    Abstract:
    Severe bone defects resulting from trauma and diseases remain a persistent clinical challenge. In this study, a hierarchical biomimetic microporous hydrogel composite scaffold was constructed by mimicking the hierarchical structure of bone. Initially, gelatin methacrylamide (GelMA) and methacrylic anhydride silk fibroin (SilMA) were synthesized, and GelMA/SilMA inks with suitable rheological and mechanical properties were prepared. Biomimetic micropores were then generated by using an aqueous two-phase emulsification method. Subsequently, biomimetic microporous GelMA/SilMA was mixed with hydroxyapatite (HAp) to prepare biomimetic microporous GelMA/SilMA/HAp ink. Hierarchical biomimetic microporous GelMA/SilMA/HAp (M-GSH) scaffolds were then fabricated through digital light processing (DLP) 3D printing. Finally, in vitro experiments were conducted to investigate cell adhesion, proliferation, and inward migration as well as osteogenic differentiation and vascular regeneration effects. In vivo experiments indicated that the biomimetic microporous scaffold significantly promoted tissue integration and bone regeneration after 12 weeks of implantation, achieving 42.39% bone volume fraction regeneration. In summary, this hierarchical biomimetic microporous scaffold provides a promising strategy for the repair and treatment of bone defects.
