BACKGROUND:With the development of tissue engineering technology, repairing large-area bone defects using tissue-engineered bone has become a hot spot.
OBJECTIVE:To introduce the bone tissue engineering seed cel s, cytokines, as wel as the characteristics of scaffold materials and their vascularization.
METHODS:With the key words of“bone tissue engineering, scaffold, vascularization”in Chinese and in English, respectively, a computer-based search of articles published from January 2000 to January 2012 was performed in CNKI and PubMed databases. Articles with the summary of bone tissue engineering, bone tissue engineering scaffolds and scaffold vascularization were included.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The selection of seed cel s, application of cytokines, scaffold material performance and degree of vascularization in bone tissue engineering has an important influence on the repair of bone injuries. Appropriate seed cel s is the study foundation in bone tissue engineering, cytokines serve as catalysts, and scaffold materials with good three-dimensional structure can promote cel growth and proliferation, tissue ingrowth, osteogenesis and vascularization. Each scaffold has its own inadequacies, so the combination of a variety of materials can reach a combined effect to meet the clinical demand. In addition, it is important to actively seek new material preparation technology and improve the existing methods, in order to create a more excel ent scaffold. But the vascularization is stil a major test for bone tissue engineering. Current methods to promote vascularization of tissue-engineered bone have some defects. For examples, the use of growth factors to promote vascularization can lead to disease progression in patients with metabolic abnormalities during;microsurgical techniques for tissue engineering bone vascularization are easy to cause trauma and deformity at other parts, which is not conducive to the patient’s physical rehabilitation.
