Degradability is vital for bone filling and plays an important role in bone regeneration. Evidence indicates that apatite-based calcium phosphate cement (ACPC) is a prospective biomaterial for bone repair with enhanced osteogenesis. However, poor degradability restricts their clinical application. In this study, MgZnCa-doped ACPC (MgZnCa/ACPC) composites were fabricated by adding 3 (wt) % amorphous MgZnCa powder in the solid phase of ACPC to enhance the biodegradation and bioactivity of the apatite ACPC. The chemical and the physical properties of the MgZnCa/ACPC composite were investigated and compared with the ACPC composite. The results showed that the incorporation of MgZnCa improved both the degradability and the compressive strength of the ACPC composite. X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry analysis suggested significant changes in the microstructures of the composites due to the incorporation and the anodic dissolution of MgZnCa alloy. These findings indicate that the MgZnCa/ACPC composite is capable of facilitating bone repair and regeneration by endowing favorable degradation property.

The treatment and regeneration of bone defects, especially tumor-induced defects, is an issue in clinical practice and remains a major challenge for bone substitute material invention. In this research, a composite material of biomimetic bone-like apatite based on trace element co-doped apatite (Ca M (PO)(CO)(OH); M = trace elements of Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn, Cu, Ni, Mo, Sr and BO ; THA)-integrated-biocompatible magnetic Mn-Zn ferrite ((Mn, Zn)FeO nanoparticles, BioMags) called THAiBioMags was prepared a co-precipitation method. Its characteristics, , physical properties, hyperthermia performance, ion/drug delivery, were investigated using osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) and using zebrafish.

The grand discovery of morphogens, or "form-generating substances", revealed that tissue morphogenesis is initiated by soluble molecular signals or morphogens primarily belonging to the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) supergene family. The regenerative potential of bone rests on its extracellular matrix, which is the repository of several morphogens that tightly control cellular differentiating pathways, cellular matrix deposition and remodeling. Alluringly, the matrix also contains specific factors transferred from the heterotopic implanted bone matrices initiating "Tissue Induction", as provocatively described in Nature in 1945.

Calcium phosphates are widely studied in orthopedics and dentistry, to obtain biomimetic and antibacterial implants. However, the multi-substituted composition of mineralized tissues is not fully reproducible from synthetic procedures. Here, for the first time, we investigate the possible use of a natural, fluorapatite-based material, , seashell, resembling the composition of bone and enamel, as a biomaterial source for orthopedics and dentistry.

According to the previous studies of sialolithiasis reported so far, this study is aimed to identify the biological components of sialolith, which show different ultrastructures and chemical compositions from other stones, cholelith and urolith. Twenty-two specimens obtained from 20 patients were examined histologically, and analyzed with micro-CT, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). All sialoliths (n = 22) observed in this study showed a central nidus, which was filled with organoid matrix admixed with exosome vesicles, loose calcium apatite crystals, and many bacteria.
