Abstract

See full text

Apparatuses, systems, and methods for enhancing bone or soft tissue regeneration are provided. For example, a conduit, having one or more segments, can originate at a tissue regeneration site and can have a first opening to promote physiological signals to enter the conduit and transit to a second opening that penetrates a histologically rich source of multipotent mesenchymal cells, promoting the multipotent mesenchymal cells to produce tissue regeneration response products, the response products transiting through the second opening to egress at the first opening of the conduit, and promoting tissue regeneration at the tissue regeneration site. Transit of the physiological signals and the tissue regeneration response products is promoted through physical and/or chemical means, as is promotion of the anatomical functionality of the regenerated tissue. For example, a number of the segments of the conduit can be formed at least partially from an osteoceramic material.
