Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Zhezhe Zhao"
- Zhezhe Zhao's recent research primarily focuses on bioinspired materials and drug delivery systems aimed at enhancing bone healing and osseointegration in dental and orthopedic applications, particularly through the use of hydrogels and extracellular vesicles.
- A notable study highlights the development of a minocycline-loaded glycopeptide hydrogel that addresses irreversible alveolar bone resorption associated with periodontitis, demonstrating its ability to mediate osteoclast activity and promote bone homeostasis.
- Additional investigations involve the use of surface modifications on 3D-printed titanium implants to foster osteogenic processes, with findings stressing the effectiveness of multifunctional peptides to capture exosomes and accelerate osseointegration, essential for successful surgical implants.
