Bone tissue engineering aims to develop bone graft structure that can heal bone defects without using autografts or allografts. The current study was conducted to promote bone regeneration using a collagen type I hydrogel containing tacrolimus. For this purpose, different amounts of tacrolimus (10 mu g/ml, 100 mu g/ml, and 1000 mu g/ml) were loaded into the hydrogel. The resulting drug-loaded hydrogels were characterized for their porosity, swelling capacity, weight loss, drug release, blood compatibility, and cell proliferation (MTT). For functional analysis, the developed hydrogel surrounded by a film made of gelatin and polycaprolactone (PCL) was administrated in the calvarias defect of Wistar rats. The results indicated that the hydrogel has a porosity of 89.2 +/- 12.5% and an appropriate swelling, drug release, and blood compatibility behavior. The in vitro results indicated that the collagen hydrogel containing 1000 mu g tacrolimus was adequate in terms of cell proliferation. Finally, in vivo studies provided some evidence of the potential of the developed hydrogel for bone healing.
