Abstract
Chemobrionic systems have attracted great attention in material science for development of novel biomimetic materials. This study aims to design a new bioactive material by integrating biosilica into chemobrionic structure, which will be called biochemobrionic, and to comparatively investigate the use of both chemobrionic and biochemobrionic materials as bone scaffolds. Biosilica, isolated from Amphora sp. diatom, was integrated into chemobrionic structure, and a comprehensive set of analysis was conducted to evaluate their morphological, chemical, mechanical, thermal, and biodegradation properties. Then, the effects of both scaffolds on cell biocompatibility and osteogenic differentiation capacity were assessed. Cells attached to the scaffolds, spread out, and covered the entire surface, indicating the absence of cytotoxicity. Biochemobrionic scaffold exhibited a higher level of mineralization and bone formation than the chemobrionic structure due to the osteogenic activity of biosilica. These results present a comprehensive and pioneering understanding of the potential of (bio)chemobrionics for bone regeneration.

Heliyon 2024; 10:e25878. [PMID: 38384564 PMCID: PMC10878915 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e25878] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2023] [Revised: 02/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Bone tissue engineering (BTE) involves the design of three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds that aim to address current challenges of bone defect healing, such as limited donor availability, disease transmission risks, and the necessity for multiple invasive surgeries. Scaffolds can mimic natural bone structure to accelerate the mechanisms involved in the healing process. Herein, a crosslinked combination of biopolymers, including gelatin (GEL), chitosan (CS), and hyaluronic acid (HA), loaded with diatom (Di) and β-sitosterol (BS), is used to produce GCH-Di-S scaffold by freeze-drying method. The GCH scaffold possesses a uniform structure, is biodegradable and biocompatible, and exhibits high porosity and interconnected pores, all required for effective bone repair. The incorporation of Di within the scaffold contributes to the adjustment of porosity and degradation, as well as effectively enhancing the mechanical property and biomineralization. In vivo studies have confirmed the safety of the scaffold and its potential to stimulate the creation of new bone tissue. This is achieved by providing an osteoconductive platform for cell attachment, prompting calcification, and augmenting the proliferation of osteoblasts, which further contributes to angiogenesis and anti-inflammatory effects of BS.

Abstract
Diatom biosilica is an important natural source of porous silica, with three-dimensional ordered and nanopatterned structures referred to as frustules. The unique features of diatom frustules, such as their high specific surface area, thermal stability, biocompatibility, and adaptable surface chemistry, render diatoms valuable materials for high value-added applications. These attributes make diatoms an exceptional cost-effective raw material for industrial use. The functionalization of diatom biosilica surface improves its biophysical properties and increases the potential applications. This review focuses on the potential uses of diatom biosilica including traditional approaches and recent progress in biomedical applications. Not only well-studied drug delivery systems but also promising uses on bone regeneration and wound healing are covered. Furthermore, considerable aspects and possible future directions for the use of diatom biosilica materials are proposed to develop biomedical applications and merit further exploration.

Abstract
Ocean resources are a priceless repository of unique species and bioactive compounds with denouement properties that can be used in the fabrication of advanced biomaterials as new templates for supporting the cell culture envisaging tissue engineering approaches. The collagen of marine origin can be sustainably isolated from the underrated fish processing industry by-products, while silica and related materials can be found in the spicules of marine sponges and diatoms frustules. Aiming to address the potential of biomaterials composed from marine collagen and silica-based materials in the context of bone regeneration, four different 3D porous structure formulations (COL, COL:BG, COL:D.E, and COL:BS) were fabricated by freeze-drying. The skins of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) were used as raw materials for the collagen (COL) isolation, which was successfully characterized by SDS-PAGE, FTIR, CD, and amino acid analyses, and identified as a type I collagen, produced with a 1.5% yield and a preserved characteristic triple helix conformation. Bioactive glass 45S5 bioglass® (BG), diatomaceous earth (D.E.) powder, and biosilica (BS) isolated from the Axinella infundibuliformis sponge were chosen as silica-based materials, which were obtained as microparticles and characterized by distinct morphological features. The biomaterials revealed microporous structures, showing a porosity higher than 85%, a mean pore size range of 138-315 μm depending on their composition, with 70% interconnectivity which can be favorable for cell migration and ensure the needed nutrient supply. In vitro, biological assays were conducted by culturing L929 fibroblast-like cells, which confirmed not only the non-toxic nature of the developed biomaterials but also their capability to support cell adhesion and proliferation, particularly the COL:BS biomaterials, as observed by calcein-AM staining upon seven days of culture. Moreover, phalloidin and DAPI staining revealed well-spread cells, populating the entire construct. This study established marine collagen/silica biocomposites as potential scaffolds for tissue engineering, setting the basis for future studies, particularly envisaging the regeneration of non-load-bearing bone tissues.

Abstract
The application of three-dimensional printed porous titanium implants (TIs) is compromised in patients suffering from diabetes mellitus (DM), which disturbs the normal process of implant osseointegration, resulting in fixation failure. It was possibly because of reactive oxygen species (ROS) overproduction at the bone-implant interface. A silk fibroin-based hydroxyapatite (SF/HA) hybrid material emerged as a novel biological material for accelerating new bone formation. We proposed that the SF/HA hybrid coated titanium implant (SHT) could mitigate DM-mediated impaired osseointegration, which had never been reported previously. To test this assumption and further elucidate the mechanisms, primary rabbit osteoblasts were seeded on TIs or SHTs and cultured with normal serum, diabetic serum (DS), DS + N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) (a potent ROS inhibitor), and DS + LY294002 (a specific PI3K/Akt inhibitor) for osteoblast behavior examinations. An animal study was performed on diabetic rabbits implanted with the two kinds of implants for osseointegration tests. DM-mediated ROS overproduction caused osteoblastic biological dysfunctions and apoptotic injury, associated with suppression of PI3K/Akt signaling in osteoblasts cultured on a TI substrate. Of note, the SHT substrate significantly suppressed ROS overproduction under diabetic conditions, improved osteoblast functional recovery including ameliorative osteoblast adhesion and morphology, improved cellular proliferation and differentiation, and abrogated apoptosis, which exhibited the same effect as NAC administration on the TI. The in vitro results were further corroborated in vivo by enhanced osteogenesis and osseointegration of SHTs in diabetic rabbits. Moreover, the aforesaid promotive effects afforded by the SF/HA coating were totally abolished with administration of LY294002 for blocking PI3K/Akt signaling. The above results collectively demonstrated that the SF/HA hybrid coating significantly ameliorated DM-mediated impaired osseointegration of the TI via reactivation of the ROS-mediated PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. The hybrid coating elicited a novel surface biofunctionalization strategy to attain favorable clinical performance of TI in diabetics.

Abstract
Over the past decade, various composite materials fabricated using natural or synthetic biopolymers incorporated with bioceramic have been widely investigated for the regeneration of segmental bone defect. In the present study, nano-bioglass incorporated osteoconductive composite scaffolds were fabricated through polyelectrolyte complexation/phase separation and resuspension of separated complex in gelatin matrix. Developed scaffold exhibits controlled bioreactivity, minimize abrupt pH rise (~7.8), optimal swelling behavior (2.6+-3.1) and enhances mechanical strength (0.62 ± 0.18 MPa) under wet condition. Moreover, in-vitro cell study shows that the fabricated scaffold provide suitable template for cellular attachment, spreading, biomineralization and collagen based matrix deposition. Also, the developed scaffold was evaluated for biocompatibility and bone tissue regeneration potential through implantation in non-union segmental bone defect created in rabbit animal model. The obtained histological analysis indicates strong potential of the composite scaffold for bone tissue regeneration, vascularization and reconstruction of defects. Thus, the developed composite scaffold might be a suitable biomaterial for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Microcarrier cell scaffolds have potential as injectable cell delivery vehicles or as building blocks for tissue engineering. The use of small cell carriers allows for a 'bottom up' approach to tissue assembly when moulding microparticles into larger structures, which can facilitate the introduction of hierarchy by layering different matrices and cell types, while evenly distributing cells through the structure. In this work, silk fibroin (SF), purified from Bombyx mori cocoons, was blended with gelatin (G) to produce materials composed of varying ratios of the two components (SF: G 25:75, 50:50, and 75:25). Cell compatibility to these materials was first confirmed in two-dimensional culture and found to be equivalent to standard tissue culture plastic, and better than SF or G alone. The mechanical properties of the blends were investigated and the blended materials were found to have increased Young's moduli over SF alone. Microcarriers of SF/G blends with defined diameters were generated in a reproducible manner through the use of an axisymmetric flow focussing device, constructed from off-the-shelf parts and fittings. These SF/G microcarriers supported adhesion of rat mesenchymal stem cells with high degrees of efficiency under dynamic culture conditions and, after culturing in osteogenic differentiation medium, cells were shown to have characteristics typical of osteoblasts. This work illustrates that microcarriers composed of SF/G blends are promising building blocks for osteogenic tissue engineering.

Abstract
Human bones have unique structures and characteristics, and replacing a natural bone in the case of bone fracture or bone diseases is a very complicated problem. The main goal of this paper was to summarize the recent research on polymer materials as bone substitutes and for bone repair. Bone treatment methods, bone substitute materials as well as their advantages and drawbacks, and manufacturing methods were reviewed. Biopolymers are the most promising materials in the field of artificial bones and using biopolymers with the shape memory effect can improve the integration of an artificial bone into the human body by better mimicking the structure and properties of natural bones, decreasing the invasiveness of surgical procedures by producing deployable implants. It has been shown that the application of the rapid prototyping technology for artificial bones allows the customization of bone substitutes for a patient and the creation of artificial bones with a complex structure.

Abstract
Regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) is emerging as promising biomaterial for regeneration, drug delivery and optical devices, with continued demand for mild, all-aqueous processes to control microstructure and the performance. Here, temperature control of assembly kinetics was introduced to prepare the water-insoluble scaffolds from neutral aqueous solutions of RSF protein. Higher temperatures were used to accelerate the assembly rate of the silk fibroin protein chains in aqueous solution and during the lyophilization process, resulting in water-insoluble scaffold formation. The scaffolds were mainly composed of amorphous states of the silk fibroin chains, endowing softer mechanical properties. These scaffolds also showed nanofibrous structures, improved cell proliferation in vitro and enhanced neovascularization and tissue regeneration in vivo than previously reported silk fibroin scaffolds. These results suggest utility of silk scaffolds in soft tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Chitosan, a natural biopolymer with osteoconductive properties is widely investigated to generate scaffolds for bone tissue engineering applications. However, chitosan based scaffolds lacks in mechanical strength and structural stability in hydrated condition and thereby limits its application for bone tissue regeneration. Thus in the present study, to overcome the limitations associated with chitosan based scaffolds, we fabricated polyelectrolyte complexation mediated composite scaffold of chitosan and chondroitin sulfate incorporated with nano-sized bioglass. Developed scaffolds were successfully characterized for various morphological, physico-chemical, mechanical and apatite forming properties using XRD, FT-IR, FE-SEM and TEM. It was observed that polyelectrolyte complexation followed by incorporation of bioglass significantly enhances mechanical strength, reduces excessive swelling behavior and enhances structural stability of the scaffold in hydrated condition. Also, in-vitro cell adhesion, spreading, viability and cytotoxity were investigated to evaluate the cell supportive properties of the developed scaffolds. Furthermore, alkaline phosphatase activity, biomineralization and collagen type I expression were observed to be significantly higher over the composite scaffold indicating its superior osteogenic potential. More importantly, in-vivo iliac crest bone defect study revealed that implanted composite scaffold facilitate tissue regeneration and integration with native bone tissue. Thus, developed composite scaffold might be a suitable biomaterial for bone tissue engineering applications.

Effect of strontium substitution on the material properties and osteogenic potential of 3D powder printed magnesium phosphate scaffolds. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2019; 98:1145-1158. [PMID: 30812998 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2019.01.053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2018] [Revised: 01/11/2019] [Accepted: 01/12/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
3D powder printing is a versatile method for the fabrication of individual bone implants and was used for the processing of in vivo degradable ceramic scaffolds based on ammonium magnesium phosphate hexahydrate (struvite). In this study, synergetic effects could be achieved by the substitution of magnesium phosphate cements with strontium carbonate. This substitution resulted in 8.2 wt%, 16.4 wt%, and 24.6 wt% Sr2+ doped scaffolds, with a 1.9-3.1 times increased radiopacity compared to pure struvite. The maximal compressive strength of (16.1 ± 1.1) MPa found for strontium substituted magnesium phosphate was in the range of cancelleous bone, which makes these 3D printed structures suitable for medical application in low-load-bearing bone areas. In an ion release study over a course of 18 days, the release of strontium, magnesium, calcium, and phosphate ions from scaffolds was analyzed by means of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Independent of the scaffold composition the Mg2+ concentrations (83-499 mg/l) continuously increased in the cell media. The Sr2+ release varied between 4.3 μg/day and 15.1 μg/day per g scaffold, corresponding to a Sr2+ concentration in media between 1.14 mg/l and 7.24 mg/l. Moreover, decreasing calcium and phosphate concentrations indicated the precipitation of an amorphous calcium phosphate phase. The superior osteogenic properties of strontium substituted magnesium phosphate, e.g. the increase of osteoblast activity and cell number and the simultaneous suppression of osteoclast differentiation could be verified in vitro by means of WST-assay, TRAP-staining, and SEM imaging.
