Natural biopolymers in bone tissue engineering from aquatic resources: A review
Bone tissue engineering is a rapidly expanding research areathat usesan artificial scaffold as a template for new tissue formation by culturing osteoblasts, along with adding regulating factors that promote cell recruitment, growth differentiation, and mineralized bone tissue.Different natural and syntheticmaterialsand their combinations are used for this purpose. However, polymers have many advantages to use as scaffolds in bone tissue engineering, and therefore, their application in tissue engineering has been widened in recent years.In this work, we aimed to review thosenatural polymersthat are used inbone tissue engineeringwith an emphasis on those originating from natural aquatic resources. In this regard, the recent findings in the applicationof those natural biopolymers and their characterization viz. hydroxyapatite, starch, fibrinogen, silk fibroin, alginate,gelatin, chitosan, and collagenfor useas scaffolds in bone tissue engineering were discussed
