Abstract
The advancement of nanobiocomposites reinforced with 2D nano-materials plays a pivotal role in enhancing bone tissue engineering. In this study, we introduce a nanobiocomposite that reinforces bovine collagen with 2D nano-talc, a recently exfoliated nano-mineral. These nanobiocomposites were prepared by blending collagen with varying concentrations of 2D nano-talc, encompassing mono- and few-layers talc from soapstone nanomaterial. Extensive characterization techniques including AFM, XPS, nano-FTIR, s-SNOM nanoimaging, Force Spectroscopy, and PeakForce QNM® were employed. The incorporation of 2D nano-talc significantly enhanced the mechanical properties of the nanobiocomposites, resulting in increased stiffness compared to pristine collagen. In vitro studies supported the growth and proliferation of osteoblasts onto 2D nano-talc-reinforced nanobiocomposites, as well as showed the highest mineralization potential. These findings highlight the substantial potential of the developed nanobiocomposite as a scaffold material for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
In this study, we evaluated the use of graphene oxide (GO) mixed with methyl methacrylate gelatin (GelMA) for the construction of a microenvironmental implant to repair bone defects in orthopedic surgery. A scaffold containing a GelMA/GO composite with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) was constructed using three-dimensional bioprinting. The survival and osteogenic capacity of MSCs in the composite bioink were evaluated using cell viability and proliferation assays, osteogenesis-related gene expression analysis, and implantation under the skin of nude mice. The printing process had little effect on cell viability. We found that GO enhanced cell proliferation but had no significant effect on cell viability. In vitro experiments suggested that GO promoted material-cell interactions and the expression of osteogenesis-related genes. In vivo experiments showed that GO decreased the degradation time of the material and increased calcium nodule deposition. In contrast to pure GelMA, the addition of GO created a suitable microenvironment to promote the differentiation of loaded exogenous MSCs in vitro and in vivo, providing a basis for the repair of bone defects.

Abstract
Calcium silicate can be used as an excellent material for biodegradable bone scaffolds because it can provide bioactive ions to promote bone regeneration. However, the brittleness and rapid degradation of calcium silicate scaffolds have significantly limited their clinical application. In this work, the calcium silicate scaffolds printed by DLP technology were immersed in a gelatin solution under high vacuum condition to obtain calcium silicate/gelatin composite scaffolds with good mechanical and biological properties. Then, genipin was used as a cross-linker for gelatin to control the degradation properties of the composite scaffolds. The initial compressive strength and toughness of the composite scaffolds were 5.0 times and one order of magnitude higher than those of the pure calcium silicate scaffolds, respectively. The gelatin on the surface of the scaffolds could effectively act as a protective layer to regulate the degradation behaviors of the calcium silicate substrate through controlling the crosslinking degree of the gelatin. After degrading for 14 days, the composite scaffolds at 1.0 % genipin concentration exhibited the highest compressive strength of 8.6 ± 0.8 MPa, much higher than that of the pure ceramic scaffold (1.5 ± 0.3 MPa). It can be found that the toughness of the composite scaffolds were almost over 13.2 times higher than that of the pure ceramic scaffold during degradation, despite the higher toughness loss for the former. Furthermore, the composite scaffolds showed enhanced cell biocompatibility and viability. These results demonstrate that the calcium silicate/gelatin composite scaffolds can be a promising candidate in bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Tissue engineering is an emerging technological field that aims to restore and replace human tissues. A significant number of individuals require bone replacement annually as a result of skeletal abnormalities or accidents. In recent decades, notable progress has been made in the field of biomedical research, specifically in the realm of sophisticated and biocompatible materials. The purpose of these biomaterials is to facilitate bone tissue regeneration. Carbon nanomaterial-based scaffolds are particularly notable due to their accessibility, mechanical durability, and biofunctionality. The scaffolds exhibit the capacity to enhance cellular proliferation, mitigate cell damage, induce bone tissue growth, and maintain biological compatibility. Therefore, they play a crucial role in the development of the bone matrix and the necessary cellular interactions required for bone tissue restoration. The attachment, growth, and specialization of osteogenic stem cells on biomaterial scaffolds play critical roles in bone tissue engineering. The optimal biomaterial should facilitate the development of bone tissue in a manner that closely resembles that of human bone. This comprehensive review encompasses the examination of graphene oxide (GO), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), fullerenes, carbon dots (CDs), nanodiamonds, and their respective derivatives. The biomaterial frameworks possess the ability to replicate the intricate characteristics of the bone microenvironment, thereby rendering them suitable for utilization in tissue engineering endeavors.

Abstract
Osteoblasts and osteoclasts play a crucial role in the dynamically coupled balance during bone regeneration and remodeling. They complement and restrict each other in the human body. Decreased osteoblasts lead to insufficient bone formation or excessive formation of osteoclasts, leading to increased bone resorption, which will destroy the structure of the bone tissue. This will greatly increase the risk of diseases such as osteoporosis and nonunions caused by bone defects. Herein, gelatin and polycaprolactone were used as substrates, and biomaterial membranes with mesh and sandwich structures were constructed using the electrospinning technology. Naringenin was loaded into the shell, and vitamin K2 was loaded into the core layer of the nanofibrous membrane. The biocompatibility and osteogenic capacity of the membranes were assessed in vitro using mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). During osteoclast induction, the receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RANKL) was used to coculture RAW264.7 cells with various materials. The regulatory effect of various membranes on osteoclast growth was evaluated by detecting the expression levels of osteoclast-related genes and proteins in the cells. Subsequently, we constructed a model of a rat skull defect and implanted different membranes into the defect. Then, we evaluated the new bone formation in the defect using histological staining and micro-computed tomography after 4 and 8 weeks. The results of in vitro experiments confirmed that the incorporation of naringenin and vitamin K2 stimulated the expression of osteogenesis-related genes and the secretion of osteogenesis-related proteins. Simultaneously, the results showed that naringenin and vitamin K2 inhibited the formation and growth of osteoclasts. Therefore, naringenin and vitamin K2 have a synergistic effect in promoting bone growth and regulating osteoclast growth.

Abstract
Bone is one of the most vascular network-rich tissues in the body and the vascular system is essential for the development, homeostasis, and regeneration of bone. When segmental irreversible damage occurs to the bone, restoring its vascular system by means other than autogenous bone grafts with vascular pedicles is a therapeutic challenge. By pre-generating the vascular network of the scaffold in vivo or in vitro, the pre-vascularization technique enables an abundant blood supply in the scaffold after implantation. However, pre-vascularization techniques are time-consuming, and in vivo pre-vascularization techniques can be damaging to the body. Critical bone deficiencies may be filled quickly with immediate implantation of a supporting bone tissue engineered scaffold. However, bone tissue engineered scaffolds generally lack vascularization, which requires modification of the scaffold to aid in enhancing internal vascularization. In this review, we summarize the relationship between the vascular system and osteogenesis and use it as a basis to further discuss surgical and cytotechnology-based pre-vascularization strategies and to describe the preparation of vascularized bone tissue engineered scaffolds that can be implanted immediately. We anticipate that this study will serve as inspiration for future vascularized bone tissue engineered scaffold construction and will aid in the achievement of clinical vascularized bone.

Abstract
As bone and joint injuries from various causes become increasingly prominent, how to effectively reconstruct and repair bone defects presents a difficult problem for clinicians and researchers. In recent years, graphene and its derivatives have been the subject of growing body of research and have been found to promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. This provides a new idea for solving the clinical problem of bone defects. However, as as numerous articles address various aspects and have not been fully systematized, there is an urgent need to classify and summarize them. In this paper, for the first time, the effects of graphene and its derivatives on stem cells in solution, in 2D and 3D structures and in vivo and their possible mechanisms are reviewed, and the cytotoxic effects of graphene and its derivatives were summarized and analyzed. The toxicity of graphene and its derivatives is further reviewed. In addition, we suggest possible future development directions of graphene and its derivatives in bone tissue engineering applications to provide a reference for further clinical application.

Abstract
Bioceramics have attracted considerable attention in the field of bone repair because of their excellent osteogenic properties, degradability, and biocompatibility. To resolve issues regarding limited formability, recent studies have introduced 3D printing technology for the fabrication of bioceramic bone repair scaffolds. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by which bioceramics promote bone repair and clinical applications of 3D-printed bioceramic scaffolds remain elusive. This review provides an account of the fabrication methods of 3D-printed degradable bioceramic scaffolds. In addition, the types and characteristics of degradable bioceramics used in clinical and preclinical applications are summarized. We have also highlighted the osteogenic molecular mechanisms in biomaterials with the aim of providing a basis and support for future research on the clinical applications of degradable bioceramic scaffolds. Finally, new developments and potential applications of 3D-printed degradable bioceramic scaffolds are discussed with reference to experimental and theoretical studies.

Abstract
The current study focuses on the incorporation of natural polymers (gelatin, silk fibre) and synthetic (polyvinyl alcohol) polymer towards the fabrication of a novel composite for bone tissue engineering. The Electrospinning method was used to fabricate the novel gelatin/polyvinyl alcohol/silk fibre scaffold. XRD, FTIR and SEM-EDAX analysis was performed to characterize the composite. The characterized composite was investigated for its physical properties (porosity and mechanical studies) and biological studies (antimicrobial activity, hemocompatibility, bioactivity). The fabricated composite showed high porosity and the highest tensile strength of 34 MPa, with elongation at a break of 35.82 for the composite. The antimicrobial activity of the composite was studied and the zone of inhibition was measured around 51 ± 0.54 for E. coli, 48 ± 0.48 for S. aureus and 50 ± 0.26 for C. albicans. The hemolytic % was noted around 1.36 for the composite and the bioactivity assay revealed the formation of apatite on composite surfaces.

Abstract
Objectives To compare and evaluate the bond durability, surface morphology, and remineralization of the adhesive layer with newer adhesive systems modified with novel bioactive nanoparticles. Methodology Bonding agents evaluated in this study include (a) Conventional dentin bonding agent (CN-DBA) (b) Nanohydroxyapatite (nanoHAP) incorporated dentin bonding agent (NH DBA); (c) Silica doped nanohydroxyapatite (Si nanoHAP) incorporated dentin bonding agent (Si NH DBA). A total of 104 human dentin discs (5 mm × 5 mm × 2 mm) were sectioned. Elemental analysis (Ca/P ratio) and surface morphology of the adhesive layer with different dentin adhesives were evaluated under scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray analysis after speculated storage time of 1 day and 6 months. Microshear bond strength of adhesive restorations with different dentin adhesives was evaluated under universal testing machine and fractographic analysis under scanning electron microscope after speculated storage time of 1 day and 6 months. The results were analyzed using analysis of variance and post hoc analysis. Results Si-NH-DBA showed highest mean microshear bond strength for both 1 day and 6 months, which was significantly higher compared to conventional nanofilled dentin bonding agent (CN-DBA) and NH-DBA. Si-NH-DBA group showed only 10% reduction in bond strength after 6 months, which was less compared to that of other groups. Similarly, Si-NH-DBA showed higher remineralization with stellate-shaped crystals at the adhesive layer after 6 months with hydrolytic resistant hybrid layer, compared to CN-DBA and NH-DBA. Conclusion Silica-doped nanohydroxyapatite proved its efficiency on bond stability, remineralization, and hydrolytic resistance when incorporated into dentin bonding agents because of its bioactivity and carbonate-containing apatite-forming ability.

Abstract
Silk fibroin and three kinds of graphene-based materials (graphene, graphene oxide, and reduced graphene oxide) have been widely investigated in biomedical fields. Recently, the hybrid composites of silk fibroin and graphene-based materials have attracted much attention owing to their combined advantages, i.e., presenting outstanding biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and excellent electrical conductivity. However, maintaining bio-toxicity and biodegradability at a proper level remains a challenge for other applications. This report describes the first attempt to summarize the hybrid composites’ preparation methods, properties, and applications to the best of our knowledge. We strongly believe that this review will open new doors for coming researchers.

Abstract
Bone regeneration-related graphene-based materials (bGBMs) are increasingly attracting attention in tissue engineering due to their special physical and chemical properties. The purpose of this review is to quantitatively analyze mass academic literature in the field of bGBMs through scientometrics software CiteSpace, to demonstrate the rules and trends of bGBMs, thus to analyze and summarize the mechanisms behind the rules, and to provide clues for future research. First, the research status, hotspots, and frontiers of bGBMs are analyzed in an intuitively and vividly visualized way. Next, the extracted important subjects such as fabrication techniques, cytotoxicity, biodegradability, and osteoinductivity of bGBMs are presented, and the different mechanisms, in turn, are also discussed. Finally, photothermal therapy, which is considered an emerging area of application of bGBMs, is also presented. Based on this approach, this work finds that different studies report differing opinions on the biological properties of bGBMS due to the lack of consistency of GBMs preparation. Therefore, it is necessary to establish more standards in fabrication, characterization, and testing for bGBMs to further promote scientific progress and clinical translation.

Abstract
Synthetic bioceramics are replacing conventional methods of treating bone defects with autografts owing to the high demand of bone substitutes, with their Surface topography and size contributing to favor cytocompatibility in tissue regeneration. This experimental study deals with the comparative evaluation of the physical characterizations of four different in-house synthesized bioceramics from 3D-bulk to nanoforms of hydroxyapatite (HA), Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP), Strontium doped hydroxyapatite (SrHA) and Silica coated hydroxyapatite (HASi) and also simultaneously evaluates adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of rabbit adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (RADMSCs) on these biomimetic ceramic niches. The osteogenic induced cells grown on 3D scaffolds for a period of 7, 14, 21, and 28 days were analyzed for their viability (MTT, LDH, live-dead assays), morphology (SEM), proliferation (Cytox-Red) and osteogenic differentiation (ALP, osteocalcin expression). Cellular activities and differentiation of RADMSCs were significantly higher on SrHA indicating the role of strontium in the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells on this ceramic platform to the bone lineage. In order to reinforce the materials for hard tissue implantation and drug delivery, nano-SrHA (nSrHA) became the nanoparticle of choice based on its non-toxicity, cytocompatibility and osteogenic properties (nSrHA > nHASi > nBCP > nHA).

Abstract
A challenging approach of three-dimensional (3D)-biomimetic scaffold design for bone tissue engineering is to improve scaffold bioactivity and mechanical properties. We aimed to design and fabricate 3D-polycaprolactone (PCL)-based nanocomposite scaffold containing a high concentration homogeneously distributed carbonated-nanohydroxyapatite (C-nHA)-particles in combination with immobilized-collagen to mimic real bone properties. PCL-scaffolds without/with C-nHA at 30%, 45%, and 60% (wt/wt) were 3D-printed. PCL/C-nHA60%-scaffolds were surface-modified by NaOH-treatment and collagen-immobilization. Physicomechanical and biological properties were investigated experimentally and by finite-element (FE) modeling. Scaffold surface-roughness enhanced by increasing C-nHA (1.7 - 6.1-fold), but decreased by surface-modification (0.6-fold). The contact angle decreased by increasing C-nHA (0.9 - 0.7-fold), and by surface-modification (0.5-fold). The zeta potential decreased by increasing C-nHA (3.2-9.9-fold). Average elastic modulus, compressive strength, and reaction force enhanced by increasing C-nHA and by surface-modification. FE modeling revealed that von Mises stress distribution became less homogeneous by increasing C-nHA, and by surface-modification. Maximal von Mises stress for 2% compression strain in all scaffolds did not exceed yield stress for bulk-material. 3D-printed PCL/C-nHA60% with surface-modification enhanced pre-osteoblast spreading, proliferation, collagen deposition, alkaline phosphatase activity, and mineralization. In conclusion, a novel biomimetic 3D-printed PCL-scaffold containing a high concentration C-nHA with surface-modification was successfully fabricated. It exhibited superior physicomechanical and biological properties, making it a promising biomaterial for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Bone regeneration or replacement has been proved to be one of the most effective methods available for the treatment of bone defects caused by different musculoskeletal disorders. However, the great contradiction between the large demand for clinical therapies and the insufficiency and deficiency of natural bone grafts has led to an urgent need for the development of synthetic bone graft substitutes. Bone tissue engineering has shown great potential in the construction of desired bone grafts, despite the many challenges that remain to be faced before safe and reliable clinical applications can be achieved. Graphene, with outstanding physical, chemical and biological properties, is considered a highly promising material for ideal bone regeneration and has attracted broad attention. In this review, we provide an introduction to the properties of graphene and its derivatives. In addition, based on the analysis of bone regeneration processes, interesting findings of graphene-based materials in bone regenerative medicine are analyzed, with special emphasis on their applications as scaffolds, membranes, and coatings in bone tissue engineering. Finally, the advantages, challenges, and future prospects of their application in bone regenerative medicine are discussed.

Abstract
PURPOSE Insufficient biological activity heavily restricts the application and development of biodegradable bone implants. Functional modification of bone implants is critical to improve osseointegration and bone regeneration. METHODS In this study, L-lysine functionalized graphene oxide (Lys-g-GO) nanoparticles and polydopamine-assisted gold nanoparticle (AuNPs-PDA) coatings were applied to improve the biological function of PLGA scaffold materials. The effects of Lys-g-GO nanoparticles and AuNPs-PDA functionalized coatings on the physicochemical properties of PLGA scaffolds were detected with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), contact angle measurement, and mechanical testing instruments. In vitro, the effects of composite scaffolds on MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation, adhesion, and osteogenic differentiation were studied. Finally, a radial defect model was used to assess the effect of composite scaffolds on bone defect healing. RESULTS The prepared AuNPs-PDA@PLGA/Lys-g-GO composite scaffolds exhibited excellent mechanical strength, hydrophilicity and antibacterial properties. In vitro, this composite scaffold can significantly improve osteoblast adhesion, proliferation, osteogenic differentiation, calcium deposition, and other cell behaviour. In vivo, this composite scaffold can significantly promote the new bone formation and collagen deposition in the radial defect site and presented good biocompatibility. CONCLUSION The combination of bioactive nanoparticles and surface coatings shows considerable potential to enhance the osseointegration of bone implants.

Abstract
Peritoneal adhesion is one of the most common postsurgical complications and can cause bowel obstruction, pelvic pain, and infertility. Setting up a physical barrier directly between the injured site and surrounding tissues is an effective solution for preventing this adverse situation. This study investigated a chitosan electrospun membrane (CSEM) as a potent anti-adhesion barrier, which was prepared by a needleless technology called Nanospider. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that CSEM is a laminated nanofiber with good mechanical properties. The fiber is uniform with the diameter distributing in the range of 100-120 nm. The tensile strength can reach 27.45 ± 6.30 MPa with a maximum elongation at break of 18.50 ± 1.44%, which makes it stick easily to damaged parts but not to be easily damaged by tissue friction. The growth of S. aureus on CSEM was 59.18% lower than the control at 10 h, which indicates its better antibacterial property. In addition, CSEM has good coagulant and biocompatibility characteristics. It can perform hemostatic function within 10 min and the L929 mouse fibroblast viability on it was 92.18% ± 1.08% on the seventh day. In vivo experiments indicated that CSEM significantly prevented peritoneal adhesions within four weeks after surgery with wound surface coverage. These results indicate that CSEM is a promising anti-adhesion barrier material.

Abstract
During continuous innovation in the preparation, characterization and application of various bone repair materials for several decades, nanomaterials have exhibited many unique advantages. As a kind of representative two-dimensional nanomaterials, graphene and its derivatives (GDs) such as graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide have shown promising potential for the application in bone repair based on their excellent mechanical properties, electrical conductivity, large specific surface area (SSA) and atomic structure stability. Herein, we reviewed the updated application of them in bone repair in order to present, as comprehensively, as possible, their specific advantages, challenges and current solutions. Firstly, how their advantages have been utilized in bone repair materials with improved bone formation ability was discussed. Especially, the effects of further functionalization or modification were emphasized. Then, the signaling pathways involved in GDs-induced osteogenic differentiation of stem cells and immunomodulatory mechanism of GDs-induced bone regeneration were discussed. On the other hand, their applications as contrast agents in the field of bone repair were summarized. In addition, we also reviewed the progress and related principles of the effects of GDs parameters on cytotoxicity and residues. At last, the future research was prospected.

Abstract
In this study, we aimed to prepare and characterize porous scaffolds composed of pure and boron oxide (B2O3)-doped bioactive glass (BG) that were infiltrated by cellulose acetate-gelatin (CA-GE) polymer solution for bone tissue engineering applications. Composite scaffolds were cross-linked with glutaraldehyde after polymer coating to protect the structural integrity of the polymeric-coated scaffolds. The impact of B2O3 incorporation into BG-polymer porous scaffolds on the cross-sectional morphology, porosity, mechanical properties, degradation and bioactivity of the scaffolds was investigated. Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) were enzymatically isolated and used for cell culture studies. According to scanning electron microscope analysis, the porous structure of the scaffolds was preserved after polymer coating. After polymer infiltration, the porosity of the scaffolds decreased from 64.2% to 59.35% for pure BG scaffolds and from 67.3% to 58.9% for B2O3-doped scaffolds. Meanwhile, their compressive strengths increased from 0.13 to 0.57 MPa and from 0.20 to 0.82 MPa, respectively. After polymer infiltration, 7% B2O3-incorporated BG scaffolds had higher weight loss and Ca-P layer deposition than pure BG scaffolds, after 14 d of incubation in simulated body fluid at 37 °C. Higher attachment and proliferation of hDPSCs were observed on 7% B2O3-BG-CA/GE scaffolds. In addition, the alkaline phosphatase activity of the cells was about 1.25-fold higher in this group than that observed on BG-CA/GE scaffolds after 14 d of incubation in osteogenic medium, while their intracellular calcium amounts were 1.7-fold higher than observed on BG-CA/GE after 7 d of incubation in osteogenic medium. Our results suggested that porous cellulose acetate-gelatin-coated boron-BG scaffolds hold promise for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Advances in nanoparticle (NP) production and demand for control over nanoscale systems have had significant impact on tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). NPs with low toxicity, contrasting agent properties, tailorable characteristics, targeted/stimuli-response delivery potential, and precise control over behavior (via external stimuli such as magnetic fields) have made it possible their use for improving engineered tissues and overcoming obstacles in TERM. Functional tissue and organ replacements require a high degree of spatial and temporal control over the biological events and also their real-time monitoring. Presentation and local delivery of bioactive (growth factors, chemokines, inhibitors, cytokines, genes etc.) and contrast agents in a controlled manner are important implements to exert control over and monitor the engineered tissues. This need resulted in utilization of NP based systems in tissue engineering scaffolds for delivery of multiple growth factors, for providing contrast for imaging and also for controlling properties of the scaffolds. Depending on the application, materials, as polymers, metals, ceramics and their different composites can be utilized for production of NPs. In this review, we will cover the use of NP systems in TERM and also provide an outlook for future potential use of such systems.

Abstract
Scaffolds are physical substrates for cell attachments, proliferation, and differentiation, ultimately leading to tissue regeneration. Current literature validates tissue engineering as an emerging tool for bone regeneration. Three-dimensionally printed natural and synthetic biomaterials have been traditionally used for tissue engineering. In recent times, graphene and its derivatives are potentially employed for constructing bone tissue engineering scaffolds because of their osteogenic and regenerative properties. Graphene is a synthetic atomic layer of graphite with SP2 bonded carbon atoms that are arranged in a honeycomb lattice structure. Graphene can be combined with natural and synthetic biomaterials to enhance the osteogenic potential and mechanical strength of tissue engineering scaffolds. The objective of this review is to focus on the most recent studies that attempted to explore the salient features of graphene and its derivatives. Perhaps, a thorough understanding of the material science can potentiate researchers to use this novel substitute to enhance the osteogenic and biological properties of scaffold materials that are routinely used for bone tissue engineering.
