Abstract
β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) is one the most used and potent synthetic bone graft substitute. It is not only osteoconductive, but also osteoinductive. These properties, combined with its cell-mediated resorption, allow full bone defects regeneration. Its clinical outcome is sometimes considered to be "unpredictable", possibly due to a poor understanding of β-TCP physico-chemical properties: β-TCP crystallographic structure is not fully uncovered; recent results suggest that sintered β-TCP is coated with a Ca-rich alkaline phase; β-TCP apatite-forming ability and osteoinductivity may be enhanced by a hydrothermal treatment; β-TCP grain size and porosity are strongly modified by the presence of minute amounts of β-calcium pyrophosphate or hydroxyapatite impurities. The aim of the present article is to provide a critical, but still rather comprehensive review of the current state of knowledge on β-TCP, with a strong focus on its synthesis and physico-chemical properties, and their link to the in vivo response. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The present review documents the richness, breadth, and interest of the research devoted to β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). β-TCP is synthetic, osteoconductive, osteoinductive, and its resorption is cell-mediated, thus making it one of the most potent bone graft substitutes. This comprehensive review reveals that there are a number of aspects, such as surface chemistry, crystallography, or stoichiometry deviations, that are still poorly understood. As such, β-TCP is still an exciting scientific playground despite a 50 year long history and > 200 yearly publications.

Abstract
Gelatin (Ge) based fibers have been produced by electrospinning with a non-toxic solvent for preparing membranes usable in maxillofacial surgery. Ge and Ge/sodium hyaluronate (SH) nanofibers were successfully electrospun to produce membranes whose thickness was around 150 to 200μm. The mean fiber diameter reached a maximum of 660nm for Ge fibers and 210nm for Ge/SH fibers. The presence of Ge and SH was confirmed in the membranes by Raman spectroscopy. Ge membranes had low mechanical properties and only small samples of 0.5cm in size could be retrieved from the collector as larger sample tended to tear and break. Ge/SH membranes could be retrieved from the collector slightly easily. Membranes could be handled carefully but in vivo implantation could not be planned due to poor mechanical resistance. Crosslinking by glutaraldehyde vapors reduced the mean porosity of Ge membranes; it totally prevents membranes to be retrieved from the collector. Beta tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) particles were added with Ge during electrospinning to increase osseointegration of the membranes and promote bone formation. β-TCP particles formed agglomerates outside the fibers, and we could not obtain β-TCP particles inside the Ge fibers due to their low diameter. In general, electrospun membranes lacked reproducibility. Despite the great interest of Ge-based membranes and Ge/β-TCP membranes, the low mechanical properties of the fibers, the lack of reproducibility and the difficulty to retrieve the membranes from the collector did not allow our biomaterials to be implanted or to be envisaged for industrial production.

Abstract
Cross-linked hyaluronic acid (HyAR) increases the local concentration of growth factors. We compared β-TCP osseointegration in old and young ewes with/without HyAR addition. A blind tunnel was drilled on the medial femoral condyle of each knee in nine young and nine old ewes and was filled with β-TCP, β-TCP + HyAR or left unfilled. Double labeling with calcein allowed histodynamic analysis. Ewes were sacrificed at 84 days and the knees were harvested. MicroCT provided histomorphometric parameters: trabecular bone volume, residual volume of biomaterial. Histodynamic parameters were: mineralization rate, mineralized surfaces, bone formation rate. A non-parametric ANOVA and post hoc test analyzed differences between subgroups. Osseointegration of β-TCP was similar in the aged/young grafted groups. Trabecular bone volume was significantly increased versus ungrafted animals (p < 0.001). There were no significant difference for bone volume, residual volume of biomaterial and histodynamic parameters when a single parameter was considered but additional effects of β-TCP and HyAR were evidenced by 3D analysis. Addition of HyAR to ß-TCP does not significantly increase bone volume but tends to increase histodynamic parameters. However, considering the reduction of osteoblastic activity in aged animals, β-TCP, and HyAR boosts osteoblastic activity. HyAR leads to an equivalent response between young and old animals.

Abstract
Biomaterials are used in the granular form to fill small bone defects. Granules can be prepared with a grinder from trabecular bone samples or provided as synthetic biomaterials by industry. Granules occupy the 3D-space and create a macroporosity allowing invasion of vascular and bone cells when the inter-granular pores are larger than 300 µm. We compared the 3D-porosity of granule stacks obtained or prepared with nine biomaterials Osteopure® , Lubboc® , Bio-Oss® , CopiOs® , TCP Dental® , TCP Dental HP® , KeraOs® , and TCH® in comparison with that of human trabecular bone. For each biomaterial, two sizes of granules were analyzed: 250-1000 and 1000-2000 µm. Microcomputed tomography determined porosity and microarchitectural characteristics of granular stacks and Raman microspectroscopy was used to analyze their composition. Stacks of 250-1000 µm granules had a much lower porosity than 1000-2000 µm granules and the maximum frequency of pores was always centered at 200-250 µm. One biomaterial contained substantial amount of cortical bone (Bio-Oss® ). The highest porosity and pore size was obtained with TCP Dental HP. Raman spectroscopy found differences in biomaterials of the same composition. Stacks of granules represent 3D scaffolds resembling trabecular bone with an interconnected porous microarchitecture. Small granules have created pores <300 µm in diameter; this can interfere with vascular colonization. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Biomed Mater Res Part B: Appl Biomater, 107B: 415-423, 2019.

Abstract
Sinus lift elevation restores bone mass at the maxilla in edentulate patients before the placement of dental implants. It consists of opening the lateral side of the sinus and grafting beta-tricalcium phosphate granules (β-TCP) under the olfactory membrane. Bone biopsies were obtained in five patients after 60 weeks. They were embedded undecalcified in poly(methyl methacrylate) (pMMA); blocks were analyzed by nanocomputed tomography (nanoCT); specific areas were studied by Raman microspectroscopy. Remnants of β-TCP were osseointegrated and covered with mineralized bone; osteoid tissue was also filling the inner porosity. Macrophages having engulfed numerous β-TCP grains were observed in marrow spaces. β-TCP was identified by nanoCT as osseointegrated particles and as granules in the cytoplasm of macrophages. Raman microspectroscopy permitted to compare the spectra of β-TCP and bone in different areas. The ratio of the ~820 cm-1 band of pMMA (-CH2 groups) on the ν1 phosphate band at 960 cm-1 reflected tissue hydration because water was substituted by MMA during histological processing. In bone, the ratio of the ~960 cm-1 phosphate to the amide 1 band and the ratio ν2 phosphate band by the 1240-1250 amide III band reflect the mineralization degree. Specific bands of β-TCP were found in osseointegrated β-TCP granules and in the grains phagocytized by the macrophages. The hydration degree was maximal for β-TCP phagocytized by macrophages. Raman microspectroscopy associated with nanoCT is a powerful tool in the analysis of the biomaterial degradation and osseointegration.

Morphologie 2017; 101:173-179. [PMID: 28501353 DOI: 10.1016/j.morpho.2017.03.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2016] [Revised: 01/25/2017] [Accepted: 03/21/2017] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Autogenous bone graft (autograft) remains the gold standard in the treatment of many orthopedic problems. However, graft harvest can lead to perioperative morbidity and increased cost. We tested the hypothesis that an osteoconductive matrix, beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), would be a safe and effective alternative to autograft alone. Beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) is considered as one of the most promising biomaterials for bone reconstruction. This study analyzes the outcomes of patients who received β-TCP as bone substitutes in orthopedic surgery. METHODS A total of 50 patients were enrolled in a controlled, non-inferiority clinical trial to compare the safety and efficacy of β-TCP (25 patients) with those of autograft (25 patients) in indications requiring usually autograft. These 50 patients were categorized according to the etiology and morphology of the 54 bone defects resulting from elective surgical procedures, such as 34 open-wedge high tibial osteotomies, and 20 osteonecrosis treatments with core decompression. Radiographic (healing process with or without integration of β-TCP), clinical (no other surgical procedure), functional outcomes and safety (with or without complications) were assessed through fifty-two weeks postoperatively. RESULTS With regard to the primary endpoint (radiographic evolution), the fusion rate of the 34 open-wedge osteotomies was 100% (17 among 17) for patients in the group with β-TCP compared with 94% (16 among 17) for patients in the autograft group. For the 20 cavitary defects (osteonecrosis), the radiographic union rates, as determined by the presence of osseous bridging, were 100% for patients in the group with β-TCP and 100% for those in the autograft group. Clinically at one year, all quality-of-life and functional outcome data supported non-inferiority of β-TCP compared with autograft, and patients in the β-TCP group were found to have less pain and an improved safety profile. CONCLUSIONS Treatment with β-TCP resulted in comparable fusion rates, less pain and fewer side effects as compared with treatment with autograft. This study established clinical parameters where the β-TCP alone can successfully support the osteogenic process.
