J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2024; 112:e35479. [PMID: 39225415 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.35479] [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: 01/16/2024] [Revised: 07/31/2024] [Accepted: 08/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Doping of brushite cements with metal ions can entail many positive effects on biological and physicochemical properties. Cu2+ ions are known to exhibit antibacterial properties and can additionally have different positive effects on cells as trace elements, whereas high Cu2+ concentrations are cytotoxic. For therapeutical applications of bone cement, a combination of good biocompatibility and sufficient mechanical properties is required. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate different physicochemical and biological aspects, relevant for application, of a brushite cement with Cu2+-doped β-tricalcium phosphate, monocalcium phosphate monohydrate and phytic acid as setting retarder. Additionally, the ion release was compared with a cement with citric acid as setting retarder. The investigated cements showed good injectability coefficients, as well as compressive strength values sufficient for application. Furthermore, no antibacterial effects were detected irrespective of the Cu2+ concentration or the bacterial strain. The cell experiments with eluate samples showed that the viability of MC3T3-E1 cells tended to decrease with increasing Cu2+ concentration in the cement. It is suggested that these biological responses are caused by the difference in the Cu2+ release from the hardened cement depending on the solvent medium. Furthermore, the cements showed a steady release of Cu2+ ions to a lesser extent in comparison with a cement with citric acid as setting retarder, where a burst release of Cu2+ was observed. In conclusion, despite the anticipated antibacterial effect of Cu2+-doped cements was lacking and mammalian cell viability was slightly affected, Cu2+-concentrations maintained the physicochemical properties as well as the compressive strength of cements and the slow ion release from cements produced with phytic acid is considered advantageous compared to citric acid-based formulations.

Abstract
The addition of dopants in biomaterials has emerged as a critical regulator of bone formation and regeneration due to their imminent role in the biological process. The present work evaluated the role of strontium (Sr) and magnesium (Mg) dopants in brushite cement (BrC) on in vivo bone healing performance in a rabbit model. Pure, 1 wt% SrO (Sr-BrC), 1 wt% MgO (Mg-BrC), and a binary composition of 1.0 wt% SrO + 1.0 wt% MgO (Sr + Mg-BrC) BrCs were implanted into critical-sized tibial defects in rabbits for up to 4 months. The in vivo bone healing of three doped and pure BrC samples was examined and compared using sequential radiological examination, histological evaluations, and fluorochrome labeling studies. The results indicated excellent osseous tissue formation for Sr-BrC and Sr + Mg-BrC and moderate bone regeneration for Mg-BrC compared to pure BrC. Our findings indicated that adding small amounts of SrO, MgO, and binary dopants to the BrC can significantly influence new bone formation for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Reversing protein aggregation within cells may be an important tool to fight protein-misfolding disorders such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and cardiovascular diseases. Here we report the design and synthesis of a family of steroid-quinoline hybrid compounds based on the framework combination approach. This set of hybrid compounds effectively inhibited Aβ1-42 self-aggregation in vitro by delaying the exponential growth phase and/or reducing the quantity of fibrils in the steady state. Their disaggregation efficacy was further demonstrated against preaggregated Aβ1-42 peptides in cellular assays upon their endocytosis by neuroblastoma cells, as they reverted both the number and the average area of fibrils back to basal levels. The antiaggregation effect of these hybrids was further tested and demonstrated in a cellular model of general protein aggregation expressing a protein aggregation fluorescent sensor. Together, our results show that the new cholesterol-quinoline hybrids possess wide and marked disaggregation capacities and are therefore promising templates for the development of new drugs to deal with conformational disorders.

Abstract
Replacement orthopedic surgeries are among the most common surgeries worldwide, but clinically used passive implants cannot prevent failure rates and inherent revision arthroplasties. Optimized non-instrumented implants, resorting to preclinically tested bioactive coatings, improve initial osseointegration but lack long-term personalized actuation on the bone-implant interface. Novel bioelectronic devices comprising biophysical stimulators and sensing systems are thus emerging, aiming for long-term control of peri-implant bone growth through biointerface monitoring. These acting-sensing dual systems require high frequency (HF) operations able to stimulate osteoinduction/osteoconduction, including matrix maturation and mineralization. A sensing-compatible capacitive stimulator of thin interdigitated electrodes and delivering an electrical 60 kHz HF stimulation, 30 min/day, is here shown to promote osteoconduction in pre-osteoblasts and osteoinduction in human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hASCs). HF stimulation through this capacitive interdigitated system had significant effects on osteoblasts' collagen-I synthesis, matrix, and mineral deposition. A proteomic analysis of microvesicles released from electrically-stimulated osteoblasts revealed regulation of osteodifferentiation and mineralization-related proteins (e.g. Tgfb3, Ttyh3, Itih1, Aldh1a1). Proteomics data are available via ProteomeXchange with the identifier PXD028551. Further, under HF stimulation, hASCs exhibited higher osteogenic commitment and enhanced hydroxyapatite deposition. These promising osteoinductive/conductive capacitive stimulators will integrate novel bioelectronic implants able to monitor the bone-implant interface and deliver personalized stimulation to peri-implant tissues.

Abstract
Cosurface electrode architectures are able to deliver personalized electric stimuli to target tissues. As such, this technology holds potential for a variety of innovative biomedical devices. However, to date, no detailed analyses have been conducted to evaluate the impact of stimulator architecture and geometry on stimuli features. This work characterizes, for the first time, the electric stimuli delivered to bone cellular tissues during in vitro experiments, when using three capacitive architectures: stripped, interdigitated and circular patterns. Computational models are presented that predict the influence of cell confluence, cosurface architecture, electrodes geometry, gap size between electrodes and power excitation on the stimuli delivered to cellular layers. The results demonstrate that these stimulators are able to deliver osteoconductive stimuli. Significant differences in stimuli distributions were observed for different stimulator designs and different external excitations. The thickness specification was found to be of utmost importance. In vitro experiments using an osteoblastic cell line highlight that cosurface stimulation at a low frequency can enhance osteoconductive responses, with some electrode-specific differences being found. A major feature of this type of work is that it enables future detailed analyses of stimuli distribution throughout more complex biological structures, such as tissues and organs, towards sophisticated biodevice personalization.

Gold is for the mistress, silver for the maid: Enhanced mechanical properties, osteoinduction and antibacterial activity due to iron doping of tricalcium phosphate bone cements. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2019; 94:798-810. [PMID: 30423766 PMCID: PMC6366449 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2018.10.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2018] [Revised: 09/17/2018] [Accepted: 10/04/2018] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Self-hardening calcium phosphate cements present ideal bone tissue substitutes from the standpoints of bioactivity and biocompatibility, yet they suffer from (a) weak mechanical properties, (b) negligible osteoinduction without the use of exogenous growth factors, and (c) a lack of intrinsic antibacterial activity. Here we attempt to improve on these deficiencies by studying the properties of self-setting Fe-doped bone-integrative cements containing two different concentrations of the dopant: 0.49 and 1.09 wt% Fe. The hardening process, which involved the transformation of Fe-doped β-tricalcium phosphate (Fe-TCP) to nanocrystalline brushite, was investigated in situ by continuously monitoring the cements using the Energy Dispersive X-Ray Diffraction technique. The setting time was 20 min and the hardening time 2 h, but it took 50 h for the cement to completely stabilize compositionally and mechanically. Still, compared to other similar systems, the phase transformation during hardening was relatively fast and it also followed a relatively simple reaction path, virtually free of complex intermediates and noisy background. Mössbauer spectrometry demonstrated that 57Fe atoms in Fe-TCP were located in two non-equivalent crystallographic sites and distributed over positions with a strong crystal distortion. The pronounced presence of ultrafine crystals in the final, brushite phase contributed to the reduction of the porosity and thereby to the enhancement of the mechanical properties. The compressive strength of the hardened TCP cements increased by more than twofold when Fe was added as a dopant, i.e., from 11.5 ± 0.5 to 24.5 ± 2.0 MPa. The amount of iron released from the cements in physiological media steadied after 10 days and was by an order of magnitude lower than the clinical threshold that triggers the toxic response. The cements exhibited osteoinductive activity, as observed from the elevated levels of expression of genes encoding for osteocalcin and Runx2 in both undifferentiated and differentiated MC3T3-E1 cells challenged with the cements. The osteoinductive effect was inversely proportional to the content of Fe ions in the cements, indicating that an excessive amount of iron can have a detrimental effect on the induction of bone growth by osteoblasts in contact with the cement. In contrast, the antibacterial activity of the cement in the agar assay increased against all four bacterial species analysed (E. coli, S. enteritidis, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus) in direct proportion with the concentration of Fe ions in it, indicating their key effect on the promotion of the antibacterial effect in this material. This effect was less pronounced in broth assays. Experiments involving co-incubation of cements with cells in an alternate magnetic radiofrequency field for 30 min demonstrated a good potential for the use of these magnetic cements in hyperthermia cancer therapies. Specifically, the population of human glioblastoma cells decreased six-fold at the 24 h time point following the end of the magnetic field treatment, while the population of the bone cancer cells dropped approximately twofold. The analysis of the MC3T3-E1 cell/cement interaction reiterated the effects of iron in the cement on the bone growth marker expression by showing signs of adverse effects on the cell morphology and proliferation only for the cement containing the higher concentration of Fe ions (1.09 wt%). Biological testing concluded that the effects of iron are beneficial from the perspective of a magnetic hyperthermia therapy and antibacterial prophylaxis, but its concentration in the material must be carefully optimized to avoid the adverse effects induced above a certain level of iron concentrations.

Abstract
The treatment and regeneration of bone defects caused by traumatism or diseases have not been completely addressed by current therapies. Lately, advanced tools and technologies have been successfully developed for bone tissue regeneration. Functional scaffolding materials such as biopolymers and bioresorbable fillers have gained particular attention, owing to their ability to promote cell adhesion, proliferation, and extracellular matrix production, which promote new bone growth. Here, we present novel biofunctional scaffolds for bone regeneration composed of silk fibroin (SF) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and incorporating Sr, Zn, and Mn, which were successfully developed using salt-leaching followed by a freeze-drying technique. The scaffolds presented a suitable pore size, porosity, and high interconnectivity, adequate for promoting cell attachment and proliferation. The degradation behavior and compressive mechanical strengths showed that SF/ionic-doped TCP scaffolds exhibit improved characteristics for bone tissue engineering when compared with SF scaffolds alone. The in vitro bioactivity assays using a simulated body fluid showed the growth of an apatite layer. Furthermore, in vitro assays using human adipose-derived stem cells presented different effects on cell proliferation/differentiation when varying the doping agents in the biofunctional scaffolds. The incorporation of Zn into the scaffolds led to improved proliferation, while the Sr- and Mn-doped scaffolds presented higher osteogenic potential as demonstrated by DNA quantification and alkaline phosphatase activity. The combination of Sr with Zn led to an influence on cell proliferation and osteogenesis when compared with single ions. Our results indicate that biofunctional ionic-doped composite scaffolds are good candidates for further in vivo studies on bone tissue regeneration.

The role of new zinc incorporated monetite cements on osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2017; 78:485-494.

Abstract
β-Tricalcium phosphate particles were sintered in the presence of different amounts (0-0.72mol) of zinc oxide (ZnO) to prepare zinc doped β-TCP (Znβ-TCP) particles for further use in novel monetite (DCPA: CaHPO4) zinc incorporated bone cements with osteogenic differentiation potential towards human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). XRD analysis of zinc incorporated cements prepared with β-TCP reagent particles doped with different amount of ZnO (i.e. 0.03, 0.09 and 0.18mol ZnO) revealed the presence of unreacted Znβ-TCP and monetite. Furthermore, it was shown that zinc ions preferentially occupied the β-TCP crystal lattice rather than the monetite one. Release experiments indicated a burst release of ions from the different fabricated cements during the first 24h of immersion with zinc concentrations ranging between 85 and 100% of the total concentration released over a period of 21days. Cell proliferation significantly increased (P<0.05) on zinc incorporated monetite respect to control samples (Zinc-free cement) at 7 and 14days post seeding. The expression of Runx-2 was significantly up regulated (P<0.05) in the case of cells seeded on monetite prepared with β-TCP doped with 0.03 moles of ZnO. On the other hand, the cell mineralization as well as the expression of osteogenic marker genes ALP and OSC decreased significantly (P<0.05) at 14days post cell seeding. In conclusion, these results suggest that the zinc ions released from the cements during the first 24h of culture played a critical role in regulating the osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs.

New cosurface capacitive stimulators for the development of active osseointegrative implantable devices. Sci Rep 2016; 6:30231.

Abstract
Non-drug strategies based on biophysical stimulation have been emphasized for the treatment and prevention of musculoskeletal conditions. However, to date, an effective stimulation system for intracorporeal therapies has not been proposed. This is particularly true for active intramedullary implants that aim to optimize osseointegration. The increasing demand for these implants, particularly for hip and knee replacements, has driven the design of innovative stimulation systems that are effective in bone-implant integration. In this paper, a new cosurface-based capacitive system concept is proposed for the design of implantable devices that deliver controllable and personalized electric field stimuli to target tissues. A prototype architecture of this system was constructed for in vitro tests, and its ability to deliver controllable stimuli was numerically analyzed. Successful results were obtained for osteoblastic proliferation and differentiation in the in vitro tests. This work provides, for the first time, a design of a stimulation system that can be embedded in active implantable devices for controllable bone-implant integration and regeneration. The proposed cosurface design holds potential for the implementation of novel and innovative personalized stimulatory therapies based on the delivery of electric fields to bone cells.

Abstract
Dopants play critical roles in controlling the physical, mechanical, degradation kinetics, and in vivo properties of calcium phosphates. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of silicon (Si) and zinc (Zn) dopants on the physico-mechanical and in vivo osteogenesis properties of brushite cements (BrCs) alone and in combination with insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). Addition of 0.5 wt% Si did not alter the setting time, β-TCP content, and compressive strength of BrCs significantly; however, 0.25 wt% Zn incorporation was accompanied by a significant decrease in mechanical strength from 4.78 ± 0.21 MPa for pure BrC to 3.78 ± 0.59 MPa and 3.28 ± 0.22 MPa for Zn-BrC and Si/Zn-BrC, respectively. The in vivo bone regeneration properties of doped BrCs alone and in combination with IGF-1 were assessed and compared using chronological radiography, histology, scanning electron microscopy and fluorochrome labeling at 2 and 4 months post implantation in a rabbit femoral defect model. Based on in vivo characterization focusing on osteogenesis and vasculogenesis, Si-BrC and Si/Zn-BrC showed the best performance followed by Zn-BrC and pure BrCs. Addition of IGF-1 further improved bone regeneration. Our findings confirm that addition of Si and/or Zn alters the physico-mechanical properties of BrCs and promotes the early stage in vivo osseointegration and bone remodeling properties.

Abstract
Brushite (dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, DCPD) cement, owing to its high solubility in physiological condition and ability to guide new bone formation, is widely used to treat bone defects. In the present study, we have evaluated the effects of poly ethylene glycol (PEG) addition on the setting time, compressive strength and in vitro biocompatibility of brushite cement. The brushite cements were prepared by mixing β-tricalcium phosphate [β-TCP, Ca(3)(PO(4))(2)] and monocalcium phosphate monohydrate [MCPM, Ca(H(2)PO(4))(2). H(2)O]. PEG was introduced at 2.0 and 5.0 wt% with the liquid. Introduction of PEG resulted in marginal increase in both initial and final setting time; however, significantly affected the compressive strength. Effects of PEG incorporation on in vitro biocompatibility of brushite cements were studied by using human fetal osteoblast cells (hFOB) cells. Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) images and immunohistochemical analysis indicated that pure and PEG incorporated brushite cement facilitates cell adhesion, proliferation and differentiation. Fewer cells expressed vinculin protein with increased PEG content in the cement. Cell proliferation was found to decrease with increased PEG concentration while the cell differentiation increased with PEG content. Our results provide a better understanding of in vitro biocompatibility of PEG added brushite cements that can be used to customize the cement compositions based on application need.
