Popis: Designing bioactive materials for repairing or regenerating bone defects is an active area of research and discovery. Despite advances made in sol-gel-derived hybrid biomaterials design, three challenges remain: (i) the choice of biodegradable polymers that can form a homogeneous solution in the presence of water is very limited, (ii) low-temperature (below 50 °C) incorporation of calcium into the inorganic matrix while having molecular-level mixing has proven to be a difficult task, and (iii) incorporation of drug-loaded mesoporous nanoparticles into polymer-bioactive glass hybrid scaffolds has not been achieved. In this study, we developed bioactive biomaterials for bone repair/regeneration from an α-amino acid-derived biodegradable poly(ester amide) (PEA) and a tertiary bioglass (SiO
