The tissue engineering approach for repairing osteochondral (OC) defects involves the
fabrication of a biological tissue scaffold that mimics the physiological properties of natural …

This review describes the role of bone cells and their surrounding matrix in maintaining
bone strength through the process of bone remodeling. Subsequently, this work focusses on …

Biophysical cues play a key role in directing the lineage commitment of mesenchymal stem
cells or multipotent stromal cells (MSC s), but the mechanotransductive mechanisms at play …

Accelerating orthodontic tooth movement can significantly reduce treatment duration and
risks of side effects. The rate of orthodontic tooth movement is chiefly determined by the …

Integration between tendon/ligament and bone occurs through a specialized tissue interface
called enthesis. The complex and heterogeneous structure of the enthesis is essential to …

NiTi foams are unique among biocompatible porous metals because of their high recovery
strain (due to the shape-memory or superelastic effects) and their low stiffness facilitating …

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold great potential for regenerative medicine and tissue-
engineering applications. They have multipotent differentiation capabilities and have been …

With a rapid increase in the aging population, osteoporosis has become a global health
problem. Although anti-resorption and anabolic drugs are available, osteoporosis cannot be …

Combining stem cells with biomaterial scaffolds serves as a promising strategy for
engineering tissues for both in vitro and in vivo applications. This updated review details …

It is becoming increasingly clear that mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation is
regulated by mechanical signals. Mechanical forces generated intrinsically within the cell in …
