Cell membranes from different sources retain the integrity of the original membrane structure and special membrane protein functions. However, the diversity function of membrane surface proteins underutilized in bone defect repair. The current study creatively prepared a hybrid membrane (HM) (diameter, 92.25 ± 16.47 nm) and coated it on a poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) (diameter, 313.79 ± 4.69 nm) electrospinning membrane for cell membrane-functionalized matrixes (MFMs) (diameter, 368.76 ± 5.90 nm) preparation. The effects of the HM and MFMs on inflammatory regulation and bone formation were further explored in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that MFMs could regulate macrophage into anti-inflammatory phenotype and promote alkaline phosphatase secretion and mineralization deposition of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in vitro. The foreign body response was alleviated and bone regeneration was facilitated in rat calvarial critical-size defect in vivo. The study provides an innovative approach to applicate the cell membrane functions from different sources for immunomodulatory and osteogenic differentiation and provides a promising choice for designing bone repair materials.
