Abstract
Bone is a highly vascularized tissue, and the ability of magnesium (Mg) to promote osteogenesis and angiogenesis has been widely studied. The aim of bone tissue engineering is to repair bone tissue defects and restore its normal function. Various Mg-enriched materials that can promote angiogenesis and osteogenesis have been made. Here, we introduce several types of orthopedic clinical uses of Mg; recent advances in the study of metal materials releasing Mg ions (pure Mg, Mg alloy, coated Mg, Mg-rich composite, ceramic, and hydrogel) are reviewed. Most studies suggest that Mg can enhance vascularized osteogenesis in bone defect areas. Additionally, we summarized some research on the mechanisms related to vascularized osteogenesis. In addition, the experimental strategies for the research of Mg-enriched materials in the future are put forward, in which clarifying the specific mechanism of promoting angiogenesis is the crux.

Abstract
Orbital bone damage (OBD) may result in severe post-traumatic enophthalmos, craniomaxillofacial deformities, vision loss, and intracranial infections. However, it is still a challenge to fabricate advanced biomaterials that can match the individual anatomical structure and enhance OBD repair in situ. Herein, we aimed to develop a selective surface modification strategy on bioceramic scaffolds and evaluated the effects of inorganic or organic functional coating on angiogenesis and osteogenesis, ectopically and orthotopically in OBD models. It was shown that the low thermal bioactive glass (BG) modification or layer-by-layer assembly of a biomimetic hydrogel (Biogel) could readily integrate into the pore wall of the bioceramic scaffolds. The BG and Biogel modification showed appreciable enhancement in the initial compressive strength (∼30-75%) or structural stability in vivo, respectively. BG modification could enhance by nearly 2-fold the vessel ingrowth, and the osteogenic capacity was also accelerated, accompanied with a mild scaffold biodegradation after 3 months. Meanwhile, the Biogel-modified scaffolds showed enhanced osteogenic differentiation and mineralization through calcium and phosphorus retention. The potential mechanism of the enhanced bone repair was elucidated via vascular and osteogenic cell responses in vitro, and the cell tests indicated that the Biogel and BG functional layers were both beneficial for in vitro osteoblastic differentiation and mineralization on bioceramics. Totally, these findings demonstrated that the bioactive ions or biomolecules could significantly improve the angiogenic and osteogenic capabilities of conventional bioceramics, and the integration of inorganic or organic functional coating in the pore wall is a highly flexible material toolbox that can be tailored directly to improve orbital bone defect repair.

Abstract
Large-sized bone defects are a great challenge in clinics and considerably impair the quality of patients' daily life. Tissue engineering strategies using cells, scaffolds, and bioactive molecules to regulate the microenvironment in bone regeneration is a promising approach. Zinc, magnesium, and iron ions are natural elements in bone tissue and participate in many physiological processes of bone metabolism and therefore have great potential for bone tissue engineering and regeneration. In this review, we performed a systematic analysis on the effects of zinc, magnesium, and iron ions in bone tissue engineering. We focus on the role of these ions in properties of scaffolds (mechanical strength, degradation, osteogenesis, antibacterial properties, etc.). We hope that our summary of the current research achievements and our notifications of potential strategies to improve the effects of zinc, magnesium, and iron ions in scaffolds for bone repair and regeneration will find new inspiration and breakthroughs to inspire future research.

Abstract
Since the worldwide incidence of bone disorders and cartilage damage has been increasing and traditional therapy has reached its limits, nanomaterials can provide a new strategy in the regeneration of bones and cartilage. The nanoscale modifies the properties of materials, and many of the recently prepared nanocomposites can be used in tissue engineering as scaffolds for the development of biomimetic materials involved in the repair and healing of damaged tissues and organs. In addition, some nanomaterials represent a noteworthy alternative for treatment and alleviating inflammation or infections caused by microbial pathogens. On the other hand, some nanomaterials induce inflammation processes, especially by the generation of reactive oxygen species. Therefore, it is necessary to know and understand their effects in living systems and use surface modifications to prevent these negative effects. This contribution is focused on nanostructured scaffolds, providing a closer structural support approximation to native tissue architecture for cells and regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and migration, which results in cartilage and bone healing and regeneration.

Wnt/ β-Catenin Pathway Balances Scaffold Degradation and Bone Formation in Tissue-Engineered Laminae. Stem Cells Int 2021; 2021:8359582.

Abstract
Tissue engineering provides a promising way for the regeneration of artificial vertebral laminae. Previous studies have confirmed the feasibility of reconstructing vertebral laminae via hydroxyapatite-collagen I scaffolds and mesenchymal stromal cells. However, there were no studies exploring the degradation of hydroxyapatite-collagen I scaffolds and the function of Wnt/β-catenin pathway in the process. In this study, tissue-engineered laminae (TEL) were constructed by nanohydroxyapatite/collagen I scaffolds and umbilical cord Wharton's Jelly mesenchymal stromal cells (WJ-MSCs). Cell attachment was observed by scanning electron microscopy, and cell viability was confirmed by Live/Dead staining. The rat models were randomly divided into control and β-catenin inhibition groups. Vertebral lamina defect rat models were made on the fifth lumbar vertebrate, and TEL was implanted into the defect site. After 14 weeks, the newborn laminae were harvested for microcomputed tomography, histology, or transcriptional profile analysis. We found that, for the control group, the newborn lamina formation matched with the scaffold degradation and complete newborn laminae formed at the 14th week; for the β-catenin inhibition group, the scaffold degradation rate overrated the lamina formation and no complete artificial laminae were formed at the 14th week. In addition, the osteoclastic genes, such as Cathepsin K or RANKL, in the control groups were significantly lower than the β-catenin inhibition group, and the antiosteoclastic gene, OPG, in the control group was significantly higher than the β-catenin inhibition group. In conclusion, inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin pathway led to speedy scaffold degradation and deferred artificial lamina formation. Wnt/β-catenin pathway played a critical role in maintaining the balance between scaffold degradation and bone formation in the process of vertebral lamina reconstruction.

Abstract
Promising strategies to stabilize gelatin or collagen include glutaraldehyde-based chemical cross-linking or dehydrothermal treatment at different temperatures (120-180 °C). However, these procedures require 24-48 h for complete cross-linking to occur. The present study aims to evaluate the role of wheat gluten on enhancing thermal cross-linking of silica-nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHA)-gelatin composite scaffolds within a shorter period (2 h). Changes in properties were evaluated by varying the ratio of gelatin and gluten in silica-nanoHA matrix (60 wt% ceramic: 40 wt% polymer). The results showed that the scaffolds cross-linked at 170 °C were stable in phosphate-buffered saline for 21 days. It was crystalline and porous in nature. However, the scaffolds with high weight percentage of wheat gluten were brittle, while those with low gluten degraded fast in vitro. The mesenchymal stem cells could adhere, proliferate and differentiate into osteogenic lineage on wheat gluten-containing scaffolds for 21 days (mainly medium concentration). The scaffold also supported new bone formation in critical-sized rat calvarial defect, showing its osteoconductive and osteointegrative nature. In short, this study showed the potential of wheat gluten on improving thermal cross-linking within a shorter period and its suitability to use as a biomimetic bone graft for bone tissue engineering.
