Their versatility allows addition of effector functions to invoke cell phenotypes following target engagement inside cells. Moreover, the paratope–epitope interaction of intracellular antibodies has been recently exploited to develop small molecule surrogates.

This review delves into the latest research concerning how the cytoskeleton safeguards the nucleus from mechanical perturbations. Specifically, we focus on the three primary cytoskeletal polymers: actin, intermediate filaments, and microtubules, as well as their interactions with the cell nucleus.

Smart biomaterials offer exceptional features by rearranging themselves into diverse conformations upon exposure to physical (e.g., magnetic, temperature, electric field, and light), chemical (e.g., pH and ionic strength), or biological (e.g., enzymes) stimuli. By engineering conventional biomaterials into three-dimensional smart porous constructs (i.e., grafts) with novel sensory materials through a range of chemical and physical processing routes, it is possible to mimic the diverse mechanical, biological, and physiochemical nature of bone tissue. The resulting smart grafts can efficiently deliver the appropriate signals and guide the stem cells to promote tissue regeneration. In addition, they regulate the release of various bioactive agents in response to external and internal stimuli while combatting infections at the wound sites. This review discusses numerous strategies to engineer synthetic polymers to yield stimuli-responsive smart grafts suitable for bone tissue engineering.
