Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biomaterials for tissue repair are continuously evolving; however, only a select few meet the rigorous demands for clinical application. Hence, there is an urgent need for composite biomaterials with superior properties, encompassing composite composition, spatial structure, porosity, degradation capability, surface morphology, and other crucial physical and chemical attributes at the interface.
A significant challenge hindering the advancement of composite biomaterials lies in the incomplete understanding of the mechanisms governing tissue repair induced by these materials. Recently, proteins, particularly specific effective peptides, have been employed to modify biomaterials, facilitating interactions with tissue cells to enhance the repair process. Nevertheless, the intricate interplay between biomaterials and proteins or other biological molecules remains poorly elucidated. Cutting-edge methodologies and innovative experimental designs are essential to overcome this bottleneck.
This Special Issue aims to showcase recent advancements in composite biomaterials for tissue repair, emphasizing intelligent strategies to regulate cellular behavior and tissue responses. Original research articles and comprehensive reviews will cover a broad spectrum of topics including advancements in biomaterials for tissue repair, optimization of biomaterial properties, inflammation response, regulation of biomaterials in tissue repair processes, and interactions between biomaterials and proteins, peptides, and other biological molecules.
I cordially invite you to contribute manuscripts to this Special Issue. Full papers, communications, and reviews are all encouraged.
Dr. Jing Wang

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
