ABSTRACT
With the emerging trends and recent advances in nanotechnology, it has become increasingly possible to overcome current hurdles for bone and cartilage regeneration. Among the wide type of nanomaterials, graphene (G) and its derivatives (graphene-based materials, GBMs) have been highlighted due to the specific physicochemical and biological properties. In this review, we present the recent development of GBM-based scaffolds for bone and cartilage engineering, focusing on the formulation/shape/size-dependent characteristics, types of scaffold and modification, biocompatibility, bioactivity and underlying mechanism, drawback and prospect of each study. From the findings described herein, mechanical property, biocompatibility, osteogenic and chondrogenic property of GBM-based scaffolds could be significantly enhanced through various scaffold fabrication methods and conjugation with polymers/nanomaterials/drugs. In conclusion, the results presented in this review support the promising prospect of using GBM-based scaffolds for improved bone and cartilage tissue engineering. Although GBM-based scaffolds have some limitations to be overcome by future research, we expect further developments to provide innovative results and improve their clinical potential for bone and cartilage regeneration.
