Implementing BMP‐7 Chemically Modified RNA for Bone Regeneration with 3D Printable Hyaluronic Acid‐Collagen Granular Gels

This study developed 3D-printable THA-Col microgels for delivering BMP-7 cmRNA. The key result is that hMSCs transfected on the biomaterials showed BMP-7 secretion levels comparable to pre-transfecte...
