Abstract
Smart biomaterials with active environmental responsiveness have attracted widespread attention in recent years. Previous studies on bioactive glass (BG) have mainly focused on the property of bioactivity, while little attention has been paid to the property of smart response of BG. Herein, we propose the concept of Smart Bioactive Glass Composites (SBGC) which are capable of actively responding to the endogenous disease microenvironment or exogenous physical stimuli, thereby enabling active treatment of tissue defect sites and ultimately promoting tissue regeneration. In this review, the response characteristics of SBGC to different internal and external environments are described. Subsequently, the applications of SBGC in complex tissue defect repair of tumors, infections, and diabetes are reviewed. By deeply analyzing the recent progress of SBGC in different fields, this review will point out the direction for the research of next-generation BG.
期刊介绍:
Theranostics serves as a pivotal platform for the exchange of clinical and scientific insights within the diagnostic and therapeutic molecular and nanomedicine community, along with allied professions engaged in integrating molecular imaging and therapy. As a multidisciplinary journal, Theranostics showcases innovative research articles spanning fields such as in vitro diagnostics and prognostics, in vivo molecular imaging, molecular therapeutics, image-guided therapy, biosensor technology, nanobiosensors, bioelectronics, system biology, translational medicine, point-of-care applications, and personalized medicine. Encouraging a broad spectrum of biomedical research with potential theranostic applications, the journal rigorously peer-reviews primary research, alongside publishing reviews, news, and commentary that aim to bridge the gap between the laboratory, clinic, and biotechnology industries.
