Bone tissue regeneration scaffold (null)

Bone tissue regeneration scaffolds are three-dimensional biomaterials specifically engineered to provide structural support and biochemical cues that facilitate the regeneration of bone tissue after injury or disease[1][2][3][4][5][6]. These scaffolds may consist of polymers, ceramics, composites, or metals, and can be functionalized with biological molecules such as growth factors, microRNAs, or antibiotics. They serve to mimic the extracellular matrix, promoting the adhesion, differentiation, and proliferation of cells—including osteoblasts and endothelial cells—and may also release drugs or bioactive signals to further accelerate bone healing and prevent infection[1][2][4][5]. Although not considered a classic drug target, they represent a key technology in regenerative medicine and orthopedic surgery.
