Abstract
The present work aims to develop optimized scaffolds for bone repair by incorporating mesoporous nanoparticles into them, thereby combining bioactive factors for cell growth and preventing rapid release or loss of effectiveness. We synthesized biocompatible and biodegradable scaffolds designed for the controlled codelivery of curcumin (CUR) and recombinant human bone morphogenic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). Active agents in dendritic silica/titania mesoporous nanoparticles (DSTNs) were incorporated at different weight percentages (0, 2, 5, 7, 9, and 10 wt %) into a matrix of polycaprolactone (PCL) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) nanofibers, forming the CUR-BMP-2@DSTNs/PCL-PEG delivery system (S0, S2, S5, S7, S9, and S10, respectively, with the number showing the weight percentage). To enhance the formation process, the system was treated using low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS). Different advanced methods were employed to assess the physical, chemical, and mechanical characteristics of the fabricated scaffolds, all confirming that incorporating the nanoparticles improves their mechanical and structural properties. Their hydrophilicity increased by approximately 25%, leading to ca. 53% enhancement in their water absorption capacity. Furthermore, we observed a sustained release of approximately 97% for CUR and 70% for BMP-2 for the S7 (scaffold with 7 wt % DSTNs) over 28 days, which was further enhanced using ultrasound. In vitro studies demonstrated accelerated scaffold biodegradation, with the highest level observed in S7 scaffolds, approximately three times higher than the control group. Moreover, the cell viability and proliferation on DSTNs-containing scaffolds increased when compared to the control group. Overall, our study presents a promising nanocomposite scaffold design with notable improvements in structural, mechanical, and biological properties compared to the control group, along with controlled and sustained drug release capabilities. This makes the scaffold a compelling candidate for advanced bone tissue engineering and regenerative therapies.

Abstract
With the rising prevalence of bone-related injuries, it is crucial to improve treatments for fractures and defects. Tissue engineering offers a promising solution in the form of injectable hydrogel scaffolds that can sustain the release of growth factors like bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) for bone repair. Recently, we discovered that tetra-PEG hydrogels (Tetra gels) undergo gel-gel phase separation (GGPS) at low polymer content, resulting in hydrophobicity and tissue affinity. In this work, we examined the potential of a newer class of gel, the oligo-tetra-PEG gel (Oligo gel), as a growth factor-releasing scaffold. We investigated the extent of GGPS occurring in the two gels and assessed their ability to sustain BMP-2 release and osteogenic potential in a mouse calvarial defect model. The Oligo gel underwent a greater degree of GGPS than the Tetra gel, exhibiting higher turbidity, hydrophobicity, and pore formation. The Oligo gel demonstrated sustained protein or growth factor release over a 21-day period from protein release kinetics and osteogenic cell differentiation studies. Finally, BMP-2-loaded Oligo gels achieved complete regeneration of critical-sized calvarial defects within 28 days, significantly outperforming Tetra gels. The easy formulation, injectability, and capacity for sustained release makes the Oligo gel a promising candidate therapeutic biomaterial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) is an appealing osteogenic and chondrogenic growth factor for promoting tendon-bone healing. Recently, it has been reported that soluble vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 1 (sVEGFR1) (a VEGF receptor antagonist) could enhance BMP2-induced bone repair and cartilage regeneration; thus, their combined application may represent a promising treatment to improve tendon-bone healing. Moreover, BMP2 could stimulate skeletal stem cell (SSC) expansion and formation, which is responsible for wounded tendon-bone interface repair. However, whether the codelivery of BMP2 and sVEGFR1 increases tendon enthesis injury-activated SSCs better than does BMP2 alone needs further research. PURPOSE To study the effect of BMP2 combined with sVEGFR1 on tendon-bone healing and injury-activated SSC lineage. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS A total of 128 C57BL/6 mice that underwent unilateral supraspinatus tendon detachment and repair were randomly assigned to 4 groups: (1) untreated control group; (2) hydrogel group, which received a local injection of the blank hydrogel at the injured site; (3) BMP2 group, which received an injection of hydrogel with BMP2; and (4) BMP2 with sVEGFR1 group, which received an injection of hydrogel with BMP2 and sVEGFR1. Histology, micro-computed tomography, and biomechanical tests were conducted to evaluate tendon-bone healing at 4 and 8 weeks after surgery. In addition, flow cytometry was performed to detect the proportion of SSCs and their downstream differentiated subtypes, including bone, cartilage, and stromal progenitors; osteoprogenitors; and pro-chondrogenic progenitors within supraspinatus tendon enthesis at 1 week postoperatively. RESULTS The repaired interface in BMP2 with sVEGFR1 group showed a significantly improved collagen fiber continuity, increased fibrocartilage, greater newly formed bone, and elevated mechanical properties compared with the other 3 groups. There were more SSCs; bone, cartilage, and stromal progenitors; osteoprogenitors; and pro-chondrogenic progenitors in the BMP2 with sVEGFR1 group than that in the other groups. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that the combined delivery of BMP2 and sVEGFR1 could promote tendon-bone healing and stimulate the expansion of SSCs and their downstream progeny within the injured tendon-bone interface. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Combining BMP2 with sVEGFR1 may be a good clinical treatment for wounded tendon enthesis healing.

Abstract
Growth factors play a crucial role in regulating a broad variety of biological processes and are regarded as powerful therapeutic agents in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in the past decades. However, their application is limited by their short half-lives and potential side effects in physiological environments. Hydrogels are identified as having the promising potential to prolong the half-lives of growth factors and mitigate their adverse effects by restricting them within the matrix to reduce their rapid proteolysis, burst release, and unwanted diffusion. This review discusses recent progress in the development of growth factor-containing hydrogels for various biomedical applications, including wound healing, brain tissue repair, cartilage and bone regeneration, and spinal cord injury repair. In addition, the review introduces strategies for optimizing growth factor release including affinity-based delivery, carrier-assisted delivery, stimuli-responsive delivery, spatial structure-based delivery, and cellular system-based delivery. Finally, the review presents current limitations and future research directions for growth factor-delivering hydrogels.

Abstract
Bone has the rare capability of scarless regeneration that enables the complete restoration of the injured bone area. In recent decades, promising new technologies have emerged from basic, translational and clinical research for fracture treatment; however, 5-10 % of all bone fractures still fail to heal successfully or heal in a delayed manner. Several comorbidities and risk factors have been identified which impair bone healing and might lead to delayed bone union or non-union. Therefore, a considerable amount of research has been conducted to elucidate molecular mechanisms of successful and delayed fracture healing to gain further insights into this complex process. One focus of recent research is to investigate the complex interactions of different cell types and the action of progenitor cells during the healing process. Of particular interest is also the identification of patient-specific comorbidities and how these affect fracture healing. In this review, we discuss the recent knowledge about progenitor cells for long bone repair and the influence of comorbidities such as diabetes, postmenopausal osteoporosis, and chronic stress on the healing process. The topic selection for this review was made based on the presented studies at the 2022 annual meeting of the European Calcified Tissue Society (ECTS) in Helsinki.

Abstract
With the in-depth understanding of bone regeneration mechanisms and the development of bone tissue engineering, a variety of scaffold carrier materials with desirable physicochemical properties and biological functions have recently emerged in the field of bone regeneration. Hydrogels are being increasingly used in the field of bone regeneration and tissue engineering because of their biocompatibility, unique swelling properties, and relative ease of fabrication. Hydrogel drug delivery systems comprise cells, cytokines, an extracellular matrix, and small molecule nucleotides, which have different properties depending on their chemical or physical cross-linking. Additionally, hydrogels can be designed for different types of drug delivery for specific applications. In this paper, we summarize recent research in the field of bone regeneration using hydrogels as delivery carriers, detail the application of hydrogels in bone defect diseases and their mechanisms, and discuss future research directions of hydrogel drug delivery systems in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Successful repair of large bone defects remains a clinical challenge. Following fractures, a bridging hematoma immediately forms as a crucial step that initiates bone healing. In larger bone defects the micro-architecture and biological properties of this hematoma are compromised, and spontaneous union cannot occur. To address this need, we developed an ex vivo Biomimetic Hematoma that resembles naturally healing fracture hematoma, using whole blood and the natural coagulants calcium and thrombin, as an autologous delivery vehicle for a very reduced dose of rhBMP-2. When implanted into a rat femoral large defect model, complete and consistent bone regeneration with superior bone quality was achieved with 10-20× less rhBMP-2 compared to that required with the collagen sponges currently used. Moreover, calcium and rhBMP-2 demonstrated a synergistic effect enhancing osteogenic differentiation, and fully restored mechanical strength 8 weeks after surgery. Collectively, these findings suggest the Biomimetic Hematoma provides a natural reservoir for rhBMP-2, and that retention of the protein within the scaffold rather than its sustained release might be responsible for more robust and rapid bone healing. Clinically, this new implant, using FDA-approved components, would not only reduce the risk of adverse events associated with BMPs, but also decrease treatment costs and nonunion rates.

Abstract
Drug delivery systems composed of osteogenic substances and biological materials are of great significance in enhancing bone regeneration, and appropriate biological carriers are the cornerstone for their construction. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is favored in bone tissue engineering due to its good biocompatibility and hydrophilicity. When combined with other substances, the physicochemical properties of PEG-based hydrogels fully meet the requirements of drug delivery carriers. Therefore, this paper reviews the application of PEG-based hydrogels in the treatment of bone defects. The advantages and disadvantages of PEG as a carrier are analyzed, and various modification methods of PEG hydrogels are summarized. On this basis, the application of PEG-based hydrogel drug delivery systems in promoting bone regeneration in recent years is summarized. Finally, the shortcomings and future developments of PEG-based hydrogel drug delivery systems are discussed. This review provides a theoretical basis and fabrication strategy for the application of PEG-based composite drug delivery systems in local bone defects.

Abstract
The regeneration strategy for bone defects is greatly limited by the bone microenvironment, and excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) seriously hinder the formation of new bone. Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is expected to meet the requirements because of its ability to scavenge free radicals through electron transfer. Antioxidant hydrogels based on gelatine methacrylate (GM), acrylyl-β-cyclodextrin (Ac-CD), and rGO functionalized with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) are developed for skull defect regeneration, but the mechanism of how rGO-based hydrogels enhance bone repair remains unclear. In this work, it is confirmed that the GM/Ac-CD/rGO hydrogel has good antioxidant capacity, and promotes osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The rGO-based hydrogel affects ZEB1/Notch1 to promote tube formation. Furthermore, two-photon laser scanning microscopy is used to observe the ROS in a skull defect. The rGO-based hydrogel promotes type H vessel formation in a skull defect. In conclusion, the hydrogel neutralizes ROS in the vicinity of a skull defect and stimulates ZEB1/Notch1 to promote the coupling of osteogenesis and angiogenesis, which may be a possible approach for bone regeneration.

Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) is an essential growth factor in osteogenesis, but the efficacy of the BMP-2-based strategy on the bone regeneration of mandibular defects has not been well-investigated. In addition, the underlying mechanisms of BMP-2 that drives the bone formation in mandibular defects remain to be clarified. Here, we utilized BMP-2-loaded hydrogel to augment bone formation in a critical-size mandibular defect model in rats. We found that implantation of BMP-2-loaded hydrogel significantly promoted intramembranous ossification within the defect. The region with new bone triggered by BMP-2 harbored abundant CD31+ endomucin+ type H vessels and associated osterix (Osx)+ osteoprogenitor cells. Intriguingly, the new bone comprised large numbers of skeletal stem cells (SSCs) (CD51+ CD200+) and their multi-potent descendants (CD51+ CD105+), which were mainly distributed adjacent to the invaded blood vessels, after implantation of the BMP-2-loaded hydrogel. Meanwhile, BMP-2 further elevated the fraction of CD51+ CD105+ SSC descendants. Overall, the evidence indicates that BMP-2 may recapitulate a close interaction between functional vessels and SSCs. We conclude that BMP-2 augmented coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis in a novel and indispensable way to improve bone regeneration in mandibular defects, and warrants clinical investigation and application.

The use of heparin/polycation coacervate sustain release system to compare the bone regenerative potentials of 5 BMPs using a critical sized calvarial bone defect model. Biomaterials 2022; 288:121708. [PMID: 36031459 PMCID: PMC10129760 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2022.121708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2020] [Revised: 07/01/2022] [Accepted: 07/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Nonunion following bone fracture and segmental bone defects are challenging clinical conditions. To combat this clinical dilemma, development of new bone tissue engineering therapies using biocompatible materials to deliver bone growth factors is desirable. This aim of this study is to use a heparin/polycation coacervate sustained-release platform to compare 5 bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) for promoting bone defect healing in a critical sized calvarial defect model. The in vitro 3D osteogenic pellet cultures assays demonstrated that BMPs 2, 4, 6, 7 and 9 all enhanced mineralization in vitro compared to the control group. BMP2 resulted in higher mineralized volume than BMP4 and BMP6. All BMPs and the control group activated the pSMAD5 signaling pathway and expressed osterix (OSX). The binding of BMP2 with coacervate significantly increased the coacervate average particle size. BMP2, 4, 6, & 7 bound to coacervate significantly increased the Zeta potential of the coacervate while BMP9 binding showed insignificant increase. Furthermore, using a monolayer culture osteogenic assay, it was found that hMDSCs cultured in the coacervate BMP2 osteogenic medium expressed higher levels of RUNX2, OSX, ALP and COX-2 compared to the control and BMPs 4, 6, 7 & 9. Additionally, the coacervate complex can be loaded with up to 2 μg of BMP proteins for sustained release. In vivo, when BMPs were delivered using the coacervate sustained release system, BMP2 was identified to be the most potent BMP promoting bone regeneration and regenerated 10 times of new bone than BMPs 4, 6 & 9. BMP7 also stimulated robust bone regeneration when compared to BMPs 4, 6 & 9. The quality of the newly regenerated bone by all BMPs delivered by coacervate is equivalent to the host bone consisting of bone matrix and bone marrow with normal bone architecture. Although the defect was not completely healed at 6 weeks, coacervate sustain release BMPs, particularly BMP2 and BMP7, could represent a new strategy for treatment of bone defects and non-unions.

Abstract
In clinical treatment, the bone regeneration of critical-size defects is desiderated to be solved, and the regeneration of large bone segment defects depends on early vascularization. Therefore, overcoming insufficient vascularization in artificial bone grafts may be a promising strategy for critical-size bone regeneration. Herein, a novel dual-drug programmed releasing electrospinning fibrous mat (EFM) with a deferoxamine (DFO)-loaded shell layer and a dexamethasone (DEX)-loaded core layer is fabricated using coaxial electrospinning technology, considering the temporal sequence of vascularization and bone repair. DFO acts as an angiogenesis promoter and DEX is used as an osteogenesis inducer. The results demonstrate that the early and rapid release of DFO promotes angiogenesis in human umbilical vascular endothelial cells and the sustained release of DEX enhances the osteogenic differentiation of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells. DFO and DEX exert synergetic effects on osteogenic differentiation via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, and the dual-drug programmed releasing EFM acquired perfect vascularized bone regeneration ability in a rat calvarial defect model. Overall, the study suggests a low-cost strategy to enhance vascularized bone regeneration by adjusting the behavior of angiogenesis and osteogenesis in time dimension.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The reason for the absence of fetal membrane (FM) healing after a fetoscopic intervention is not known. We hypothesize that the lack of robust miniaturized models to study preterm FM functions is currently hampering the development of new treatments for FM healing. Specifically, miniaturized models to study preterm FM healing with minimal amounts of tissue are currently lacking. METHODS In this study, we collected FMs from planned cesarean deliveries and developed different ex vivo models with an engineered biomaterial to study FM healing. Then, the effect of PDGF-BB on the migration of cells from preterm and term FMs was evaluated. RESULTS FMs could be viably cultured ex vivo for 14 days. In a model of punctured FMs, migration of cells into FM defects was less pronounced than migration out of the tissue into the biomaterial. In a miniaturized model of preterm cell migration, PDGF-BB promoted migration of preterm amnion cells into the biomaterial. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION By using a novel miniaturized model of preterm tissue, we here successfully demonstrate that PDGF-BB can promote preterm FM cell migration of microtissues encapsulated in a three-dimensional environment.

Abstract
We report an unprecedented quantitative high coverage of the human amnion proteome. We identified novel proteins that hold great promise for understanding fetal membrane biology. Together, this comprehensive proteome provides a basis for the evaluation of pre-term or diseased fetal membranes.
The loss of fetal membrane (FM) integrity and function at an early time point during pregnancy can have devastating consequences for the fetus and the newborn. However, biomaterials for preventive sealing and healing of FMs are currently non-existing, which can be partly attributed to the current fragmentary knowledge of FM biology. Despite recent advances in proteomics analysis, a robust and comprehensive description of the amnion proteome is currently lacking. Here, by an optimized protein sample preparation and offline fractionation before liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis, we present a characterization of the healthy human term amnion proteome, which covers more than 40% of the previously reported transcripts in similar RNA sequencing datasets and, with more than 5000 identifications, greatly outnumbers previous reports. Together, beyond providing a basis for the study of compromised and preterm ruptured FMs, this comprehensive human amnion proteome is a stepping-stone for the development of novel healing-inducing biomaterials. The proteomic dataset has been deposited in the ProteomeXchange Consortium with the identifier PXD019410.

Abstract
The failure to repair critical-sized bone defects often leads to incomplete regeneration or fracture non-union. Tissue-engineered grafts have been recognized as an alternative strategy for bone regeneration due to their potential to repair defects. To design a successful tissue-engineered graft requires the understanding of physicochemical optimization to mimic the composition and structure of native bone, as well as the biological strategies of mimicking the key biological elements during bone regeneration process. This review provides an overview of engineered graft-based strategies focusing on physicochemical properties of materials and graft structure optimization from macroscale to nanoscale to further boost bone regeneration, and it summarizes biological strategies which mainly focus on growth factors following bone regeneration pattern and stem cell-based strategies for more efficient repair. Finally, it discusses the current limitations of existing strategies upon bone repair and highlights a promising strategy for rapid bone regeneration.

Abstract
AIMS Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration (IDD), a common musculoskeletal disease with limited self-healing ability, is challenging to treat. The development of innovative therapies to reverse IDD depends on the elucidation of its regulatory mechanisms. Therefore, the role of Src homology region 2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP2) in the pathogenesis of IDD and the therapeutic effect of its small-molecule inhibitor, SHP099, were investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS The expression of SHP2 by nucleus pulposus (NP) cells in IVD was investigated in vitro and in vivo, and its molecular mechanism in IDD was explored using transfection technology. Injectable N-isopropylacrylamide-based thermosensitive hydrogels were synthesized for SHP099 delivery. KEY FINDINGS SHP2 was highly expressed in degenerated IVDs, where its overexpression in NP cells inhibited the expression of Sry-related HMG box-9 (Sox9), leading to the decreased expression of key proteins (collagen II and aggrecan) and consequently to IDD. SHP099 reversed the degeneration of NP cells in vitro. Moreover, its administration in rats via the injectable thermosensitive hydrogel had a therapeutic effect on IDD. SIGNIFICANCE Our results suggest that SHP2 is a key factor in IDD progression, and SHP099 inhibits both its expression and NP cell degeneration. Therefore, SHP099 delivery via injectable thermosensitive hydrogels is a potential treatment strategy for IDD.

Abstract
Cannulated screws, containing an internal hole for inserting a guide pin, are commonly used in the management of bone fractures. Cannulated Mg screws can be biodegraded easily because their increased surface area including that of the inner hole rapidly reacts with body fluids. To delay biodegradation of cannulated Mg screws and improve bone regeneration, we developed a specific type of screw by injecting it with gelatin hydrogels [10 wt % gelatin(gel) with 0.09 v/v % glutaraldehyde (cross-linker)] containing different concentrations (5, 10, or 25 μg/mL) of bone morphogenic proteins (BMPs). We analyzed the properties and biocompatibility of the screws with and without BMP-2 and found that the release rate of BMP-2 in the hydrogel changed proportionately with the degradation rate of the cross-linked hydrogel. Loading BMP-2 in the hydrogel resulted in sustained release of BMP-2 for 25 to 40 days or more. The degradation rate of BMP-2 hydrogels was inversely proportional to the concentration of BMP-2. The injection of the hydrogels in the cannulated screw delayed biodegradation inside of the screw by simulated body fluid. It also induced uniform corrosion and the precipitation of bioactive compounds onto the surface of the screw. In addition, osteoblast proliferation was very active near the BMP-2 hydrogels, depending on the BMP-2 concentration. The BMP-2 in the hydrogel improved cell differentiation. The cannulated screw injected with 10 μL/mL BMP-2 hydrogel prevented implant biodegradation and enhanced osteoconduction and osteointegration inside and outside the screw. In addition, the properties of BMP-2-loaded hydrogels can be changed by controlling the amount of the cross-linker and protein, which could be useful for tissue regeneration in other fields.

Abstract
Periosteum orchestrates bone repair. Previously developed artificial periosteum was mainly focusing on materials modification to simply enhance bone formation, but few were attempting to make the artificial periosteum fit different bone repair stages. Here, we constructed a functionalized periosteum, which was composed of an electrospun scaffold grafted with leptin receptor antibody (LepR-a) and BMP2-loaded hollow MnO2 (h-MnO2) nanoparticles through a polydopamine (PDA)-assisted technique. The bionic periosteum showed suitable mechanical properties and favorable biocompatibility. It effectively recruited skeletal stem cells (SSCs) through antigen-antibody interactions, as in in vitro cell adhesion tests, we observed that more SSCs attached to the LepR-a-grafted periosteum compared to the control group. In vivo, the LepR-a-grafted periosteum covered on the cranial defect in Prx1-Cre/ERT2, -EGFP mice recruited more Prx1-EGFP cells to the fracture site compared to control groups at post-surgery day 3, 7, and 14. Co-staining with Sp7 indicated that most of the recruited Prx1-EGFP cells underwent osteogenic lineage commitment. Sustained BMP2 release from h-MnO2 promoted osteogenesis by accelerating the osteogenic differentiation of recruited SSCs, as demonstrated by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alizarin red staining (ARS) in vitro and microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) in vivo. Interestingly, we also observed the growth of osteogenic coupled capillaries (CD31hiEmcnhi) in the bone repair site, which might be induced by increased platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) in the regenerative microenvironment subsequent to SSCs' differentiation. Taken together, the findings from this study indicate that the multifunctionalized periosteum efficiently recruited and motivated the SSCs in vivo and orchestrated the osteogenic microenvironment for bone repair in a sequence manner. Thus, the construction of the bionic periosteum to couple with natural bone regeneration stages has been demonstrated to be effective in facilitating bone healing.

Abstract
The treatment of bone defects with recombinant bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) requires high doses precluding broad clinical application. Here, a bioengineering approach is presented that strongly improves low-dose BMP-2-based bone regeneration by mobilizing healing-associated mesenchymal progenitor cells (MPCs). Smart synthetic hydrogels are used to trap and study endogenous MPCs trafficking to bone defects. Hydrogel-trapped and prospectively isolated MPCs differentiate into multiple lineages in vitro and form bone in vivo. In vitro screenings reveal that platelet-derived growth factor BB (PDGF-BB) strongly recruits prospective MPCs making it a promising candidate for the engineering of hydrogels that enrich endogenous MPCs in vivo. However, PDGF-BB inhibits BMP-2-mediated osteogenesis both in vitro and in vivo. In contrast, smart two-way dynamic release hydrogels with fast-release of PDGF-BB and sustained delivery of BMP-2 beneficially promote the healing of bone defects. Collectively, it is shown that modulating the dynamics of endogenous progenitor cells in vivo by smart synthetic hydrogels significantly improves bone healing and holds great potential for other advanced applications in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Grafting bone substitute is paramount to prevent the alveolar ridge resorption after tooth extraction and facilitate the subsequent implant treatment. An ideal bone substitute should acquire the excellent osteogenic property, more importantly, possess the suitable remodeling rate in balance with bone formation and desirable clinical manageability. However, none of bone substitute is simultaneously characterized by these features, and currently, the limited remodeling property leads to the excessive waiting time before implantation. Enlightened by woven bone, the transitional tissue that is able to induce osteogenesis during bone healing could be easily remodeled within a short period and depend on the favorable injectability of hydrogel, an injectable woven bone-like hydrogel (IWBLH) was constructed in this study to address the above problems. To mimic the component and hierarchical structure of woven bone, amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) and mineralized collagen fibril were synthesized and compounded with alginate to form IWBLHs with various ratio. Screened by physiochemical characterization and in vitro biological assays, an optimal IWBLH was selected and further explored in rat model of tooth extraction. Compared with the most widely used bone substitute, we showed that IWBLH could be easily handled to fully fill the tooth socket, perform a comparable function to prevent the alveolar bone resorption, and completely remodeled within 4 weeks. This IWBLH stands as a promising candidate for alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) in future.
