This study aimed to develop a bioimplantable scaffold with osteoinductive and antituberculosis characteristics to treat BJTB.Methods: This scaffold is built on oxidized hyaluronic acid and carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel mixed with hydroxyapatite as a bone tissue engineered material. In order to make the scaffold have the biological activity of promoting tissue repair, the engineered exosomes (Exoeng) were added innovatively. In addition, drug-loaded liposomes equipped with an aldehyde group on the surface are cross-linked with the amine group of the hydrogel skeleton to participate in the Schiff base reaction.Results: The designed scaffold has characteristics of self-healing and injectability exhibit excellent anti-tuberculosis and promoting bone repair activities. Exoeng strongly stimulates cellular angiogenesis and osteogenic differentiation. The liposomes coated in hydrogel can release three kinds of anti-tuberculosis drugs smoothly and slowly, achieving a long term anti-tuberculosis.Conclusion: The composite bio-scaffold shows good tissue repair and long-term anti-tuberculosis abilities, which expected to provide a viable treatment plan for bone-related BJTB.Keywords: hydrogel scaffolds, engineered exosomes, triple anti-tuberculosis drugs loaded, bone and joint tuberculosis, therapy
