Article Abstract

Biomineralization is a natural process in which organisms regulate the growth of inorganic minerals to form biominerals with unique layered structures, such as bones and teeth, primarily composed of calcium and phosphorus. Tooth decay significantly impacts our daily lives, and the key to tooth regeneration lies in restoring teeth through biomimetic approaches, utilizing mineralization strategies or materials that mimic natural processes. This review delves into the types, properties, and transformations of calcium and phosphorus minerals, followed by an exploration of the mechanisms behind physiological and pathological mineralization in living organisms. It summarizes the mechanisms and commonalities of biomineralization and discusses the advancements in dental biomineralization research, guided by insights into calcium and phosphorus mineral biomineralization. This review concludes by addressing the current challenges and future directions in the field of dental biomimetic mineralization.

Background: Sub-Saharan Africa is facing a dietary transition with both undernutrition and rising rates of non-communicable diseases. Adopting the reference diet proposed by the EAT-Lancet Commission can reduce both the environmental burden and improve health outcomes. However, whether this diet provides micronutrient adequacy in older adults in low-income settings has not been investigated.

Two studies were carried out to investigate the effects of a novel bacterial biosynthetic 6-phytase on growth performance, bone mineralization, and apparent total digestibility (ATTD) of phosphorus (P) in weaned piglets and growing pigs. They were carried out on 192 weaned piglets with initial body weight (BW): 9.3 ± 1.

Phytic acid is a phosphorylated derivative of myo-inositol that is ubiquitous in plants and serves as the primary storage form of phosphorus. In human nutrition, phytic acid is considered an anti-nutrient because it chelates essential minerals, including calcium, iron, and zinc. This binding action reduces the bioavailability of these metals, highlighting the importance of monitoring phytic acid in food.

Regeneration of infected bone defects (IBDs) requires biomaterials capable of dynamically coordinating antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and osteogenic functions. Overcoming the spatiotemporal mismatches in treating IBDs remains a critical challenge. Here, we designed a temporally controlled therapy based on gelatin methacrylate (GelMA)-based nanocomposite hydrogels (GCS) coembedded with sulfur quantum dots (SQDs) nanoenzymes and calcium-phosphorus oligomers (CPOs.
