Article Abstract

The management of bone defects poses a significant challenge for clinicians, necessitating effective strategies to regulate immune inflammation, angiogenesis, and osteogenic differentiation for successful bone regeneration. In this study, we developed a novel hydrogel composed of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) and gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) designed for the sustained release of the bioactive component calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8). CGRP was initially encapsulated within ZIF-8 and subsequently integrated into the CMCS/GelMA hydrogel matrix. evaluations revealed that the hydrogel exhibited exceptional biocompatibility and antimicrobial properties, effectively promoting osteogenesis and angiogenesis while modulating M2 macrophage polarization. Furthermore, assessments indicated that the CGRP@MOF/CG hydrogel significantly regulated the local immune microenvironment and accelerated the healing of cranial defects in rat models. This study provides valuable references for the design and fabrication of multifunctional materials for enhancing bone regeneration.

Oxygen plays a critical regulatory role in tissue repair and regeneration. However, in the microenvironment of tissues with vascular damage, hypoxia is commonly present. This not only suppresses cell proliferation and differentiation but also delays angiogenesis and extracellular matrix reconstruction, ultimately hindering the tissue regeneration process.

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to critically evaluate and synthesize the available evidence on the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in the management of mandibular and non-mandibular maxillofacial fractures. A comprehensive search of electronic databases was conducted up to February 2025 based on predefined inclusion criteria. The risk of bias in randomized controlled trials was assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias (ROB) tool, while the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was applied to observational studies.

Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) hold great promise for bone tissue repair and regeneration. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) play a crucial role in regulating the osteogenic differentiation and bone remodeling of ADSCs; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we conducted whole transcriptome sequencing (WTS) on ADSCs and constructed a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory network to identify the circTTC3/miR-205/mothers against decapentaplegic homolog 3 (Smad3) signaling axis.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition characterized by the accumulation of myelin debris (MD), persistent neuroinflammation, and impaired neural regeneration. Although macrophages are pivotal for MD clearance, the impact of excessive MD phagocytosis on macrophage phenotype and function remains poorly understood. Building upon our prior evidence that exendin-4 (Ex-4), a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist, mitigates microglia-driven neuroinflammation post-SCI, this study elucidates the therapeutic efficacy and underlying mechanisms of Ex-4 in alleviating macrophage senescence, restoring efferocytotic capacity, and facilitating neural repair.

Background: Critical size bone defects represent a clinical challenge, associated with considerable morbidity, and frequently trigger the requirement of secondary procedure. To fill osseous gaps, multiple steps are required, such as proliferation and differentiation on the cellular level and the building of extracellular matrix. In addition, the osteogenic potential of cell-derived extracellular matrices (CD-ECM) is known to enhance bone healing.
