Segmental bone defects, stemming from trauma, infection, and tumors, pose formidable clinical challenges. Traditional repair materials, such as autologous allogeneic grafts, grapple with limitations including source scarcity immune rejection risks. The advent of nucleic acid nanotechnology, particularly the use DNA hydrogels in tissue engineering, presents a promising solution, attributed to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, programmability. However, these hydrogels, typically hindered by high gelation temperatures (∼46 °C) construction costs, limit cell encapsulation broader application. Our research introduces novel polymer-modified hydrogel, developed using which gels at more biocompatible temperature 37 °C is cost-effective. This hydrogel then incorporates tetrahedral Framework Nucleic Acid (tFNA) enhance osteogenic mineralization. Furthermore, considering modifiability tFNA, we modified its chains Aptamer02 (Apt02), an aptamer known foster angiogenesis. dual approach significantly accelerates differentiation marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) angiogenesis human umbilical vein endothelial (HUVECs), sequencing confirming targeting efficacy, respectively. In vivo experiments rats critical-size cranial defects demonstrate effectiveness enhancing new formation. innovation not only offers viable solution for repairing segmental but also opens avenues future advancements organoids construction, marking significant advancement engineering regenerative medicine.

Articular cartilage, composed of chondrocytes within a dynamic viscoelastic matrix, has limited self-repair capacity, posing significant challenge for regeneration. Constructing high-fidelity cartilage organoids through three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting to replicate the structure and physiological functions is crucial regenerative medicine, drug screening, disease modeling. However, commonly used matrix bioinks lack reversible cross-linking precise controllability, hindering cellular regulation. Thus, encoding adaptive cultivating an attractive idea. DNA, with its ability be intricately encoded reversibly cross-linked into hydrogels, offers manipulation at both molecular spatial structural levels. This endows hydrogels viscoelasticity, printability, cell recognition, stimuli responsiveness. paper elaborates on strategies encode bioink via emphasizing regulation predictable properties resulting interactions behavior. The significance these construction highlighted. Finally, we discuss challenges future prospects using DNA-encoded 3D bioprinted organoids, underscoring their potential impact advancing biomedical applications.
