As scientific advancements continue to reshape the world, it becomes increasingly crucial to uphold ethical standards and minimize the potentially adverse impact of research activities. In this context, the implementation of the 3R principles-Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement-has emerged as a prominent framework for promoting ethical research practices in the use of animals. This article aims to explore recent advances in integrating the 3R principles into fracture healing research, highlighting their potential to enhance animal welfare, scientific validity, and societal trust.

Cryogels, known for their biocompatibility and porous structure, lack mechanical strength, while 3D-printed scaffolds have excellent mechanical properties but limited porosity resolution. By combining a 3D-printed plastic gyroid lattice scaffold with a chitosan-gelatin cryogel scaffold, a scaffold can be created that balances the advantages of both fabrication methods. This study compared the pore diameter, swelling potential, mechanical characteristics, and cellular infiltration capability of combined scaffolds and control cryogels.

Damage caused by disease or trauma often leads to multi-tissue damage which is both painful and expensive for the patient. Despite the common occurrence of such injuries, reconstruction can be incredibly challenging and often may focus on a single tissue, which has been damaged to a greater extent, rather than the environment as a whole. Tissue engineering offers an approach to encourage repair, replacement, and regeneration using scaffolds, biomaterials and bioactive factors.
