study of bone regeneration because of their excellent physical and chemical properties, but poor biocompatibility and lack of osteoinductivity limit potential clinical applications. To overcome these limitations, and based on our previous research, CPC scaffolds were prepared with CPC as the principal material and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a porogen to introduce interconnected macropores. Using a bespoke electrospinning auxiliary receiver, silk fibroin (SF)/poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) coaxial nanofibers containing dexamethasone (DXM) and recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP2) were fabricated which were coated on the surface of the CPC. By comparing the surface morphology by SEM, hydrophilicity, results of FTIR spectroscopy, and mechanical properties of the composite materials fabricated using different electrospinning times (20, 40, 60 min), the CPC surface constructed by electrospinning for 40 min was found to exhibit the most appropriate physical and chemical properties. Therefore, composite materials were built for further study by electrospinning for 40 min. The osteogenic capacity of the SF/PLGA/CPC, SF-DXM/PLGA/CPC, and SF-DXM/PLGA-rhBMP2/CPC scaffolds was evaluated by in vitro cell culture with rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and using a rat cranial defect repair model. ALP activity, calcium deposition levels, upregulation of osteogenic genes, and bone regeneration in skull defects in rats with SF-DXM/PLGA-rhBMP2/CPC implants were significantly higher than in rats implanted with the other scaffolds. These results suggest that drug-loaded coaxial nanofiber coatings prepared on a CPC surface can continuously and effectively release bioactive drugs and further stimulate osteogenesis. Therefore, the SF-DXM/PLGA-rhBMP2/CPC scaffolds prepared in this study demonstrated the most significant potential for the treatment of bone defects.

Abstract
The key attributes of core-shell fibers are their ability to preserve bioactivity of incorporated-sensitive biomolecules (such as drug, protein, and growth factor) and subsequently control biomolecule release to the targeted microenvironments to achieve therapeutic effects. Such qualities are highly favorable for tissue engineering and drug delivery, and these features are not able to be offered by monolithic fibers. In this review, we begin with an overview on design requirement of core-shell fibers, followed by the summary of recent preparation methods of core-shell fibers, with focus on electrospinning-based techniques and other newly discovered fabrication approaches. We then highlight the importance and roles of core-shell fibers in tissue engineering and drug delivery, accompanied by thorough discussion on controllable release strategies of the incorporated bioactive molecules from the fibers. Ultimately, we touch on core-shell fibers-related challenges and offer perspectives on their future direction towards clinical applications.

Abstract
The guided tissue regeneration (GTR) membrane is a barrier intended to maintain a space for alveolar bone and periodontal ligament tissue regeneration but prevent the migration of fast-growing soft tissue into the defect sites. This study evaluated the physical properties, in vivo animal study, and clinical efficacy of hydrophilic PLA95/β-TCP GTR membranes prepared by electrospinning (ES). The morphology and cytotoxicity of ES PLA95/β-TCP membranes were evaluated by SEM and 3-(4,5-cimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) respectively. The cementum and bone height were measured by an animal study at 8 and 16 weeks after surgery. Fifteen periodontal patients were selected for the clinical trial by using a commercial product and the ES PLA95/β-TCP membrane. Radiographs and various indexes were measured six months before and after surgery. The average fiber diameter for this ES PLA95/β-TCP membrane was 2.37 ± 0.86 µm. The MTT result for the ES PLA95/β-TCP membrane showed negative for cytotoxicity. The significant differences in the cementum and bone height were observed between empty control and the ES PLA95/β-TCP membrane in the animal model (p < 0.05). Clinical trial results showed clinical attachment level (CAL) of both control and ES PLA95/β-TCP groups, with a significant difference from the pre-surgery results after six months. This study demonstrated that the ES PLA95/β-TCP membrane can be used as an alternative GTR membrane for clinical applications.

Adsorption and release kinetics of growth factors on barrier membranes for guided tissue/bone regeneration: A systematic review. Arch Oral Biol 2019; 100:57-68.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Guided bone / tissue regeneration (GBR/GTR) procedures are necessary to improve conditions for implant placement. These techniques in turn can be enhanced by using growth factors (GFs) such as bone morphogenetic protein (BMP-2) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) to accelerate regeneration. The aim of the present systematic review was to evaluate the GF loading and release kinetics of barrier membranes. STUDY DESIGN A total of 138 articles were screened in PubMed databases, and 31 meeting the inclusion criteria were included in the present systematic review. RESULTS All the articles evaluated bio-resorbable membranes, especially collagen or polymer-based membranes. In most studies, the retention and release kinetics of osteogenic GFs such as BMP-2 and PDGF were widely investigated. Growth factors were incorporated to the membranes by soaking and incubating the membranes in GF solution, followed by lyophilization, or mixing in the polymers before evaporation. Adsorption onto the membranes depended upon the membrane materials and additional reagents such as heparin, cross-linkers and GF concentration. Interestingly, most studies showed two phases of GF release from the membranes: a first phase comprising a burst release (about 1 day), followed by a second phase characterized by slower release. Furthermore, all the studies demonstrated the controlled release of sufficient concentrations of GFs from the membranes for bioactivities. CONCLUSIONS The adsorption and release kinetics varied among the different materials, forms and GFs. The combination of membrane materials, GFs and manufacturing methods should be considered for optimizing GBR/GTR procedures.

Abstract
A range of traditional and free-form fabrication technologies have been investigated and, in numerous occasions, commercialized for use in the field of regenerative tissue engineering (TE). The demand for technologies capable of treating bone defects inherently difficult to repair has been on the rise. This quest, accompanied by the advent of functionally tailored, biocompatible, and biodegradable materials, has garnered an enormous research interest in bone TE. As a result, different materials and fabrication methods have been investigated towards this end, leading to a deeper understanding of the geometrical, mechanical and biological requirements associated with bone scaffolds. As our understanding of the scaffold requirements expands, so do the capability requirements of the fabrication processes. The goal of this review is to provide a broad examination of existing scaffold fabrication processes and highlight future trends in their development. To appreciate the clinical requirements of bone scaffolds, a brief review of the biological process by which bone regenerates itself is presented first. This is followed by a summary and comparisons of commonly used implant techniques to highlight the advantages of TE-based approaches over traditional grafting methods. A detailed discussion on the clinical and mechanical requirements of bone scaffolds then follows. The remainder of the manuscript is dedicated to current scaffold fabrication methods, their unique capabilities and perceived shortcomings. The range of biomaterials employed in each fabrication method is summarized. Selected traditional and non-traditional fabrication methods are discussed with a highlight on their future potential from the authors' perspective. This study is motivated by the rapidly growing demand for effective scaffold fabrication processes capable of economically producing constructs with intricate and precisely controlled internal and external architectures. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The manuscript summarizes the current state of fabrication technologies and materials used for creating scaffolds in bone tissue engineering applications. A comprehensive analysis of different fabrication methods (traditional and free-form) were summarized in this review paper, with emphasis on recent developments in the field. The fabrication techniques suitable for creating scaffolds for tissue engineering was particularly targeted and their use in bone tissue engineering were articulated. Along with the fabrication techniques, we emphasized the choice of materials in these processes. Considering the limitations of each process, we highlighted the materials and the material properties critical in that particular process and provided a brief rational for the choice of the materials. The functional performance for bone tissue engineering are summarized for different fabrication processes and the choice of biomaterials. Finally, we provide a perspective on the future of the field, highlighting the knowledge gaps and promising avenues in pursuit of effective scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. This extensive review of the field will provide research community with a reference source for current approaches to scaffold preparation. We hope to encourage the researchers to generate next generation biomaterials to be used in these fabrication processes. By providing both advantages and disadvantage of each fabrication method in detail, new fabrication techniques might be devised that will overcome the limitations of the current approaches. These studies should facilitate the efforts of researchers interested in generating ideal scaffolds, and should have applications beyond the repair of bone tissue.

Abstract
Electrospinning promisingly fabricate mats for Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR). Due to a chronic inflammatory pathology in periodontal, it is highly desirable to develop a novel GTR mats to realize tissue regeneration under control of infection. In the study, coaxial electrospinning was firstly conducted to fabricate dual drug loaded fiber mats with core/shell structure. Naringin-loaded polyvinylpyrrolidone was designed as core fiber to enrich tissue regeneration and metronidazole-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) as shell fiber to inhibit bacterial. TEM revealed that the fibers with distinct core/shell structure were in an outer diameter of 1.5-1.7 μm with an inner diameter of <1.0 μm. The loading of dual drug decreased the tensile strength and elongation of the coaxial fiber mats. On in vitro assessment, metronidazole had a short-term release while naringin had a long-term release behavior in all the coaxial mats. The colonization of anaerobic bacteria on the mats effectively were inhibited over 21 days. Furthermore, the dual drug loaded coaxial fiber mats were observed to positively supported the adhesion and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 and was conductive to high alkaline phosphatase express. Thus, a simple and effective coaxial electrospinning approach was demonstrated for the fabrication of anti-infective GTR mats with promoting tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Long segment tracheal stenosis often has a poor prognosis due to the limited availability of materials for tracheal reconstruction. Tissue engineered tracheal patches based on electrospun scaffolds and stem cells present ideal solutions to this medical challenge. However, the established engineering process is inefficient and time-consuming. In our research, to optimize the engineering process, core-shell nanofilms encapsulating TGF-β3 were fabricated as scaffolds for tracheal patches. The morphological and mechanical characteristics, degradation and biocompatibility of poly(l-lactic acid-co-ε-caprolactone)/collagen (PLCL/collagen) scaffolds with different compositions (PLCL:collagen 75:25, 50:50 and 25:75, respectively) were comparatively evaluated to determine the preferable compositional ratio. Then the chondrogenesis-inducing potential is investigated, and tracheal patches based on electrospun scaffolds and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were constructed to restore tracheal defects in rabbit models. The results indicated that core-shell scaffolds with a PLCL/collagen proportion of 75:25 were eligible for tracheal patches. The stable and sustained release of TGF-β3 from scaffolds could efficiently promote the chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs and shorten the incubation time. Tracheal integrity was well maintained for 2 months after restoration; meanwhile, re-epithelialization also achieved. In conclusion, TGF-β3-encapsulating core-shell electrospun scaffolds with a PLCL/collagen proportion of 75:25 could be used to optimize engineering process of tracheal patches.

Abstract
Electrospinning, an electrostatic fiber fabrication technique, has attracted significant interest in recent years due to its versatility and ability to produce highly tunable nanofibrous meshes. These nanofibrous meshes have been investigated as promising tissue engineering scaffolds since they mimic the scale and morphology of the native extracellular matrix. The sub-micron diameter of fibers produced by this process presents various advantages like the high surface area to volume ratio, tunable porosity, and the ability to manipulate the nanofiber composition in order to get desired properties and functionality. Electrospun fibers can be oriented or arranged randomly, giving control over both mechanical properties and the biological response to the fibrous scaffold. Moreover, bioactive molecules can be integrated with the electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds in order to improve the cellular response. This chapter presents an overview of the developments on electrospun polymer nanofibers including processing, structure, and their applications in the field of osteochondral tissue engineering.

Abstract
GBR is currently accepted as one of the most effective approaches for bone defect regeneration relating to dental implant. Icariin is the main active ingredient in the extraction of total flavonoids from the Chinese traditional herb Epimediumbrevicornum Maxim. In this study, ICA was successfully incorporated into the nanofibers barrier membrane (ICA-SF/PLCL) as osteoinduction factor by coaxial electrospinning and was released in a sustained and controlled manner. The entire release period included two stages: an initial burst stage (47.54 ± 0.06% on 5 d) and a decreasing and constant stage (82.09 ± 1.86% on 30 d). The membrane has good biocompatibility with BMMSCs anchored and significantly promoted its osteogenic activity. Moreover, in vivo experiment, bone defect covered by ICA-SF/PLCL membrane in rat cranium were statistically repaired compare to other groups. 12 weeks after implantation, in the test group, the new bone formation spread to cover most of the defect region with volume and density of approximately 15.95 ± 3.58 mm3 and 14.02 ± 0.93%. These results demonstrated that ICA-SF/PLCL nanofibrous membrane could be a promising barrier applicated for GBR.
