Bone is a dynamic and highly vascularized tissue that continues to remodel throughout the lifetime. It plays an integral role in locomotion, load-bearing capacity, and acts as a protective casing for the internal organs of the body. Current challenges include the engineering of materials that can match both the mechanical and biological context of real bone tissue matrix and support the vascularization of large tissue constructs. Scaffolds with new levels of biofunctionality that attempt to recreate nanoscale topographical and biofactor cues from the extracellular environment are emerging as interesting candidate biomimetic materials.
