Zinc borate is a bioactive inorganic substance with properties including osteogenic induction, pro-angiogenesis, antioxidation, antimutagenesis and cytotoxicity. In the field of bone tissue engineering, Zinc borate is often incorporated into chitosan scaffolds. By releasing zinc ions and borate ions, Zinc borate induces the differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells into osteoblasts, upregulates the expression of bone-related genes and promotes calcium deposition. Zinc borate also promotes angiogenesis by upregulating key factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor. Zinc borate exhibits antioxidant capacity to scavenge free radicals, and can specifically reduce mutagenicity under specific conditions. Zinc borate reduces the survival rate of mouse fibroblasts, but it can still be used in studies related to bone tissue engineering[1][2].
