Biomaterials are those materials that are designed to mimic or replace biological materials. The interactions between engineered biomaterials and biological systems is a rapidly growing, interdisciplinary frontier in materials science and engineering with endless applications. The interactions can be physical, mechanical, biological, or biochemical. In these processes, the important issues include, but are not limited to, biointerfaces, mechanobiology, biocompatibility, tissue compatibility, inflammatory responses, biodegradation, toxicity, tissue regeneration, protein–materials interactions, and cell–material interactions. This special topic presents a collection of reviews and original research papers related to the interactions between various biomaterials and biological tissues, cells, and molecules. The engineered biomaterials include metals, polymers, bioceramics, and their composites. The interactions with bone, ligament, fibroblasts, mesenchymal stem cells, and microbial cells are studied. The results shed light on biology, medicine, bioengineering, the food industry, and biomanufacturing, especially in artificial meat. In the repair of injured ligaments and tendons, the fixation of grafts is crucial, because enthesis between graft and bone is essential for musculoskeletal motion. In an original research paper, Dean et al. used inkjet-printing to create a graded pattern of nanoparticulate hydroxyapatite on the surface of highly-aligned and chemically modified poly (lactic acid)(PLA) nanofiber scaffolds. Following immobilization of fibrin, they then demonstrated the proliferation and differentiation response of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) in vitro on the surface of the samples. In another original research paper, Bose and her team studied the effects of allicin, a molecule from garlic, on bone health by the fabrication of a novel allicin-loaded hydroxyapatite drug delivery system. The antibacterial efficiency against S. aureus, the allicin release kinetics, and the cytocompatibility with osteoblasts were investigated. The results indicated potential applications for the allicinloaded scaffolds to be a localized delivery vehicle for bone tissue engineering. Li et al. presented the results of experimental characterization of the biomechanical performance of two implant constructs for the realignment and arthrodesis of the first tarsometatarsal to address hallux valgus, a forefoot deformity. In their cadaver model, both constructs maintained compression and residual stability of the first tarsometatarsal joint gap. They provided statistically superior performance during loading compared to nitinol staples. Implant-associated infection and antibiotic resistance is a challenge in biomedical materials’ success in vivo. In an original research study, Roy et al. emphasized the need for exploring nanotopographies with good bactericidal efficiency. The crystallographic texture by dry etching of titanium showed bactericidal effect on both Gram-positive and Gramnegative bacteria.
