AbstractIn the last decade, the development of third generation bioceramics for Bone Tissue Regeneration has experienced significant progress with the emergence of a new generation of nanostructured materials named mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBG). This new generation of materials, also known as “templated glasses”, presents chemical compositions similar to those of conventional bioactive sol–gel glasses and the added value of an ordered mesopore arrangement. This article shows an indepth comparative study of the ordered porous structures of MBGs compared to conventional glasses (melt and solgel) andhowthese properties influence the bioactivity process. Moreover, the possibility to tailor the textural and structural properties of these nanostructured materials by an exhaustive control of the different synthesis parameters is also discussed. A brief overview regarding the possibility of using these materials as controlled drug delivery systems and as starting materials for the fabrication of 3D scaffolds for bone tissue regeneration is also given.

Injectable nanoscale hydroxyapatite (nHA) systems are highly promising biomaterials to address clinical needs in bone tissue regeneration, due to their excellent biocompatibility, bioinspired nature, and ability to be delivered in a minimally invasive manner. Bulk strontium-substituted hydroxyapatite (SrHA) is reported to encourage bone tissue growth by stimulating bone deposition and reducing bone resorption, but there are no detailed reports describing the preparation of a systematic substitution up to 100% at the nanoscale. The aim of this work was therefore to fabricate systematic series (0–100 atomic% Sr) of SrHA pastes and gels using two different rapid-mixing methodological approaches, wet precipitation and sol-gel. The full range of nanoscale SrHA materials were successfully prepared using both methods, with a measured substitution very close to the calculated amounts. As anticipated, the SrHA samples showed increased radiopacity, a beneficial property to aid in vivo or clinical monitoring of the material in situ over time. For indirect methods, the greatest cell viabilities were observed for the 100% substituted SrHA paste and gel, while direct viability results were most likely influenced by material disaggregation in the tissue culture media. It was concluded that nanoscale SrHAs were superior biomaterials for applications in bone surgery, due to increased radiopacity and improved biocompatibility.

Joint replacement and bone reconstructive surgeries are on the rise globally. Current strategies for implants and bone regeneration are associated with poor integration and healing resulting in repeated surgeries. A multidisciplinary approach involving basic biological sciences, tissue engineering, regenerative medicine and clinical research is required to overcome this problem. Considering the nanostructured nature of bone, expertise and resources available through recent advancements in nanobiotechnology enable researchers to design and fabricate devices and drug delivery systems at the nanoscale to be more compatible with the bone tissue environment. The focus of this review is to present the recent progress made in the rationale and design of nanomaterials for tissue engineering and drug delivery relevant to bone regeneration.
