Sumario: | Millions of people worldwide suffer from intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), which imposes a significant socioeconomic burden on society. There is an urgent clinical demand for more effective treatments for IVDD because conventional treatments can only alleviate the symptoms rather than preventing the progression of IVDD. Hydrogels, a class of elastic biomaterials with good biocompatibility, are promising candidates for intervertebral disc repair and regeneration. In recent years, various hydrogels have been investigated in vitro and in vivo for the repair of intervertebral discs, some of which are ready for clinical testing. This review summarizes the latest findings and developments in using bioactive factors-released bioactive injectable hydrogels for the repair and regeneration of intervertebral discs. It focuses on the analysis and summary of the use of multifunctional injectable hydrogels to delivery bioactive factors (cells, exosomes, growth factors, genes, drugs) for disc regeneration, providing guidance for future study. Finally, we discussed and analyzed the optimal timing for the application of controlled-release hydrogels in the treatment of IVDD to meet the high standards required for intervertebral disc regeneration and precision medicine. |
