Abstract Magneto-/electro-responsive polymers (MERPs) are a class of stimuli-responsive
materials that are actuated when triggered by external magnetic/electric fields. MERPs …

Nowadays, bone diseases and defects as a result of trauma, cancers, infections and
degenerative and inflammatory conditions are increasing. Consequently, bone repair and …

Most tissues of the human body are characterized by highly anisotropic physical properties
and biological organization. Hydrogels have been proposed as scaffolding materials to …

Large segmental bone regeneration remains a great challenge due to the lack of
vascularization in newly formed bone. Conventional strategies primarily combine bone …

Biomedical implants have been widely used in various orthopedic treatments, including total
hip arthroplasty, joint arthrodesis, fracture fixation, non-union, dental repair, etc. The modern …

Background The therapeutic potential of exosomes derived from stem cells has attracted
increasing interest recently, because they can exert similar paracrine functions of stem cells …

Tissue engineering has been an inveterate area in the field of regenerative medicine for
several decades. However, there remains limitations to engineer and regenerate tissues …

Smart or stimuli-responsive materials are an emerging class of materials used for tissue
engineering and drug delivery. A variety of stimuli (including temperature, pH, redox-state …

The failure to repair critical‐sized bone defects often leads to incomplete regeneration or
fracture non‐union. Tissue‐engineered grafts have been recognized as an alternative …

Stem cell fate is closely intertwined with microenvironmental and endogenous cues within
the body. Recapitulating this dynamic environment ex vivo can be achieved through …
