Anionic Citrate‐Based 3D‐Printed Scaffolds for Tunable and Sustained Orthobiologic Delivery to Enhance Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A potent anionic citric acid‐based 3D‐printed scaffold is developed for the sustained and controlled release of orthobiologics to enhance orthopedic therapeutic efficacy. Comprehensive in vivo studies demonstrated effective bone fusion and high safety at a low dose of BMP‐2 delivered by the system, establishing it as a promising platform for safe ...

The cause of axial rotation of the scoliotic spine [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
To explain the cause of axial rotation in a scoliotic vertebral column, the influence of the gravitation force on a spine with a C-scoliosis has been investigated by means of a mechanical model. In this model the gravitation force takes hold of the three-

Anti‐Swelling Hydrogel Combined With Nucleus Pulposus Cell Exosomes and Senolytic Drugs Efficiently Repair Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a bifunctional anti‐swelling hydrogel system is developed, which encapsulated anti‐senescence drugs quercetin, dasatinib, nucleus pulposus‐derived exosomes (NP‐Exo) to clear senescent nucleus pulposus cells, regulate the inflammatory disc microenvironment, and enhance nucleus pulposus cells activity, ultimately promoting the repair of ...
