ABSTRACT
The restoration of cartilage injuries remains a formidable challenge in orthopedics, chiefly attributed to the absence of vascularization and innervation in cartilage. Decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) derived from cartilage, following antigenic removal through decellularization processes, has exhibited remarkable biocompatibility and bioactivity, rendering it a viable candidate for cartilage repair. Additionally, extracellular vesicles (EVs) generated from cartilage have demonstrated a synergistic effect when combined with dECM, potentially mitigating the inhibitory impact on protein synthesis by phosphorylating 4ebp, thereby promoting the synthesis of cartilage-related proteins such as collagen. In pursuit of this objective, we have innovated a novel bioink and repair scaffold characterized by exceptional biocompatibility, bioactivity, and biodegradability, establishing a tissue-specific microenvironment conducive to chondrogenesis. Within rat osteochondral defects, the biologically active scaffold successfully prompted the formation of transparent cartilage, featuring adequate mechanical strength, favorable elasticity, and dECM deposition indicative of cartilage. In summary, this study has effectively engineered a hydrogel bioink tailored for cartilage repair and devised a bioactive cartilage repair scaffold proficient in instigating cell differentiation and fostering cartilage repair.
