Our data indicates an altered bone remodelling rate in the Type 2 diabetes mellitus group, which may, at least partially, explain the reduced bone strength and increased incidence of non-traumatic fractures in diabetic patients

On the basis of the aforementioned observations, these hydrogels are very attractive for bone tissue engineering.
