Calcium silicate (CS) is a suitable substrate for bone tissue engineering because it can provide bioactive ions like Si4+ and Ca2+ to promote regeneration. However, the rapid degradation of CS leads pH problems does not match rate osteogenesis. The 3D printed scaffolds were immersed in Polycaprolactone (PCL) solution obtain PCL-coated with improved mechanical biological properties. Finite element method (FEM) analysis found that PCL impregnation has effect stress shielding defect healing, effectively improving properties porous scaffolds. was significantly slowed down Tris buffer. After 4 weeks degradation, compressive strength remained at 23.34 MPa, maintaining reliable coating reduced scaffolds, value Si ion concentration Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) soaked by more favorable cell survival. results show enhance proliferation osteogenic differentiation, demonstrating potential applicability applications.

Abstract Currently, material extrusion‐based additive manufacturing (MEAM) technique, also known as fused filament fabrication (FFF) technique has been widely used to prepare customized porous scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. However, often lack desirable osteogenic properties due the poor hydrophilicity of polymer materials FFF technique. In this work, biocompatible suitable are prepared by blending polycaprolactone (PCL), polylactic acid (PLA), and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) at various compositions. These composite subsequently printed into cylindrical with controllable pore sizes ranging from 200–800 µm, regulating infill density during process. The FFF‐printed have highest modulus a PLA/PCL ratio 0.7 size ≈ 200 µm. Furthermore, surface treatment is applied these in sodium hydroxide solution. As result, roughness, serum adsorption significantly enhanced. More importantly, surface‐treated can promote differentiation MC3T3‐E1 cells, comparable commercial Bio‐Oss substitutes. Thus, study offers cost‐effective development bioactive potential engineering applications.

During bone regeneration, the periosteum acts as a carrier for key regenerative cues, delivering osteochondroprogenitor cells and crucial growth factors to injured bone. We developed biocompatible, 3D polycaprolactone (PCL) melt electro-written membrane act mimetic periosteum. Poly (ethyl acrylate) coating of PCL allowed functionalization, mediated by fibronectin low dose recombinant human BMP-2 (rhBMP-2) (10-25 μg/ml), resulting in efficient, sustained osteoinduction vitro. In vivo, rhBMP-2 functionalized demonstrated potential treatment rat critical-size femoral defects with highly efficient healing functional recovery (80%-93%). Mimetic has also proven be cell delivery, observed through migration transplanted periosteum-derived mesenchymal defect their survival.
