Decellularized Cortical Bone Scaffold Promotes Organized Neovascularization In Vivo

Bone loss and skeletal deficiencies due to musculoskeletal diseases, traumatic injury, abnormal development, and cancer are major problems worldwide, frequently requiring surgical intervention. There has been a shift in paradigm to utilize tissue engineering applications. This novel bone technology has the potential to promote bone regeneration for large bone defects without the addition of growth factors and offers a unique architecture for cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation. This scaffold serves as a tailored therapeutic for bone injuries and defects, leading to an increased quality of life by decreasing the risk of reoccurring surgeries and complications.
