Abstrakt: Biomedical materials are in high demand for transplantation in cases of diseased or damaged bone tissue. Hydrogels are potential candidates for bone defect repair; however, traditional hydrogels lack the necessary strength and multiple functions. Herein, we effectively synthesized a cellulose nanofiber (CNF)-reinforced oxidized alginate (OSA)/gelatin (Gel) semi-interpenetrating network hydrogel through a facile one-step approach without a cross-linker by using the synergistic effects of dynamic imine bonds and hydrogen bonds. The OSA/Gel/CNF sample showed a notable compressive modulus (up to 361.3 KPa). The gelation time (~150 s) ensured excellent injectability. Self-healing exhibited a high efficiency of up to 92 %, which would enable minimally invasive, dynamic adjustments and personalized therapies. Furthermore, the OSA/Gel/CNF hydrogel showed excellent biomineralization (Ca/P ratio ~ 1.69) and enhanced preosteoblast cell (MC3T3-E1) viability (over 96 %), proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation. Thus, this multifunctional hydrogel has promising potential for using in the bone tissue repairs.
