Cover Story: Biomaterials have been developed to maximize bone regeneration in fractures with tissue loss. Hydroxyapatite, chitosan, and carbon nanotubes have been used to prepare scaffolds because of their proper chemical structure, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. The scaffolds must be subjected to in vivo evaluations in laboratory animals before being used in the species of interest. The implantation of biomaterials in the subcutaneous tissue to evaluate biocompatibility and defects in rat calvaria for determining osteoconduction have been widely used for studies in bone bioengineering. This study aimed to evaluate the biological interaction of carbon nanotube, chitosan, and hydroxyapatite nanocomposite (CNCHN) with or without bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) through histological evaluations at different times after implantation, comparing them to the control.
