Abstract

Biomimetic mineralized collagen (BMC) scaffolds represent an innovative class of bone-repair biomaterials inspired by the natural biomineralization process in bone tissue. Owing to their favorable biocompatibility and mechanical properties, BMC scaffolds have garnered significant attention in bone tissue engineering. However, most studies have overlooked the importance of bioactivity, resulting in collagen scaffolds with suboptimal osteogenic potential. In this review, the composition of the mineralized extracellular matrix (ECM) in bone tissue is discussed to provide guidance for biomimetic collagen mineralization. Subsequently, according to the detailed fabrication procedure of BMC scaffolds, the substances that can regulate both the fabrication process and biological activities is summarized. Furthermore, a potential strategy for developing BMC scaffolds with superior mechanical properties and biological activities for bone tissue engineering is proposed.
