Abstract
Magnetic bioactive glass ceramic (MG) in the system CaO-SiO(2)-P(2)O(5)-MgO-CaF(2)-MnO(2)-Fe(2)O(3) for hyperthermia treatment of bone tumor was synthesized. The phase composition was investigated by XRD. The magnetic property was measured by VSM. The in vitro bioactivity was investigated by simulated body fluid (SBF) soaking experiment. Cell growth on the surface of the material was evaluated by co-culturing osteoblast-like ROS17/2.8 cells with materials for 7 days. The results showed that MG contained CaSiO(3) and Ca(5)(PO(4))(3)F as the main phases, and MnFe(2)O(4) and Fe(3)O(4) as the magnetic phases. Under a magnetic field of 10,000 Oe, the saturation magnetization and coercive force of MG were 6.4 emu/g and 198 Oe, respectively. After soaking in SBF for 14 days, hydroxyapatite containing CO(3)(2-) was observed on the surface of MG. The experiment of co-culturing cells with material showed that cells could successfully attach and well proliferate on MG.

Abstract
Composite films of bioactive mesoporous calcium silicate (MCS)/silk fibroin (SF) and conventional calcium silicate (CS)/SF were fabricated by the solvent casting method, and the structures and properties of the composite films were characterized. Results of field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) indicated that MCS or CS was uniformly dispersed in the SF films. The measurements of the water contact angles suggested that the incorporation of either MCS or CS into SF could improve the hydrophilicity of the composite films, and the former was more effective than the later. The bioactivity of the composite films was evaluated by soaking in a simulated body fluid (SBF), and the formation of a hydroxycarbonate apatite (HCA) layer was determined by XRD and FT-IR. The results showed that the MCS/SF composite films have significantly enhanced apatite-forming bioactivity compared with the CS/SF composite films owing to the highly specific surface area and pore volume of MCS. In vitro cell attachment and proliferation tests showed that the MCS/SF composite film was a good matrix for the growth of MG63 cells. Consequently, the MCS/SF composite film possessed excellent physicochemical and biological properties, indicating its potential application for bone tissue engineering by designing 3D scaffolds according to its corresponding composition.

Abstract
Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) has been used to deposit hydroxyapatite (HA) ceramic over titanium substrate with an interlayer of titania. PLD has been identified as a potential candidate for bioceramic coatings over metallic substrates to be used as orthopedic and dental implants because of better process control and preservation of phase identity of the coating component. However, direct deposition of hydroxyapatite on titanium at elevated temperature results in the formation of natural oxide layer along with some perovskites like calcium titanate at the interface. This leads to easy debonding of ceramic layer from the metal and thereby affecting the adhesion strength. In the present study, adherent and stable HA coating over Ti6Al4V was achieved with the help of an interlayer of titania. The interlayer was made to a submicron level and HA was deposited consecutively to a thickness of around one micron by exposing to laser ablation at a substrate temperature of 400°C. The deposited phase was identified to be phase pure HA by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, and inductively coupled plasma spectrometry. The mechanical behavior of coating evaluated by scratch test indicates that the adhesion strength of HA coating was improved with the presence of titania interlayer.

Abstract
In the present study, we fabricated magnesium doped apatite cement (md-AC) with rapid self-setting characteristic by adding the mixed powders of magnesium oxide and calcium dihydrogen phosphate (MO-CDP) into hydroxyapatite cement (HAC). The results revealed that the md-AC with 50 wt% MO-CDP could set within 6 min and the compression strength could reach 51 MPa after setting for 1 h, indicating that the md-AC had highly initial mechanical strength. The degradability of the md-AC in Tris-HCl solution increased with the increase of MO-CDP amount, and the weight loss ratio of md-AC with 50 wt% MO-CDP was 57.5 wt% after soaked for 12 weeks. Newly flake-like apatite could be deposited on the md-AC surfaces after soaked in simulated body fluid (SBF) for 7 days. Cell proliferation ratio of MG(63) cells on md-AC was obviously higher than that of HAC on days 4 and 7. The cells with normal phenotype spread well on the md-AC surfaces and attached intimately with the substrate, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity of the cells on md-AC significantly improved compared with HAC on day 7. The results demonstrate that the md-AC has a good ability to support cell proliferation and differentiation, and indicate a good cytocompatibility.

Enhancing the antibacterial activity of biomimetic HA coatings by incorporation of norvancomycin. J Orthop Sci 2011; 16:105-13.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bacterial infections associated with the use of biomaterials remain a great challenge for orthopedic surgery. The main purpose of the work discussed in this paper was to improve the antibacterial activity of a biomimetic calcium phosphate (CP) coating widely used in orthopedic biomaterials by incorporation of norvancomycin in the biomimetic process. METHODS CP coating and CP coating containing norvancomycin were produced on a titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) surface by a biomimetic process. The morphology, surface crystal structure, and concentrations of elements in the coatings were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), respectively. The amount of norvancomycin and its release were investigated by UV-visible spectroscopy. MTT was used to investigate cell behavior. The morphology of adhered bacteria was observed by SEM. Antibacterial activity was expressed as inhibition zone by using Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923) as model bacteria. RESULTS Results from SEM, EDX, and XRD revealed formation of a hydroxyapatite (HA) coating. The amount of antibiotic in the CP coating increased with increasing concentration of norvancomycin in the coating solution, followed by a plateau when the concentration of norvancomycin in the coating solution reached 600 mg/l. Approximately 2.16 μg norvancomycin per mg coating was co-precipitated with the CP layer onto titanium alloy discs when 600 mg/l norvancomycin coating solution was applied. The norvancomycin had a fast release profile followed by slow release. The MTT test of osteoblast cell cultures suggested that coatings containing norvancomycin did not cause any cytotoxicity compared with the CP coating and control titanium plate. The antibacterial activity test showed that the norvancomycin released from the coatings inhibited the growth of Staphylococcus aureus; more bacteria were found on the CP coating than on the norvancomycin-loaded coating. CONCLUSIONS A norvancomycin-loaded HA-like coating was successfully obtained on titanium surfaces. The norvancomycin incorporated had no negative effects on osteoblast cell behavior. The released norvancomycin results in excellent antibacterial activity of Ca-P coatings. Therefore, incorporation of norvancomycin can enhance antibacterial activity and the norvancomycin-loaded CP coating can be used to inhibit post-surgical infections in orthopaedics.

Association of collagen with calcium phosphate promoted osteogenic responses of osteoblast-like MG63 cells. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2010; 83:245-53.

Abstract
In this investigation, the effects of the association of the collagen (COLL) molecules with the calcium phosphate (CaP) film were examined with respect to both the physicochemical properties of the CaP films and the osteoblast responses, such as the adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization. The COLL pre-adsorbed CaP film (CaPA) exhibited significant changes in the surface morphology compared to the COLL incorporated CaP film (CaPC). The adhesions of the osteoblast-like MG63 cells were similar on the CaPC or CaPA films. However, the proliferation of the MG63 cells on CaPC was comparable to CaP but considerably different than CaPA. The differentiation of the MG63 cells was greatly improved on CaPC and CaPA compared to CaP and more pronounced on CaPA. The presence of COLL within or on the CaP films significantly modulated the expression of the phenotypic genes, including osteopontin (OPN), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). The expression patterns of these genes elucidated that COLL that was present within or on the CaP film supported the osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. These positive effects were stronger for CaPA than CaPC. The bone-like nodules formed on all of the specimens. However, the mineralization of CaPC and CaPA was significantly higher than CaP, indicating that the association of CaP with COLL promoted the mineral deposition. Therefore, the association of the COLL molecules with the CaP film induced positive effects on the biomineralization. Overall, the incorporation of COLL efficiently enhanced the osteoblast responses of CaP. This system can be utilized in a drug delivery system using calcium phosphate. Although the incorporation effects were slightly higher for the osteoblast responses of CaPA than CaPC, CaPC can be used when the longer drug release times are desirable.

Abstract
Al(2) O(3) substrates with controlled porosity were manufactured from nanosized powders obtained by plasma processing. It was observed that when increasing the sintering temperature the overall porosity was decreasing, but the pores got larger. In a second step, Ce stabilized ZrO(2) doped hydroxyapatite coatings were pulsed laser deposited onto the Al(2) O(3) substrates. It was shown that the surface morphology, consisting of aggregates and particulates in micrometric range, was altered by the substrate porosity and interface properties, respectively. TEM studies evidenced that Ce stabilized ZrO(2) doped HA particulates ranged from 10 to 50 nm, strongly depending on the Al(2) O(3) porosity. The coatings consisted of HA nanocrystals embedded in an amorphous matrix quite similar to the bone structure. These findings were congruent with the increased biocompatibility and bioactivity of these layers confirmed by enhanced growing and proliferation of human mesenchymal stem cells.

Abstract
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP), which is structurally similar to hydroxyapatite (HA), is a possible precursor of bone apatite crystals. Although disagreement remains as to whether OCP comprises the initial mineral crystals in the early stage of bone mineralization, the results of recent biomaterial studies using synthetic OCP indicate the potential role of OCP as a bone substitute material, owing to its highly osteoconductive and biodegradable characteristics. OCP tends to convert to HA not only in an in vitro environment, but also as an implant in bone defects. Several lines of evidence from both in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that the conversion process could be involved in the stimulatory capacity of OCP for osteoblastic differentiation and osteoclast formation. However, the osteoconductivity of OCP cannot always be secured if an OCP with distinct crystal characteristics is used, because the stoichiometry and microstructure of OCP crystals greatly affect bone-regenerative properties. Osteoconductivity and stimulatory capabilities may be caused by the chemical characteristics of OCP, which allows the release or exchange of calcium and phosphate ions with the surrounding of this salt, and its tendency to grow towards specific crystal faces, which could be a variable of the synthesis condition. This paper reviews the effect of calcium phosphates on osteoblastic activity and bone regeneration, with a special emphasis on OCP, since OCP seems to be performing better than other calcium phosphates in vivo.

Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate whether the formation of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) is accelerated on titanium (Ti) surface by an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma oxidation at various pressures and temperatures. X-ray diffraction (XRD) of Ti-oxidized substrates showed that the rutile TiO(2) phase on its surfaces appeared at 300 degrees C and was crystallized when the oxidation temperature increased up to 600 degrees C. The thickness of TiO(2) film on the substrates increased progressively as the temperature increased. The oxidized Ti surfaces were soaked in calcium and phosphate solutions supersaturated with respect to both hydroxyapatite (HA) and OCP but slightly supersaturated with dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD). OCP crystals with a blade-like morphology were deposited as the primary crystalline phase on Ti substrates, while DCPD was included as a minor constituent. The amount of OCP deposition was maximized under 0.015 Pa in 300 degrees C. On the other hand, the oxidation temperature did not show a significant effect on the deposit in the range examined. The phase conversion from OCP to HA, determined by XRD, was demonstrated to occur even at 1 day and to advance until 7 days by immersing the Ti substrate with the deposit in simulated body fluid at 37 degrees C. The present results suggest that ECR plasma oxidation could be used to improve a Ti surface regarding its bioactivity due to the enhancement of osteoconductive OCP deposition.

Abstract
A new deposition method is presented, based on electrospraying, that can build bioceramic structures with desirable surface properties. This technology allows nanoapatite crystals, including hydroxyapatite (nHA), carbonate-substituted HA (nCHA) and silicon-substituted HA (nSiHA), to be electrosprayed on glass substrates. Human osteoblast cells cultured on nSiHA showed enhanced cell attachment, proliferation and protein expression, namely alkaline phosphatase, type 1 collagen and osteocalcin, as compared to nHA and nCHA. The modification of nanoapatite by the addition of silicon into the HA lattice structure renders the electrosprayed surface more hydrophilic and electronegatively charged.

Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate whether the amount of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) affects the characteristics of alginate (Alg)/OCP scaffolds regarding the pore formation and its distribution, and the thermodynamic stability from OCP to hydroxyapatite (HA) in an in vitro physiological environment. Alg/OCP composites with weight ratios of 100/0, 75/25, 50/50, and 25/75 were prepared through mixing the ground synthesized OCP crystals with an Alg solution and applying lyophilization. Analysis of X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and mercury intrusion porosimetry verified that the crystalline phase of OCP and the porosities were retained regardless of the OCP amount. On the other hand, the elastic modulus, determined by mechanical testing, and, interestingly, the pore size increased with increasing the OCP amount. The immersion of the composites in a simulated body fluid up to 14 days revealed that OCP in Alg matrices tends to convert to HA with enhancing the calcium consumption depending on the OCP amount. The results indicated that the inclusion of OCP crystals in the Alg matrix by the mixing process controls the character of the pore distribution in Alg/OCP composites while maintaining the transitory nature of OCP.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a bioactive ceramic material that mimics the mineral composition of natural bone. This material does not possess acceptable mechanical properties for use as a bulk biomaterial; however, it does demonstrate significant potential for use as a coating on metallic orthopaedic and dental prostheses. Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) of thin films of HA on TiAl6V4 have shown crystalline coatings to be obtained at temperatures of the order of 350-500 degrees C. This condition of high substrate temperature promoted the oxidation of the substrate surface prior to the growth of the HA layer and the oxidation layer degraded the adhesion of the coating to the substrate. In this study, thin films of HA were deposited on TiAl6V4 alloy at a lower temperature of 200 degrees C by PLD and crystallized by a hydrothermal treatment at 100 degrees C. The film was subjected to mechanical as well as cell viability tests in vitro. The thickness, roughness, crystallanity, composition ratio, adhesive strength, and cell adhesion of the film suggest the application of this technique for producing bioactive implants.

Abstract
Synthetic octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been shown to enhance bone formation and to biodegrade if implanted into bone defects. Here, we hypothesized that an OCP-atelocollagen complex (OCP/Col) is biodegradable and can induce bone formation in a thickness-dependent manner when implanted into the calvaria. OCP/Col disks (diameter, 9 mm; thickness, 1 or 3 mm) were implanted into a subperiosteal pocket in the calvaria of 12-week-old Wistar rats for 4, 8, and 12 weeks and subsequent bone formation was monitored. X-ray diffraction analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that OCP in the OCP/Col implants was converted into a carbonate-rich apatite after 4 weeks. Although thinner disks tended to be replaced by new bone, thicker disks were progressively resorbed by osteoclast-like cells until 12 weeks, possibly via the increased mechanical load in the subperiosteal pocket. Therefore, OCP/Col can increase appositional intra-membranous bone formation if the appropriate size of the implant is applied.

Abstract
The first aim of the present study was to investigate the capacity of a cyclo-DfKRG-coated hydroxyapatite-titanium alloy (Ti-HA-RGD) to activate in vitro human osteoprogenitor cells adhesion and differentiation. The second purpose was to examine in vivo the role of a autologous cell seeding on cyclo-DfKRG-functionalized materials to provide bone repair after implantation in femoral condyle of rabbits. Our in vitro results have demonstrated that both titanium alloy functionalized with hydroxyapatite (Ti-HA-RGD and Ti-HA) contributed to higher cell adhesion than titanium alloy alone respectively 85 and 55% vs 15% compared to tissue culture polystyrene after one hour of cell seeding. As for differentiation, after 3 days of culture, Ti-HA presented the highest increase of ALP mRNA of all surfaces studied. Ti-HA-RGD showed an intermediate value about half as high as Ti-HA. Moreover after 3 days, both Ti-HA and Ti-HA-RGD surfaces showed the highest increase of cbfa1 mRNA expression. Two weeks following implantation, in vivo findings revealed that percentage of lacunae contact observed with pre-cellularized Ti-HA-RGD samples remains significantly lower than with Ti-HA group (10.5+/-9.6 % vs 33.7+/-11.5 %, P<0.03). Meanwhile, RGD peptide coating had no significant additional effect on the bone implant contact and area. Moreover, histomorphometry analysis revealed that implantation of pre-cellularized RGD coated materials with ROP cells increased significantly peri-implant fibrous area (24+/-11.6% vs 3+/-1.7% for Ti-HA-RGD, P<0.02). RGD coatings demonstrated osteoblastic adhesion, differentiation and in vivo bone regeneration at most equivalent to HA coatings.

Abstract
Surface-textured calcium phosphate coatings at four different length scales were synthesized on titanium-based alloys using a pulsed Nd:YAG laser system by a direct melting technique. The textures were obtained by varying the laser spot overlap with a change in laser traverse speed. Surface roughness measurements of the textured coatings carried out using a white light interferometer indicated a decrease in roughness with increasing laser scan speed. Wettability of the coated samples measured using a static sessile drop technique demonstrated an increased hydrophilicity with increasing laser scan speed. The influence of such textures and the associated surface roughness on the precipitation kinetics of hydroxyapatite (HA) during immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF) was the prime focus of the present paper. The mineralized samples obtained after immersion in SBF were characterized using X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy to understand the kinetics of HA precipitation. The results thereafter confirmed that the precipitation kinetics of HA was strongly modulated by the varying surface roughness.

Abstract
We applied Matrix Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) in order to synthesize alendronate-hydroxyapatite thin films on titanium substrates. Alendronate-hydroxyapatite composite nanocrystals with increasing bisphosphonate content (0, 3.9, 7.1%wt) were synthesized in aqueous medium. Then, they were suspended in deionised water, frozen at liquid nitrogen temperature and used as targets for MAPLE experiments. The depositions were conducted with a KrF* excimer laser source (l=248nm, t(FWHM)=25ns) in mild conditions of temperature and pressure. The obtained thin films had a good crystallinity, which slightly decreases with the increase of alendronate content, and exhibited a porous-like structure. Osteoblast-like MG63 cells and human osteoclasts were cultured on the thin films up to 14 days. In the presence of alendronate, MG63 cells displayed a normal morphology, increased proliferation and higher values of differentiation parameters, namely type I collagen, osteocalcin, and osteoprotegerin/TNF-related activation-induced cytokine receptor ratio. In contrast, osteoclasts showed significantly reduced proliferation, and increased level of Caspase 3. Moreover, the coatings synthesized from hydroxyapatite at relatively high bisphosphonate content (7.1% wt) displayed a reduced production of Tumour Necrosis Factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and Interleukin 6 (IL-6), suggesting a down-regulatory role of alendronate on the inflammatory reaction. The successful deposition of alendronate modified hydroxyapatite thin films yields coatings with enhanced bioactivity, able to promote osteoblast differentiation and to inhibit osteoclast proliferation.

Abstract
Carbonated hydroxyapatite (CHA)-coated titanium can find wide applications as bone substitute implant in bone and dental surgery and orthopedics, promoting osseointegration with a host bone and ensuring biocompatibility and bioactivity. In this work, carbonated hydroxyapatite films were prepared on titanium substrates by pulsed laser deposition at different substrate temperatures ranging from 30 to 750 degrees C. The properties of films were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Vickers microhardness measurements of the composite film-substrate systems were performed, and the intrinsic hardness of films was separated from the composite hardness using a "law-of-mixtures" approach and taking into account the indentation size effect. The prepared CHA films are nearly stoichiometric with a Ca/P atomic ratio of 2.0-2.2. The films deposited in the 30-500 degrees C temperature range are about 9 microm thick, amorphous, having an average roughness of 60 nm. At higher temperature, 700-750 degrees C, the films are about 4 microm thick, show a finer surface morphology and an average roughness of 20 nm. At 750 degrees C the films are amorphous, whereas at 700 degrees C they are crystalline and textured along the (202) and (212) directions. The intrinsic hardness of the films increased with an increase in substrate temperature, being as low as 5 GPa at 30 degrees C and reaching a high value of 28 GPa at 700 degrees C. The rich information gained by the joint use of the mentioned techniques allowed a comprehensive characterization of this system.

Abstract
Previous studies showed that synthetic octacalcium phosphate (OCP) enhances bone formation coupled with its own osteoclastic biodegradation more than non-biodegradable hydroxyapatite (HA), including sintered HA ceramic, when implanted in animal bone defects. The present study was designed to investigate whether synthetic OCP in granule form has biodegradable characteristics when implanted in the subperiosteal area of mouse calvaria in comparison with non-sintered stoichiometric HA, especially in relatively short periods after implantation. OCP crystals exhibited plate-like morphology, whereas HA crystals had a sphere-like structure. Both crystals had large pore volumes >75% in total, with micropores within the granules. Direct bonding of newly formed bone was discernible in HA until 35 days after implantation by element analysis for calcium and phosphorus. However, histomorphometric analysis demonstrated that bone formation was facilitated on OCP surfaces with greater alkaline phosphatase activity than on HA up to 21 days. The surfaces attacked by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase positive osteoclast-like cells were significantly greater than those of HA. OCP became encapsulated and replaced with new bone with prolonged implantation periods up to 180 days. The results suggest that the enhanced bone formation in mouse calvaria could be associated with the biodegradable nature of OCP, and that OCP could be used in augmenting intramembranous bone volume.

Abstract
The aim of this study consisted on investigating the influence of silicon substituted hydroxyapatite (Si-HA) coatings over the human osteoblast-like cell line (SaOS-2) behaviour. Diatomaceous earth and silica, together with commercial hydroxyapatite were respectively the silicon and HA sources used to produce the Si-HA coatings. HA coatings with 0 wt% of silicon were used as control of the experiment. Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) was the selected technique to deposit the coatings. The Si-HA thin films were characterized by Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) demonstrating the efficient transfer of Si to the HA structure. The in vitro cell culture was established to assess the cell attachment, proliferation and osteoblastic activity respectively by, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), DNA and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) quantification. The SEM analysis demonstrated a similar adhesion behaviour of the cells on the tested materials and the maintenance of the typical osteoblastic morphology along the time of culture. The Si-HA coatings did not evidence any type of cytotoxic behaviour when compared with HA coatings. Moreover, both the proliferation rate and osteoblastic activity results showed a slightly better performance on the Si-HA coatings from diatoms than on the Si-HA from silica.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that synthetic octacalcium phosphate (OCP) facilitates in vitro osteoblastic cell differentiation in an OCP dose-dependent manner and that a complex of OCP and collagen (OCP/collagen) enhances critical-sized rat calvaria defects more than OCP alone. The present study was designed to investigate whether the bone regenerative properties of OCP/collagen are augmented in an OCP dose-dependent manner, thereby establishing a suitable composition of this composite as a bone substitute material. OCP/collagens with a wide range of mixing ratios from 23:77 to 83:17, including the previously examined composition (77:23), were prepared by blending granules of OCP with atelocollagen and molded into a disk as an implant. A critical-sized defect was made in rat calvaria, and each disk was implanted into the defect for 4 or 12 weeks and then examined radiographically, histologically, and histomorphometrically. Mouse bone marrow-derived stromal ST-2 cells were cultured in dishes pre-coated with OCP/collagen or OCP alone with different OCP contents to determine the capacity of cell attachment and proliferation up to 14 days. Histological and radiographic examinations showed that newly formed bone was observed in relation to OCP granules within the collagen matrix. Histomorphometric analysis confirmed that increasing the amount of OCP in collagen matrices resulted in progressive enhancement of bone regeneration and that the ratio 83:17 generated the maximum repair level of approximately 64% of the defect at 12 weeks. OCP/collagen promoted the proliferation and attachment of ST-2 cells more than OCP alone regardless of OCP content. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis of the coatings after the incubation indicated that OCP tended to convert to apatite regardless of the presence of collagen. The present study demonstrated that the osteoconductive characteristics of OCP/collagen can be displayed in an OCP dose-dependent manner. The results suggest that collagen promotes the proliferation and attachment of host osteoblastic cells on OCP/collagen composite implants.

Abstract
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been advocated to be a precursor of biological apatite crystals in bones and teeth. Our previous studies showed that synthetic OCP stimulates bone regeneration, followed by the progressive conversion of OCP into hydroxyapatite (HA), when implanted in bone defects. However, the precise mechanism to induce the osteogenic phenotype in osteoblasts by OCP has not been identified. The present study was designed to investigate whether the physicochemical aspect, specific to and derived from the structural properties of OCP, influences the function of an osteoblastic cell line, mouse bone marrow stromal ST-2 cells. Different amounts of synthetic OCP and synthetic sintered ceramic HA were coated onto 48-well tissue culture plates. The amounts of OCP and HA were controlled to strengthen their intrinsic physicochemical properties, in which the milieu around the crystals will be modified during the culture. The roughness of the OCP coatings was independent of the amount of coating. Chemical analyses of the supernatants of the OCP coatings revealed that the concentration of Ca2+ decreased with increasing amounts of OCP, while the concentration of inorganic phosphate increased markedly, most probably through OCP--apatite conversion. ST-2 cells were cultured on the OCP or HA coatings up to day 21. The OCP coating caused a significant decrease in cell attachment and in the initial stage of proliferation, dependent upon the amount of coating. On the other hand, OCP enhanced the expression of osteogenic markers, including type I collagen, alkaline phosphatase, and osterix. However, HA did not alter the expression of these markers in ST-2 cells cultured on different amounts of HA coating. These results demonstrated that OCP is capable of inducing the differentiation of stromal cells into osteoblastic cells, especially differentiation into early stage osteoblastic cells, prior to reaching the stage of mature osteoblastic cell lineage.

Abstract
Natural bone consists of hard nanostructured hydroxyapatite (HA) in a nanostructured protein-based soft hydrogel template (ie, mostly collagen). For this reason, nanostructured HA has been an intriguing coating material on traditionally used titanium for improving orthopedic applications. In addition, helical rosette nanotubes (HRNs), newly developed materials which form through the self-assembly process of DNA base pair building blocks in body solutions, are soft nanotubes with a helical architecture that mimics natural collagen. Thus, the objective of this in vitro study was for the first time to combine the promising attributes of HRNs and nanocrystalline HA on titanium and assess osteoblast (bone-forming cell) functions. Different sizes of nanocrystalline HA were synthesized in this study through a wet chemical precipitation process following either hydrothermal treatment or sintering. Transmission electron microscopy images showed that HRNs aligned with nanocrystalline HA, which indicates a high affinity between both components. Some of the nanocrystalline HA formed dense coatings with HRNs on titanium. More importantly, results demonstrated enhanced osteoblast adhesion on the HRN/nanocrystalline HA-coated titanium compared with conventional uncoated titanium. Among all the HRN/nanocrystalline HA coatings tested, osteoblast adhesion was the greatest when HA nanometer particle size was the smallest. In this manner, this study demonstrated for the first time that biomimetic HRN/nanocrystalline HA coatings on titanium were cytocompatible for osteoblasts and, thus, should be further studied for improving orthopedic implants.

Abstract
A well-defined mesoporous structure of wollastonite with high specific surface area was synthesized using surfactant P123 (triblock copolymer) as template, and its composite scaffolds with poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) were fabricated by a simple method of solvent casting-particulate leaching. The measurements of the water contact angles suggest that the incorporation of either mesoporous wollastonite (m-WS) or conventional wollastonite (c-WS) into PCL could improve the hydrophilicity of the composites, and the former was more effective than the later. The bioactivity of the composite scaffold was evaluated by soaking the scaffolds in a simulated body fluid (SBF) and the results show that the m-WS/PCL composite (m-WPC) scaffolds can induce a dense and continuous layer of apatite after soaking for 1 week, as compared with the scattered and discrete apatite particles on the c-WS/PCL composite (c-WPC) scaffolds. The m-WPC had a significantly enhanced apatite-forming bioactivity compared with the c-WPC owing to the high specific surface area and pore volume of m-WS. In addition, attachment and proliferation of MG(63) cells on m-WPC scaffolds were significantly higher than that of c-WPC, revealing that m-WPC scaffolds had excellent biocompatibility. Such improved properties of m-WPC should be helpful for developing new biomaterials and may have potential use in hard tissue repair.

Abstract
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that the proliferation of a human osteoblast cell line (HOS cells) stimulated with hydroxyapatite (HA) may be regulated by nitric oxide (NO). The cells were cultured on the surface of HA. Medium or cells alone were used as controls. L-arginine, D-arginine, 7-NI (an nNOS inhibitor), L-NIL (an iNOS inhibitor), L-NIO (an eNOS inhibitor) or carboxy PTIO, a NO scavenger, was added in the HA-exposed cell cultures. The cells were also precoated with anti-human integrin αV antibody. The levels of nitrite were determined spectrophotometrically. Cell proliferation was assessed by colorimetric assay. The results showed increased nitrite production and cell proliferation by HA-stimulated HOS cells up to day 3 of cultures. Anti-integrin αV antibody, L-NIO, or carboxy PTIO suppressed, but L-arginine enhanced, nitrite production and cell proliferation of HA-stimulated HOS cells. The results of the present study suggest, therefore, that interaction between HA and HOS cell surface integrin αV molecule may activate eNOS to catalyze NO production which, in turn, may regulate the cell proliferation in an autocrine fashion.

Abstract
In this article, two original studies of the alumina as porous substrate and PLD (pulsed laser deposition) thin films in view of its biomedical and tribological applications are presented. The first biomedical study aimed to evaluate the role of Al2O3 on thin deposited nanostructures. For this purpose, cerium stabilized zirconia doped hydroxyapatite thin films were deposited by PLD onto high purity, high density alumina substrates with different low porosities. For deposition, an UV KrF* (λ=248 nm, τ ~ 25 ns) excimer laser was used for the multi-pulse irradiation of the targets. The nanostructured surface morphologies of the thin films with micro droplets were evidenced by atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy and the compositions with a Ca/P ratio of 1.7 by energy dispersive spectroscopy. The films were seeded with mesenchymal stem cells for in vitro tests. The cells showed good attachment and spread and covered uniformly the surface of the samples. Different functions of substrate porosities are observed in the efficiency of developing long filopodia and of obtaining the optimal intracellular organization. The second study aimed to understand the influence of micro-structural and mechanical characteristics on the tribological behaviour of stainless steel samples with PLD alumina coatings produced using an UV KrF* (λ=248 nm, τ ~ 20 ns) excimer laser and a sintered alumina target. Various microscopic observation techniques were used in order to connect the tribological response to the amorphous microstructure of the coatings. The results correspond to the determination of the mechanical characteristics by nanoindentation tests, scratch tests, and a tribological behaviour analysis of the treated steel against 100Cr6. The films were stoichiometric, partially crystallized with an amorphous matrix and their surfaces had few particulates deposited on. The obtained values of hardness and elastic modulus of the films were in good agreements with literature data.

Abstract
This work consists on the evaluation of the in vitro performance of Ti6Al4V samples PLD (pulsed laser deposition) coated with hydroxyapatite, both pure and mixed with a CaO-P2O5 glass. Previous studies on immersion of PLD coatings in SBF, showed that the immersion apatite films did not present the usual cauliflower morphology but replicated the original columnar structure and exhibited good bioactivity. However, the influence of glass associated to hydroxyapatite concerning adhesion, proliferation and morphology of MG63 cells on the films surface was unclear. In this study, the performance of these PLD coated samples was evaluated, not only following the physical-chemical transformations resulting from the SBF immersion, but also evaluating the cytocompatibility in contact with osteoblast-like MG63 cells. SEM and AFM confirmed that the bioactive ceramic PLD films reproduce the substrate's surface topography and that the films presented good adherence and uniform surface roughness. Physical-chemical phenomena occurring during immersion in SBF did not modify the original columnar structure. In contact with MG63 cells, coated samples exhibited very good acceptance and cytocompatibility when compared to control. The glass mixed with hydroxyapatite induced higher cellular proliferation. Cells grown on these samples presented many filipodia and granular structures, typical features of osteoblasts.

Abstract
In the current studies, we deposited ultra-thin hydroxyapatite films on a pure titanium substrate by pulsed laser deposition, and we examined the effects of these surfaces on rat bone marrow (RBM) cells. This method allowed deposition of 500-, 2,000-, and 5,000-A-thick hydroxyapatite films. X-ray diffraction showed that the amorphous films recrystallized to a hydroxyapatite crystal structure after annealing. The proliferation of RBM cells was unaffected by the hydroxyapatite films, but osteocalsin and alkaline phosphatase mRNA and protein levels were elevated in cells grown on 2,000- and 5,000-A-thick films. These results indicate that ultra-thin hydroxyapatite films generated by pulsed laser deposition are better at promoting osteogenesis than pure titanium surfaces.

Abstract
Anodic oxidation is an electrochemical treatment that can be used to control the thickness of an oxide layer formed on a titanium surface. This procedure has the advantage of allowing the ions contained in an electrolyte to deposit onto the oxide layer. The characteristics of a layer treated with anodic oxidation can vary according to the type and concentration of the electrolytes as well as the processing variables used during anodic oxidation. In this study, the constant electrolyte for anodic oxidation was a mixed solution containing 0.02 M DL-alpha-glycerophosphate disodium salt and 0.2M calcium acetate. Anodic oxidation was carried out at different voltages, current densities, and duration of anodic oxidation. The results showed that the current density and variation in the duration of anodic oxidation did not have a large effect on the change in the characteristics of the layer. On the other hand, the size of the micropores was increased with increasing voltage of anodic oxidation, and anatase and rutile phases were found to co-exist in the porous titanium dioxide layer. In addition, the thickness of the oxide layer on titanium and the characteristic of corrosion resistance increased with increasing voltage. The MTT test showed that the cell viability was increased considerably as a result of anodic oxidation. The anodizing voltage is an important parameter that determines the characteristics of the anodic oxide layer of titanium.

Abstract
In this study we coated a new biocompatible, nanostructured titanium alloy, Ti13Nb13Zr, with a thin layer of hydroxyapatite nanocrystals and we investigated the response of human bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal cells. The coating was realized using a slightly supersaturated CaP solution, which provokes a fast deposition of nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite. A thin layer of deposition is appreciable on the etched Ti13Nb13Zr substrates after just 1.5 h soaking in the CaP solution, and it reaches a thickness of 1-2 mum after 3 h soaking. The coating seems thinner than that deposited on Ti6Al4V, which was examined for comparison, likely because of the different roughness profiles of the two etched alloys, and it is constituted of elongated HA nanocrystals, with a mean length of about 100 nm. Mesenchymal stem cells were seeded onto coated and uncoated Ti alloys and cultured for up to 35 days. Cell morphology, proliferation and differentiation were evaluated. The cells display good adhesion and proliferation on the uncoated substrates, whereas the presence of hydroxyapatite coating slightly reduces cell proliferation and induces differentiation of MSCs towards a phenotypic osteoblastic lineage, in agreement with the increase of the expression of osteopontin, osteonectin and collagen type I, evaluated by means of rt-PCR. Type I collagen expression is higher in Ti13Nb13Zr MSC culture compared to Ti6Al4V, standing for a more efficient extracellular matrix deposition.

Abstract
Bone-like apatite coating of polymeric substrates by means of biomimetic process is a possible way to enhance the bone bonding ability of the materials. The created apatite layer is believed to have an ability to provide a favorable environment for osteoblasts or osteoprogenitor cells. The purpose of this study is to obtain bone-like apatite layer onto chitosan fiber mesh tissue engineering scaffolds, by means of using a simple biomimetic coating process and to determine the influence of this coating on osteoblastic cell responses. Chitosan fiber mesh scaffolds produced by a previously described wet spinning methodology were initially wet with a Bioglass((R))-water suspension by means of a spraying methodology and then immersed in a simulated body fluid (SBF) mimicking physiological conditions for one week. The formation of apatite layer was observed morphologically by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). As a result of the use of the novel spraying methodology, a fine coating could also be observed penetrating into the pores, that is clearly within the bulk of the scaffolds. Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR-ATR), Electron Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis also confirmed the presence of apatite-like layer. A human osteoblast-like cell line (SaOs-2) was used for the direct cell contact assays. After 2 weeks of culture, samples were observed under the SEM. When compared to the control samples (unmodified chitosan fiber mesh scaffolds) the cell population was found to be higher in the Ca-P biomimetic coated scaffolds, which indicates that the levels of cell proliferation on this kind of scaffolds could be enhanced. Furthermore, it was also observed that the cells seeded in the Ca-P coated scaffolds have a more spread and flat morphology, which reveals an improvement on the cell adhesion patterns, phenomena that are always important in processes such as osteoconduction.
