A biomaterial with a channel-like pore architecture induces endochondral healing of bone defects

A bioengineering approach to enhance the regeneration of large bone defects is lacking. Here, the authors show that a biomaterial scaffold with a channel-like pore architecture enables organized endochondral ossification through directional cell recruitment and extracellular matrix alignment.
