Abstract The repair of hierarchical osteochondral defects requires complex gradient reconstruction at different levels, with continuous‐gradient mineralization being crucial. Strategies for achieving have rarely been reported. Here, a mineralized hydrogel is prepared using simple gravitational osmosis ≈2 nm amorphous calcium phosphate nanocluster (ACPC) suspension into composite organic frameworks regeneration. During infiltration, ACPC underwent gradual mineralization, resulting in the...

Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) is a chronic systemic bone metabolism disorder. Promotion in the patterns of human marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) differentiation towards osteoblasts contributes to alleviating osteoporosis. Aucubin, natural compound isolated from well-known herbal medicine Eucommia, was previously shown possess various pharmacological effects. However, its effects on hBMSCs PMOP patients are unknown. The aim this present research investigate impact and underlying...

Abstract Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a leading cause of low back pain, with limited effective treatments due to an incomplete understanding disease mechanisms. In this study, we report that circFUNDC1, nuclear circular RNA, markedly downregulated in nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs) from patients end-stage IVDD. CircFUNDC1 derived the gene encoding FUN14 domain-containing 1 (FUNDC1) protein, which essential for mitophagy and cell survival. Functional analyses reveal circFUNDC1...
