DNA-based hydrogels for bone regeneration: A promising tool for bone organoids by Xiang Wu, Yan Hu, Shihao Sheng, Huijian Yang, Zuhao Li, Qinglin Han, Qin Zhang, Jiacan Su

“…In this review, we underscore the advantages of DNA-based hydrogels, detailing their composition, gelation techniques, and structure optimization. We then delineate three critical elements in the promotion of bone regeneration using DNA-based hydrogels: (i) osteogenesis driven by phosphate ions, plasmids, and oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) that enhance mineralization and promote gene and protein expression; (ii) vascularization facilitated by tetrahedral DNA nanostructures (TDNs) and aptamers, which boosts gene expression and targeted release; (iii) immunomodulation achieved through loaded factors, TDNs, and bound ions that stimulate macrophage polarization and exhibit antibacterial properties. …”
