Surface functionalization of calcium magnesium phosphate cements with alginate sodium for enhanced bone regeneration via TRPM7/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:130998. [PMID: 38521332 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130998] [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: 01/06/2024] [Revised: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/17/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Although calcium‑magnesium phosphate cements (CMPCs) have been widely applied to treating critical-size bone defects, their repair efficiency is unsatisfactory owing to their weak surface bioactivity and uncontrolled ion release. In this study, we lyophilized alginate sodium (AS) as a coating onto HAp/K-struvite (H@KSv) to develop AS/HAp/K-struvite (AH@KSv), which promotes bone regeneration. The compressive strength and hydrophilicity of AH@KSv significantly improved, leading to enhanced cell adhesion in vitro. Importantly, the SA coating enables continuous ions release of Mg2+ and Ca2+, finally leading to enhanced osteogenesis in vitro/vivo and different patterns of new bone ingrowth in vivo. Furthermore, these composites increased the expression levels of biomarkers of the TRPM7/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway via an equilibrium effect of Mg2+ to Ca2+. In conclusion, our study provides novel insights into the mechanisms of Mg-based biomaterials for bone regeneration.

Naringin-induced M2 macrophage polarization facilitates osteogenesis of BMSCs and improves cranial bone defect healing in rat. Arch Biochem Biophys 2024; 753:109890. [PMID: 38246327 DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2024.109890] [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: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
Osteoimmunology has uncovered the critical role of the immune microenvironment in the bone healing process, with macrophages playing a central part in generating immune responses via chemokine production. Naringin, a flavanone glycoside extracted from various plants, has been shown to promote osteoblast differentiation, thereby enhancing bone formation and mitigating osteoporosis progression. Current research on the osteogenic mechanism primarily focuses on the direct impact of naringin on mesenchymal stem cells, while its indirect immunoregulatory effects remain elusive. In this study, we investigated the bone defect-enhancing effects of varying naringin concentrations in vivo using a cranial bone defect model in Sprague-Dawley rats. We assessed the osteoimmune modulation capacity of naringin by exposing lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 macrophages to different doses of naringin. To further elucidate the underlying osteogenic enhancement mechanism, Bone Marrow Stromal Cells (BMSCs) derived from mice were treated with conditioned media from naringin-treated macrophages. Our findings indicated that naringin promotes M2 phenotype polarization in macrophages, as evidenced by the downregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase (iNOS), interleukin (IL)-1β, and Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-α, and the upregulation of anti-inflammatory cytokine Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β. Transcriptome analysis revealed that differentially expressed genes were significantly enriched in osteoblast differentiation and anti-inflammatory response pathways in naringin-pretreated macrophages, with the cytokines signaling pathway being upregulated. The conditioned media from naringin-treated macrophages stimulated the expression of osteogenic-related genes Alkaline phosphatase (Alp), osteocalcin (Ocn), osteopontin (Opn), and Runt-related transcription factor (Runx) 2, as well as protein expression in BMSCs. In conclusion, naringin alleviates macrophage inflammation by promoting M2 phenotype polarization, which in turn enhances the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, contributing to its bone healing effects in vivo. These results suggest that naringin holds significant potential for improving bone defect healing through osteoimmune modulation.

Isoliquiritin treatment of osteoporosis by promoting osteogenic differentiation and autophagy of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Phytother Res 2024; 38:214-230.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a chronic progressive bone disease characterized by the decreased osteogenic ability of osteoblasts coupled with increased osteoclast activity. Natural products showing promising therapeutic potential for postmenopausal osteoporosis remain underexplored. In this study, we aimed to analyze the therapeutic effects of isoliquiritin (ISL) on osteoporosis in mice and its possible mechanism of action. An ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis mouse model and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were used to analyze the effects of ISL on bone regeneration in vivo and in vitro, respectively. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and autophagy inhibitors were used, to investigate whether the MAPK signaling pathway and autophagy affect the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. ISL significantly improved bone formation and reduced bone resorption in mouse femurs without inducing any detectable toxicity in critical organs such as the liver, kidney, brain, heart, and spleen. In vitro experiments showed that ISL enhanced the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and that its osteogenic effect was attenuated by p38/extracellular regulated protein kinase (ERK) and autophagy inhibitors. Further studies showed that the inhibition of phosphorylated p38/ERK blocked ISL autophagy in BMSCs. ISL promoted the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs through the p38/ERK-autophagy pathway and was therapeutically effective in treating osteoporosis in ovariectomized mice without any observed toxicity to vital organs. These results strongly suggest the promising potential of ISL as a safe and efficacious candidate drug for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
The skeleton is a highly innervated organ in which nerve fibers interact with various skeletal cells. Peripheral nerve endings release neurogenic factors and sense skeletal signals, which mediate bone metabolism and skeletal pain. In recent years, bone tissue engineering has increasingly focused on the effects of the nervous system on bone regeneration. Simultaneous regeneration of bone and nerves through the use of materials or by the enhancement of endogenous neurogenic repair signals has been proven to promote functional bone regeneration. Additionally, emerging information on the mechanisms of skeletal interoception and the central nervous system regulation of bone homeostasis provide an opportunity for advancing biomaterials. However, comprehensive reviews of this topic are lacking. Therefore, this review provides an overview of the relationship between nerves and bone regeneration, focusing on tissue engineering applications. We discuss novel regulatory mechanisms and explore innovative approaches based on nerve-bone interactions for bone regeneration. Finally, the challenges and future prospects of this field are briefly discussed.

Abstract
Background As current ethical codes preclude determining whether the clinical improvements obtained with the use of three-dimensional (3D)-printed scaffolds represent true periodontal regeneration, the histological proof of evidence for regeneration must be demonstrated in animal models. Thus, this systematic review investigated the regenerative potential of 3D-printed scaffolds in animal models of periodontal defects. Materials and Methods A systematic search was performed in four databases (Medline, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus) to identify preclinical controlled studies that investigated the use of 3D-printed scaffolds for periodontal regeneration. Studies limited to periodontal defects treated with 3D scaffolds were eligible for inclusion. The primary outcome was periodontal regeneration, assessed histologically as new bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament (PDL). This systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Quality was assessed according to the SRYCLE score. Results Six studies met the inclusion criteria. Scaffolds were designed using computer-aided design software. While the absence of a scaffold resulted in defects repaired mainly with fibrous connective tissue, the use of nonguiding 3D scaffolds promoted some bone formation. Notably, the regeneration of cementum and functional PDL fibers perpendicularly inserted into the root surface and the alveolar bone was limited to the defects treated with multi-compartment fiber-guiding or ion-containing 3D scaffolds. Nevertheless, the quality of the evidence was limited due to the unclear risk of bias. Conclusions Despite the limitations of the available evidence, the current data suggest that the use of printed multi-compartment fiber-guiding or ion-containing 3D scaffolds improves periodontal regeneration in animal models.

Abstract
Osteomyelitis, caused by purulent bacteria invading bone tissue, often occurs in long bones and seriously affects the physical and mental health and working ability of patients; it can even endanger life. However, due to bone cavity structure, osteomyelitis tends to occur inside the bone and thus lacks an effective treatment; anti-inflammatory treatment and repair of bone defects are necessary. Here, we developed injectable hydrogel microspheres loaded with naringin and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, which have anti-inflammatory and osteogenic properties. These homogeneous microspheres, ranging from 200 to 1000μm, can be rapidly fabricated using an electro-assisted bio-fabrication method. Interestingly, it was found that microspheres with relatively small diameters (200μm) were more conducive to the initial cell attachment, growth, spread, and later osteogenic differentiation. The developed microspheres can effectively treat tibial osteomyelitis in rats within six weeks, proving their prospects for clinical application.

Abstract
In recent years, hydrogels have been widely used in the biomedical field as materials with excellent bionic structures and biological properties. Among them, the excellent comprehensive properties of natural polymer hydrogels represented by sodium alginate have attracted the great attention of researchers. At the same time, by physically blending sodium alginate with other materials, the problems of poor cell adhesion and mechanical properties of sodium alginate hydrogels were directly improved without chemical modification of sodium alginate. The composite blending of multiple materials can also improve the functionality of sodium alginate hydrogels, and the prepared composite hydrogel also has a larger application field. In addition, based on the adjustable viscosity of sodium alginate-based hydrogels, sodium alginate-based hydrogels can be loaded with cells to prepare biological ink, and the scaffold can be printed out by 3D printing technology for the repair of bone defects. This paper first summarizes the improvement of the properties of sodium alginate and other materials after physical blending. Then, it summarizes the application progress of sodium alginate-based hydrogel scaffolds for bone tissue repair based on 3D printing technology in recent years. Moreover, we provide relevant opinions and comments to provide a theoretical basis for follow-up research.

Abstract
Conventional intake of drugs and active substances is most often based on oral intake of an appropriate dose to achieve the desired effect in the affected area or source of pain. In this case, controlling their distribution in the body is difficult, as the substance also reaches other tissues. This phenomenon results in the occurrence of side effects and the need to increase the concentration of the therapeutic substance to ensure it has the desired effect. The scientific field of tissue engineering proposes a solution to this problem, which creates the possibility of designing intelligent systems for delivering active substances precisely to the site of disease conversion. The following review discusses significant current research strategies as well as examples of polymeric and composite carriers for protein and non-protein biomolecules designed for bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Angiogenesis is a biological process in which resting endothelial cells start proliferating, migrating and forming new blood vessels. Angiogenesis is particularly important in the repair of bone tissue defects. Naringin (NG) is the main active monomeric component of traditional Chinese medicine, which has various biological activities, such as anti-osteoporosis, anti-inflammatory, blood activation and microcirculation improvement. At present, the mechanism of naringin in the process of angiogenesis is not clear. PIWI protein-interacting RNA (piRNA) is a small noncoding RNA (sncRNA) that has the functions of regulating protein synthesis, regulating the structure of chromatin and the genome, stabilizing mRNA and others. Several studies have demonstrated that piRNAs can mediate the angiogenesis process. Whether naringin can interfere with the process of angiogenesis by regulating piRNAs and related target genes deserves further exploration. Thus, the purpose of this study was to validate the potential angiogenic and bone regeneration properties and related mechanisms of naringin both in vivo and in vitro.

Three-Dimensional Impression of Biomaterials for Alveolar Graft: Scoping Review. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:jfb14020076. [PMID: 36826875 PMCID: PMC9961517 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14020076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 01/22/2023] [Accepted: 01/26/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Craniofacial bone defects are one of the biggest clinical challenges in regenerative medicine, with secondary autologous bone grafting being the gold-standard technique. The development of new three-dimensional matrices intends to overcome the disadvantages of the gold-standard method. The aim of this paper is to put forth an in-depth review regarding the clinical efficiency of available 3D printed biomaterials for the correction of alveolar bone defects. A survey was carried out using the following databases: PubMed via Medline, Cochrane Library, Scopus, Web of Science, EMBASE, and gray literature. The inclusion criteria applied were the following: in vitro, in vivo, ex vivo, and clinical studies; and studies that assessed bone regeneration resorting to 3D printed biomaterials. The risk of bias of the in vitro and in vivo studies was performed using the guidelines for the reporting of pre-clinical studies on dental materials by Faggion Jr and the SYRCLE risk of bias tool, respectively. In total, 92 publications were included in the final sample. The most reported three-dimensional biomaterials were the PCL matrix, β-TCP matrix, and hydroxyapatite matrix. These biomaterials can be combined with different polymers and bioactive molecules such as rBMP-2. Most of the included studies had a high risk of bias. Despite the advances in the research on new three-dimensionally printed biomaterials in bone regeneration, the existing results are not sufficient to justify the application of these biomaterials in routine clinical practice.

Abstract
Bone defects caused by various factors may cause morphological and functional disorders that can seriously affect patient's quality of life. Autologous bone grafting is morbid, involves numerous complications, and provides limited volume at donor site. Hence, tissue-engineered bone is a better alternative for repair of bone defects and for promoting a patient's functional recovery. Besides good biocompatibility, scaffolding materials represented by hydroxyapatite (HA) composites in tissue-engineered bone also have strong ability to guide bone regeneration. The development of manufacturing technology and advances in material science have made HA composite scaffolding more closely related to the composition and mechanical properties of natural bone. The surface morphology and pore diameter of the scaffold material are more important for cell proliferation, differentiation, and nutrient exchange. The degradation rate of the composite scaffold should match the rate of osteogenesis, and the loading of cells/cytokine is beneficial to promote the formation of new bone. In conclusion, there is no doubt that a breakthrough has been made in composition, mechanical properties, and degradation of HA composites. Biomimetic tissue-engineered bone based on vascularization and innervation show a promising future.

Estradiol and zinc-doped nano hydroxyapatite as therapeutic agents in the prevention of osteoporosis; oxidative stress status, inflammation, bone turnover, bone mineral density, and histological alterations in ovariectomized rats. Front Physiol 2022; 13:989487. [PMID: 36200054 PMCID: PMC9527315 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2022.989487] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is a serious health problem, and the most popular therapeutic strategy for OP is hormone replacement (estrogen); however, it increases the risk of reproductive cancers. Hydroxyapatite (HA) nanoparticles have a similar chemical structure to the bone mineral component and can be used as a new remedy for OP. This study was designed to investigate the osteoporosis-protective potential of nano zinc hydroxyapatite (ZnHA-NPs) and/or estradiol (E2) combined therapy. A total of 35 adult female rats were assigned into five groups (n = 7): 1) control group; 2) ovariectomized group (OVX); 3) OVX received oral estradiol replacement therapy (OVX/E2); 4) OVX received ZnHA replacement therapy (OVX/ZnHA); and 5) OVX received both estradiol and ZnHA-NPs combined therapy (OVX/E2+ZnHA). After 3 months of treatment, serum bone markers and estrogen level, oxidative/antioxidant, and inflammatory cytokines were determined. Additionally, femoral expression of estrogen receptors alpha and beta (ESR1; ESR2), receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (RANKL) ligand, osteoprotegerin (OPG), bone mineral density (BMD), histological alterations, and immunohistochemical expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were assessed. ALP, PINP, Ca, and P concentrations improved significantly (p < 0.05) in all treatment groups, especially in the OVX/E + ZnHA group. MDA and NO were higher in OVX rats, while SOD activity and GSH were lower (p < 0.05). E2 alone or with ZnHA-NPs restored the estimated antioxidant molecules and cytokines toward normal levels in OVX rats (p < 0.05). On the other hand, E2 and ZnHA increased OPG and OC expression in femurs while decreasing ESR1, ESR2, and NF-kB expression (p < 0.05). The combination treatment was superior in the restoration of normal femoral histoarchitecture and both cortical and trabecular BMD (p < 0.05). Overall, the combined therapy of OVX/E2+ZnHA was more effective than the individual treatments in attenuating excessive bone turnover and preventing osteoporosis.

Abstract
Tissue engineering is a rapidly evolving, multidisciplinary field that aims at generating or regenerating 3D functional tissues for in vitro disease modeling and drug screening applications or for in vivo therapies. A variety of advanced biological and engineering methods are increasingly being used to further enhance and customize the functionality of tissue engineered scaffolds. To this end, tunable drug delivery and release mechanisms are incorporated into tissue engineering modalities to promote different therapeutic processes, thus, addressing challenges faced in the clinical applications. In this review, we elaborate the mechanisms and recent developments in different drug delivery vehicles, including the quantum dots, nano/micro particles, and molecular agents. Different loading strategies to incorporate the therapeutic reagents into the scaffolding structures are explored. Further, we discuss the main mechanisms to tune and monitor/quantify the release kinetics of embedded drugs from engineered scaffolds. We also survey the current trend of drug delivery using stimuli driven biopolymer scaffolds to enable precise spatiotemporal control of the release behavior. Recent advancements, challenges facing current scaffold-based drug delivery approaches, and areas of future research are discussed.

Abstract
One of the possible alternatives for creating materials for the regeneration of bone tissue supporting comprehensive reconstruction is the incorporation of active substances whose controlled release will improve this process. This systematic review aimed to identify and synthesize in vitro studies that assess the suitability of polyphenolics as additives to polymer-ceramic composite bone regeneration materials. Data on experimental studies in terms of the difference in mechanical, wettability, cytocompatibility, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of materials were synthesized. The obtained numerical data were compiled and analyzed in search of percentage changes of these parameters. The results of the systematic review were based on data from forty-six studies presented in nineteen articles. The addition of polyphenolic compounds to composite materials for bone regeneration improved the cytocompatibility and increased the activity of early markers of osteoblast differentiation, indicating a high osteoinductive potential of the materials. Polyphenolic compounds incorporated into the materials presumably give them high antioxidant properties and reduce the production of reactive oxygen species in macrophage cells, implying anti-inflammatory activity. The evidence was limited by the number of missing data and the heterogeneity of the data.

Abstract
Protein delivery and release from synthetic scaffold materials are major challenges within the field of bone tissue engineering. In this study, 13-93B1.5 borosilicate bioactive glass (BSG) base paste was 3D printed to produce BSG-based scaffolds with high porosity (59.85 ± 6.04%) and large pore sizes (350-400 μm) for functionalization with a sodium alginate (SA)/calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) hydrogel mixture. SA/CGRP hydrogel was uniformly filled into the interconnected pores of 3D printed BSG constructs to produce BSG-SA/CGRP scaffolds which were subject to bioactivity and biocompatibility analysis. BSG scaffolds filled with SA hydrogel underwent dissolution in simulated body fluid (SBF), resulting in the precipitation of hydroxyapatite (HA) on the borosilicate glass evidenced by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Around 90% of CGRP was released from scaffolds after 7 days of immersion in SBF, reaching a final released concentration of 893.00 ± 63.30 ng/mL. Cellular adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (HBMSCs) cultured with BSG-SA/CGRP scaffolds revealed improved biocompatibility and osteogenic capabilities compared with BSG-SA scaffolds in the absence of CGRP. When subcutaneously implanted in rat models, BSG-SA/CGRP scaffolds induced low localized inflammation without causing bodily harm in vivo. Findings revealed that bioactive glass scaffolds incorporating CGRP met the scaffold requirements for bone regeneration and that the addition of CGRP promoted osteogenic differentiation where it may potentially be utilized for future regenerative applications.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the repair effect of the prepared drug-loaded AM1241 poly(ethylene glycol)–dithiothreitol (PEG-DTT) hydrogel on cranial bone defects in SD rats. Methods: The PEG-DTT hydrogel under borax catalysis was quickly prepared, and the characterization of the material was observed by a scanning electron microscope. The effect of AM1241 on cell activity and bone tissue differentiation was tested. The SD rat model of cranial bone defect was established, and the defect was repaired by injecting the prepared hydrogel into the defect. The defect was divided into four groups, namely, sham group, blank group, PEG-DTT group, and PEG-DTT + AM1241 group. The rats were euthanized, and whole cranial bone was taken out for micro-CT and histological observation. Results: The prepared hydrogel is porous; it is liquid when heated to 80°C and a hydrogel when cooled to 25°C. 5–10 μM AM1241 increased osteoblast activity. A moderate amount of AM1241 can promote osteogenic differentiation. Both the PEG-DTT group and PEG-DTT + AM1241 group showed obvious new bone tissue formation, but the PEG-DTT + AM1241 group had a better effect. In addition, the new bone tissue in the PEG-DTT + AM1241 group was significantly more than that in the other groups. Conclusion: The prepared AM1241-loaded PEG-DTT hydrogel showed a good repair effect on SD rats with cranial bone defects. It can be used as materials for cranial bone repair in SD rats with cranial bone defects, but the repair effect is weaker than that of normal bone. These results provide a theoretical and practical basis for its further clinical application.

Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study is to compare the bone induction of five kinds of calcium phosphate (Ca-P) biomaterials implanted in mice and explore the vascularization and particle-size-related osteoinductive mechanism. Methods: The following five kinds of Ca-P biomaterials including hydroxyapatite (HA) and/or tricalcium phosphate (TCP) were implanted in the muscle of 30 BALB/c mice (n = 6): 20 nm HA (20HA), 60 nm HA (60HA), 12 µm HA (12HA), 100 nm TCP (100TCP) and 12 µm HA + 100 nm TCP (HATCP). Then, all animals were put on a treadmill to run 30 min at a 6 m/h speed each day. Five and ten weeks later, three mice of each group were killed, and the samples were harvested to assess the osteoinductive effects by hematoxylin eosin (HE), Masson’s trichrome and safranine−fast green stainings, and the immunohistochemistry of the angiogenesis and osteogenesis markers CD31 and type I collagen (ColI). Results: The numbers of blood vessels were 139 ± 29, 118 ± 25, 78 ± 15, 65 ± 14 in groups HATCP, 100TCP, 60HA and 20HA, respectively, which were significantly higher than that of group 12HA (12 ± 5) in week 5 (p < 0.05). The area percentages of new bone tissue were (7.33 ± 1.26)% and (8.49 ± 1.38)% in groups 100TCP and HATCP, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in groups 20HA (3.27 ± 0.38)% and 60HA (3.43 ± 0.27)% (p < 0.05); however, no bone tissue was found in group 12HA 10 weeks after transplantation. The expression of CD31 was positive in new blood vessels, and the expression of ColI was positive in new bone tissue. Conclusions: Nanoscale Ca-P biomaterials could induce osteogenesis in mice muscle, and the osteoinductive effects of TCP were about 124% higher than those of 20HA and 114% higher than those of 60HA. The particle size of the biomaterials affected angiogenesis and osteogenesis. There was a positive correlation between the number of blood vessels and the area percentage of new bone tissue; therefore, osteoinduction is closely related to vascularization. Our results provide an experimental basis for the synthesis of calcium−phosphorus matrix composites and for further exploration of the osteoinductive mechanism.

[PMID: 35314275 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2022.121679] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2021] [Revised: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
A customized implantable drug delivery system with the dual functions of playing a supporting role and providing continuous bacteriostasis is of great importance during the treatment of bone defect diseases. The main objective of this study was to explore the potential of using three-dimensional (3D) printing technologies to fabricate customized implants. Ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (Cipro) was chosen as the model drug, and two printing technologies, semisolid extrusion (SSE) and fused deposition modeling (FDM) were introduced. Six kinds of implants with customized irregular shapes were printed via FDM technology. Two kinds of implants with customized dosages were constructed via SSE technology. In addition, three kinds of implants with customized internal structures were produced via FDM and SSE technologies. The data for morphology, dimensions and mechanical properties demonstrated satisfactory printability and good printing accuracy when applying SSE and FDM technologies to produce the customized implants. The dissolution curves indicated that the desired customized drug release could be achieved by designing the specific internal structures. The biocompatibility examination showed that the printed implants possessed outstanding biocompatibility. In conclusion, all results suggested that 3D printing technologies provide a feasible method and novel strategy to fabricate customized implantable drug delivery systems.

[PMID: 35267796 PMCID: PMC8912323 DOI: 10.3390/polym14050976] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2022] [Revised: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA), especially in the form of HA nanoparticles (HANPs), has excellent bioactivity, biodegradability, and osteoconductivity and therefore has been widely used as a template or additives for drug delivery in clinical applications, such as dentistry and orthopedic repair. Due to the atomically anisotropic distribution on the preferred growth of HA crystals, especially the nanoscale rod-/whisker-like morphology, HA can generally be a good candidate for carrying a variety of substances. HA is biocompatible and suitable for medical applications, but most drugs carried by HANPs have an initial burst release. In the adsorption mechanism of HA as a carrier, specific surface area, pore size, and porosity are important factors that mainly affect the adsorption and release amounts. At present, many studies have developed HA as a drug carrier with targeted effect, porous structure, and high porosity. This review mainly discusses the influence of HA structures as a carrier on the adsorption and release of active molecules. It then focuses on the benefits and effects of different types of polymer-HA composites to re-examine the proteins/drugs carry and release behavior and related potential clinical applications. This literature survey can be divided into three main parts: 1. interaction and adsorption mechanism of HA and drugs; 2. advantages and application fields of HA/organic composites; 3. loading and drug release behavior of multifunctional HA composites in different environments. This work also presents the latest development and future prospects of HA as a drug carrier.

Abstract
3D printing, or additive manufacturing, has gained considerable interest due to its versatility regarding design as well as in the large choice of materials. It is a powerful tool in the field of personalized pharmaceutical treatment, particularly crucial for pediatric and geriatric patients. Polysaccharides are abundant and inexpensive natural polymers, that are already widely used in the food industry and as excipients in pharmaceutical and cosmetic formulations. Due to their intrinsic properties, such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-immunogenicity, etc., polysaccharides are largely investigated as matrices for drug delivery. Although an increasing number of interesting reviews on additive manufacturing and drug delivery are being published, there is a gap concerning the printing of polysaccharides. In this article, we will review recent advances in the 3D printing of polysaccharides focused on drug delivery applications. Among the large family of polysaccharides, the present review will particularly focus on cellulose and cellulose derivatives, chitosan and sodium alginate, printed by fused deposition modeling and extrusion-based printing.

Silicified collagen scaffold induces semaphorin 3A secretion by sensory nerves to improve in-situ bone regeneration. Bioact Mater 2021; 9:475-490. [PMID: 34820584 PMCID: PMC8586786 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2021.07.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2021] [Revised: 07/12/2021] [Accepted: 07/17/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Sensory nerves promote osteogenesis through the release of neuropeptides. However, the potential application and mechanism in which sensory nerves promote healing of bone defects in the presence of biomaterials remain elusive. The present study identified that new bone formation was more abundantly produced after implantation of silicified collagen scaffolds into defects created in the distal femur of rats. The wound sites were accompanied by extensive nerve innervation and angiogenesis. Sensory nerve dysfunction by capsaicin injection resulted in significant inhibition of silicon-induced osteogenesis in the aforementioned rodent model. Application of extracellular silicon in vitro induced axon outgrowth and increased expression of semaphorin 3 A (Sema3A) and semaphorin 4D (Sema4D) in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG), as detected by the upregulation of signaling molecules. Culture medium derived from silicon-stimulated DRG cells promoted proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and endothelial progenitor cells. These effects were inhibited by the use of Sema3A neutralizing antibodies but not by Sema4D neutralizing antibodies. Knockdown of Sema3A in DRG blocked silicon-induced osteogenesis and angiogenesis almost completely in a femoral defect rat model, whereas overexpression of Sema3A promoted the silicon-induced phenomena. Activation of “mechanistic target of rapamycin” (mTOR) pathway and increase of Sema3A production were identified in the DRG of rats that were implanted with silicified collagen scaffolds. These findings support the role of silicon in inducing Sema3A production by sensory nerves, which, in turn, stimulates osteogenesis and angiogenesis. Taken together, silicon has therapeutic potential in orthopedic rehabilitation. Nerve innervation, vascularization and tissue mineralization integrated into a single scaffold. Silicified collagen scaffolds has therapeutic potential in orthopedic rehabilitation. Silicified collagen scaffolds promote in-situ bone regeneration via sensory nerve innervation and semaphorin 3A production.

Abstract
Natural bone is a composite organic-inorganic material, containing hydroxyapatite (HAP) as an inorganic phase. In this review, applications of natural alginic acid (ALGH) polymer for the fabrication of composites containing HAP are described. ALGH is used as a biocompatible structure directing, capping and dispersing agent for the synthesis of HAP. Many advanced techniques for the fabrication of ALGH-HAP composites are attributed to the ability of ALGH to promote biomineralization. Gel-forming and film-forming properties of ALGH are key factors for the development of colloidal manufacturing techniques. Electrochemical fabrication techniques are based on strong ALGH adsorption on HAP, pH-dependent charge and solubility of ALGH. Functional properties of advanced composite ALGH-HAP films and coatings, scaffolds, biocements, gels and beads are described. The composites are loaded with other functional materials, such as antimicrobial agents, drugs, proteins and enzymes. Moreover, the composites provided a platform for their loading with cells for the fabrication of composites with enhanced properties for various biomedical applications. This review summarizes manufacturing strategies, mechanisms and outlines future trends in the development of functional biocomposites.

Characterization of Sodium Alginate Hydrogels Reinforced with Nanoparticles of Hydroxyapatite for Biomedical Applications. Polymers (Basel) 2021; 13:polym13172927.

Abstract
In recent years, researchers working in biomedical science and technology have investigated alternatives for enhancing the mechanical properties of biomedical materials. In this work, sodium alginate (SA) hydrogel-reinforced nanoparticles (NPs) of hydroxyapatite (HA) were prepared to enhance the mechanical properties of this polymer. Compression tests showed an increase of 354.54% in ultimate compressive strength (UCS), and 154.36% in Young’s modulus with the addition of these NPs compared with pure SA. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) revealed that the amount of residual water is not negligible and covered a range from 20 to 35 wt%, and the decomposition degree of the alginate depends on the hydroxyapatite content, possibly due to the displacement of sodium ions by the hydroxyapatite and not by calcium chloride. Further, there is an important effect possibly due to the existence of an interaction of hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl of the alginate and the oxygen atoms of the hydroxyapatite, so signals appear upfield in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data. An increase in the accumulation of HA particles was observed with the use of X-ray microtomography, in which the quantified volume of particles per reconstructed volume corresponded accordingly to the increase in the mechanical properties of the hydrogel.

Abstract
A suitable drug-loaded implant delivery system that can effectively release antibacterial drug in the postoperative lesion area and help repair bone infection is very significant in the clinical treatment of bone defect. The work was aimed to investigate the feasibility of applying three-dimensional (3D) printing technology to prepare drug-loaded implants for bone repair. Semi-solid extrusion (SSE) and Fuse deposition modeling® (FDM) technologies were implemented and ciprofloxacin (CIP) was chosen as the model drug. All of the implants exhibited a smooth surface, good mechanical properties and satisfactory structural integrity as well as accurate dimensional size. In vitro drug release showed that the implants made by 3D printing technologies slowed down the initial drug burst effect and expressed a long-term sustained release behavior, compared with the implants prepared with traditional method. In addition, the patient-specific macrostructure implants, consisting of interconnected and different shapes pores, were created using unique lay down patterns. As a result, the weakest burst release effect and the sustained drug release were achieved in the patient-specific implants with linear pattern. These results clearly stated that 3D printing technology offers a viable approach to prepare control-releasing implants with patient-specific macro-porosity and presents novel strategies for treating bone infections.

Abstract
A grand challenge in drug delivery is providing the right dose, at the right anatomic location, for the right duration of time to maximize therapeutic efficacy while minimizing off-target toxicity and other deleterious side-effects. Two general modalities are receiving broad attention for localized drug delivery. In the first, referred to as "targeted accumulation", drugs or drug carriers are engineered to have targeting moieties that promote their accumulation at a specific tissue site from circulation. In the second, referred to as "local anchoring", drugs or drug carriers are inserted directly into the tissue site of interest where they persist for a specified duration of time. This review surveys recent advances in harnessing molecular recognition between proteins, peptides, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates to mediate targeted accumulation and local anchoring of drugs and drug carriers.
