Ascorbic Acid Modulates Collagen Properties in Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteoporotic Bone: Insights into Chemical, Mechanical, and Biological Regulation

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Osteoporosis from long‐term glucocorticoid (GIOP) use elevates susceptibility to fracture. This study shows GCs impair ascorbic acid (AA) metabolism in osteoblasts, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix integrity. AA enhanced collagen biochemical and mechanical properties and restored osteoblast and endothelial function. These findings underscore

Co‐Delivery of Ca‐MOF and Mg‐MOF Using Nanoengineered Hydrogels to Promote In Situ Mineralization and Bone Defect Repair: In Vitro and In Vivo Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) have been synthesized using calcium (Ca‐MOF), magnesium (Mg‐MOF), and as hybrids (Ca/Mg‐MOF) for bone healing applications. MOFs are integrated into hydrogel polymer networks for injectable, sprayable, and coating applications.
