ABSTRACT
Bone defects, resulting from trauma, inflammation, tumors, and various other factors, affect both health and quality of life. Although autologous bone transplantation is the gold-standard treatment for bone defects, it has disadvantages such as donor site limitations, prolonged surgical durations, and potential complications, necessitating the development of alternative bone tissue engineering materials. In this study, we used 3D printing technology to fabricate porous titanium implants characterized by superior biocompatibility and mechanical properties. Sodium alginate (SA) and strontium ions (Sr2+) were integrated into mineralized collagen matrices (MCs) to develop strontium-functionalized alginate-mineralized collagen hydrogels (SAMs) with high mechanical strength and sustained metal ion release ability. SAMs were seamlessly incorporated into the porous structures of 3D-printed titanium scaffolds, establishing a novel organic-inorganic bioactive interface. This composite system exhibited high biocompatibility in vitro and increased the expression of genes important for osteogenic differentiation and angiogenesis. In a rabbit model of femoral defect, the titanium implants effectively promoted bone and vascular regeneration on their surface, highlighting their potential in facilitating bone-implant integration.
