Abstract

Spatial dimension of pores and interconnection in macroporous scaffolds is of particular importance in facilitating endogenous cell migration and bone tissue ingrowth. However, it is still a challenge to widely tune structure parameters of scaffolds by conventional methods because of inevitable pore geometrical deformation and poor pore interconnectivity. Here, the long-term in vivo biological performances of nonstoichiometric bioceramic scaffolds with different pore dimensions were assessed in critical-size femoral bone defect model. The 6% Mg-substituted wollastonite (CSi-Mg6) powders were prepared via wet-chemical precipitation and the scaffolds elaborately printed by ceramic stereolithography, displaying designed constant pore strut and tailorable pore height (200, 320, 450, 600 μm), were investigated thoroughly in the bone regeneration process. Together with detailed structural stability and mechanical properties were collaboratively outlined. Both μCT and histological analyses indicated that bone tissue ingrowth was retarded in 200 μm scaffolds in the whole stage (2-16 weeks) but the 320 μm scaffolds showed appreciable bone tissue in the center of porous constructs at 6-10 weeks and matured bone tissue were uniformly inva...Continue Reading

Cell Migration

Cell migration is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes such as embryonic development, cancer metastasis, blood vessel formation and remoulding, tissue regeneration, immune surveillance and inflammation. Here is the latest research.
