Abstract
Bone is a calcified tissue composed of 60% inorganic compounds, 30% organic compounds, and 10% water. Bone exhibits an intrinsic regenerative capacity, enabling it to heal after fractures or adapt during growth. However, in cases of severe injury or extensive tissue loss, this regenerative capacity becomes insufficient, often necessitating bone graft surgeries using autografts or allografts. Conventional grafting approaches present several limitations, driving the development of alternative strategies in tissue engineering. The system of hydrogel-nanoparticles (NPs) represents a new class of biomaterials designed to combine the advantages of both materials while mitigating their drawbacks. This review focuses on a combination of nature-based hydrogels with different types of nanoparticles and discusses their potential applications in bone regeneration.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Functional Biomaterials (JFB, ISSN 2079-4983) is an international and interdisciplinary scientific journal that publishes regular research papers (articles), reviews and short communications about applications of materials for biomedical use. JFB covers subjects from chemistry, pharmacy, biology, physics over to engineering. The journal focuses on the preparation, performance and use of functional biomaterials in biomedical devices and their behaviour in physiological environments. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Several topical special issues will be published. Scope: adhesion, adsorption, biocompatibility, biohybrid materials, bio-inert materials, biomaterials, biomedical devices, biomimetic materials, bone repair, cardiovascular devices, ceramics, composite materials, dental implants, dental materials, drug delivery systems, functional biopolymers, glasses, hyper branched polymers, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), nanomedicine, nanoparticles, nanotechnology, natural materials, self-assembly smart materials, stimuli responsive materials, surface modification, tissue devices, tissue engineering, tissue-derived materials, urological devices.
