Three-dimensional Printing of Mycelium Hydrogels into Living Complex Materials [PDF]
Biological living materials, such as animal bones and plant stems, are able to self-heal, regenerate, adapt and make decisions under environmental pressures. Despite recent successful efforts to imbue synthetic materials with some of these remarkable functionalities, many emerging properties of complex adaptive systems found in biology remain ...

Activation of renin–angiotensin system (RAS) plays a role in bone deterioration associated with bone metabolic disorders, via increased Angiotensin II (AngII) targeting Angiotensin II type 1 receptor/Angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT1R/AT2R).

A parameter study on optimal scaffolds in a simple model for bone regeneration [PDF]
We propose a simple model for scaffold aided bone regeneration. In this model, only macroscopic quantities, e.g., locally averaged osteoblast densities, are considered. This allows for use of this model in an optimization algorithm, whose outcome is an optimal scaffold porosity distribution.

Introduction: There are various types of cartilage, including the auricular and articular cartilages. These cartilages have different functions, and their matrix volume and density of chondrocytes may differ.

An Efficient Model for Scaffold-Mediated Bone Regeneration [PDF]
We present a three dimensional, time dependent model for bone regeneration in the presence of porous scaffolds to bridge critical size bone defects. Our approach uses homogenized quantities, thus drastically reducing computational cost compared to models resolving the microstructural scale of the scaffold.

Three Dimensional Optimization of Scaffold Porosities for Bone Tissue Engineering [PDF]
We consider the scaffold design optimization problem associated to the three dimensional, time dependent model for scaffold mediated bone regeneration considered in Dondl et al. (2021). We prove existence of optimal scaffold designs and present numerical evidence that optimized scaffolds mitigate stress shielding effects from exterior fixation of the ...

Nanoclays have been used in composites and for drug delivery but have suffered from a trade-off in properties when used for both. Here the authors report on the use of bisphosphonate interactions with nanoclay edges to made drug loaded composites without
