Abstract
Bone tissue constitutes 15-20% of human body weight and plays a crucial role in supporting the body, coordinating movement, regulating mineral homeostasis, and hematopoiesis. The maintenance of bone homeostasis relies on a delicate balance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Osteoclasts, as the exclusive "bone resorbers" in the human skeletal system, are of paramount significance yet often receive inadequate attention. When osteoclast activity becomes excessive, it frequently leads to various bone metabolic disorders, subsequently resulting in secondary bone injuries, such as fractures. This not only reduces life quality of patients, but also imposes a significant economic burden on society. In response to the pressing need for biomaterials in the treatment of osteoclast dysregulation, there is a surge of research and investigations aimed at osteoclast regulation. Promising progress is achieved in this domain. This review seeks to provide a comprehensive understanding of how to modulate osteoclast activities. It summarizes bioactive substances that influence osteoclasts and elucidates strategies for constructing related biomaterial systems. It offers practical insights and ideas for the development and application of biomaterials and tissue engineering, with the hope of guiding the clinical treatment of osteoclast-related bone diseases using biomaterials in the future.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal injuries including bone defects continue to present a significant challenge in orthopedic surgery due to suboptimal healing. Bone reconstruction strategies focused on the use of biological grafts and bone graft substitutes in the form of biomaterials-based 3D structures in fracture repair. Recent advances in biomaterials science and engineering have resulted in the creation of intricate 3D bone-mimicking structures that are mechanically stable, biodegradable, and bioactive to support bone regeneration. Current efforts are focused on improving the biomaterial and implant physicochemical properties to promote interactions with the host tissue and osteogenesis. The "smart" biomaterials and their 3D structures are designed to actively interact with stem/progenitor cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM) to influence the local environment towards osteogenesis and de novo tissue formation. This article will summarize such smart biomaterials and the methodologies to apply either internal or external stimuli to control the tissue healing microenvironment. A particular emphasis is also made on the use of smart biomaterials and strategies to create functional bioactive implants for bone defect repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Multifunctional nanocomposites which exhibit well-defined physical properties and encode spatiotemporally-controlled responses are emerging as components for advanced responsive systems. For biomedical applications magnetic nanocomposite materials have attracted significant attention due to their ability to respond to spatially and temporally varying magnetic fields. The current state-of-the-art in development and fabrication of magnetic hydrogels toward biomedical applications is described. There is accelerating progress in the field due to advances in manufacturing capabilities. Three categories can be identified: i) Magnetic hydrogelation, DC magnetic fields are used during solidification/gelation for aligning particles; ii) additive manufacturing of magnetic materials, 3D printing technologies are used to develop spatially-encoded magnetic properties, and more recently; iii) magnetic additive manufacturing, magnetic responses are applied during the printing process to develop increasingly complex structural arrangement that may recapitulate anisotropic tissue structure and function. The magnetic responsiveness of conventionally and additively manufactured magnetic hydrogels are described along with recent advances in soft magnetic robotics, and the categorization is related to final architecture and emergent properties. Future challenges and opportunities, including the anticipated role of combinatorial approaches in developing 4D-responsive functional materials for tackling long-standing problems in biomedicine including production of 3D-specified responsive cell scaffolds are discussed.

Abstract
Targeted delivery of pharmaceuticals is promising for efficient disease treatment and reduction in adverse effects. Nano or microstructured magnetic materials with strong magnetic momentum can be noninvasively controlled via magnetic forces within living beings. These magnetic carriers open perspectives in controlling the delivery of different types of bioagents in humans, including small molecules, nucleic acids, and cells. In the present review, we describe different types of magnetic carriers that can serve as drug delivery platforms, and we show different ways to apply them to magnetic targeted delivery of bioagents. We discuss the magnetic guidance of nano/microsystems or labeled cells upon injection into the systemic circulation or in the tissue; we then highlight emergent applications in tissue engineering, and finally, we show how magnetic targeting can integrate with imaging technologies that serve to assist drug delivery.

Abstract
The significant mismatch of mechanical properties between the implanted medical device and biological tissue is prone to cause wear and even perforation. In addition, the limited biocompatibility and nondegradability of commercial Nitinol-based occlusion devices can easily lead to other serious complications, such as allergy and corrosion. The present study aims to develop a 4D printed patient-specific absorbable left atrial appendage occluder (LAAO) that can match the deformation of left atrial appendage (LAA) tissue to reduce complications. The desirable bioinspired network is explored by iterative optimization to mimic the stress-strain curve of LAA tissue and LAAOs are designed based on the optimal network. In vitro degradation tests are carried out to evaluate the effects of degradation on mechanical properties. In addition, 48 weeks of long-term subcutaneous implantation of the occluder shows favorable biocompatibility, and the 20-cycle compression test demonstrates outstanding durability of LAAO. Besides, a rapid, complete, and remote-controlled 4D transformation process of LAAO is achieved under the trigger of the magnetic field. The deployment of the LAAO in an isolated swine heart initially exhibits its feasibility for transcatheter LAA occlusion. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of the 4D printed LAA occlusion device. It is worth noting that the bioinspired design concept is not only applicable to occlusion devices, but also to many other implantable medical devices, which is conducive to reducing complications, and a broad range of appealing application prospects can be foreseen.

Abstract
Bone defects caused by trauma and surgery are common clinical problems encountered by orthopedic surgeons. Thus, a hard-textured, natural-like biomaterial that enables encapsulated cells to obtain the much-needed biophysical stimulation and produce functional bone tissue is needed. Incorporating nanomaterials into cell-laden hydrogels is a straightforward tactic for producing tissue engineering structures that integrate perfectly with the body and for tailoring the material characteristics of hydrogels without hindering nutrient exchange with the surroundings. In this review, recent developments in inorganic nanocomposite hydrogels for bone tissue engineering that are of vital importance but have not yet been comprehensively reviewed are summarized.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering (BTE) encompasses the field of biomaterials, cells, and bioactive molecules to successfully guide the growth and repair of bone tissue. Current BTE strategies rely on delivering osteogenic molecules or cells via scaffolding materials. However, growth factor- and stem cell-based treatments have several limitations, such as source restriction, low stability, difficulties in predicting long-term efficacy, and high costs, among others. These issues have promoted the development of material-based therapy with properties of accessibility, high stability, tunable efficacy, and low-cost production. Hydrogels are widely used in BTE applications because of their unique hydrophilic nature and tunable physicochemical properties to mimic the native bone environment. However, current hydrogel materials are not ideal candidates due to minimal osteogenic capability on their own. Therefore, recent studies of BTE hydrogels attempt to counterbalance these issues by modifying their biophysical properties. In this article, we review recent progress in the design of hydrogels to instruct osteogenic potential, and present strategies developed to precisely control its bone healing properties.

Abstract
Drug delivery particles in which the release of biomolecules is triggered by a magnetic simulant have attracted much attention and may have great potential in the fields of cancer therapy and tissue regenerative medicine. In this study, we have prepared magnetic Mn–Zn ferrite ((Mn,Zn)Fe2O4) (MZF) nanoparticles coated with chitosan-g-N-isopropylacrylamide (Chi-g-NIPAAm) polymer (MZF@Chi-g-NIPAAm) to deliver the anticancer drug (Doxorubicin, DOX) and bioactive proteins (Bone morphogenic protein (BMP-2)-immobilized bovine serum albumin (BSA)) (P//MZF@Chi-g-NIPAAm) and be used as chemo-hyperthermia and vector delivering biomolecules. For these purposes, we first show that the as-prepared MZF@Chi-g-NIPAAm particles exhibit super paramagnetic behavior and under certain conditions, they can act as a heat source with a specific absorption rate (SAR) of 34.88 W g−1. Under acidic conditions and in the presence of AMF, the fast release of DOX was seen at around 58.9% within 20 min. In vitro evaluations indicated that concurrent thermo-chemotherapy treatment by DOX-MZF@Chi-g-NIPAAm using AMF had a better antitumor effect, compared with those using either DOX or DOX-MZF@Chi-g-NIPAAm without AMF (89.02% of cells were killed as compared to 71.82% without AMF exposure). Up to 28.18% of the BSA (used as the model protein to determine the controlled release) is released from the P//MZF@Chi-g-NIPAAm particles under AMF exposure for 1 h (only 17.31% was released without AMF). These results indicated that MZF@Chi-g-NIPAAm particles could be used to achieve hyperthermia at a precise location, effectively enhancing the chemotherapy treatments, and have a promising future as drug or bioactive delivering molecules for cancer treatment and cartilage or bone regenerative applications. Drug delivery particles in which the release of biomolecules is triggered by a magnetic simulant have attracted much attention and may have great potential in the fields of cancer therapy and tissue regenerative medicine.![]()

Abstract
Biomimetic hydrogels have emerged as the most useful tissue engineering scaffold materials. Their versatile chemistry can recapitulate multiple physical and chemical features to integrate cells, scaffolds, and signaling molecules for tissue regeneration. Due to their highly hydrophilic nature hydrogels can recreate nutrient-rich aqueous environments for cells. Soluble regulatory molecules can be incorporated to guide cell proliferation and differentiation. Importantly, the controlled dynamic parameters and spatial distribution of chemical cues in hydrogel scaffolds are critical for cell-cell communication, cell-scaffold interaction, and morphogenesis. Herein, we review biomimetic hydrogels that provide cells with spatiotemporally controlled chemical cues as tissue engineering scaffolds. Specifically, hydrogels with temporally controlled growth factor-release abilities, spatially controlled conjugated bioactive molecules/motifs, and targeting delivery and reload properties for tissue engineering applications are discussed in detail. Examples of hydrogels that possess clinically favorable properties, such as injectability, self-healing ability, stimulus-responsiveness, and pro-remodeling features, are also covered.
