3D printing Powder-based powder of bulk polymers; ceramics Fast processing; low costs; no toxic components; water used as binder Material must be in Bone [47], powder form; weak bonding between powder particles; rough surface; trapped powder issue; might require post- processing 3D plotting ...
Typically, toxicity testing of materials intended for implantation in human must be complemented by evaluating their potential inhibitory effect on immune cells. To do so, here a mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) test that is commonly used as part of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ...
These characteristics are closely related to the morphology and surface roughness of the scaffold. The pore sizes and surface roughness of the scaffold must match the requirements of bone regeneration to facilitate the attachment, migration, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and ...
Graphene is a flat monolayer of carbon atoms, arranged in a two-dimensional hexagonal structure, with extraordinary electrical, thermal, and physical properties. Moreover, the molecular structure of graphene can be chemically modified with molecules of i
The objective of this analysis is to pinpoint the essential attributes (such as printability and biocompatibility) of biomaterials and to provide guidance on the materials design for implantable vessel scaffolds. Thus, this article initially outlines the standards that must be satisfied by implantable ...
In many situations, this is an adaptive response to microenvironmental stress at a secondary site whereby disseminated tumor cells must respond to unknown signals from the niche in order to survive [143]. Over time, dormant cancer cells become reawakened, leading to cancer cell prolifer...

The mechanical strength and elasticity of the vascular scaffold are the key factors to engineer the blood vessel. When the vascular scaffold is implanted into the body, it must have the ability to bear the pressure of blood and possess a viscoelasticity similar to that of the native vessels [...
