Research hotspots and progress of bone repair materials in tissue engineering / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: With the improvement in medical level, the clinical demand for bone repair materials is gradually Increasing, and the requirements are also getting more and more. OBJECTIVE: To review the related research progress In the field of bone repair materials In recent years, to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of different materials, and to guide future development In this research field. METHODS: A computer-based online search of CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed, Web of Science databases was performed to retrieve papers published during 1950-2019 with the search terms “tissue engineering, bone repair material, bone defect, natural bone material, bone graft replacement material, traditional Chinese medicine” in Chinese and English. A total of over 900 papers were retrieved, and 68 of them were included In the final analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In recent year, with the flourish development of bone tissue engineering, the research of bone tissue repair materials is in the ascendant. In addition to optimizing natural bone, a variety of bone graft substitute materials have been developed, for example, natural macromolecule materials, synthetic macromolecule materials, biomedical ceramics materials, biomedical metal materials, etc., but these materials have different properties. Although there are many bone repair materials at present, the Ideal bone repair materials are few. Therefore, bone tissue repair and bone remodeling is still one of the urgent orthopedic problems to be solved In the clinic. In addition, the traditional Chinese medicine for bone repair, such as pyritum combined with modern bone repair materials, can effectively avoid some of the drawbacks of the current bone repair materials, thereby effectively treating bone defect diseases. This deserves In-depth investigation In the field of bone repair.
