Summary: | Nanomaterials with bone-mimicking characteristics and easily internalized by the cell could create suitable microenvironments in which to regulate the therapeutic effects of bone regeneration. This review provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art research in developing and using nanomaterials for better bone injury repair. First, an overview of the hierarchical architecture from the macroscale to the nanoscale of natural bone is presented, as these bone tissue microstructures and compositions are the basis for constructing bone substitutes. Next, urgent clinical issues associated with bone injury that require resolution and the potential of nanomaterials to overcome them are discussed. Finally, nanomaterials are classified as inorganic or organic based on their chemical properties. Their basic characteristics and the results of related bone engineering studies are described. This review describes theoretical and technical bases for the development of innovative methods for repairing damaged bone and should inspire therapeutic strategies with potential for clinical applications. |
