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
A highly bioactive glass solvBG76 in a binary system 76SiO2-24CaO (wt%) was prepared following a solvothermal path of the synthesis. The facile synthesis, in terms of the steps and reagents needed, enabled the achievement of a mesoporous material. Many factors such as nano-size (<50 nm), different morphology (non-spherical), use of an unconventional network modifier (calcium hydroxide) during the synthesis, a structure free of crystalline impurities, and textural properties greatly enhanced the kinetic deposition process of hydroxyapatite (HA) when contacting with physiological fluids. The formation of a HA layer on the glass was analyzed by various techniques, namely XRD, IR-ATR, Raman, XPS, EDS analyses, SEM, and HR-TEM imaging. The results obtained were compared to the 45S5 glass tested as a reference biomaterial as well as 70S30C-a glass with similar size and composition to reported solvBG76 but obtained by the conventional sol-gel method. For the first time, superior apatite-mineralization ability in less than 1 h in a physiological-like buffer was achieved. This unique bioactivity is accompanied by biocompatibility and hemocompatibility, which was indicated by a set of various assays in human dermal fibroblasts and MC3T3 mouse osteoblast precursor cells, as well as hemolytic activity determination.

Abstract
Delayed healing and nonhealing of bone defects or resected bone sites remains an important clinical concern in the biomedical field. Osteosarcoma is one of the most common types of primary bone cancers. Among calcium phosphates, hydroxyapatite (HA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) are the most widely used in various biomedical applications for bone reconstruction and replacement. In this study, crocin, saffron's natural bioactive and anti-inflammatory molecule, and bicarbonate, a neutralizing agent, were directly loaded onto HA disks to evaluate their in vitro release and effect on human osteoblast and osteosarcoma cell lines. This was assessed through release, initial toxicity, drug optimization, final toxicity studies and in vivo anti-inflammatory assessment through H&E indexing. It is hypothesized that the release of crocin, bicarbonate, and the dual release of both agents will decrease osteosarcoma cellular viability with no effect on osteoblast cells. A plateaued release of crocin and bicarbonate was achieved over seven weeks in physiological and acidic environments, where bicarbonate was shown to modulate the release of crocin. Through morphological characterization and MTT assay analysis, bicarbonate showed no toxicity to human fetal osteoblast (hFOB) cells and crocin significantly enhanced osteoblast proliferation. Through drug concentration optimization, all drug loaded samples decreased human osteosarcoma (MG-63) viability by 50% compared to control samples by Day 11, with clear changes in cell spreading and morphology. Moreover, 3D printed TCP scaffolds loaded with crocin and bicarbonate were tested in vivo in order to assess their preliminary effects on inflammation in a rat distal femur model at 4 days. Lower inflammatory cellular recruitment was achieved in the presence of crocin and bicarbonate, compared to the control. These results suggest a pro-apoptotic mechanism against osteosarcoma as well as anti-inflammatory properties of crocin and bicarbonate, elucidating a potential application for osteosarcoma regulation and wound healing for bone tissue regeneration applications.

Convergence of scaffold-guided bone regeneration and RIA bone grafting for the treatment of a critical-sized bone defect of the femoral shaft. Eur J Med Res 2020; 25:70. [PMID: 33349266 PMCID: PMC7754593 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-020-00471-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2020] [Accepted: 12/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Critical-sized bone defects, mainly from trauma, infection or tumor resection are a challenging condition, often resulting in prolonged, complicated course of treatment. Autografts are considered as the gold standard to replace lost bone. However, limited amount of bone graft volume and donor-site morbidity have established the need for the development of alternative methods such as scaffold-based tissue engineering (TE). The emerging market of additive manufacturing (3D-printing) has markedly influenced the manufacturing of scaffolds out of a variety of biodegradable materials. Particularly medical-grade polycaprolactone and tricalcium phosphate (mPCL-TCP) scaffolds show appropriate biocompatibility and osteoconduction with good biomechanical strength in large preclinical animal models. This case report aims to show first evidence of the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of mPCL-TCP scaffolds applied in a patient with a long bone segmental defect. CASE PRESENTATION The presented case comprises a 29-year-old patient who has suffered a left-sided II° open femoral shaft fracture. After initial external fixation and subsequent conversion to reamed antegrade femoral nailing, the patient presented with an infection in the area of the formerly open fracture. Multiple revision surgeries followed to eradicate microbial colonization and attempt to achieve bone healing. However, 18 months after the index event, still insufficient diaphyseal bone formation was observed with circumferential bony defect measuring 6 cm at the medial and 11 cm at the lateral aspect of the femur. Therefore, the patient received a patient-specific mPCL-TCP scaffold, fitting the exact anatomical defect and the inserted nail, combined with autologous bone graft (ABG) harvested with the Reamer-Irrigator-Aspirator system (RIA-Synthes®) as well as bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2). Radiographic follow-up 12 months after implantation of the TE scaffold shows advanced bony fusion and bone formation inside and outside the fully interconnected scaffold architecture. CONCLUSION This case report shows a promising translation of scaffold-based TE from bench to bedside. Preliminary evidence indicates that the use of medical-grade scaffolds is safe and has the potential to improve bone healing. Further, its synergistic effects when combined with ABG and BMP-2 show the potential of mPCL-TCP scaffolds to support new bone formation in segmental long bone defects.

Abstract
1. This study aimed to investigate effects of dietary fibre and grit on growth performance, gastrointestinal tract development, and gizzard grit retention of geese. 2. The trial had a 3 × 2 factorial design consisting of three levels of dietary crude fibre (CF, 4%, 7% and 10%, adjusted by grass powder), with or without grit addition (1-4 mm river sand). 3. In total, 648, 22-d-old male goslings were randomly allotted to six treatments (six pens/treatment). At 49 d and 70 d of age, one goose per pen was euthanised to collect samples. 4. The birds fed 10% CF had decreased feed conversion ratio (FCR) during 22-49 d, but this effect was less in older geese. Increasing dietary CF levels increased relative weights of gizzards for geese aged 49 d and 70 d. Grit addition decreased the relative weights of gizzard and duodenum of geese aged 49 d. The gizzard of geese could selectively retain grit from feed even with no grit added. With adequate supply, most grit in gizzard was 0.45-3 mm in size. 5. In conclusion, supplement of CF and grit mainly affected gastrointestinal tract, and the amount of CF affected FCR. Geese aged 22-49 d could utilise dietary CF levels of 4%-7% and older birds could feed on diets with up to 10% CF. The gizzard of goose selectively retained grit of a particle size of 0.45-3 mm.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to understand the effect of sustained release of vitamin C from β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffold on proliferation, viability and differentiation of human fetal osteoblast cells (hFOB). The influence of pH, drug concentration, and presence of polymer on the sustained release of vitamin C from polycaprolactone (PCL) coated β-TCP scaffolds are studied. Prolonged and sustained release of vitamin C, over 60 days is observed in PCL coated β-TCP scaffolds compared to uncoated scaffolds. Presence of PCL helps to minimize the burst release of vitamin C from β-TCP scaffolds in the initial 24 h of release. To evaluate the osteogenic potential of vitamin C incorporated β-TCP scaffolds, osteoblast cells are cultured and cell morphology, proliferation, viability, and differentiation are assessed. Morphological characterization shows layer like osteoblast cell attachment in the presence of vitamin C compared to the control. MTT cell viability assay shows 2 folds increase in osteoblast cell density in the presence of vitamin C after 3,7 and 11 days of culture. Furthermore, increased ALP activity at 11 days of culture indicates the possible role of vitamin C on osteoblast differentiation. Additionally, a preliminary study shows vitamin C loaded scaffolds suppress osteosarcoma (MG-63) cell proliferation to 4 folds after 3 days compared to control. These results show a sustained release of vitamin C from PCL coated β-TCP scaffolds improve proliferation, viability, and differentiation of osteoblasts cell as well as mitigate osteosarcoma cell proliferation, suggesting its potential application as synthetic bone graft substitutes in tissue engineering application.

Abstract
Zoledronate (Zol) is an anti-resorptive/tumoral agent used for the treatment of many cancers including spinal bone metastasis. High systemic administration of a single dose is now the standard clinical care, yet it has been associated with several side effects. Here, we aimed to evaluate the effects of lower doses Zol on lung cancer and lung cancer-induced bone metastasis cells over a longer time period. Human lung cancer (HCC827) and three bone metastases secondary to lung cancer (BML1, BML3 and BML4) cells were treated with Zol at 1, 3 and 10 µM for 7 days and then assessed for cell proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis. Low Zol treatment significantly decreased cell proliferation (1, 3 and 10 µM), migration (3 and 10 µM) and invasion (10 µM) while increasing apoptosis (10 µM) in lung cancer and metastatic cells. Our data exploits the potential of using low doses Zol for longer treatment periods and reinforces this approach as a new therapeutic regimen to impede the development of metastatic bone cancer while limiting severe side effects following high doses of systemic drug treatment.

Abstract
Bone is a randomized, complex porous network which researchers have tried to mimic within bone tissue engineering scaffolds. The objective of this study was to understand the effects of random and controlled scaffold porosity on the release kinetics of vitamin D3 to determine if a designed porous structure was comparable in effectiveness on osteoblast proliferation to the randomized essence of natural bone. In this study, porous tricalcium phosphate (TCP) scaffolds were prepared by fugitive material removal method using naphthalene and 3D printing to model random and controlled porosity, respectively. Scaffold comparison was made based on open pore volume percentage of which naphthalene scaffolds had 45.8 ± 1.5% and 3D printed scaffolds had 48.9 ± 2.5%, Comparative analysis of traditional bioceramic processing to additive manufacturing is limited especially regarding drug release kinetics. Results showed the naphthalene scaffold surface area was only 0.3% that of 3D printed scaffolds due to the lower open pore interconnectivity. This increase in surface area produced higher release of drug and osteoblast proliferation in 3D printed scaffolds comparatively. By 11 days, osteoblast proliferation was enhanced by 64% from scaffolds manufactured using 3D printing compared to traditional processing. Understanding the effects of processing methods of TCP scaffolds on the release kinetics of vitamin D3 and the system effects on cells can aid in low load bearing applications for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Vitamin D3 is a hydrophobic micronutrient and is known for inhibiting osteoclastic bone resorption in vivo via suppression of the Receptor Activator of Nuclear factor-Kappa B (RANK ligand) expression in osteoblasts. Although vitamin D is well-known for its promotion in bone health, little is known on its effects directly on bone cells. The objective of this study was to understand the effects of vitamin D3 release from 3D printed calcium phosphate scaffolds towards bone cell proliferation. In this study, cholecalciferol, a common intake form of vitamin D3, was successfully able to release from the scaffold matrix via the use of polyethylene glycol. Results showed a decrease in osteoclast resorption pits and healthier osteoblast cellular morphology compared to the control. Additively manufactured tricalcium phosphate scaffolds with designed porosity were loaded with vitamin D3 and showed controlled release profiles in phosphate buffer and acetate buffer solutions. The release kinetics of vitamin D3 from calcium phosphate scaffolds enabling osteoblast proliferation and inhibiting osteoclastic resorption can enhance healing for low load bearing applications for bone defects or permeate voids left by tumor resection. Release of Vitamin D3, cholecalciferol, from 3D printed calcium phosphate scaffolds showed reduced osteoclast resorption activity.![]()

Abstract
A polymer coating as polycaprolactone (PCL) is applied to improve the initial corrosion resistance of biodegradable magnesium. In addition, plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is performed to increase adhesion between the polymer and the metal. However, when a complex-shaped material such as a screw is implanted in a bone, the surface coatings are locally damaged, and the protective role of the coating is not sufficiently maintained. In this study, the optimal conditions for producing a polymer coating on a screw were determined by varying the concentration of the PCL and the coating cycles, and were examined in vitro and in vivo. Among various the PCL coating conditions of 2∼6 cycles with 5∼7 wt.% concentrations, the 6 wt.% + 4 cycles group was applied uniformly to the screw thread. In the case of the non-uniform PCL layers, oxides and gases were present between the Mg and the PCL layer because internal magnesium corrosion and the layer peel off. The 6 wt.% + 4 cycles group had a high corrosion resistance due to the low wear on the thread. Denser and thicker bone formed around the PCL-coated screw in rat femur. This difference was due to the high corrosion resistance, which provided sufficient time for bone healing and promoting new bone growth.

Abstract
Biomaterials are used to engineer functional restoration of different tissues to improve human health and the quality of life. Biomaterials can be natural or synthetic. Additive manufacturing (AM) is a novel materials processing approach to create parts or prototypes layer-by-layer directly from a computer aided design (CAD) file. The combination of additive manufacturing and biomaterials is very promising, especially towards patient specific clinical applications. Challenges of AM technology along with related materials issues need to be realized to make this approach feasible for broader clinical needs. This approach is already making a significant gain towards numerous commercial biomedical devices. In this review, key additive manufacturing methods are first introduced followed by AM of different materials, and finally applications of AM in various treatment options. Realization of critical challenges and technical issues for different AM methods and biomaterial selections based on clinical needs are vital. Multidisciplinary research will be necessary to face those challenges and fully realize the potential of AM in the coming days.

Abstract
The scientific objective of this study was to understand the influence of PCL coating on alendronate drug release kinetics in vitro. Our hypothesis was PCL coating would minimize burst release of alendronate from plasma sprayed Mg-doped hydroxyapatite (HA) coated commercially pure titanium (CpTi) samples. In the US alone, over 44 million women and men aged 50 and older are affected by osteoporosis which can lead to replacement and/or revision surgeries. Alendronate is a widely-used drug for treating osteoporosis and would be an ideal drug to be loaded and released from these replacement systems. Initial burst release is a common phenomenon for the most drug loaded devices. To modulate the release kinetics, a biodegradable polymer, polycaprolactone (PCL), coating with slow degradable kinetics was employed. Samples with 2 and 4 wt% PCL showed about 34% and 26% release of alendronate within the first 24 h, respectively, compared to 75% burst release without any PCL coating. With the addition of a PCL coating, a controlled release kinetics of alendronate was achieved from HA coated titanium implants, which can potentially impact millions of patients worldwide having compromised bone due to osteoporosis.

Abstract
There is a clear clinical need for a bioactive bone graft substitute. Poly(vinyl phosphonic acid-co-acrylic acid) (PVPA-co-AA) has been identified as a promising candidate for bone regeneration but there is little evidence to show its direct osteogenic effect on progenitor or mature cells. In this study mature osteoblast-like cells (SaOS-2) and human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs) were cultured with PVPA-co-AA polymers with different VPA:AA ratio and at different concentrations in vitro. We are the first to report the direct osteogenic effect of PVPA-co-AA polymer on bone cells and, more importantly, this effect was dependent on VPA:AA ratio and concentration. Under the optimized conditions, PVPA-co-AA polymer not only has an osteoconductive effect, enhancing SaOS-2 cell mineralization, but also has an osteoinductive effect to promote hBM-MSCs' osteogenic differentiation. Notably, the same PVPA-co-AA polymer at different concentrations could lead to differential osteogenic effects on both SaOS-2 and hBM-MSCs in vitro. This study furthers knowledge of the PVPA-co-AA polymer in osteogenic studies, which is critical when utilizing the PVPA-co-AA polymer for the design of novel bioactive polymeric tissue engineering scaffolds for future clinical applications. © 2017 The Authors Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A systematic characterization of hybrid scaffolds, fabricated based on combinatorial additive manufacturing technique and freeze-drying method, is presented as a new platform for osteoblastic differentiation of dental pulp cells (DPCs). METHODS The scaffolds were consisted of a collagenous matrix embedded in a 3D-printed beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) as the mineral phase. The developed construct design was intended to achieve mechanical robustness owing to 3D-printed β-TCP scaffold, and biologically active 3D cell culture matrix pertaining to the Collagen extracellular matrix. The β-TCP precursor formulations were investigated for their flow-ability at various temperatures, which optimized for fabrication of 3D printed scaffolds with interconnected porosity. The hybrid constructs were characterized by 3D laser scanning microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and compressive strength testing. RESULTS The in vitro characterization of scaffolds revealed that the hybrid β-TCP/Collagen constructs offer superior DPCs proliferation and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity compared to the 3D-printed β-TCP scaffold over three weeks. Moreover, it was found that the incorporation of TCP into the Collagen matrix improves the ALP activity. SIGNIFICANCE The presented results converge to suggest the developed 3D-printed β-TCP/Collagen hybrid constructs as a new platform for osteoblastic differentiation of DPCs for craniomaxillofacial bone regeneration.

Abstract
A hydroxyapatite-collagen (HC) composite material can mimic composition and ultra-structures of natural bone and provide adequate bioactive material-tissue interactions. Incorporation of dopamine (DA) is one of keys in increasing the mechanical strength of the HC material to approaching that of cortical bone. In this study, the in vitro osteogenic effects of polydopamine-laced hydroxyapatite collagen calcium silicate (HCCS-PDA) were examined by culturing rat mesenchymal stem cells (rMSCs) on HCCS-PDA and HCCS coated plates. HCCS-PDA group demonstrated less cytotoxic from Live/Dead cytotoxic assay and displayed higher cell attachment, proliferation and mineralization than the HCCS group in vitro. For in vivo bone regeneration, HCCS-PDA or HCCS particulates with or without rMSC aggregates were implanted into rat critical-sized calvarial defects (CSD). After 12 weeks, calvarial bone regeneration was evaluated radiographically, histologically, and histomorphometrically. While the majority of new bone formation occurred around the HCCS-PDA particulates with rMSC aggregates, The HCCS-PDA particulates without rMSC aggregates showed limited osteoconductivity. HCCS with or without rMSC aggregates resulted in less bone formation, indicating a prominent role of DA in effective bone regeneration. Therefore, the HCCS-PDA biomaterial with the aid of rMSCs can be used to develop therapeutic strategies in bone tissue engineering with numerable clinical applications.

Abstract
Bone graft procedures, in particular maxillofacial repair, account for half of the orthopedic procedures done in the US each year. Infection is a major issue in surgery, and should be of primary concern when engineering biomaterials. Silver is of renewed importance today, as it has the ability to potentiate antibiotics against resistant bacterial strains. In order to reduce long term infection risks, it is necessary for the scaffold to maintain a silver ion release for the length of the healing process. In this study, silver doped porous β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds were engineered using liquid porogen based method with the goal of meeting these requirements. Silver was added to the β-TCP at three different dopant levels: 0.5wt% Ag2O, 1wt% Ag2O and 2wt% Ag2O. Immersion in pH5 acetate buffer over a 60day period resulted in a total cumulative ion release between 32 and 54μM for dense control scaffolds, and between 80 and 90μM for porous scaffolds. Porosity increased the dissolution rate of the scaffolds by a factor of 2. Human osteoblast cell lines were grown on the scaffolds to measure cytotoxicity and cell proliferation. Porosity increased osteoconduction by doubling the cell growth, and there was no significant cytotoxic effect even for the 2wt% Ag2O, as cells were observed on all the samples. Our results showed that silver can be released over a long period without compromising the biocompatibility of the scaffolds.

Abstract
The aim of this work was the development and characterization of nisin-loaded nanoparticles and the evaluation of its potential antifungal activity. Candidiasis is a fungal infection caused by Candida sp. considered as one of the major public health problem currently. The discovery of antifungal agents that present a reduced or null resistance of Candida sp. and the development of more efficient drug release mechanisms are necessary for the improvement of candidiasis treatment. Nisin, a bacteriocin commercially available for more than 50 years, exhibits antibacterial action in food products with potential antifungal activity. Among several alternatives used to modulate antifungal activity of bacteriocins, polymeric nanoparticles have received great attention due to an effective drug release control and reduction of therapeutic dose, besides the minimization of adverse effects by the preferential accumulation in specific tissues. The nisin nanoparticles were prepared by double emulsification and solvent evaporation methods. Nanoparticles were characterized by dynamic light scattering, zeta potential, Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, and scanning electron microscopy. Antifungal activity was accessed by pour plate method and cell counting using Candida albicans strains. The in vitro release profile and in vitro permeation studies were performed using dialysis bag method and pig vaginal mucosa in Franz diffusion cell, respectively. The results revealed nisin nanoparticles (300 nm) with spherical shape and high loading efficiency (93.88 ± 3.26%). In vitro test results suggest a promising application of these nanosystems as a prophylactic agent in recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis and other gynecological diseases.

Abstract
NEL-like molecule-1 (NELL-1) is a novel osteogenic protein that showing high specificity to osteochondral cells. It was widely used in bone regeneration research by loading onto carriers such as tricalcium phosphate (TCP) particles. However, there has been little research on protein controlled release from this material and its potential application. In this study, TCP was first modified with a hydroxyapatite coating followed by a chitosan coating to prepare chitosan/hydroxyapatite-coated TCP particles (Chi/HA-TCP). The preparation was characterized by SEM, EDX, FTIR, XRD, FM and Zeta potential measurements. The NELL-1 loaded Chi/HA-TCP particles and the release kinetics were investigated in vitro. It was observed that the Chi/HA-TCP particles prepared with the 0.3% (wt/wt) chitosan solution were able to successfully control the release of NELL-1 and maintain a slow, steady release for up to 28 days. Furthermore, more than 78% of the loaded protein's bioactivity was preserved in Chi/HA-TCP particles over the period of the investigation, which was significantly higher than that of the protein released from hydroxyapatite coated TCP (HA-TCP) particles. Collectively, this study suggests that the osteogenic protein NELL-1 showed a sustained release pattern after being encapsulated into the modified Chi/HA-TCP particles, and the NELL-1 integrated composite of Chi/HA-TCP showed a potential to function as a protein delivery carrier and as an improved bone matrix for use in bone regeneration research.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering is sought to apply strategies for bone defects healing without limitations and short-comings of using either bone autografts or allografts and xenografts. The aim of this study was to fabricate a thin layer poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) coated beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffold with sustained release of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). PLGA coating increased compressive strength of the β-TCP scaffolds significantly. For in vitro evaluations, canine mesenchymal stem cells (cMSCs) and canine endothelial progenitor cells (cEPCs) were isolated and characterized. Cell proliferation and attachment were demonstrated and the rate of cells proliferation on the VEGF released scaffold was significantly more than compared to the scaffolds with no VEGF loading. A significant increase in expression of COL1 and RUNX2 was indicated in the scaffolds loaded with VEGF and MSCs compared to the other groups. Consequently, PLGA coated β-TCP scaffold with sustained and localized release of VEGF showed favourable results for bone regeneration in vitro, and this scaffold has the potential to use as a drug delivery device in the future.

Abstract
A series biodegradable poly (γ-glutamic acid)/beta-tricalcium phosphate (γ-PGA/TCP) nanocomposites were prepared which were composed of poly-γ-glutamic acid polymerized in situ with β-tricalcium phosphate and physiochemically characterized as bone graft substitutes. The particle size via dynamic light scattering, the direct morphological characterization via transmission electron microscopy and field emission scanning electron microscope, which showed that γ-PGA and β-TCP were combined compactly at 80℃, and the γ-PGA/TCP nanocomposites had homogenous and nano-sized grains with narrow particle size distributions. The water uptake and retention abilities, in vitro degradation properties, cytotoxicity in the simulated medium, and protein release of these novel γ-PGA/TCP composites were investigated. Cell proliferation in composites was nearly twice than β-TCP when checked in vitro using MC3T3 cell line. We also envision the potential use of γ-PGA/TCP systems in bone growth factor or orthopedic drug delivery applications in future bone tissue engineering applications. These observations suggest that the γ-PGA/TCP are novel nanocomposites with great potential for application in the field of bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Strategies that utilize controlled release of drugs and proteins for tissue engineering have enormous potential to regenerate damaged organs and tissues. The multiple advantages of controlled release strategies merit overcoming the significant challenges to translation, including high costs and long, difficult regulatory pathways. This review highlights the potential of controlled release of proteins for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. We specifically discuss treatment modalities that have reached preclinical and clinical trials, with emphasis on controlled release systems for bone tissue engineering, the most advanced application with several products already in clinic. Possible strategies to address translational and regulatory concerns are also discussed.

Abstract
Additive manufacturing allows to widely control the geometrical features of implants. Recently, we described the fabrication of calcium phosphate cement (CPC) scaffolds by 3D plotting of a storable CPC paste based on water-immiscible carrier liquid. Plotting and hardening is conducted under mild conditions allowing the (precise and local) integration of biological components. In this study, we have developed a procedure for efficient loading of growth factors in the CPC scaffolds during plotting and demonstrated the feasibility of this approach. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), used as model proteins, were encapsulated in chitosan/dextran sulphate microparticles which could be easily mixed into the CPC paste in freeze-dried state. In order to prevent leaching of the proteins during cement setting, usually carried out by immersion in aqueous solutions, the plotted scaffolds were aged in water-saturated atmosphere (humidity). Setting in humidity avoided early loss of loaded proteins but provided sufficient amount of water to allow cement setting, as indicated by XRD analysis and mechanical testing in comparison to scaffolds set in water. Moreover, humidity-set scaffolds were characterised by altered, even improved properties: no swelling or crack formation was observed and accordingly, surface topography, total porosity and compressive modulus of the humidity-set scaffolds differed from those of the water-set counterparts. Direct cultivation of mesenchymal stem cells on the humidity-set scaffolds over 21days revealed their cytocompatibility. Maintenance of the bioactivity of VEGF during the fabrication procedure was proven in indirect and direct culture experiments with endothelial cells. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Additive manufacturing techniques allow the fabrication of implants with defined architecture (inner pore structure and outer shape). Especially printing technologies conducted under mild conditions allow additionally the (spatially controlled) integration of biological components such as drugs or growth factors. That enables the generation of individualized implants which can better meet the requirements of a patient and of tissue engineering constructs. To our knowledge, simultaneous printing of biological components was up to now only described for hydrogel/biopolymer-based materials which suffer from poor mechanical properties. In contrast, we have developed a procedure (based on 3D plotting of a calcium phosphate cement paste) for the fabrication of designed and growth factor loaded calcium-phosphate-based scaffolds applicable for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Tricalcium phosphate (TCP) is a bioceramic that is widely used in orthopedic and dental applications. TCP structures show excellent biocompatibility as well as biodegradability. In this study, porous β-TCP scaffolds were prepared by thermal decomposition of naphthalene. Scaffolds with 57.64% ± 3.54% density and a maximum pore size around 100 μm were fabricated via removing 30% naphthalene at 1150°C. The compressive strength for these scaffolds was 32.85 ± 1.41 MPa. Furthermore, by mixing 1 wt % SrO and 0.5 wt % SiO2 , pore interconnectivity improved, but the compressive strength decreased to 22.40 ± 2.70 MPa. However, after addition of polycaprolactone coating layers, the compressive strength of doped scaffolds increased to 29.57 ± 3.77 MPa. Porous scaffolds were implanted in rabbit femur defects to evaluate their biological property. The addition of dopants triggered osteoinduction by enhancing osteoid formation, osteocalcin expression, and bone regeneration, especially at the interface of the scaffold and host bone. This study showed processing flexibility to make interconnected porous scaffolds with different pore size and volume fraction porosity, while maintaining high compressive mechanical strength and excellent bioactivity. Results show that SrO/SiO2 -doped porous TCP scaffolds have excellent potential to be used in bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
The management and reconstruction of damaged or diseased skeletal tissues have remained a significant global healthcare challenge. The limited efficacy of conventional treatment strategies for large bone, cartilage and osteochondral defects has inspired the development of scaffold-based tissue engineering solutions, with the aim of achieving complete biological and functional restoration of the affected tissue in the presence of a supporting matrix. Nevertheless, significant regulatory hurdles have rendered the clinical translation of novel scaffold designs to be an inefficient process, mainly due to the difficulties of arriving at a simple, reproducible and effective solution that does not rely on the incorporation of cells and/or bioactive molecules. In the context of the current clinical situation and recent research advances, this review will discuss scaffold-based strategies for the regeneration of skeletal tissues, with focus on the contribution of bioactive ceramic scaffolds and silk fibroin, and combinations thereof, towards the development of clinically viable solutions.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect of in vitro alendronate (AD) release behavior through polycaprolactone (PCL) coating on in vivo bone formation using PCL-coated 3D printed interconnected porous tricalcium phosphate (TCP) scaffolds. Higher AD and Ca(2+) ion release was observed at lower pH (5.0) than that at higher pH (7.4). AD and Ca(2+) release, surface morphology, and phase analysis after release indicated a matrix degradation dominated AD release caused by TCP dissolution. PCL coating showed its effectiveness for controlled and sustained AD release. Six different scaffold compositions, namely, (i) TCP (bare TCP), (ii) TCP + AD (AD-coated TCP), (iii) TCP + PCL (PCL-coated TCP), (iv) TCP + PCL + AD, (v) TCP + AD + PCL, and (vi) TCP + AD + PCL + AD were tested in the distal femoral defect of Sprague-Dawley rats for 6 and 10 weeks. An excellent bone formation inside the micro and macro pores of the scaffolds was observed from histomorphology. Histomorphometric analysis revealed maximum new bone formation in TCP + AD + PCL scaffolds after 6 weeks. No adverse effect of PCL on bioactivity of TCP and in vivo bone formation was observed. All scaffolds with AD showed higher bone formation and reduced TRAP (tartrate resistant acid phosphatase) positive cells activity compared to bare TCP and TCP coated with only PCL. Bare TCP scaffolds showed the highest TRAP positive cells activity followed by TCP + PCL scaffolds, whereas TCP + AD scaffolds showed the lowest TRAP activity. A higher TRAP positive cells activity was observed in TCP + AD + PCL compared to TCP + AD scaffolds after 6 weeks. Our results show that in vivo local AD delivery from PCL-coated 3DP TCP scaffolds could further induce increased early bone formation.

Abstract
The need for implants to repair large bone defects is driving the development of porous synthetic scaffolds with the requisite mechanical strength and toughness in vivo. Recent developments in the use of design principles and novel fabrication technologies are paving the way to create synthetic scaffolds with promising potential for reconstituting bone in load-bearing sites. This article reviews the state of the art in the design and fabrication of bioactive glass and ceramic scaffolds that have improved mechanical properties for structural bone repair. Scaffolds with anisotropic and periodic structures can be prepared with compressive strengths comparable to human cortical bone (100-150 MPa), while scaffolds with an isotropic structure typically have strengths in the range of trabecular bone (2-12 MPa). However, the mechanical response of bioactive glass and ceramic scaffolds in multiple loading modes such as flexure and torsion - as well as their mechanical reliability, fracture toughness, and fatigue resistance - has received little attention. Inspired by the designs of natural materials such as cortical bone and nacre, glass-ceramic and inorganic/polymer composite scaffolds created with extrinsic toughening mechanisms are showing potential for both high strength and mechanical reliability. Future research should include improved designs that provide strong scaffolds with microstructures conducive to bone ingrowth, and evaluation of these scaffolds in large animal models for eventual translation into clinical applications.

Abstract
During the past two decades, research on ceramic scaffolds for bone regeneration has progressed rapidly; however, currently available porous scaffolds remain unsuitable for load-bearing applications. The key to success is to apply microstructural design strategies to develop ceramic scaffolds with mechanical properties approaching those of bone. Here we report on the development of a unique microstructurally designed ceramic scaffold, strontium-hardystonite-gahnite (Sr-HT-gahnite), with 85% porosity, 500μm pore size, a competitive compressive strength of 4.1±0.3MPa and a compressive modulus of 170±20MPa. The in vitro biocompatibility of the scaffolds was studied using primary human bone-derived cells. The ability of Sr-HT-gahnite scaffolds to repair critical-sized bone defects was also investigated in a rabbit radius under normal load, with β-tricalcium phosphate/hydroxyapatite scaffolds used in the control group. Studies with primary human osteoblast cultures confirmed the bioactivity of these scaffolds, and regeneration of rabbit radial critical defects demonstrated that this material induces new bone defect bridging, with clear evidence of regeneration of original radial architecture and bone marrow environment.

Abstract
β-Tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) with three different particle size ranges was used to study the effects of particle size and surface area on protein adsorption and release. Polycaprolactone (PCL) coating was applied on the particle systems to investigate its effect on particulate system properties from both structural and application aspects. The maximum loading of 27 mg/g was achieved for 100 nm particles. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) loading amount was controlled by varying the BSA loading solution concentration, as well as the sample powder's surface area. Increasing the surface area of the delivery powder significantly increased loading and release yield. Unlike the samples with low surface area, the lowest particle size samples showed sigmoidal release profile. This indicated that release was governed by different mechanisms for particles with different sizes. While the majority of samples showed no more than 50% release, the 550 nm particles demonstrated 100% release. PCL coating showed no significant ability to attenuate burst release in PBS. However, it led to a steadier release profile as compared to the bare TCP particles. FTIR analysis also proved that the secondary structure of BSA did not change significantly during the adsorption; however, minor denaturation was found during the release. The same results were found when PCL coating was applied on the TCP particles. We envision potential use of TCP and TCP+PCL systems in bone growth factor or orthopedic drug delivery applications in future bone tissue engineering application.

Abstract
The approach of local drug delivery from polymeric coating is currently getting significant attention for both soft and hard tissue engineering applications for sustained and controlled release. The chemistry of the polymer and the drug, and their interactions influence the release kinetics to a great extent. Here, we examine lovastatin release behaviour from polycaprolactone (PCL) coating on β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). Lovastatin was incorporated into biodegradable water insoluble PCL coating. A burst and uncontrolled lovastatin release was observed from bare β-TCP, whereas controlled and sustained release was observed from PCL coating. A higher lovastatin release was observed pH7.4 as compared to pH5.0. Effect of PCL concentration on lovastatin release was opposite at pH7.4 and 5.0. At pH5.0 lovastatin release was decreased with increasing PCL concentration, whereas release was increased with increasing PCL concentration at pH7.4. High Ca(2+) ion concentration due to high solubility of β-TCP and degradation of PCL coating were observed at pH5.0 compared to no detectable Ca(2+) ion release and visible degradation of PCL coating at pH7.4. The hydrophilic-hydrophobic and hydrophobic-hydrophobic interactions between lovastatin and PCL were found to be the key factors controlling the diffusion dominated release kinetics of lovastatin from PCL coating over dissolution and degradation processes. Understanding the lovastatin release chemistry from PCL will be beneficial for designing drug delivery devices from polymeric coating or scaffolds.

Abstract
Bone disorders are of significant concern due to increase in the median age of our population. Traditionally, bone grafts have been used to restore damaged bone. Synthetic biomaterials are now being used as bone graft substitutes. These biomaterials were initially selected for structural restoration based on their biomechanical properties. Later scaffolds were engineered to be bioactive or bioresorbable to enhance tissue growth. Now scaffolds are designed to induce bone formation and vascularization. These scaffolds are often porous, made of biodegradable materials that harbor different growth factors, drugs, genes, or stem cells. In this review, we highlight recent advances in bone scaffolds and discuss aspects that still need to be improved.

Abstract
Characterizing the mechanical characteristics of living cells and cell–biomaterial composite is an important area of research in bone tissue engineering. In this work, an in situ displacement-controlled nanoindentation technique (using Hysitron Triboscope) is developed to perform nanomechanical characterization of living cells (human osteoblasts) and cell–substrate constructs under physiological conditions (cell culture medium; 37 °C). In situ elastic moduli (E) of adsorbed proteins on tissue culture polystyrene (TCPS) under cell culture media were found to be ∼4 GPa as revealed by modulus mapping experiments. The TCPS substrates soaked in cell culture medium showed significant difference in surface nanomechanical properties (up to depths of ∼12 nm) as compared to properties obtained from deeper indentations. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed the cytoskeleton structures such as actin stress fiber networks on flat cells which are believed to impart the structural integrity to cell structure. Load-deformation response of cell was found to be purely elastic in nature, i.e., cell recovers its shape on unloading as indicated by linear loading and unloading curves obtained at 1000 nm indentation depth. The elastic response of cells is obtained during initial cell adhesion (ECell, 1 h, 1000 nm = 4.4–12.4 MPa), cell division (ECell, 2 days, 1000 nm = 1.3–3.0 MPa), and cell spreading (ECell, 2 days, 1000 nm = 6.9–11.6 MPa). Composite nanomechanical responses of cell–TCPS constructs were obtained by indentation at depths of 2000 nm and 3000 nm on cell-seeded TCPS. Elastic properties of cell–substrate composites were mostly dominated by stiff TCPS (EBulk = 5 GPa) lying underneath the cell.

Abstract
Calcium phosphates (CaPs) are the most widely used bone substitutes in bone tissue engineering due to their compositional similarities to bone mineral and excellent biocompatibility. In recent years, CaPs, especially hydroxyapatite and tricalcium phosphate, have attracted significant interest in simultaneous use as bone substitute and drug delivery vehicle, adding a new dimension to their application. CaPs are more biocompatible than many other ceramic and inorganic nanoparticles. Their biocompatibility and variable stoichiometry, thus surface charge density, functionality, and dissolution properties, make them suitable for both drug and growth factor delivery. CaP matrices and scaffolds have been reported to act as delivery vehicles for growth factors and drugs in bone tissue engineering. Local drug delivery in musculoskeletal disorder treatments can address some of the critical issues more effectively and efficiently than the systemic delivery. CaPs are used as coatings on metallic implants, CaP cements, and custom designed scaffolds to treat musculoskeletal disorders. This review highlights some of the current drug and growth factor delivery approaches and critical issues using CaP particles, coatings, cements, and scaffolds towards orthopedic and dental applications.
