Bioengineered cartilaginous grafts for repairing segmental mandibular defects
(2024) In Journal of Tissue Engineering 15.- Abstract
Reconstructing critical-sized craniofacial bone defects is a global healthcare challenge. Current methods, like autologous bone transplantation, face limitations. Bone tissue engineering offers an alternative to autologous bone, with traditional approaches focusing on stimulating osteogenesis via the intramembranous ossification (IMO) pathway. However, IMO falls short in addressing larger defects, particularly in clinical scenarios where there is insufficient vascularisation. This review explores redirecting bone regeneration through endochondral ossification (ECO), a process observed in long bone healing stimulated by hypoxic conditions. Despite its promise, gaps exist in applying ECO to bone tissue engineering experiments, requiring... (More)
Reconstructing critical-sized craniofacial bone defects is a global healthcare challenge. Current methods, like autologous bone transplantation, face limitations. Bone tissue engineering offers an alternative to autologous bone, with traditional approaches focusing on stimulating osteogenesis via the intramembranous ossification (IMO) pathway. However, IMO falls short in addressing larger defects, particularly in clinical scenarios where there is insufficient vascularisation. This review explores redirecting bone regeneration through endochondral ossification (ECO), a process observed in long bone healing stimulated by hypoxic conditions. Despite its promise, gaps exist in applying ECO to bone tissue engineering experiments, requiring the elucidation of key aspects such as cell sources, biomaterials and priming protocols. This review discusses various scaffold biomaterials and cellular sources for chondrogenesis and hypertrophic chondrocyte priming, mirroring the ECO pathway. The review highlights challenges in current endochondral priming and proposes alternative approaches. Emphasis is on segmental mandibular defect repair, offering insights for future research and clinical application. This concise review aims to advance bone tissue engineering by addressing critical gaps in ECO strategies.
