Abstract:
Since bone tissue lesions caused by several reasons and has global outbreak without any attentions to the modernity level of the countries. In the other hands treatment of patients with this problem faced to the several limitations, in this because the future of the bone lesions treatments is related to the future of the bone tissue engineering. This review tries to cover the most suitable stem cells and materials from either natural or synthetic sources for bone tissue engineering. These understanding points would help researchers to further uncover the application of different adult stem cell sources in electrospinning scaffolds, promotion of nanofibrous composite construct design and adult stem cell type selection to enhance cell function and bone tissue engineering, and link laboratory investigations to clinical applications.

Distinctive Features of Adult Stem Cells vs Cancer Stem Cells
Adult stem cells
Adult stem cells are tissue-specific; hence, they divide to develop the tissue from which they originate. One type of adult stem cell is the epithelial stem cell, which gives rise to the keratinocytes in the multiple layers of epithelial cells in the epidermis of the skin. Adult bone marrow has three distinct types of stem cells:...
