Therefore, the injectable hydrogels have attracted an increasing interest for bone repair because of their fittability and mini-invasivity. However, the uncontrollable spreading or mechanical failures during its manipulation remain a problem to be solved. Moreover, in order to achieve vascularized bone regeneration, alternatives of osteogenic and angiogenic growth factors should be adopted to avoid the problem of immunogenicity and high cost. In this study, a novel injectable self-healing hydrogel system (GMO hydrogel) loaded with KP and QK peptides had been developed for enhancing vascularized regeneration of small irregular bone defect. The dynamic imine bonds between gelatin methacryloyl and oxidized dextran provided the GMO hydrogel with self-healing and shear-thinning abilities, which led to an excellent injectability and fittability. By photopolymerization of the enclosed GelMA, GMO hydrogel was further strengthened and thus more suitable for bone regeneration. Besides, the osteogenic peptide KP and angiogenic peptide QK were tethered to GMO hydrogel by Schiff base reaction, leading to desired releasing profiles. In vitro, this composite hydrogel could significantly improve the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and angiogenesis ability of HUVECs. In vivo, KP and QK in the GMO hydrogel demonstrated a significant synergistic effect in promoting new bone formation in rat calvaria. Overall, the KP and QK loaded GMO hydrogel was injectable and self-healing, which can be served as an efficient approach for vascularized bone regeneration via a minimally invasive approach.展开更多

We herein develop a biomimetic in situ-forming composite consisting of chitosan (CS) and mineralized collagen fibrils (nHAC), which has a complex hierarchical structure similar to natural bone. The CSInHAC composites with or without mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are injected into cancellous bone defects at the distal end of rabbit femurs. Defects are assessed by radiographic, histological diagnosis and Raman microscopy until 12 weeks. The results show that MSCs improve the biocompatibility of CS/nHAC composites and enhance new bone formation in vivo at 12 weeks. It can be concluded that the injectable CSInHAC composites combined with MSCs may be a novel method for reconstruction of irregular bone defects.展开更多
