Mesoporous Bioactive Glasses: A Powerful Tool in Tissue Engineering and Drug Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work is a comprehensive revision of bioactive glasses (BGs), pioneered by Prof. L.L. Hench, which are key in bone repair and regenerative medicine. Sol–gel methods and mesoporous designs enhanced their bioactivity, ions, and drug delivery. BGs now support gene therapy and 3D‐printed scaffolds, enabling personalized, multifunctional treatments in ...

Harnessing Advances in Bone Tissue Engineering for Design of Bone‐on‐Chip Systems

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bone‐on‐chip (BoC) systems demonstrate significant potential as next‐generation models to study human (patho)physiology and evaluate new therapies. However, progress toward functional, human‐like BoCs has been hindered by the structural and functional complexity of bone. This perspective discusses how insights from bone tissue engineering can guide BoC

Sacrificial Biofabrication for Vascularization: Concept, Materials, Technologies, and Applications

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Vasculature is indispensable for tissue viability in regenerative medicine. The sacrificial biofabrication enables precise fabrication of vascular channels by using temporary templates that are subsequently removed. This review defines the concept and delves into sacrificial materials, surrounding materials, fabrication technologies, and biomedical ...

Peptide Amphiphiles Hitchhike on Endogenous Biomolecules for Enhanced Cancer Imaging and Therapy

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Weakly assembled peptide amphiphile nanostructures disassemble in circulation and reassemble with blood biomolecules, mainly lipoproteins. Binding to blood biomolecules prolongs blood circulation and improves accumulation in solid tumors. In the tumor microenvironment, peptide amphiphiles assemble with cholesterol‐rich domains of cell membranes ...

Microvascular tissue transfer in reconstruction of anterior skull base defects secondary to sinonasal malignancies: a case series and proposed reconstructive framework

Egyptian Journal of Neurosurgery
Sinonasal malignancies such as lymphoepithelial carcinoma (LEC) and esthesioneuroblastoma (ENB) are rare but aggressive neoplasms that frequently necessitate extensive resection of anterior skull base structures, creating complex defects.
