Article Abstract

Bone tissue damage and associated disorders significantly compromise the quality of life of affected patients, and existing therapeutic options remain limited. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) play a crucial role in bone regenerative medicine, owing to their ability to differentiate into osteoblasts. Utilizing cutting-edge technologies, nanomaterials, and bioactive compounds can emulate the natural bone tissue microenvironment, offer a three-dimensional scaffold that facilitates the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, and modulate signals at the molecular level, thereby showing promise for applications in bone regeneration and repair. This review seeks to discuss the latest research advancements, elucidate the underlying mechanisms, and highlight the potential benefits of these technologies in augmenting the osteogenic capacity of BMSCs. Furthermore, the challenges and future directions for integrating these technologies in practical settings are discussed to pioneer new vistas in bone regenerative medicine.

Background: Guided bone regeneration (GBR) relies on biocompatible membranes to support osteogenesis. 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE)-crosslinked hyaluronic acid (xHyA) has shown promise in enhancing bone regeneration, yet its mechanisms remain unclear.

Objective: This study evaluates the osteogenic effects of xHyA-functionalized native pericardium collagen membrane (NPCM) and ribose-crosslinked collagen membrane (RCCM) using an airlift culture model with SaOS-2 cells.

Although platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has demonstrated considerable regenerative potential in regenerative endodontic treatment, its clinical efficacy may be limited by the rapid degradation of its bioactive components, leading to inconsistent outcomes. To overcome this challenge, the present study explores the use of nano-sized exosomes derived from PRP-a novel designated as PRP exosomes (PRP-Exo)-as a more stable and targeted biomolecular delivery system to promote odontogenic differentiation within the dentin-pulp complex. The primary objective is to investigate the expression of key odontogenic markers, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and Dentin Sialophosphoprotein (DSPP), in human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) following PRP-Exo treatment.

Enoxaparin sodium (ES), a low molecular weight heparin derivative, has recently been recognized for its diverse biological activities. In particular, the ability of heparin to modulate inflammation has been utilized to enhance the biocompatibility of bone implant materials. In this study, we utilized poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), a drug loading bone implant material, as a matrix and combined this with enoxaparin sodium (ES) to create enoxaparin sodium PMMA cement (ES-PMMA) to investigate the regulatory effects of ES on inflammatory responses in bone tissue from an animal model.
