Development of bioactive short fiber-reinforced printable hydrogels with tunable mechanical and osteogenic properties for bone repair
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Personalized bone-regenerative materials have attracted substantial interest in recent years. Modern clinical settings demand the use of engineered materials incorporating patient-derived cells, cytokines, antibodies, and biomarkers to enhance the process of regeneration. In this work, we formulated short microfiber-reinforced hydrogels with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to engineer implantable multi-material core-shell bone grafts. By employing 3D bioprinting technology, we fabricated a core-shell bone graft from a hybrid composite hydroxyapatite-coated poly(lactic acid) (PLA) fiber-reinforced methacryolyl gelatin (GelMA)/alginate hydrogel. The overall concept involves 3D bioprinting of long bone mimic microstructures that resemble a core-shell cancellous-cortical structure, with a stiffer shell and a softer core with our engineered biomaterial. We observed a significantly enhanced stiffness in the hydrogel scaffold incorporated with hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated PLA microfibers compared to the pristine hydrogel construct. Furthermore, HA non-coated PLA microfibers were mixed with PRF and GelMA/alginate hydrogel to introduce a slow release of growth factors which can further enhance cell maturation and differentiation. These patient-specific bone grafts deliver cytokines and growth factors with distinct spatiotemporal release profiles to enhance tissue regeneration. The biocompatible and bio-responsive bone mimetic core-shell multi-material structures enhance osteogenesis and can be customized to have materials at a specific location, geometry, and material combination.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
