Abstract
Due to the limitations of the current treatment approaches of allograft and autograft techniques, treating bone disorders is a significant challenge. To address these shortcomings, a novel biomaterial composite is required. This study presents the preparation and fabrication of a novel biomaterial composite scaffold that combines poly (D, L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA), mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG), molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), and simvastatin (Sim) to address the limitations of current bone grafting techniques of autograft and allograft. The fabricated scaffold of PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composites was developed using a low-cost hydraulic press and salt leaching method, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis confirmed the scaffolds have a pore size between 143 and 240 μm. The protein adsorption for fabricated scaffolds was increased at 24 h. The water adsorption and retention studies showed significant results on the PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composite scaffold. The biodegradation studies of the PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composite scaffold have shown 54% after 28 days. In vitro, bioactivity evaluation utilizing simulated body fluid studies confirmed the development of bone mineral hydroxyapatite on the scaffolds, which was characterized using x-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, and SEM analysis. Furthermore, the PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composite scaffold is biocompatible with C3H10T1/2 cells and expresses more alkaline phosphatase and mineralization activity. Additionally, in vivo research showed that PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim stimulates a higher rate of bone regeneration. These findings highlight the fabricated PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composite scaffold presents a promising solution for the limitations of current bone grafting techniques.

Abstract
Malignant bone tumors are characterized by severe disability rate, mortality rate, and heavy recurrence rate owing to the complex pathogenesis and insidious disease progression, which seriously affect the terminal quality of patients' lives. Photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as an attractive adjunctive treatment offering prominent hyperthermal therapeutic effects to enhance the effectiveness of surgical treatment and avoid recurrence. Simultaneously, various advanced biomaterials with photothermal capacity are currently created to address malignant bone tumors, performing distinctive biological functions, including nanomaterials, bioceramics (BC), polymers, and hydrogels et al. Furthermore, PTT-related combination therapeutic strategies can provide more significant curative benefits by reducing drug toxicity, improving tumor-killing efficiency, stimulating anti-cancer immunity, and improving immune sensitivity relative to monotherapy, even in complex tumor microenvironments (TME). This review summarizes the current advanced biomaterials applicable in PTT and relevant combination therapies on malignant bone tumors for the first time. The multiple choices of advanced biomaterials, treatment methods, and new prospects for future research in treating malignant bone tumors with PTT are generalized to provide guidance.

Abstract
Polymer-based composite scaffolds are an attractive class of biomaterials due to their suitable physical and mechanical performance as well as appropriate biological properties. When such composites contain osteoinductive ceramic nanopowders, it is possible, in principle, to stimulate the seeded cells to differentiate into osteoblasts. However, reproducibly fabricating and developing an appropriate niche for cells' activities in three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds remains a challenge using conventional fabrication techniques. Additive manufacturing provides a new strategy for the fabrication of complex 3D structures. Here, an extrusion-based 3D printing method was used to fabricate the Alginate (Alg)/Tri-calcium silicate (C3S) bone scaffolds. To improve physical and biological attributes, scaffolds were coated with gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA), a biocompatible viscose hydrogel. Conducting a combination of experimental techniques and molecular dynamics simulations, it is found that the composition ratio of Alg/C3S governs intermolecular interactions among the polymer and ceramic, affecting the product performance. Investigating the effects of various C3S amounts in the bioinks, the 90/10 composition ratio of Alg/C3S is known as the optimum content in developed bioinks. Accordingly, the printability of high-viscosity inks is boosted by improved hierarchical interactions among assemblies, which in turn leads to better nanoscale alignment in extruded macroscopic filaments. Conducting multiple tests on specimens, the GelMA-coated Alg/C3S scaffolds (with a composition ratio of 90/10) were shown to have improved mechanical qualities and cell adhesion, spreading, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation, compared to the bare scaffolds, making them better candidates for further future research. Overall, the in-silico and in vitro studies of GelMA-coated 3D-printed Alg/C3S scaffolds open new aspects for biomaterials aimed at the regeneration of large- and complicated-bone defects through modifying the extrusion-based 3D-printed constructs.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a growing public health concern worldwide. To avoid extra surgeries, developing biodegradable bone cement is critical for the treatment of osteoporosis. Herein, we designed calcium phosphate/calcium sulfate cement reinforced with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC/OPC). It presents an appropriate physicochemical performance for clinical handling. Meanwhile, CMC/OPC bone cement promotes osteogenic differentiation in vitro. Results of the immune response in vitro and in vivo confirmed that increasing the cellulose content triggered macrophage switching into the M2 phenotype and CMC/OPC exhibited significant anti-inflammation. Furthermore, in vitro and in vivo degradation demonstrated that cellulose tailors the degradation rate of composite bone cement, which achieved a linear degradation process and could degrade by more than 90% for 12 weeks. In summary, the composite bone cement CMC/OPC is a promising candidate for bone repair applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While autografts to date remain the "gold standard" for bone void fillers, synthetic bone grafts have garnered attention due to their favorable advantages such as ability to be tailored in terms of their physical and chemical properties. Bioactive glass (BG), an inorganic material, has the capacity to form a strong bond with bone by forming a bone-like apatite surface, enhancing osteogenesis. Coupled with additive manufacturing (3D printing) it is possible to maximize bone regenerative properties of the BG. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to synthesize and characterize 3D printed mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG), BG 45S5, and compare to β-Tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) based scaffolds; test cell viability and osteogenic differentiation on human osteoprogenitor cells in vitro. METHODS MBG, BG 45S5, and β-TCP were fabricated into colloidal gel suspensions, tested with a rheometer, and manufactured into scaffolds using a 3D direct-write micro-printer. The materials were characterized in terms of microstructure and composition with Thermogravimetric Analyzer/Differential Scanning Calorimeter (TGA/DSC), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Micro-Computed Tomography (μ-CT), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), and Mattauch-Herzog-Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (MH-ICP-MS). RESULTS Scaffolds were tested for cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation using human osteoprogenitor cells. Osteogenic media was used for differentiation, and immunocytochemistry for osteogenic markers Runx-2, Collagen-I, and Osteocalcin. The cell viability results after 7 days of culture yielded significantly higher (p < 0.05) results in β-TCP scaffolds compared to BG 45S5 and MBG groups. CONCLUSION All materials expressed osteogenic markers after 21 days of culture in expansion and osteogenic media.

Int J Nanomedicine 2023; 18:917-932.

Abstract
Background Repairing critical-sized bone defects secondary to traumatic or tumorous damage is a complex conundrum in clinical practice; in this case, artificial scaffolds exhibited preferable outcomes. Bredigite (BRT, Ca7MgSi4O16) bioceramic possesses excellent physicochemical properties and biological activity as a promising candidate for bone tissue engineering. Methods Structurally ordered BRT (BRT-O) scaffolds were fabricated by a three-dimensional (3D) printing technique, and the random BRT (BRT-R) scaffolds and clinically available β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds were compared as control groups. Their physicochemical properties were characterized, and RAW 264.7 cells, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), and rat cranial critical-sized bone defect models were utilized for evaluating macrophage polarization and bone regeneration. Results The BRT-O scaffolds exhibited regular morphology and homogeneous porosity. In addition, the BRT-O scaffolds released higher concentrations of ionic products based on coordinated biodegradability than the β-TCP scaffolds. In vitro, the BRT-O scaffolds facilitated RWA264.7 cells polarization to pro-healing M2 macrophage phenotype, whereas the BRT-R and β-TCP scaffolds stimulated more pro-inflammatory M1-type macrophages. A conditioned medium derived from macrophages seeding on the BRT-O scaffolds notably promoted the osteogenic lineage differentiation of BMSCs in vitro. The cell migration ability of BMSCs was significantly enhanced under the BRT-O-induced immune microenvironment. Moreover, in rat cranial critical-sized bone defect models, the BRT-O scaffolds group promoted new bone formation with a higher proportion of M2-type macrophage infiltration and expression of osteogenesis-related markers. Therefore, in vivo, BRT-O scaffolds play immunomodulatory roles in promoting critical-sized bone defects by enhancing the polarization of M2 macrophages. Conclusion 3D-printed BRT-O scaffolds can be a promising option for bone tissue engineering, at least partly through macrophage polarization and osteoimmunomodulation.

Abstract
As the need for efficient, sustainable, customizable, handy and affordable substitute materials for bone repair is critical, this systematic review aimed to assess the use and outcomes of silica-derived inks to promote in vivo bone regeneration. An algorithmic selection of articles was performed following the PRISMA guidelines and PICO method. After the initial selection, 51 articles were included. Silicon in ink formulations was mostly found to be in either the native material, but associated with a secondary role, or to be a crucial additive element used to dope an existing material. The inks and materials presented here were essentially extrusion-based 3D-printed (80%), and, overall, the most investigated animal model was the rabbit (65%) with a femoral defect (51%). Quality (ARRIVE 2.0) and risk of bias (SYRCLE) assessments outlined that although a large majority of ARRIVE items were “reported”, most risks of bias were left “unclear” due to a lack of precise information. Almost all studies, despite a broad range of strategies and formulations, reported their silica-derived material to improve bone regeneration. The rising number of publications over the past few years highlights Si as a leverage element for bone tissue engineering to closely consider in the future.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering is a rapidly developing field with potential for the regeneration of craniomaxillofacial (CMF) bones, with 3D printing being a suitable fabrication tool for patient‐specific implants. The CMF region includes a variety of different bones with distinct functions. The clinical implementation of tissue engineering concepts is currently poor, likely due to multiple reasons including the complexity of the CMF anatomy and biology, and the limited relevance of the currently used preclinical models. The ‘recapitulation of a human disease’ is a core requisite of preclinical animal models, but this aspect is often neglected, with a vast majority of studies failing to identify the specific clinical indication they are targeting and/or the rationale for choosing one animal model over another. Currently, there are no suitable guidelines that propose the most appropriate animal model to address a specific CMF pathology and no standards are established to test the efficacy of biomaterials or tissue engineered constructs in the CMF field. This review reports the current clinical scenario of CMF reconstruction, then discusses the numerous limitations of currently used preclinical animal models employed for validating 3D‐printed tissue engineered constructs and the need to reduce animal work that does not address a specific clinical question. We will highlight critical research aspects to consider, to pave a clinically driven path for the development of new tissue engineered materials for CMF reconstruction.

Abstract
In situ monitoring of tissue regeneration progression is of primary importance to basic medical research and clinical transformation. Despite significant progress in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, few technologies have been established to in situ inspect the regenerative process. Here, we present an integrated second near-infrared (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) window in vivo imaging strategy based on 3D-printed bioactive glass scaffolds doped with NIR-II ratiometric lanthanide-dye hybrid nanoprobes, allowing for in situ monitoring of the early inflammation, angiogenesis, and implant degradation during mouse skull repair. The functional bioactive glass scaffolds contribute to more effective bone regeneration because of their excellent angiogenic and osteogenic activities. The reliability of ratiometric fluorescence imaging, coupled with low autofluoresence in the NIR-II window, facilitates the accuracy of in vivo inflammation detection and high-resolution visualization of neovascularization and implant degradation in deep tissue.

Abstract
Repair of large bone defects represents a major challenge for orthopedic surgeons. The newly formed microvessels inside grafts play a crucial role in successful bone tissue engineering. Previously, an active role for mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes in blood vessel development and progression was suggested in the repair of multiple tissues. However, the reports on the application of MSC-derived exosomes in the repair of large bone defects are sparse. In this study, we encapsulated umbilical MSC-derived exosomes (uMSCEXOs) in hyaluronic acid hydrogel (HA-Gel) and combined them with customized nanohydroxyapatite/poly-ε-caprolactone (nHP) scaffolds to repair cranial defects in rats. Imaging and histological evaluation indicated that the uMSCEXOs/Gel/nHP composites markedly enhanced bone regeneration in vivo, and the uMSCEXOs might play a key role in this process. Moreover, the in vitro results demonstrated that uMSCEXOs promoted the proliferation, migration, and angiogenic differentiation of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) but did not significantly affect the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Importantly, mechanistic studies revealed that exosomal miR-21 was the potential intercellular messenger that promoted angiogenesis by upregulating the NOTCH1/DLL4 pathway. In conclusion, our findings exhibit a promising exosome-based strategy in repairing large bone defects through enhanced angiogenesis, which potentially regulated by the miR-21/NOTCH1/DLL4 signaling axis.

Abstract
Biofabrication of personalized titanium scaffold mimicking that of the osteocyte microenvironment is challenging due to its complex geometrical cues. The effect of scaffolds geometrical cues and implantation sites on osteogenesis is still not clear. In this study, personalized titanium scaffolds with homogeneous diamond-like structures mimicking that of the osteocyte microenvironment were precisely designed and fabricated by selected laser melting method. The effects of different geometric cues, including porosity, pore sizes and interconnection properties, on cellular behavior were investigated. Biomimetic mechanical properties of porous titanium alloy scaffold were predesigned and simulated by finite element analysis. In vitro experiment revealed that homogeneous diamond-like structures mimicking that of the osteocyte microenvironment triggered osteocyte adhesion and migration behavior. Typical implantation sites, including rabbit femur, beagle femur, and beagle skull, were used to study the implantation sites effects on bone regeneration. In vivo experimental results indicated that different implantation sites showed significant differences. This study helps to understand the scaffolds geometrical microenvironment and implantation sites effects on osteogenesis mechanism. And it is beneficial to the development of bone implants with better bone regeneration ability.

Abstract
The residual of malignant tumor cells and lack of bone-tissue integration are the two critical concerns of bone-tumor recurrence and surgical failure. In this work, the rational integration of 2D Ti3C2 MXene is reported with 3D-printing bioactive glass (BG) scaffolds for achieving concurrent bone-tumor killing by photonic hyperthermia and bone-tissue regeneration by bioactive scaffolds. The designed composite scaffolds take the unique feature of high photothermal conversion of integrated 2D Ti3C2 MXene for inducing bone-tumor ablation by near infrared-triggered photothermal hyperthermia, which has achieved the complete tumor eradication on in vivo bone-tumor xenografts. Importantly, the rational integration of 2D Ti3C2 MXene is demonstrated to efficiently accelerate the in vivo growth of newborn bone tissue of the composite BG scaffolds. The dual functionality of bone-tumor killing and bone-tissue regeneration makes these Ti3C2 MXene-integrated composite scaffolds highly promising for the treatment of bone tumors, which also substantially broadens the biomedical applications of 2D MXenes in tissue engineering, especially on the treatment of bone tumors.

Abstract
Scaffolds with controlled drug release are valuable for bone tissue engineering, but constructing the scaffolds with controllable dual-drug release behaviors is still a challenge. In this study, layered mesoporous bioactive glass/sodium alginate-sodium alginate (MBG/SA-SA) scaffolds with controllable dual-drug release behaviors were fabricated by 3D printing. The porosity and compressive strength of three-dimensional (3D) printed MBG/SA-SA scaffolds by cross-linking are about 78% and 4.2 MPa, respectively. As two model drugs, bovine serum albumin (BSA) and ibuprofen (IBU) were separately loaded in SA layer and MBG/SA layer, resulting in a relatively fast release of BSA and a sustained release of IBU. Furthermore, layered MBG/SA-SA scaffolds were able to stimulate human bone mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation than SA scaffolds. Hence, the 3D printed MBG/SA-SA scaffolds would be prospective for the treatment of bone defects.

Abstract
3D-printed templates are being used for bone tissue regeneration (BTR) as temporary guides. In the current review, we analyze the factors considered in producing potentially bioresorbable/degradable 3D-printed templates and their influence on BTR in calvarial bone defect (CBD) animal models. In addition, a meta-analysis was done to compare the achieved BTR for each type of template material (polymer, ceramic or composites). Database collection was completed by January 2018, and the inclusion criteria were all titles and keywords combining 3D printing and BTR in CBD models. Clinical trials and poorly-documented in vivo studies were excluded from this study. A total of 45 relevant studies were finally included and reviewed, and an additional check list was followed before inclusion in the meta-analysis, where material type, porosity %, and the regenerated bone area were collected and analyzed statistically. Overall, the capacity of the printed templates to support BTR was found to depend in large part on the amount of available space (porosity %) provided by the printed templates. Printed ceramic and composite templates showed the best BTR capacity, and the optimum printed template structure was found to have total porosity >50% with a pore diameter between 300 and 400 µm. Additional features and engineered macro-channels within the printed templates increased BTR capacity at long time points (12 weeks). Although the size of bone defects in rabbits was larger than in rats, BTR was greater in rabbits (almost double) at all time points and for all materials used. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In the present study, we reviewed the factors considered in producing degradable 3D-printed templates and their influence on bone tissue regeneration (BTR) in calvarial bone defects through the last 15 years. A meta-analysis was applied on the collected data to quantify and analyze BTR related to each type of template material. The concluded data states the importance of 3D-printed templates for BTR and indicates the ideal design required for an effective clinical translation. The evidence-based guidelines for the best BTR capacity endorse the use of printed composite and ceramic templates with total porosity >50%, pore diameter between 300 and 400 µm, and added engineered macro-channels within the printed templates.

Abstract
The fabrication of bone tissue engineering scaffolds with high osteogenic ability and favorable mechanical properties is of huge interest. In this study, a silk fibroin (SF) solution of 30 wt% was extracted from cocoons and combined with mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) to fabricate MBG/SF composite scaffolds by 3D printing. The porosity, compressive strength, degradation and apatite forming ability were evaluated. The results illustrated that MBG/SF scaffolds had superior compressive strength (ca. 20 MPa) and good biocompatibility, and stimulated bone formation ability compared to mesoporous bioactive glass/polycaprolactone (MBG/PCL) scaffolds. We subcutaneously transplanted hBMSCs-loaded MBG/SF and MBG/PCL scaffolds into the back of nude mice to evaluate heterotopic bone formation assay in vivo, and the results revealed that the gene expression levels of common osteogenic biomarkers on MBG/SF scaffolds were significantly better than MBG/PCL scaffolds. These results showed that 3D-printed MBG/SF composite scaffolds are great promising for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Silicate bioceramic scaffolds are of great interest in bone tissue engineering, but the fabrication of silicate bioceramic scaffolds with complex geometries is still challenging. In this study, three-dimensional (3D) porous β-Ca2SiO4 scaffolds have been successfully fabricated from preceramic resin loaded with CaCO3 active filler by 3D printing. The fabricated β-Ca2SiO4 scaffolds had uniform interconnected macropores (ca. 400 μm), high porosity (>78%), enhanced mechanical strength (ca. 5.2 MPa), and excellent apatite mineralization ability. Importantly, the results showed that the increase of sintering temperature significantly enhanced the compressive strength and the scaffolds sintered at higher sintering temperature stimulated the adhesion, proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity, and osteogenic-related gene expression of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells. Therefore, the 3D printed β-Ca2SiO4 scaffolds derived from preceramic resin and CaCO3 active fillers would be promising candidates for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The incidence of bone disorders, from trauma, tissue degeneration due to ageing, pathological conditions to cancer, has been increasing. The pursuit for bone graft substitutes to assist in regenerating large bone defects is ever growing as a result of the shortage in conventional autografts and allografts, in addition to the associated risks of disease transmission. However, the use of alloplastic biomaterials is limited in clinical settings, as further investigations are required to address the properties of synthetic grafts to mimic the native bone tissue and deliver desirable biomolecules to facilitate bone regeneration. This review discusses the fundamental structure and properties of bone with the emphasis on organic and inorganic components that are important for the biomaterial design. The main focus will be on the advancement and usage of bioactive glass (BG) for bone tissue engineering due to its similarity to the natural inorganic constituent of bone. The various BG synthetic processes, modifications of composition, as well as the biomolecule delivery will be discussed in great detail. As the properties of BG are tuneable according to clinical needs, it creates a new paradigm in addition to displaying its superior potential for bone tissue engineering and translational medicine in the field of orthopedic surgery. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Bioactive glass scaffolds (BGS) of 45S5 composition exhibit desired bioactivity, osteogenesis, and angiogenesis potential, being promising biomaterials for bone repair/regeneration. Natural polymer-based coatings, e.g., gelatin coating, are effective to enhance the mechanical properties of BGS. However, the presence of a coating may reduce the bioactivity and osteogenesis activity of the scaffolds. To address the issue of reduced osteogenic properties induced by polymer coatings, in this study, we incorporated Cu-containing bioactive glass nanoparticles (Cu-BGN: 95SiO2-2.5CaO-2.5CuO, in mol %), as bioactive fillers, into the gelatin coating. The bioactivity (apatite-forming ability) of the gelatin coated BGS was improved after the incorporation of Cu-BGN in the coating. Hydroxyapatite could form on the Cu-BGN/gelatin nanocomposite coated BGS within 1 day of immersion in simulated body fluid. The osteogenic activity as indicated by the ALP activity of MC3T3-E1 cells on the coated BGS was also significantly enhanced after the incorporation of Cu-BGN. In addition, the incorporation of Cu-BGN in the coating did not affect the highly porous and interconnected pore structure of BGS while the mechanical improvement induced by the gelatin coating remained after the addition of Cu-BGN. The attachment of MC3T3-E1 cells on the scaffolds was not influenced by the presence of Cu-BGN in the gelatin coating, while the cell proliferation was enhanced. In conclusion, the incorporation of bioactive nanoparticles into polymer coating is presented as a solution to the reduced bioactivity and osteogenic activity of polymer coated 45S5 BGS. The Cu-BGN/gelatin nanocomposite coated BGS exhibiting high bioactivity, appropriate mechanical properties, and osteogenic potential are candidate biomaterials for bone tissue engineering/regeneration.

Abstract
It is difficult to achieve self-healing outcoming for the osteochondral defects caused by degenerative diseases. The simultaneous regeneration of both cartilage and subchondral bone tissues is an effective therapeutic strategy for osteochondral defects. However, it is challenging to design a single type of bioscaffold with suitable ionic components and beneficial osteo/chondral-stimulation ability for regeneration of osteochondral defects. In this study, we successfully synthesized a pure-phase lithium calcium silicate (Li2Ca4Si4O13, L2C4S4) bioceramic by a sol-gel method, and further prepared L2C4S4 scaffolds by using a 3D-printing method. The compressive strength of L2C4S4 scaffolds could be well controlled in the range of 15-40 MPa when pore size varied from 170 to 400 μm. L2C4S4 scaffolds have been demonstrated to possess controlled biodegradability and good apatite-mineralization ability. At a certain concentration range, the ionic products from L2C4S4 significantly stimulated the proliferation and maturation of chondrocytes, as well as promoted the osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs. L2C4S4 scaffolds simultaneously promoted the regeneration of both cartilage and subchondral bone as compared to pure β-TCP scaffolds in rabbit osteochondral defects. These findings suggest that 3D-printed L2C4S4 scaffolds with such specific ionic combination, high mechanical strength and good degradability as well as dual bioactivities, represent a promising biomaterial for osteochondral interface reconstruction.

Abstract
The development of biomaterials with high osteogenic ability for fast osteointegration with a host bone is of great interest. In this study, pearl/CaSO4 composite scaffolds were fabricated using three-dimensional (3D) printing, followed by a hydration process. The pearl/CaSO4 scaffolds showed uniform interconnected macropores (∼400 μm), high porosity (∼60%), and enhanced compressive strength. With CaSO4 scaffolds as a control, the biological properties of the pearl/CaSO4 scaffolds were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that the pearl/CaSO4 scaffolds possessed a good apatite-forming ability and stimulated the proliferation and differentiation of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs), as well as giving a better expression of related osteogenic genes. Importantly, micro-computed tomography and histology of the critical-sized rabbit femoral condyle defects implanted with the scaffolds illustrated the osteogenic capacity of the pearl/CaSO4 scaffolds. New bone was observed within 8 weeks. The bone-implant contact index was significantly higher for the pearl/CaSO4 scaffolds implant than for the CaSO4 scaffolds implant, indicating that the pearl/CaSO4 scaffolds would be promising implants for bone regeneration.
