Elevator‐Like Hollow Channels in Porous Scaffolds Accelerate Vascularized Bone Regeneration via NETs‐Fibrin‐Mediated Macrophage Recruitment

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that how hollow‐channel scaffolds promote vascularized bone regeneration via an immunomodulatory mechanism. The channel structures facilitate the formation of a neutrophil extracellular traps‐fibrin scaffold that recruits vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF‐A)‐secreting M2 macrophages to drive angiogenesis. Combining this
