After fracture‚ a cascade of signaling biomolecules and cellular changes induces bone healing simultaneously and sequentially. Generally‚ the bone healing process comprises four consecutive steps‚ that is‚ inflammation (reactive phase)‚ fibrocartilage callus formation (reparative phase)‚ bony callus formation (reparative phase)‚ and remodeling phase [31]. In the inflammatory phase‚ damage of vasculature results
