description <p>In bone tissue engineering, scaffolds with excellent mechanical and bioactive properties play prominent roles in space maintaining and bone regeneration, attracting increasingly interests in clinical practice. In this study, strontium-incorporated β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), named Sr-TCP, bioceramic triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) structured scaffolds were successfully fabricated by digital light processing (DLP)-based 3D printing technique, achieving high porosity, enhanced strength, and excellent bioactivity. The Sr-TCP scaffolds were first characterized by element distribution, macrostructure and microstructure, and mechanical properties. Notably, the compressive strength of the scaffolds reached 1.44 MPa with porosity of 80%, bringing a great mechanical breakthrough to porous scaffolds. Furthermore, the Sr-TCP scaffolds also facilitated osteogenic differentiation of mouse osteoblastic cell line (MC3T3-E1) cells in both gene and protein aspects, verified by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. Overall, the 3D-printed Sr-TCP bioceramic TPMS structured scaffolds obtained high porosity, boosted strength, and superior bioactivity at the same time, serving as a promising approach for bone regeneration.</p>
