Full human-based multi-scale constructs with jammed regenerative pockets for bone engineering
Engineered bone tissue has been viewed as a potential alternative to the traditional use of bone grafts, due to their limitless supply and no disease transmission. However, bone tissue engineering practices have not proceeded to clinical practice as it was not yet possible to fully recreate the right conditions to produce relevant large vascularized grafts and enabling their in vivo integration and remodelling. REBORN proposes rather unique toolboxes combining bionstructive biomaterials only based on human proteins obtained from the amniotic membrane (AM) and cells from the umbilical/blood cord for the ground-breaking advances of engineering totally time-self-regulated complex 3D devices,…
