We performed a comparative study of the localization, distribution, metabolic activity, and surface properties of human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells after static and perfusion seeding to macroporous alginate cryogels. A simple perfusion system for mesenchymal stromal cell seeding to macroporous alginate cryogel sponges proposed in this study resulted in rapid and uniform distribution of cells within the whole volume of the scaffold preserving functional and morphological properties of the cells.

Pyrophosphate-stabilized amorphous calcium carbonates (PyACC) are promising compounds for bone repair due to their ability to release calcium, carbonate, and phosphate ions following pyrophosphate hydrolysis. However, shaping these metastable and brittle materials using conventional methods remains a challenge, especially in the form of macroporous scaffolds, yet essential to promote cell colonization. To overcome these limitations, this article describes for the first time the design and multiscale characterization of freeze-cast alginate (Alg)-PyACC nanocomposite scaffolds.

Currently, materials with specific, strictly defined functional properties are becoming increasingly important. A promising strategy for achieving these properties involves developing methods that facilitate the formation of hierarchical porous materials that combine micro-, meso-, and macropores in their structure. Macropores facilitate effective mass transfer of substances to the meso- and micropores, where further adsorption or reaction processes can occur.

Medical practice has proven that chronic wounds can be treated successfully if the dressing is chosen according to the healing phase of the wound. Correct intervention from the hemostasis and inflammatory phase can prevent oxidative stress and ensure optimal conditions for healing. It is important to design a new wound dressing that does not cause additional injury, has an antioxidant effect, removes dead cells, and promotes wound healing.

Improved design to imitate natural vascular scaffolds is critical in vascular tissue engineering (VTE). Smooth muscle cells originating from surrounding tissues require larger pore sizes relative to those of endothelial progenitor cells found in the bloodstream. Furthermore, biofunctionalized scaffolds mimic the microenvironment, cellular function, and tissue morphogenesis.

Critical-sized bone defects (CSBDs) necessitate interventions like bone grafts or tissue engineering scaffolds to surpass the body's limited spontaneous healing capacity and ensure effective bone regeneration. A multi-level microstructured composite hydrogel 3D scaffold was fabricated for enhanced bone defect repair, integrating a 3D-printed macroporous polylactic acid (PLA) scaffold with polydopamine treatment and filled with a sodium alginate/nano hydroxyapatite/carboxymethyl chitosan (SA/nHA/CMCS) micrometer-scale porous composite hydrogel. The incorporation of nano hydroxyapatite (nHA) nanoparticles enhanced hydrogel crosslinking and osteogenic activity.
