Abstract
OBJECTIVES Stem cell from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) has great potential for bone tissue engineering and cell therapy for regenerative medicine. It has been combined with biomaterials such as mixed of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and hydroxyapatite (HA) as candidates for synthetic bone graft biomaterial. The aim of this study was to analyze the toxicity test of mixed PMMA-HA scaffold seeded with SHED and osteoblast in vitro. MATERIALS AND METHODS SHED was isolated from the pulp of noncarious deciduous teeth and osteoblast cells were cultured, and exposed to PMMA-HA scaffolds with three concentration groups: 20/80, 30/70, and 40/60 for 24 hours. Cytotoxicity test was performed by MTT assay to cell viability. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 25, one-way analysis of variance followed by least significant difference test, considering the level of significance p-value less than 0.05 RESULTS: The percentage of SHED's viability was best in the PMMA-HA group with concentrations of 20/80, followed by 30/70, and 40/60 with 87.03, 75.33, and 65.79%, respectively. The percentage of osteoblast cell's viability was best in the PMMA-HA group with concentrations of 20/80, followed by 30/70, and 40/60 with 123.6, 108.36, and 93.48%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Mixed PMMA-HA was not toxic for the SHED and osteoblast. This characteristic is the initial requirement to be proposed as an alternative material for healing alveolar bone defects. In vivo animal research is mandatory to confirm the use of PMMA-HA on the alveolar defect model.

Abstract
Bone defects stemming from tumorous growths, traumatic events, and diverse conditions present a profound conundrum in clinical practice and research. While bone has the inherent ability to regenerate, substantial bone anomalies require bone regeneration techniques. Bone organoids represent a new concept in this field, involving the 3D self-assembly of bone-associated stem cells guided in vitro with or without extracellular matrix material, resulting in a tissue that mimics the structural, functional, and genetic properties of native bone tissue. Within the scientific panorama, bone organoids ascend to an esteemed status, securing significant experimental endorsement. Through a synthesis of current literature and pioneering studies, this review offers a comprehensive survey of the bone organoid paradigm, delves into the quintessential architecture and ontogeny of bone, and highlights the latest progress in bone organoid fabrication. Further, existing challenges and prospective directions for future research are identified, advocating for interdisciplinary collaboration to fully harness the potential of this burgeoning domain. Conclusively, as bone organoid technology continues to mature, its implications for both clinical and research landscapes are poised to be profound.

Abstract
A biodegradable amorphous carbonated calcium phosphate (caCP)-incorporated polycaprolactone (PCL) composite layer was successfully deposited by a spin coater. In this specific coating, the PCL acts as a bioadhesive, since it provides a better adherence of the coatings to the substrate compared to powder coatings. The caCP-PCL coatings were deposited and formed thin layers on the surface of a Si3N4-3 wt% MWCNT (multiwalled carbon nanotube) substrate, which is an emerging type of implant material in the biomedical field. The composite coatings were examined regarding their morphology, structure and biological performance. The biocompatibility of the samples was tested in vitro with MC3T3-E1 preosteoblast cells. Owing to the caCP-PCL thin layer, the cell viability values were considerably increased compared to the substrate material. The ALP and LDH tests showed numerous living cells on the investrigated coatings. The morphology of the MC3T3-E1 cells was examined by fluorescent staining (calcein and DAPI) and scanning electron microscopy, both of which revealed a well-spread, adhered and confluent monolayer of cells. All performed biocompatibility tests were positive and indicated the applicability of the deposited thin composite layers as possible candidates for orthopaedic implants for an extended period.

Abstract
Background The M1/M2 polarization of intestinal macrophages exerts an essential function in the pathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC), which can be adjusted to alleviate the UC symptoms. Purpose A kind of pH-sensitive lipid calcium phosphate core-shell nanoparticles (NPs), co-loading with dexamethasone (Dex) and its water-soluble salts, dexamethasone sodium phosphate (Dsp), was constructed to comprehensively regulate macrophages in different states towards the M2 phenotype to promote anti-inflammatory effects. Methods Dex and Dsp were loaded in the outer lipid shell and inner lipid calcium phosphate (Cap) core of the LdCaPd NPs, respectively. Then, the morphology of NPs and methods for determining drug concentration were investigated, followed by in vitro protein adsorption, stability, and release tests. Cell experiments evaluated the cytotoxicity, cellular uptake, and macrophage polarization induction ability of NPs. The in vivo distribution and anti-inflammatory effect of NPs were evaluated through a 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced BALB/c mice ulcerative colitis model. Results The LdCaPd NPs showed a particle size of about 200 nm and achieved considerable loading amounts of Dex and Dsp. The in vitro and in vivo studies revealed that in the acidic UC microenvironment, the cationic lipid shell of LdCaPd underwent protonated dissociation to release Dex first for creating a microenvironment conducive to M2 polarization. Then, the exposed CaP core was further engulfed by M1 macrophages to release Dsp to restrict the pro-inflammatory cytokines production by inhibiting the activation and function of the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) through activating the GC receptor and the NF kappa B inhibitor α (I-κBα), respectively, ultimately reversing the M1 polarization to promote the anti-inflammatory therapy. Conclusion The LdCaPd NPs accomplished the sequential release of Dex and Dsp to the UC site and the inflammatory M1 macrophages at this site, promoting the regulation of macrophage polarization to accelerate the remission of UC symptoms.

Abstract
Infectious bone defects are characterized by the partial loss or destruction of bone tissue resulting from bacterial contaminations subsequent to diseases or external injuries. Traditional bone transplantation and clinical methods are insufficient in meeting the treatment demands for such diseases. As a result, researchers have increasingly focused on the development of more sophisticated biomaterials for improved therapeutic outcomes in recent years. This review endeavors to investigate specific reparative materials utilized for the treatment of infectious bone defects, particularly those present in the maxillofacial region, with a focus on biomaterials capable of releasing therapeutic substances, functional contact biomaterials, and novel physical therapy materials. These biomaterials operate via heightened antibacterial or osteogenic properties in order to eliminate bacteria and/or stimulate bone cells regeneration in the defect, ultimately fostering the reconstitution of maxillofacial bone tissue. Based upon some successful applications of new concept materials in bone repair of other parts, we also explore their future prospects and potential uses in maxillofacial bone repair later in this review. We highlight that the exploration of advanced biomaterials holds promise in establishing a solid foundation for the development of more biocompatible, effective, and personalized treatments for reconstructing infectious maxillofacial defects.

Abstract
3D printing technology offers extensive applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM) because it can create a three-dimensional porous structure with acceptable porosity and fine mechanical qualities that can mimic natural bone. Hydroxyapatite (HA) is commonly used as a bone repair material due to its excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) can regulate bone metabolism and stimulate the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. This study has designed a functionalized bone regeneration scaffold (3D H-P-sEVs) by combining the biological activity of BMSCs-sEVs and the 3D-HA scaffold to improve bone regeneration. The scaffold utilizes the targeting of fusion peptides to increase the loading efficiency of sEVs. The composition, structure, mechanical properties, and in vitro degradation performance of the 3D H-P-sEVs scaffolds were examined. The composite scaffold demonstrated good biocompatibility, substantially increased the expression of osteogenic-related genes and proteins, and had a satisfactory bone integration effect in the critical skull defect model of rats. In conclusion, the combination of EVs and 3D-HA scaffold via fusion peptide provides an innovative composite scaffold for bone regeneration and repair, improving osteogenic performance.

Abstract
The aim of the experiment was to evaluate the biocompatibility of four 3D-printed biomaterials planned for use in the surgical treatment of finger amputees: Ti-6Al-4 V (Ti64), ZrO2-Al2O3 ceramic material (ATZ20), and osteoconductive (anodized Ti64) and antibacterial (Hydroxyapatite, HAp) coatings that adhere well to materials dedicated to finger bone implants. The work concerns the correlation of mechanical, microstructural, and biological properties of dedicated materials. Biological tests consisted of determining the overall cytotoxicity of the organism on the basis of in vivo tests carried out in accordance with the ISO 10993-6 and ISO 10993-11 standards. Clinical observations followed by diagnostic examinations, histopathological evaluation, and biochemical characterization showed no significant differences between control and tested groups of animals. The wound healed without complication, and no pathological effects were found. The wear test showed the fragility of the hydroxyapatite thin layer and the mechanical stability of the zirconia-based ceramic substrate. Electron microscopy observations revealed the layered structure of tested substrates and coatings.

Abstract
Addressing major bone injuries is a challenge in bone regeneration, necessitating innovative 3D hydrogel-based therapeutic approaches to enhance scaffold properties for better bioactivity. Bacterial cellulose (BC) is an excellent scaffold for bone tissue engineering due to its biocompatibility, high porosity, substantial surface area, and remarkable mechanical strength. However, its practical application is limited due to a lack of inherent osteogenic activity and biomineralization ability. In this study, we synthesized bone-like apatite in biocompatible BC hydrogel by introducing phosphate groups. Hydrogels were prepared using fibrous BC, acrylamide (AM), and bis [2-methacryloyloxy] ethyl phosphate (BMEP) as a crosslinker through free radical polymerization (P-BC-PAM). P-BC-PAM hydrogels exhibited outstanding compressive mechanical properties, highly interconnected porous structures, good swelling, and biodegradable properties. BMEP content significantly influenced the physicochemical and biological properties of the hydrogels. Increasing BMEP content enhanced the fibrous structure, porosity from 85.1 % to 89.5 %, and compressive mechanical strength. The optimized hydrogel (2.0P-BC-PAM) displayed maximum compressive stress, toughness, and elastic modulus at 75 % strain: 221 ± 0.08 kPa, 24,674.2 ± 978 kPa, and 11 ± 0.47 kPa, respectively. P-BC-PAM hydrogels underwent biomineralization in simulated body fluid (SBF) for 14 days, forming bone-like apatite with a Ca/P ratio of 1.75, similar to hydroxyapatite. Confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), this suggests their potential as scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. MC3T3-E1 osteoblast cells effectively attached and proliferated on P-BC-PAM. In summary, this study contributes insights into developing phosphate-functionalized BC-based hydrogels with potential applications in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The clinical utility of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) is limited because of the poor attraction between BMP2 and carriers, resulting in low loading efficiency and initial burst release. Here, the high binding affinity of BMP2 to the biosilica surface was utilized to overcome this limitation. Atomic force microscopy revealed that BMP2 bound nearly 8- and 2-fold more strongly to biosilica-coated hydroxyapatite than to uncoated and plain silica-coated hydroxyapatite, respectively. To achieve controlled release, collagen was introduced between the silica layers on hydroxyapatite, which was optimized by adjusting the collagen concentration and number of layers. The optimal biosilica/collagen formulation induced sustained BMP2 release without compromising loading efficiency. BMP2 combined with the mentioned formulation led to an increase in osteogenesis, as compared to the combination of BMP2 with either biosilica-coated or non-coated hydroxyapatite in vitro. In rat calvarial defect models, the biosilica/collagen-coated hydroxyapatite with 1 μg BMP2 showed 26 % more bone regeneration than the same dose of BMP2-loaded hydroxyapatite and 10.6 % more than hydroxyapatite with 2.5-fold dose of BMP2. Using BMP2 affinity carriers coated with biosilica/collagen allows for more efficacious in situ loading and delivery of BMP2, making them suitable for the clinical application of growth factors through a soaking method.

[PMID: 37637080 PMCID: PMC10457517 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.07.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 07/30/2023] [Accepted: 07/30/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Loss of sweat glands (SwGs) commonly associated with extensive skin defects is a leading cause of hyperthermia and heat stroke. In vivo tissue engineering possesses the potential to take use of the body natural ability to regenerate SwGs, making it more conducive to clinical translation. Despite recent advances in regenerative medicine, reconstructing SwG tissue with the same structure and function as native tissue remains challenging. Elucidating the SwG generation mechanism and developing biomaterials for in vivo tissue engineering is essential for understanding and developing in vivo SwG regenerative strategies. Here, we outline the cell biology associated with functional wound healing and the characteristics of bioactive materials. We critically summarize the recent progress in bioactive material-based cell modulation approaches for in vivo SwG regeneration, including the recruitment of endogenous cells to the skin lesion for SwG regeneration and in vivo cellular reprogramming for SwG regeneration. We discussed the re-establishment of microenvironment via bioactive material-mediated regulators. Besides, we offer promising perspectives for directing in situ SwG regeneration via bioactive material-based cell-free strategy, which is a simple and effective approach to regenerate SwG tissue with both fidelity of structure and function. Finally, we discuss the opportunities and challenges of in vivo SwG regeneration in detail. The molecular mechanisms and cell fate modulation of in vivo SwG regeneration will provide further insights into the regeneration of patient-specific SwGs and the development of potential intervention strategies for gland-derived diseases.

Functionalized Magnesium Phosphate Cement Induces In Situ Vascularized Bone Regeneration via Surface Lyophilization of Chondroitin Sulfate. Biomedicines 2023; 12:74. [PMID: 38255182 PMCID: PMC10812989 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12010074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Bone defect repair poses significant challenges in orthopedics, thereby increasing the demand for bone substitutes. Magnesium phosphate cements (MPCs) are widely used for bone defect repair because of their excellent mechanical properties and biodegradability. However, high crystallinity and uncontrolled magnesium ion (Mg2+) release limit the surface bioactivity of MPCs in bone regeneration. Here, we fabricate chondroitin sulfate (CS) as a surface coating via the lyophilization method, namely CMPC. We find that the CS coating is uniformly distributed and improves the mechanical properties of MPC through anionic electrostatic adsorption, while mediating degradation-related controlled ion release of Mg2+. Using a combination of in vitro and in vivo analyses, we show that the CS coating maintained cytocompatibility while increasing the cell adhesion area of MC3T3-E1s. Furthermore, we display accelerated osteogenesis and angiogenesis of CMPC, which are related to appropriate ion concentration of Mg2+. Our findings reveal that the preparation of a lyophilized CS coating is an effective method to promote surface bioactivity and mediate Mg2+ concentration dependent osteogenesis and angiogenesis, which have great potential in bone regeneration.

Abstract
In recent years, significant developments have taken place in scientific fields such as tissue and materials engineering, which allow for the development of new, intelligent biomaterials. An example of such biomaterials is drug delivery systems that release the active substance directly at the site where the therapeutic effect is required. In this research, polymeric materials and ceramic-polymer composites were developed as carriers for the antibiotic clindamycin. The preparation and characterization of biomaterials based on hyaluronic acid, collagen, and nano brushite obtained using the photocrosslinking technique under UV (ultraviolet) light are described. Physical and chemical analyses of the materials obtained were carried out using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and optical microscopy. The sorption capacities were determined and subjected to in vitro incubation in simulated biological environments such as Ringer's solution, simulated body fluid (SBF), phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), and distilled water. The antibiotic release rate was also measured. The study confirmed higher swelling capacity for materials with no addition of a ceramic phase, thus it can be concluded that brushite inhibits the penetration of the liquid medium into the interior of the samples, leading to faster absorption of the liquid medium. In addition, incubation tests confirmed preliminary biocompatibility. No drastic changes in pH values were observed, which suggests that the materials are stable under these conditions. The release rate of the antibiotic from the biomaterial into the incubation medium was determined using high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). The concentration of the antibiotic in the incubation fluid increased steadily following a 14-day incubation in PBS, indicating continuous antibiotic release. Based on the results, it can be concluded that the developed polymeric material demonstrates potential for use as a carrier for the active substance.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Regenerative dentistry aims to regenerate the pulp-dentin complex and restore those of its functions that have become compromised by pulp injury and/or inflammation. Scaffold-based techniques are a regeneration strategy that replicate a biological environment by utilizing a suitable scaffold, which is considered crucial for the successful regeneration of dental pulp. The aim of the present review is to address the main characteristics of the different scaffolds, as well as their application in dentin-pulp complex regeneration. Materials and Methods: A narrative review was conducted by two independent reviewers to answer the research question: What type of scaffolds can be used in dentin-pulp complex regeneration? An electronic search of PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane library databases was undertaken. Keywords including "pulp-dentin regeneration scaffold" and "pulp-dentin complex regeneration" were used. To locate additional reports, reference mining of the identified papers was undertaken. Results: A wide variety of biomaterials is already available for tissue engineering and can be broadly categorized into two groups: (i) natural, and (ii) synthetic, scaffolds. Natural scaffolds often contain bioactive molecules, growth factors, and signaling cues that can positively influence cell behavior. These signaling molecules can promote specific cellular responses, such as cell proliferation and differentiation, crucial for effective tissue regeneration. Synthetic scaffolds offer flexibility in design and can be tailored to meet specific requirements, such as size, shape, and mechanical properties. Moreover, they can be functionalized with bioactive molecules, growth factors, or signaling cues to enhance their biological properties and the manufacturing process can be standardized, ensuring consistent quality for widespread clinical use. Conclusions: There is still a lack of evidence to determine the optimal scaffold composition that meets the specific requirements and complexities needed for effectively promoting dental pulp tissue engineering and achieving successful clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Improvements in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine (TERM)-type technologies have allowed the development of specific materials that, together with a better understanding of bone tissue structure, have provided new pathways to obtain biomaterials for bone tissue regeneration. In this manuscript, bioabsorbable materials are presented as emerging materials in tissue engineering therapies related to bone lesions because of their ability to degrade in physiological environments while the regeneration process is completed. This comprehensive review aims to explore the studies, published since its inception (2010s) to the present, on bioabsorbable composite materials based on PLA and PCL polymeric matrix reinforced with Mg, which is also bioabsorbable and has recognized osteoinductive capacity. The research collected in the literature reveals studies based on different manufacturing and dispersion processes of the reinforcement as well as the physicochemical analysis and corresponding biological evaluation to know the osteoinductive capacity of the proposed PLA/Mg and PCL/Mg composites. In short, this review shows the potential of these composite materials and serves as a guide for those interested in bioabsorbable materials applied in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
In biomaterial-based bone tissue engineering, optimizing scaffold structure and composition remains an active field of research. Additive manufacturing has enabled the production of custom designs in a variety of materials. This study aims to improve the design of calcium-phosphate-based additively manufactured scaffolds, the material of choice in oral bone regeneration, by using a combination of in silico and in vitro tools. Computer models are increasingly used to assist in design optimization by providing a rational way of merging different requirements into a single design. The starting point for this study was an in-house developed in silico model describing the in vitro formation of neotissue, i.e., cells and the extracellular matrix they produced. The level set method was applied to simulate the interface between the neotissue and the void space inside the scaffold pores. In order to calibrate the model, a custom disk-shaped scaffold was produced with prismatic canals of different geometries (circle, hexagon, square, triangle) and inner diameters (0.5 mm, 0.7 mm, 1 mm, 2 mm). The disks were produced with three biomaterials (hydroxyapatite, tricalcium phosphate, and a blend of both). After seeding with skeletal progenitor cells and a cell culture for up to 21 days, the extent of neotissue growth in the disks' canals was analyzed using fluorescence microscopy. The results clearly demonstrated that in the presence of calcium-phosphate-based materials, the curvature-based growth principle was maintained. Bayesian optimization was used to determine the model parameters for the different biomaterials used. Subsequently, the calibrated model was used to predict neotissue growth in a 3D gyroid structure. The predicted results were in line with the experimentally obtained ones, demonstrating the potential of the calibrated model to be used as a tool in the design and optimization of 3D-printed calcium-phosphate-based biomaterials for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is the most well-known bioceramic and widely utilized in bone tissue regeneration. Hydroxyapatite is biocompatible and bioactive however, it lacks osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and antibacterial properties. In the current study, we synthesized and evaluated a novel nickel (Ni) and silver (Ag) codoped hydroxyapatite (HAp) in comparison to undoped HAp and individually doped HAp samples. Extensive physicochemical characterizations like XRD, TEM, FE-SEM/EDS, FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, and TGA were performed, confirming the crystal structure and morphology of the synthesized HAp samples. All HAp samples exhibited elongated spherical-like nanoparticle morphologies with lengths between 34 and 44 nm and widths between 21 and 26 nm. The presence of dopant atoms, Ag and Ni, were observed in the doped/codoped HAp samples by EDS elemental mapping. Biocompatibility assessments using pre-osteoblast cells indicated high cell viability for all the doped and undoped HAp samples. Osteoinduction potential through alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity measurements and alizarin red S (ARS) staining revealed enhanced calcium deposition in the presence of Ni-Ag codoped HAp compared to other HAp samples and control groups. This highlights the importance of Ni-Ag co-doping in promoting osteogenesis, surpassing the effects of silver doped HAp and nickel doped HAp. The potential of this novel Ni-Ag codoped HAp to induce osteogenesis in pre-osteoblast cells makes it a promising material for various applications in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to explore the potential of biomimetic hydrogels as an alternative to bone cement in vertebral body stenting (VBS), a minimally invasive treatment for vertebral compression fractures. RECENT FINDINGS The use of bone cement in VBS procedures can lead to complications such as incomplete fracture reduction and cement leakage. Biomimetic hydrogels have gained significant attention as potential biomaterial alternatives for VBS due to their unique properties, including tuneable therapeutic and mechanical properties. Over the past decade, there has been significant advancements in the development of biomimetic hydrogels for bone regeneration, employing a wide range of approaches to enhance the structural and functional properties of hydrogels. Biomimetic hydrogels hold significant promise as safer and reparative alternatives to bone cement for VBS procedures. However, further research and development in this field are necessary to explore the full potential of hydrogel-based systems for vertebral bone repair.

Abstract
AIM This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of calcium phosphate-poly(lactide-co-glycolide) composite graft in the regeneration of intrabony defects in chronic periodontitis patients over a period of 12 months. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 11 systemically healthy chronic periodontitis patients with 22 graftable sites were treated with calcium phosphate cement (CPC) bone graft (control group) and CPC-poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)(PLGA) composite (test group) after flap reflection and debridement. Clinical parameters such as probing pocket depth (PPD) and clinical attachment level (CAL) were recorded at baseline and 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. Bone probing depth (BPD) and radiographic parameters such as defect depth (DD), changes in alveolar crest level (ALR), defect depth reduction (DDR), and percentage in defect depth reduction (PDDR) were calculated at baseline, and 6 and 12 months. The data were recorded and statistically analyzed. RESULTS On intragroup comparison, there was a significant improvement in all the parameters over a period of 1 year (clinically and radiographically). However, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in any of the parameters though there was a slightly higher bone fill noted in the test group. CONCLUSION Even though the CPC-PLGA composite bone graft showed a slight improvement in clinical and radiographic parameters as compared to the CPC graft, it was not statistically significant. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE A major drawback of Calcium Phosphate cements as bone grafts is their poor degradability. The PLGA microspheres degrade to expose macropores and interconnected pores in the graft substrate which in turn would promote the ingrowth of osteoblasts. Also, this composite graft is mouldable, and resorbable and has been shown to snugly fit into the defects making them a suitable scaffold material.

Advances and challenges in regenerative dentistry: A systematic review of calcium phosphate and silicate-based materials on human dental pulp stem cells. Mater Today Bio 2023; 23:100815. [PMID: 37779917 PMCID: PMC10539671 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2023.100815] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Conventional dentistry faces limitations in preserving tooth health due to the finite lifespan of restorative materials. Regenerative dentistry, utilizing stem cells and bioactive materials, offers a promising approach for regenerating dental tissues. Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) and bioactive materials like calcium phosphate (CaP) and silicate-based materials have shown potential for dental tissue regeneration. This systematic review aims to investigate the effects of CaP and silicate-based materials on hDPSCs through in vitro studies published since 2015. Following the PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive search strategy was implemented in PubMed MedLine, Cochrane, and ScienceDirect databases. Eligibility criteria were established using the PICOS scheme. Data extraction and risk of bias (RoB) assessment were conducted, with the included studies assessed for bias using the Office of Health and Translation (OHAT) RoB tool. The research has been registered at OSF Registries. Ten in vitro studies met the eligibility criteria out of 1088 initial studies. Methodological heterogeneity and the use of self-synthesized biomaterials with limited generalizability were observed in the included study. The findings highlight the positive effect of CaP and silicate-based materials on hDPSCs viability, adhesion, migration, proliferation, and differentiation. While the overall RoB assessment indicated satisfactory credibility of the reviewed studies, the limited number of studies and methodological heterogeneity pose challenges for quantitative research. In conclusion, this systematic review provides valuable insights into the effects of CaP and silicate-based materials on hDPSCs. Further research is awaited to enhance our understanding and optimize regenerative dental treatments using bioactive materials and hDPSCs, which promise to improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Critical bone defects complicate tissue graft-based surgeries, raising healthcare expenditures and underscoring scaffold-based tissue-engineering strategies to support bone reconstruction. Our study highlighted that the phase-compatible combination of inorganic nanorods, nanofibers, and hydrogels is promising for developing biomimetic and cell-instructive scaffolds since the bone matrix is a porous organic/inorganic composite. In brief, methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) was reacted with dopamine to form catechol-modified GeLMA (GelMA-C). The GelMA-C was nanocoated onto an iron-doped hydroxyapatite (FeHAp) nanorod via metal-catechol network coordination. The modified nanorod (FeHAp@GelMA-C) was loaded onto GelMA-based nanofibers. The nanorods loaded pre-fibers were electrospun onto GelMA solution and photochemically crosslinked to fabricate a fiber-reinforced hydrogel. The structural, mechanical, physicochemical, biocompatibility, swelling properties, osteogenic potential, and bone remodelling potential (using rat femoral defect model) of modified nanorods, simple hydrogel, and nanorod-loaded fiber-reinforced hydrogel were studied. The results supported that the interface interaction between GelMA-C/nanorods, nanorods/nanofibers, nanorods/hydrogels, and nanofiber/hydrogels significantly improved the microstructural and mechanical properties of the scaffold. Compared to pristine hydrogel, the nanorod-loaded fiber-reinforced scaffold better supported cellular responses, osteogenic differentiation, matrix mineralization, and accelerated bone regeneration. The nanorod-loaded fiber-reinforced hydrogel proved more biomimetic and cell-instructive for guided bone reconstruction.

Abstract
Bone is one of the most vascular network-rich tissues in the body and the vascular system is essential for the development, homeostasis, and regeneration of bone. When segmental irreversible damage occurs to the bone, restoring its vascular system by means other than autogenous bone grafts with vascular pedicles is a therapeutic challenge. By pre-generating the vascular network of the scaffold in vivo or in vitro, the pre-vascularization technique enables an abundant blood supply in the scaffold after implantation. However, pre-vascularization techniques are time-consuming, and in vivo pre-vascularization techniques can be damaging to the body. Critical bone deficiencies may be filled quickly with immediate implantation of a supporting bone tissue engineered scaffold. However, bone tissue engineered scaffolds generally lack vascularization, which requires modification of the scaffold to aid in enhancing internal vascularization. In this review, we summarize the relationship between the vascular system and osteogenesis and use it as a basis to further discuss surgical and cytotechnology-based pre-vascularization strategies and to describe the preparation of vascularized bone tissue engineered scaffolds that can be implanted immediately. We anticipate that this study will serve as inspiration for future vascularized bone tissue engineered scaffold construction and will aid in the achievement of clinical vascularized bone.

Metal Organic Framework-Incorporated Three-Dimensional (3D) Bio-Printable Hydrogels to Facilitate Bone Repair: Preparation and In Vitro Bioactivity Analysis. Gels 2023; 9:923.

Abstract
Hydrogels are three-dimensional (3D) water-swellable polymeric matrices that are used extensively in tissue engineering and drug delivery. Hydrogels can be conformed into any desirable shape using 3D bio-printing, making them suitable for personalized treatment. Among the different 3D bio-printing techniques, digital light processing (DLP)-based printing offers the advantage of quickly fabricating high resolution structures, reducing the chances of cell damage during the printing process. Here, we have used DLP to 3D bio-print biocompatible gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) scaffolds intended for bone repair. GelMA is biocompatible, biodegradable, has integrin binding motifs that promote cell adhesion, and can be crosslinked easily to form hydrogels. However, GelMA on its own is incapable of promoting bone repair and must be supplemented with pharmaceutical molecules or growth factors, which can be toxic or expensive. To overcome this limitation, we introduced zinc-based metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticles into GelMA that can promote osteogenic differentiation, providing safer and more affordable alternatives to traditional methods. Incorporation of this nanoparticle into GelMA hydrogel has demonstrated significant improvement across multiple aspects, including bio-printability, and favorable mechanical properties (showing a significant increase in the compressive modulus from 52.14 ± 19.42 kPa to 128.13 ± 19.46 kPa with the addition of ZIF-8 nanoparticles). The designed nanocomposite hydrogels can also sustain drug (vancomycin) release (maximum 87.52 ± 1.6% cumulative amount) and exhibit a remarkable ability to differentiate human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells toward the osteogenic lineage. Furthermore, the formulated MOF-integrated nanocomposite hydrogel offers the unique capability to coat metallic implants intended for bone healing. Overall, the remarkable printability and coating ability displayed by the nanocomposite hydrogel presents itself as a promising candidate for drug delivery, cell delivery and bone tissue engineering applications.

Bone regeneration property of tooth-derived bone substitute prepared chairside for periodontal bone defects: an experimental study. BMC Oral Health 2023; 23:863. [PMID: 37964242 PMCID: PMC10647160 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-03582-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Periodontitis often leads to progressive destruction and loss of alveolar bone, the reconstruction of which remains difficult in periodontal therapy. As a novel bone graft material, tooth-derived bone substitute (TDBS) processed from extracted teeth has been previously reported about its osteoconductivity and promising results in bone regeneration. This study was to investigate the biological effects and bone regeneration properties of TDBS in vitro and in vivo using rat periodontal bone defect model. METHODS Three groups of materials were used in the experiments: TDBS, TDBS treated with ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) (TDBS-E), and allogeneic bone materials. Calcium (Ca) and phosphate (P) ion dissolutions were quantified by spectrophotometer for seven days. The releases of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) were identified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Human osteoblast proliferation, migration, and differentiation were detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, cell counting, alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP), and alizarin red staining (ARS), respectively. Furthermore, the osteogenic effects of TDBS on periodontal furcation bone defects were evaluated at eight weeks postoperatively using micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) and histological analysis. RESULTS The dissolution of both Ca and P ions in TDBS increased over time. The BMP-2 released from TDBS was significantly higher than that from TDBS-E and allografts, while the TGF-β1 release from TDBS and TDBS-E groups was higher than that in the allografts. The TDBS-E group could induce the highest level of osteoblast proliferation compared to other groups. Cell migration with allografts co-culture was significantly induced compared to the blank control. However, all groups demonstrated similar positive effects on osteoblast differentiation. Furthermore, in the periodontal model, all materials could effectively enhance bone regeneration in the furcation defect. CONCLUSIONS The TDBS prepared chairside as an autogenous bone graft, demonstrating osteoinductivity, which enhances the osteogenic biological characteristics. Therefore, TDBS is suggested as an economical and biocompatible material for periodontal bone regeneration.

Abstract
There is evidence that surgical site tissue (SSRT) released during orthopedic surgery has a strong mesenchymal regenerative potential. Some data also suggest that this tissue may activate synthetic or natural bone substitute materials and can thus upgrade its osteopromoting properties. In this comparative in vitro study, we investigate the composition of SSRT during total hip replacement (n = 20) harvested using a surgical suction handle. In addition, the osteopromoting effect of the cells isolated from SSRT is elucidated when incubated with porous beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) or 80% medical-grade poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL)/20% TCP composite material. We identified multiple growth factors and cytokines with significantly higher levels of PDGF and VEGF in SSRT compared to peripheral blood. The overall number of MSC was 0.09 ± 0.12‱ per gram of SSRT. A three-lineage specific differentiation was possible in all cases. PCL-TCP cultures showed a higher cell density and cell viability compared to TCP after 6 weeks in vitro. Moreover, PCL-TCP cultures showed a higher osteocalcin expression but no significant differences in osteopontin and collagen I synthesis. We could demonstrate the high regenerative potential from SSRT harvested under vacuum in a PMMA filter device. The in vitro data suggest advantages in cytocompatibility for the PCL-TCP composite compared to TCP alone.

Abstract
Hyaline articular cartilage has unique physiological, biological, and biomechanical properties with very limited self-healing ability, which makes the process of cartilage regeneration extremely difficult. Therefore, research is currently focused on finding new and potentially better treatment options. The main objective of this in vivo study was to evaluate a novel biocement CX consisting of tetracalcium phosphate-monetit biocement hardened with a phytic acid-phytase mixture for the regeneration of osteochondral defects in sheep. The results were compared with tetracalcium phosphate-monetit biocement with classic fast-setting cement systems and untreated defects. After 6 months, the animals were sacrificed, and the samples were evaluated using macroscopic and histologic methods as well as X-ray, CT, and MR-imaging techniques. In contrast to the formation of fibrous or fibrocartilaginous tissue on the untreated side, treatment with biocements resulted in the formation of tissue with a dominant hyaline cartilage structure, although fine fibres were present (p < 0.001). There were no signs of pathomorphological changes or inflammation. Continuous formation of subchondral bone and hyaline cartilage layers was present even though residual biocement was observed in the trabecular bone. We consider biocement CX to be highly biocompatible and suitable for the treatment of osteochondral defects.

Enhanced antimicrobial properties and bioactivity of 3D-printed titanium scaffolds by multilayer bioceramic coating for large bone defects. Biomed Mater 2023; 18:065020.

Abstract
The restoration of large bone defects caused by trauma, tumor resection, or infection is a major clinical problem in orthopedics and dentistry because postoperative infections, corrosion, and limited osteointegration of metal implants can lead to loosening of the implant. The aim of this study was to improve the surface properties of a 3D-printed (electron beam melting) Ti6Al4V-based macroporous scaffold by multilayer coating with bioactive silicate glasses (BAGs) and hydroxyapatite doped with a silver (AgHAP) or AgHAP additionally sonochemically modified with ZnO (ZnO-AgHAP). The coated scaffolds AgHAP_BAGs_Ti and ZnO-AgHAP_BAGs_Ti enhanced cytocompatibility in L929 and MRC5 cell lines and expressed bioactivity in simulated body fluid. A lower release of vanadium ions in coated samples compared to bare Ti scaffold indicates decreased dissolution of Ti alloy in coated samples. The coated samples reduced growth ofEscherichia coliandStaphylococcus aureusfor 4-6 orders of magnitude. Therefore, the 3D-printed Ti-based scaffolds coated with BAGs and (ZnO-)AgHAP have great potential for application as a multifunctional implant with antibacterial properties for the restoration of defects in load-bearing bones.

Abstract
There is growing interest in the use of micro-sized hydrogels, including bioactive signals, as efficient platforms for tissue regeneration because they are able to mimic cell niche structure and selected functionalities. Herein, it is proposed to optimize bioactive composite microgels via electrohydrodynamic atomization (EHDA) to regenerate the dentin-pulp complex. The addition of disodium phosphate (Na2HPO4) salts as mineral precursors triggered an in situ reaction with divalent ions in solution, thus promoting the encapsulation of different amounts of apatite-like phases. Morphological analysis via image analysis of optical images confirmed a narrow distribution of perfectly rounded particles, with an average diameter ranging from 223 ± 18 μm to 502 ± 64 μm as a function of mineral content and process parameters used. FTIR, TEM, and EDAX analyses confirmed the formation of calcium phosphates with a characteristic Ca/P ratio close to 1.67 and a needle-like crystal shape. In vitro studies-using dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) in crown sections of natural teeth slices-showed an increase in cell viability until 14 days, recording a decay of proliferation at 21 days, independent on the mineral amount, suggesting that differentiation is started, as confirmed by the increase of ALP activity at 14 days. In this view, mineralized microgels could be successfully used to support in vitro osteogenesis, working as an interesting model to study dental tissue regeneration.

A Comparison of In Vivo Bone Tissue Generation Using Calcium Phosphate Bone Substitutes in a Novel 3D Printed Four-Chamber Periosteal Bioreactor. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:1233.

Abstract
Autologous bone replacement remains the preferred treatment for segmental defects of the mandible; however, it cannot replicate complex facial geometry and causes donor site morbidity. Bone tissue engineering has the potential to overcome these limitations. Various commercially available calcium phosphate-based bone substitutes (Novabone®, BioOss®, and Zengro®) are commonly used in dentistry for small bone defects around teeth and implants. However, their role in ectopic bone formation, which can later be applied as vascularized graft in a bone defect, is yet to be explored. Here, we compare the above-mentioned bone substitutes with autologous bone with the aim of selecting one for future studies of segmental mandibular repair. Six female sheep, aged 7-8 years, were implanted with 40 mm long four-chambered polyether ether ketone (PEEK) bioreactors prepared using additive manufacturing followed by plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) to improve hydrophilicity and bioactivity. Each bioreactor was wrapped with vascularized scapular periosteum and the chambers were filled with autologous bone graft, Novabone®, BioOss®, and Zengro®, respectively. The bioreactors were implanted within a subscapular muscle pocket for either 8 weeks (two sheep), 10 weeks (two sheep), or 12 weeks (two sheep), after which they were removed and assessed by microCT and routine histology. Moderate bone formation was observed in autologous bone grafts, while low bone formation was observed in the BioOss® and Zengro® chambers. No bone formation was observed in the Novabone® chambers. Although the BioOss® and Zengro® chambers contained relatively small amounts of bone, endochondral ossification and retained hydroxyapatite suggest their potential in new bone formation in an ectopic site if a consistent supply of progenitor cells and/or growth factors can be ensured over a longer duration.

Abstract
Despite significant advancements in dental tissue restoration and the use of prostheses for addressing tooth loss, the prevailing clinical approaches remain somewhat inadequate for replicating native dental tissue characteristics. The emergence of three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting offers a promising innovation within the fields of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. This technology offers notable precision and efficiency, thereby introducing a fresh avenue for tissue regeneration. Unlike the traditional framework encompassing scaffolds, cells, and signaling factors, 3D bioprinting constitutes a contemporary addition to the arsenal of tissue engineering tools. The ongoing shift from conventional dentistry to a more personalized paradigm, principally under the guidance of bioprinting, is poised to exert a significant influence in the foreseeable future. This systematic review undertakes the task of aggregating and analyzing insights related to the application of bioprinting in the context of regenerative dentistry. Adhering to PRISMA guidelines, an exhaustive literature survey spanning the years 2019 to 2023 was performed across prominent databases including PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect. The landscape of regenerative dentistry has ushered in novel prospects for dentoalveolar treatments and personalized interventions. This review expounds on contemporary accomplishments and avenues for the regeneration of pulp-dentin, bone, periodontal tissues, and gingival tissues. The progressive strides achieved in the realm of bioprinting hold the potential to not only enhance the quality of life but also to catalyze transformative shifts within the domains of medical and dental practices.

Abstract
Aims The primary aim of this study is to assess the survival of the uncemented hydroxyapatite (HA) coated Trident II acetabular component as part of a hybrid total hip arthroplasty (THA) using a cemented Exeter stem. The secondary aims are to assess the complications, joint-specific function, health-related quality of life, and radiological signs of loosening of the acetabular component. Methods A single-centre, prospective cohort study of 125 implants will be undertaken. Patients undergoing hybrid THA at the study centre will be recruited. Inclusion criteria are patients suitable for the use of the uncemented acetabular component, aged 18 to 75 years, willing and able to comply with the study protocol, and provide informed consent. Exclusion criteria includes patients not meeting study inclusion criteria, inadequate bone stock to support fixation of the prosthesis, a BMI > 40 kg/m2, or THA performed for pain relief in those with severely restricted mobility. Results Implant survival, complications, functional outcomes and radiological assessment up to ten years following index THA (one, two, five, seven, and ten years) will be performed. Functional assessment will include the Oxford Hip Score, Forgotten Joint Score, 12-Item Short Form Health Survey, EuroQol five-dimension health questionnaire, and pain and patient satisfaction. Radiological assessment with assess for acetabula lucent lines, lysis, and loosening according to DeLee and Charnley zones. Conclusion This study is part of a stepwise introduction of a new device to orthopaedic practice, and careful monitoring of implants should be carried out as part of the Beyond Compliance principles. The results of this study will provide functional, radiological, and survival data to either support the ongoing use of the HA acetabulum or highlight potential limitations of this new implant before wide adoption.

Abstract
Bioceramic materials have a wide range of applications in the biomedical field, such as in the repair of bone defects and dental surgery. Silicate-based bioceramics have attracted biomedical researchers' interest due to their bioactivity and biodegradability. In this study, extended the scope of ZAS utilization in bone tissue engineering by introducing calcium-magnesium-silicate (diopside, CMS) as an interface material aim to develop a machinable bioceramic composite (ZASCMS) by the sol-gel method. The physicochemical characterization, in vitro biological properties and in vivo zebrafish cytotoxicity study of ZAS-based composites as a function of CMS contents, 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 wt%, were performed. Results showed that the as-prepared ZASCMS possessed porous architecture with well-interconnected pore structure. Results also revealed that the mechanical properties of ZASCMS composite materials were gradually improved with increasing CMS contents. The ZASCMS composites with more than 50 wt% CMS had the highest compressive strength and modulus of 6.78 ± 0.62 MPa and 340.10 ± 16.81 MPa, respectively. Regarding in vitro bioactivities, the composite scaffolds were found to stimulate osteoblast-like UMR-106 cell adhesion, growth, and proliferation. The antibacterial activity of the ZASCMS composite scaffolds was tested against Staphylococcus epidermidis (S. epidermidis) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) also exhibited an antibacterial property. Furthermore, the in vivo studies using embryonic zebrafish were exposed to as-prepared particles (0-500 μg mL-1) and showed that the synthesized ZAS, CMS and ZASCMS composite particles were non-toxic based on the evaluation of survivability, hatching rate and embryonic morphology. In conclusions, our results indicated that the synthesized composite exhibited their biological properties and antibacterial activity, which could well be a promising material with high potential to be applied in orthopaedic and dental tissue engineering.

Abstract
Purpose Large bone defects caused by congenital defects, infections, degenerative diseases, trauma, and tumors often require personalized shapes and rapid reconstruction of the bone tissue. Three-dimensional (3D)-printed bone tissue engineering scaffolds exhibit promising application potential. Fused deposition modeling (FDM) technology can flexibly select and prepare printed biomaterials and design and fabricate bionic microstructures to promote personalized large bone defect repair. FDM-3D printing technology was used to prepare polylactic acid (PLA)/nano β-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) composite bone tissue engineering scaffolds in this study. The ability of the bone-tissue-engineered scaffold to repair bone defects was evaluated in vivo and in vitro. Methods PLA/nano-TCP composite bone tissue engineering scaffolds were prepared using FDM-3D printing technology. The characterization data of the scaffolds were obtained using relevant detection methods. The physical and chemical properties, biocompatibility, and in vitro osteogenic capacity of the scaffolds were investigated, and their bone repair capacity was evaluated using an in vivo animal model of rabbit femur bone defects. Results The FDM-printed PLA/nano β-TCP composite scaffolds exhibited good personalized porosity and shape, and their osteogenic ability, biocompatibility, and bone repair ability in vivo were superior to those of pure PLA. The merits of biodegradable PLA and bioactive nano β-TCP ceramics were combined to improve the overall biological performance of the composites. Conclusion The FDM-printed PLA/nano-β-TCP composite scaffold with a ratio of 7:3 exhibited good personalized porosity and shape, as well as good osteogenic ability, biocompatibility, and bone repair ability. This study provides a promising strategy for treating large bone defects.

An in vitro assessment of biaxial flexural strength, degree of monomer conversion, color stability, and ion release in provisional restorations containing Sr-bioactive glass nanoparticles. Biomater Investig Dent 2023; 10:2265393. [PMID: 38204473 PMCID: PMC10763873 DOI: 10.1080/26415275.2023.2265393] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
This study examined the mechanical and chemical properties of an experimental provisional restoration containing Sr-bioactive glass nanoparticles (Sr-BGNPs) compared to commercial provisional materials. The experimental material (TempS10) contained dimethacrylate monomers with added 10 wt% Sr-BGNPs. The degree of monomer conversion (DC) of self-curing (n = 5), biaxial flexural strength (BFS)/modulus (BFM) (n = 5), and color changes (ΔE*00) of materials in red wine (n = 5) were determined. Additionally, ion release (Ca, P, and Sr) in water at 2 weeks was examined (n = 3). The commercial materials tested included polymethyl methacrylate-based provisional material (Unifast) and bis-acrylic materials (Protemp4 and Cooltemp). TempS10 exhibited a comparable degree of monomer conversion (49%) to that of Protemp4 (60%) and Cooltemp (54%) (p > 0.05). The DC of Unifast (81%) was significantly higher than that of other materials (p < 0.05). TempS10 showed a BFS (126 MPa) similar to Cooltemp (102 MPa) and Unifast (123 MPa), but lower than Protemp4 (194 MPa). The immersion time for 2 weeks exhibited no detrimental effect on the strength and modulus of all materials. The highest ΔE*00 at 24 h and 2 weeks was observed with TempS10, followed by Cooltemp, Unifast, and Protemp4. Only TempS10 showed a detectable amount of Ca (0.69 ppm), P (0.12 ppm), and Sr (3.01 ppm). The experimental provisional resin restoration containing Sr-BGNPs demonstrated polymerization and strength comparable to those of bis-acryl provisional restorations but with the added benefit of ion-releasing properties. However, the experimental material demonstrated unsatisfactory color stability.

Influence of mechanochemically fabricated nano-hardystonite reinforcement in polycaprolactone scaffold for potential use in bone tissue engineering: Synthesis and characterization. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2023; 146:106100. [PMID: 37660447 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2023.106100] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023]
Abstract
Bone tissue engineering (BTE) has gained significant attention for the regeneration of bone tissue, particularly for critical-size bone defects. The aim of this research was first to synthesize nanopowders of hardystonite (HT) through ball milling and then to manufacture composite scaffolds for BTE use out of polycaprolactone (PCL) containing 0, 3, 5, and 10 wt% HT by electrospinning method. The crystallite size of the synthesized HT nanopowders was 42.8 nm. including up to 5 wt% HT into PCL scaffolds resulted in significant improvements, such as a reduction in the fiber diameter from 186.457±15.74 to 150.021±21.99 nm, a decrease in porosity volume from 85.2±2.5 to 80.3±3.3 %, an improvement in the mechanical properties (ultimate tensile strength: 5.7±0.2 MPa, elongation: 47.5±3.5 %, tensile modulus: 32.7±0.9 MPa), an improvement in the hydrophilicity, and biodegradability. Notably, PCL/5%HT exhibited the maximum cell viability (194±14 %). Additionally, following a 4-week of submersion in simulated body fluid (SBF), the constructed PCL/HT composite scaffolds showed a remarkable capacity to stimulate the development of hydroxyapatite (HA), which increased significantly for the 5 wt% HT scaffolds. However, at 10 wt% HT, nanopowder agglomeration led to an increase in the fiber diameter and a decrease in the mechanical characteristics. Collectively, the PCL/5%HT composite scaffolds can therefore help with the regeneration of the critical-size bone defects and offer tremendous potential for BTE applications.

Abstract
Limitations associated with conventional bone substitutes such as autografts, increasing demand for bone grafts, and growing elderly population worldwide necessitate development of unique materials as bone graft substitutes. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) would ensure therapy advancement, efficiency, and cost-effective treatment modalities of bone defects. One way of engineering bone tissue scaffolds by mimicking natural bone tissue composed of organic and inorganic phases is to utilize polysaccharide-bioceramic hybrid composites. Polysaccharides are abundant in nature, and present in human body. Biominerals, like hydroxyapatite are present in natural bone and some of them possess osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. Ion doped bioceramics could substitute protein-based biosignal molecules to achieve osteogenesis, vasculogenesis, angiogenesis, and stress shielding. This review is a systemic summary on properties, advantages, and limitations of polysaccharide-bioceramic/ion doped bioceramic composites along with their recent advancements in BTE.

Abstract
Continuous microwave-assisted flow synthesis has been used as a simple, more efficient, and low-cost route to fabricate a range of nanosized (<100 nm) strontium-substituted calcium phosphates. In this study, fine nanopowder was synthesized via a continuous flow synthesis with microwave assistance from the solutions of calcium nitrate tetrahydrate (with strontium nitrate as Sr2+ ion source) and diammonium hydrogen phosphate at pH 10 with a time duration of 5 min. The morphological characterization of the obtained powder has been carried out by employing techniques such as transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area analysis. The chemical structural analysis to evaluate the surface properties was made by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Zeta potential analysis was performed to evaluate the colloidal stability of the particles. Antimicrobial studies were performed for all the compositions using four bacterial strains and an opportunistic human fungal pathogen Macrophomina phaseolina. It was found that the nanoproduct with high strontium content (15 wt% of strontium) showed pronounced antibacterial potential against M. luteus while it completely arrested the fungal growth after 48 h by all of its concentrations. Thus the synthesis strategy described herein facilitated the rapid production of nanosized Sr-substituted CaPs with excellent biological performance suitable for a bone replacement application.

Erbium-ytterbium containing upconversion mesoporous bioactive glass microspheres for tissue engineering: luminescence monitoring of biomineralization and drug release. Acta Biomater 2023; 168:628-636. [PMID: 37454706 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.07.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2023] [Revised: 07/11/2023] [Accepted: 07/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
The development of functional biomaterials with real-time monitoring of mineralization processes, drug release and biodistribution has potential applications but remains an unsolved challenge. Herein, erbium- and ytterbium- containing mesoporous bioactive glass microspheres (MBGs:Er/Yb) with blue and red emission at an excitation wavelength of 980 nm were synthesized by a sol-gel combined with organic template method. As the concentration of Yb3+ ions gradually increases, the emission intensity of the MBGs:Er/Yb exhibits a clear concentration quenching effect. Combined with in vitro bioactivity tests, the optimal molar ratio of Er3+/Yb3+ was determined to be 4:3. Therefore, MBGs:4Er/3Yb was selected for in vitro biomineralization and drug release monitoring. The results of biomineralization monitoring show that the upconversion luminescence intensity is closely related to the degree of biomineralization. The upconversion luminescence intensity of MBGs:4Er/3Yb is quenched with the increase of the degree of biomineralization. The degree of luminescence quenching during biomineralization can be semiquantized. Drug release monitoring experiments showed that the anticancer drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) was successfully loaded into MBGs:4Er/3Yb and selectively quenched the green emission. When DOX was released, the green emission recovered stably, and It/I0 increased gradually. Moreover, there was a linear relationship between It/I0 and cumulative drug release, indicating that DOX-MBGs:4Er/3Yb is highly sensitive to DOX release, and monitoring the It/I0 values of DOX-MBGs:4Er/3Yb can achieve real-time tracking of the DOX release process to a certain extent. In conclusion, MBGs:4Er/3Yb has potential application as an upconversion luminescence biomonitoring material in the field of bone tissue engineering. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Mesoporous bioactive glasses have great potential for applications in bone tissue repair due to their excellent biological properties, but the effective information of the repair process cannot be grasped in a timely manner. Therefore, real-time monitoring of mineralization and drug release processes will be beneficial to obtain the degree of healing and optimize the amount and distribution of drugs to improve targeted therapeutic effects. For biomaterials, in vitro biological properties determine their biological properties in vivo, where the environment is more complex and diverse, and thus in vitro biomonitoring is particularly crucial. The organic combination of physical properties and biological properties will also provide a feasible idea for the development of biomaterials.

Abstract
This prospective cohort study aimed to assess long-term safety, dental implant survival, and clinical and radiological outcomes after maxillary sinus floor elevation (MSFE; lateral window technique) using freshly isolated autologous stromal vascular fraction (SVF) combined with calcium phosphate ceramics. All 10 patients previously participating in a phase I trial were included in a 10-year follow-up. They received either β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP; n = 5) or biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP; n = 5) with SVF-supplementation on one side (study). Bilaterally treated patients (6 of 10; 3 β-TCP, 3 BCP) received only calcium phosphate on the opposite side (control). Clinical and radiological assessments were performed on 44 dental implants at 1-month pre-MSFE, and 0.5- to 10-year post-MSFE. Implants were placed 6 months post-MSFE. No adverse events or pathology was reported during a 10-year follow-up. Forty-three dental implants (98%) remained functional. Control and study sides showed similar peri-implant soft-tissue quality, sulcus bleeding index, probing depth, plaque index, keratinized mucosa width, as well as marginal bone loss (0-6 mm), graft height loss (0-6 mm), and graft volume reduction. Peri-implantitis was observed around 6 implants (control: 4; study: 2) in 3 patients. This study is the first to demonstrate the 10-year safety of SVF-supplementation in MSFE for jawbone reconstruction. SVF-supplementation showed enhanced bone regeneration in the short term (previous study) and led to no abnormalities clinically and radiologically in the long term.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to develop enamel substitute material using a mechanochemical technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS Hydroxyapatite was synthesized with and without tricalcium phosphate under uniaxial pressing of 10 and 17 MPa (HA10, HA17, BCP10, and BCP17), followed by sintering at 1250 °C for 2 h. Human enamel and dentin blocks were used as control groups. The mechanical properties were determined by compressive strength test and Vickers microhardness. The data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA and LSD post-hoc test (α = 0.05). The phase formation and morphology of the specimens were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). RESULTS HA17 and HA10 had compressive strength values comparable to enamel and dentin, respectively (p > 0.05). The microhardness of all synthesized groups was significantly higher than that of tooth structures (p < 0.05). From the XRD graphs, only the hydroxyapatite peak was observed in the control and HA groups. SEM images showed homogeneous hydroxyapatite grains in all groups, while the BCP groups contained higher porosities. CONCLUSIONS Both HA10 and HA17 are suitable for use as the inorganic part of dentin and enamel substitutes.

Abstract
The regeneration of hierarchical osteochondral units is challenging due to difficulties in inducing spatial, directional and controllable differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into cartilage and bone compartments. Emerging organoid technology offers new opportunities for osteochondral regeneration. In this study, we developed gelatin-based microcryogels customized using hyaluronic acid (HA) and hydroxyapatite (HYP), respectively for inducing cartilage and bone regeneration (denoted as CH-Microcryogels and OS-Microcryogels) through in vivo self-assembly into osteochondral organoids. The customized microcryogels showed good cytocompatibility and induced chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation of MSCs, while also demonstrating the ability to self-assemble into osteochondral organoids with no delamination in the biphasic cartilage-bone structure. Analysis by mRNA-seq showed that CH-Microcryogels promoted chondrogenic differentiation and inhibited inflammation, while OS-Microcryogels facilitated osteogenic differentiation and suppressed the immune response, by regulating specific signaling pathways. Finally, the in vivo engraftment of pre-differentiated customized microcryogels into canine osteochondral defects resulted in the spontaneous assembly of an osteochondral unit, inducing simultaneous regeneration of both articular cartilage and subchondral bone. In conclusion, this novel approach for generating self-assembling osteochondral organoids utilizing tailor-made microcryogels presents a highly promising avenue for advancing the field of tissue engineering.

Abstract
Age-related musculoskeletal disorders, including osteoporosis, are frequent and associated with long lasting morbidity, in turn significantly impacting on healthcare system sustainability. There is therefore a compelling need to develop reliable preclinical models of disease and drug screening to validate novel drugs possibly on a personalized basis, without the need ofin vivoassay. In the context of bone tissue, although the osteocyte (Oc) network is a well-recognized therapeutic target, currentin vitropreclinical models are unable to mimic its physiologically relevant and highly complex structure. To this purpose, several features are needed, including an osteomimetic extracellular matrix, dynamic perfusion, and mechanical cues (e.g. shear stress) combined with a three-dimensional (3D) culture of Oc. Here we describe, for the first time, a high throughput microfluidic platform based on 96-miniaturized chips for large-scale preclinical evaluation to predict drug efficacy. We bioengineered a commercial microfluidic device that allows real-time visualization and equipped with multi-chips by the development and injection of a highly stiff bone-like 3D matrix, made of a blend of collagen-enriched natural hydrogels loaded with hydroxyapatite nanocrystals. The microchannel, filled with the ostemimetic matrix and Oc, is subjected to passive perfusion and shear stress. We used scanning electron microscopy for preliminary material characterization. Confocal microscopy and fluorescent microbeads were used after material injection into the microchannels to detect volume changes and the distribution of cell-sized objects within the hydrogel. The formation of a 3D dendritic network of Oc was monitored by measuring cell viability, evaluating phenotyping markers (connexin43, integrin alpha V/CD51, sclerostin), quantification of dendrites, and responsiveness to an anabolic drug. The platform is expected to accelerate the development of new drug aimed at modulating the survival and function of osteocytes.

Abstract
Osteochondral defects are caused by injury to both the articular cartilage and subchondral bone within skeletal joints. They can lead to irreversible joint damage and increase the risk of progression to osteoarthritis. Current treatments for osteochondral injuries are not curative and only target symptoms, highlighting the need for a tissue engineering solution. Scaffold-based approaches can be used to assist osteochondral tissue regeneration, where biomaterials tailored to the properties of cartilage and bone are used to restore the defect and minimise the risk of further joint degeneration. This review captures original research studies published since 2015, on multiphasic scaffolds used to treat osteochondral defects in animal models. These studies used an extensive range of biomaterials for scaffold fabrication, consisting mainly of natural and synthetic polymers. Different methods were used to create multiphasic scaffold designs, including by integrating or fabricating multiple layers, creating gradients, or through the addition of factors such as minerals, growth factors, and cells. The studies used a variety of animals to model osteochondral defects, where rabbits were the most commonly chosen and the vast majority of studies reported small rather than large animal models. The few available clinical studies reporting cell-free scaffolds have shown promising early-stage results in osteochondral repair, but long-term follow-up is necessary to demonstrate consistency in defect restoration. Overall, preclinical studies of multiphasic scaffolds show favourable results in simultaneously regenerating cartilage and bone in animal models of osteochondral defects, suggesting that biomaterials-based tissue engineering strategies may be a promising solution.

MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:6025. [PMID: 37687718 PMCID: PMC10489148 DOI: 10.3390/ma16176025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023]
Abstract
β-tricalcium phosphate has good biodegradability and biocompatibility; it is widely perceived as a good material for treating bone deficiency. In this research, different contents of strontium (Sr) and silver (Ag) ion-doped β-tricalcium phosphate powders were prepared using the sol-gel method. After obtaining the best ratio of pore-forming agent and binder, the as-synthesized powders were sintered in a muffle for 5 h at 1000 °C to obtain the samples. Then, these samples were degraded in vitro in simulated body fluids. The samples were tested using a series of characterization methods before and after degradation. Results showed that the amount of Sr and/or Ag doping had an effect on the crystallinity and structural parameters of the samples. After degradation, though the compressive strength of these samples decreased overall, the compressive strength of the undoped samples was higher than that of the doped samples. Notably, apatite-like materials were observed on the surface of the samples. All the results indicate that Sr and/or Ag β-TCP has good osteogenesis and proper mechanical properties; it will be applied as a prospective biomaterial in the area of bone repair.

Abstract
Mineral particles that form in soft tissues in association with disease conditions are heterogeneous in their composition and physiochemical properties. Hence, it is challenging to study the effect of mineral type on disease progression in a high-throughput and realistic manner. For example, most early breast precancer lesions, termed ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), contain microcalcifications (MCs), calcium-containing pathological minerals. The most common type of MCs is calcium phosphate crystals, mainly carbonated apatite; it is associated with either benign or malignant lesions. In vitro studies indicate that the crystal properties of apatite MCs can affect breast cancer progression. A less common type of MCs is calcium oxalate dihydrate (COD), which is almost always found in benign lesions. We developed a 3D tumor model of multicellular spheroids of human precancer cells containing synthetic MC analogs that link the crystal properties of MCs with the progression of breast precancer to invasive cancer. Using this 3D model, we show that apatite crystals induce Her2 overexpression in DCIS cells. This tumor-triggering effect is increased when the carbonate fraction in the MCs decreases. COD crystals, in contrast, decrease Her2 expression in the spheroids, even compared with a control group with no added MC analogs. Furthermore, COD decreases cell proliferation and migration in DCIS monolayers compared to untreated cells and cells incubated with apatite crystals. This finding suggests that COD is not randomly located only in benign lesions-it may actively contribute to suppressing precancer progression in its surroundings. Our model provides an easy-to-manipulate platform to better understand the interactions between mineral particles and their biological microenvironment. A better understanding of the effect of the crystal properties of MCs on precancer progression will potentially provide new directions for better precancer prognosis and treatment.

Abstract
Propose This study aimed to describe the design and surgical techniques of a three-dimensional (3D) printed strut-type prosthesis with a porous titanium surface for distal femur giant cell tumors of bone (GCTB) and evaluate the short-term clinical outcomes. Methods From June 2018 to January 2021, 9 consecutive patients with grade I or II GCTB in the distal femur underwent extended intralesional curettage followed by 3D-printed strut-type prosthesis combined with autograft reconstruction were retrospectively reviewed to assess their clinical and radiographic outcomes. Results All patients were followed up for 30.8 ± 7.5 months (18-42 months) after surgery. The mean affected subchondral bone percentage and the mean subchondral bone thickness before surgery was 31.8% ± 9.6% (range, 18.2% ~50.2%) and 2.2 ± 0.8 mm (range, 1.2-4.0 mm), respectively. At the final follow-up, all the patients were alive without local recurrence; no postoperative complications were observed. Patients had significant improvements in postoperative MSTS-93 score [(26.7 ± 2.4) vs. (18.8 ± 3.7), P < 0.05], and ROM [(122.8° ± 9.1°) vs. (108.3° ± 6.1°), P < 0.05] compared with their preoperative statuses. Furthermore, the mean subchondral bone thickness has increased to 10.9 ± 1.3 mm (range, 9.1-12.1 mm). Conclusion 3D-printed strut-type prosthesis combined with autograft reconstruction provides acceptable early functional and radiographic outcomes in patients with grade I or II GCTB in distal femur due to the advantages of the prosthesis such as good biocompatibility, osseointegration capacity, and subchondral bone protection. If our early outcomes can be further validated in studies with more patients and sufficient follow-up, this method may be evaluated as an alternative for the treatment of grade I or II GCTB in the distal femur.

Theranostics 2023; 13:4512-4525. [PMID: 37649612 PMCID: PMC10465219 DOI: 10.7150/thno.85946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Mineral particles have been widely used in bone tissue engineering scaffolds due to their osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. Despite their benefits, mineral particles can induce undesirable inflammation and subsequent bone resorption. Aspirin (Asp) is an inexpensive and widely used anti-inflammatory drug. The goal of this study is to assess the synergistic effect of Asp and optimized mineral particle coating in macroporous scaffolds to accelerate endogenous bone regeneration and reduce bone resorption in a critical-sized bone defect model. Methods: Four commonly used mineral particles with varying composition (hydroxyapatite v.s. tricalcium phosphate) and size (nano v.s. micro) were used. Mineral particles were coated onto gelatin microribbon (µRB) scaffolds. Macrophages (Mφ) were cultured on gelatin µRB scaffolds containing various particles, and Mφ polarization was assessed using PCR and ELISA. The effect of conditioned medium from Mφ on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) osteogenesis was also evaluated in vitro. Scaffolds containing optimized mineral particles were then combined with varying dosages of Asp to assess the effect in inducing endogenous bone regeneration using a critical-sized cranial bone defect model. In vivo characterization and in vitro cell studies were performed to elucidate the effect of tuning Asp dosage on Mφ polarization, osteoclast (OC) activity, and MSC osteogenesis. Results: Micro-sized tricalcium phosphate (mTCP) particles were identified as optimal in promoting M2 Mφ polarization and rescuing MSC-based bone formation in the presence of conditioned medium from Mφ. When implanted in vivo, incorporating Asp with mTCP-coated µRB scaffolds significantly accelerated endogenous bone formation in a dose-dependent manner. Impressively, mTCP-coated µRB scaffolds containing 20 µg Asp led to almost complete bone healing of a critical-sized cranial bone defect as early as week 2 with no subsequent bone resorption. Asp enhanced M2 Mφ polarization, decreased OC activity, and promoted MSC osteogenesis in a dosage-dependent manner in vivo. These results were further validated using in vitro cell studies. Conclusions: Here, we demonstrate Asp and mineral particle-coated microribbon scaffold provides a promising therapy for repairing critical-sized cranial bone defects via immunomodulation. The leading formulation supports rapid endogenous bone regeneration without the need for exogenous cells or growth factors, making it attractive for translation. Our results also highlight the importance of optimizing mineral particles and Asp dosage to achieve robust bone healing while avoiding bone resorption by targeting Mφ and OCs.

Abstract
A novel composite based on biocompatible hydroxyapatite (HA) nanoparticles and Cu-HKUST-1 (Cu-HKUST-1@HA) has been prepared following a layer-by-layer strategy. Cu-HKUST-1 was carefully selected from a group of four Cu-based metal-organic frameworks as the material with the most promising antimicrobial activity. The formation of a colloidal Cu-HKUST-1 layer on HA nanoparticles was confirmed by various techniques, e.g., infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, N2 sorption, transmission electron microscopy imaging, electron paramagnetic resonance, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Importantly, such a Cu-HKUST-1 layer significantly improved the nanomechanical properties of the composite, with Young's modulus equal to that of human cortical bone (13.76 GPa). At the same time, Cu-HKUST-1@HA has maintained the negative zeta potential (-16.3 mV in pH 7.4) and revealed biocompatibility toward human dermal fibroblasts up to a concentration of 1000 μg/mL, without inducing ex vivo hemolysis. Chemical stability studies of the composite over 21 days in a buffer-simulated physiological fluid allowed a detailed understanding of the transformations that the Cu-HKUST-1@HA undergoes over time. Finally, it has been confirmed that the Cu-HKUST-1 layer provides antibacterial properties to HA, and the synergism reached in this way makes it promising for bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Aligned pore structures present many advantages when conceiving biomaterial strategies for treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. Aligned ice templating (AIT) is one of the many different techniques capable of producing anisotropic porous scaffolds; its high versatility allows for the formation of structures with tunable pore sizes, as well as the use of many different materials. AIT has been found to yield improved compressive properties for bone tissue engineering (BTE), as well as higher tensile strength and optimized cellular alignment and proliferation in tendon and muscle repair applications. This review evaluates the work that has been done in the last decade toward the production of aligned pore structures by AIT with an outlook on the musculoskeletal system. This work describes the fundamentals of the AIT technique and focuses on the research carried out to optimize the biomechanical properties of scaffolds by modifying the pore structure, categorizing by material type and application. Related topics including growth factor incorporation into AIT scaffolds, drug delivery applications, and studies about immune system response will be discussed.

Abstract
α-tricalcium (α-TCP) phosphate is widely used as an osteoinductive biocompatible material, serving as an alternative to synthetic porous bone materials. The objective of this study is to obtain a highly filled fibrous nonwoven material composed of poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) and α-TCP and to investigate the morphology, structure, and properties of the composite obtained by the electrospinning method (ES). The addition of α-TCP had a significant effect on the supramolecular structure of the material, allowing it to control the crystallinity of the material, which was accompanied by changes in mechanical properties, FTIR spectra, and XRD curves. The obtained results open the way to the creation of new osteoconductive materials with a controlled release of the source of calcium into the living organism.

Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:2025. [PMID: 37631239 PMCID: PMC10459076 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15082025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 07/21/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Hydroxyapatite-gelatin microspheres with cone-like pores were synthesized via the wet-chemical method using ammonium dihydrogen phosphate ((NH4)H2PO4) and calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2·4H2O) as a source of calcium and phosphate ions with the addition of gelatin, which proved to be more osteoconductive than commercial products, such as fibrin glue and Osteoset® Bone Graft Substitute. Following the method of the previous study for loading paclitaxel (PTX), a drug entrapment efficiency of around 58% was achieved, which is much lower than that of the doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded one. Since PTX is hydrophobic while DOX is hydrophilic, the order of chitosan processing and addition of the solvent were tuned in this study, finally leading to an increase in drug entrapment efficiency of 94%. Additionally, the release duration of PTX exceeded six months. The MTT assay indicated that the effect of drug release on the suppression of cancer cells reached more than 40% after one week, thereby showcasing PTX's capacity to carry out its medicinal functions without being affected by the loading procedures.
