Tissue engineering faces challenges in cell survival and predictable outcomes. Genetic engineering offers a promising strategy to enhance bone regeneration by improving cell mineralization capacity in scaffolds.

Area of Science:

  • Regenerative Medicine
  • Biomaterials Science
  • Genetic Engineering

Background:

  • Early tissue engineering relied on autologous cell transplantation for skin, cartilage, and bone marrow regeneration.
  • Significant challenges remain for widespread clinical application, including cell survival under mechanical stress and controlled differentiation.
  • Bone tissue engineering specifically requires robust cell sources and methods to prevent de-differentiation during expansion.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current strategies in bone tissue engineering, focusing on scaffold/cell constructs.
  • To highlight the role of genetic engineering in enhancing osteogenic potential.
  • To discuss technological platforms and future directions in bone regeneration.

Main Methods:

  • Review of recent literature on bone tissue engineering.
