Abstract

P. X. Ma and colleagues report the novel functional nanofibrous hollow microspheres (FNF-HMS) for tissue regeneration on page 350. Peptide decorated FNF-HMS are shown to directly guide stem cells to form cartilage and bone, respectively, circumventing the use of the expensive and unstable growth factors. FNF-HMS can therefore serve as an advanced injectable carrier platform for various therapeutic applications.
