Here, we propose a senescent metabolism-reprogramming therapeutic strategy by developing a hierarchical bioceramic scaffold, comprising an outer 3D-printed β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) hollow tube and an inner freeze-casting MnTCP ceramic rod with the loading of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN).
During aged bone repair, the scaffold enables sustained release of both NMN and manganese (Mn) ions, targeting two core problems of the senescent bone microenvironment: NAD+ metabolic imbalance and accumulated oxidative stress.
In this study, NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide).
