Streszczenie:

Bone defects resulting from congenital anomalies and trauma pose significant clinical challenges for orthopedics surgeries, where bone tissue engineering (BTE) aims to address these challenges by repairing defects that fail to heal spontaneously. Despite numerous advances, BTE still faces several challenges, i.e., difficulties in detecting and tracking implanted cells, high costs, and regulatory approval hurdles. Biomaterials promise to revolutionize bone grafting procedures, heralding a new era of regenerative medicine and advancing patient outcomes worldwide. Specifically, novel bioactive biomaterials have been developed that promote cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation and have osteoconductive and osteoinductive characteristics, stimulating tissue regeneration and repair, particularly in complex skeletal defects caused by trauma, degeneration, and neoplasia. A wide array of biological therapeutics for bone regeneration have emerged, drawing from the diverse spectrum of gene therapy, immune cell interactions, and RNA molecules. This review will provide insights into the current state and potential of future strategies for bone regeneration.
