According to a foreign science and technology news website reported on September 29, scientists printed a highly elastic biomaterial 3D into artificial bones, successfully stimulated the injured spine and skull to generate new bones, and repaired the wound. This technology is expected to be tested in humans within 5 years, and personalized bone grafting is just around the corner.
According to reports, the Northwestern University research team published a report on the biomaterial "Hyper-Elastic Bone" (HB) in the journal Science Translational Medicine.
According to the report, “superelastic bones†are mostly made of ceramics, containing minerals found in teeth and bones, and polymers. Unlike bone graft materials that are generally expensive, too fragile, difficult to mold, and fear of rejection, "super-elastic bones" are inexpensive, can be printed in many shapes, and are cut, folded, joined, elastic, and tough. It can also be used simply and quickly in the operating room.
The team transplanted the “super-elastic bones†into the injured spine of the mouse and found that the “super-elastic bones†quickly merged with the surrounding cell tissue to regenerate the bones, thus promoting the fusion of the mouse spine, and the results were quite impressive.
Researchers hope to use this artificial bone in spinal, dental reconstruction and bone cancer surgery in the future to provide tailor-made bone grafts for patients.
