A scaffold for hard tissue regeneration comprising an active ingredient for treating osteoporosis and a preparation method thereof. The scaffold for hard tissue regeneration is prepared by the steps of mixing a polyphenol-based natural substance containing Quercetein or Genistein involved in the activation of osteoblasts and osteoclasts and the biofunctional analog thereof with a ceramic scaffold material and molding the mixture at room temperature into a three-dimensional scaffold. The biofunctional material included in the scaffold above may be sustain-released slowly over the long period of time so that the osteoblast activity is directly improved and at the same time the osteoclast activity is suppressed in the course of bone regeneration, to have the effect of improving bone regeneration.

The present invention relates to an extrudable photocrosslinkable hydrogel comprising a biochemically modified extracellular matrix (ECM) with an electroconductive nanomaterial embedded; a photoinitiator and a solvent, the method for its preparation starting from decellularized extracellular matrices (dECMs) and its applications for preparing electroconductive scaffolds, electroconductive extrudable hydrogels for in situ defect-filling, conductive grafts, in situ or in vitro printed tissues or organs, adhesives for different tissues, or bone adhesives.

Absorbable composite medical devices such as surgical meshes and braided sutures, which display two or more absorption/biodegradation and breaking strength retention profiles and exhibit unique properties in different clinical settings, are made using combinations of at least two types of yarns having distinctly different physicochemical and biological properties and incorporate in the subject construct special designs to provide a range of unique properties as clinically useful implants.

Methods of preparing a functionalized nanofiber preparing a dispersion of a polymer and a water soluble synthetic construct of the structure F-S-L in admixture in a liquid medium; and then electrospinning the polymer from the liquid medium to provide the functionalized nanofiber. F is the functional moiety, L is a lipid and S is a spacer linking F to L via covalent bonds.

A biological composition has a mixture of mechanically selected allogeneic biologic material derived from bone marrow. The mixture has non-whole cellular components including vesicular components and active and inactive components of biological activity, cell fragments, cellular excretions, cellular derivatives, and extracellular components. The mixture including non-whole cell fractions including one or more of exosomes, transcriptosomes, proteasomes, membrane rafts, lipid rafts. The mixture is compatible with biologic function.

Novel absorbable polymer blends are disclosed. The blends are useful for manufacturing medical devices having engineered degradation and breaking strength retention in vivo. The blends consist of a first absorbable polymeric component and a second absorbable polymeric component. The weight average molecular weight of the first polymeric component is higher than the weight average molecular weight of the second polymeric component. At least at least one of said components is at least partially end-capped by a carboxylic acid group. Further aspects are medical devices made therefrom.

A multi-sheet extracellular matrix (ECM) structure for tissue regeneration, the ECM structure having joined first and second ECM sheet members and an agent dispersal network disposed between the sheets, the dispersal network being configured to receive and transfer a bioactive agent through the network and, when the ECM structure is attached to tissue, administer the bioactive agent to the tissue.
