Article Abstract
Osteoporotic fractures seriously endanger the elderly quality of life, especially postmenopausal women. Currently, calcium phosphate cement (CPC) is one of the materials used for the treatment of osteoporotic fractures. This study intends to investigate the biological effects of lithium (Li)-doped CPC. Li was dissolved into ultrapure water as curing solution to prepare CPC@Li composite material. Li did not affect the morphology of CPC. CPC@Li composite showed a sustained release of Li in 14 days. Compared with CPC, CPC@Li promoted the adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow stem cells. The result of femur implantation in an osteoporosis mouse model showed that a larger amount of new bone was formed surrounding the CPC@Li implant and closely to the implant surface, indicating favorable osteogenesis and osteointegration capabilities. Li-doped CPC is promising to be used in clinic for its enhanced bone regeneration ability.

A prototype bioactive calcium phosphate model-specifically hydroxyapatite (HA) derived from eggshells-was developed using a sodium silicate (NaSiO) solution as an inorganic binder, precursor, and reinforcing agent, in combination with collagen nanofibers for bone engineering applications. The sodium silicate solution, functioning as a waterglass adhesive, introduced cohesive forces within the hydroxyapatite matrix, thereby enhancing its physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Eggshell-derived bioactive hydroxyapatite offers several advantages, including non-toxicity, biocompatibility, collagen adhesion, and the ability to mimic bone structure, making it suitable for tissue engineering.

Kidney stones have a high recurrence rate-10% within 5 years and 50% within 10. Crystalluria reflects the urinary physicochemical environment and may serve as a recurrence marker, but key crystals like brushite are rarely detected under ambient conditions. This study aimed to identify novel recurrence markers by inducing crystallization through urine cooling and analyzing crystal composition.

Dental tissue regeneration is often challenged by the hostile inflammatory microenvironment and the dysfunction of reparative cells due to oxidative stress. This study presents a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging nanozyme induced by ligand-to-metal charge transfer, engineered as a multifunctional capping material through the in situ growth of copper-gallate (CuGA) on hydroxyapatite nanofibers (HAFs). The obtained CuGA@HAF demonstrates superior ROS-scavenging capacity through its multi-enzyme mimetic activity, effectively rescuing the function of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) under oxidative stress by restoring mitochondrial homeostasis.

Intrafibrillar mineralization plays an important role in dentin repair. Current research on intrafibrillar mineralization primarily focuses on the precise positioning of mineral precursors within collagen and the reduction of mineralization time. Inspired by the multifunctionality of noncollagenous proteins (NCPs), we developed a dual-analogue system, 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (10-MDP) followed by 3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-l-alanine (l-DOPA)-stabilized amorphous calcium phosphate (M + LA), which integrated a nucleation inhibitor l-DOPA and inducer 10-MDP.
