Abstract
Intelligent shape memory polymer can be potentially used in manufacturing implantable devices that enables a benign variation of implant dimensions with the external stimuli, thus effectively lowering insertion forces and evading associated risks. However, in surgical implantation, biomaterials-associated infection has imposed a huge burden to healthcare system that urgently requires an efficacious replacement of antibiotic usages. Preventing the initial attachment and harvesting a biocidal function upon native surfaces may be deemed as a preferable strategy to tackle the issues of bacterial infection. Herein, a functionalized polylactic acid (PLA) composite membrane assembled with graphene (GE, a widely used photothermal agent) was fabricated through a blending process and then polydimethylsiloxane utilized as binders to pack hydrophobic SiO2 tightly onto polymer surface (denoted as PLA-GE/SiO2). Such an active platform exhibited a moderate shape-memory performance upon near-infrared (NIR) light stimulation, which was feasible for programmed deformation and shape recovery. Particularly stirring was that PLA-GE/SiO2 exerted a pronounced bacteria-killing effect under NIR illumination, 99.9 % of E. coli and 99.8 % of S. aureus were effectively eradicated in a lean period of 5 min. Furthermore, the obtained composite membrane manifested excellent antiadhesive properties, resulting in a bacteria-repelling efficacy of up to 99 % for both E. coli and S. aureus species. These findings demonstrated the potential value of PLA-GE/SiO2 as a shape-restorable platform in "kill&repel" integration strategy, further expanding its applications for clinical anti-infective treatment.

Study on the mechanism of ROS-induced oxidative stress injury and the broad-spectrum antimicrobial performance of nickel ion-doped V 6O 13 powder. Sci Rep 2024; 14:22374. [PMID: 39333647 PMCID: PMC11436805 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-71959-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2024] [Accepted: 09/02/2024] [Indexed: 09/29/2024] Open
Abstract
In this study, pure V6O13 and nickel ion-doped V6O13 powders were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal-calcination method, and their broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties and mechanisms were investigated. The crystal structure, morphology, and chemical state of the powders were thoroughly analyzed by XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS, and UV-Vis. Their antimicrobial properties and mechanisms were evaluated by the ring of inhibition, bio-SEM, live-dead cell staining, ROS detection, and protein leakage experiments. The results showed that nickel ion doping modulated the oxygen defects of V6O13, generating more reactive oxygen species and leading to more severe oxidative stress, resulting in a broad-spectrum and highly efficient antimicrobial effect. This study also revealed the antimicrobial mechanism based on oxygen defect -induced ROS production, which caused cellular oxidative stress damage, leading to leakage of intracellular substances and cell death. This study not only demonstrates the potential of V6O13 as an efficient antimicrobial agent but also provides a strong experimental basis and theoretical support for the engineering design and optimization of novel antimicrobial materials by modulating material defects through ion doping.

Abstract
The increasing prevalence of spinal disorders worldwide necessitates advanced treatments, particularly interbody fusion for severe cases that are unresponsive to non-surgical interventions. This procedure, especially 360° lumbar interbody fusion, employs an interbody cage, pedicle screw-and-rod instrumentation, and autologous bone graft (ABG) to enhance spinal stability and promote fusion. Despite significant advancements, a persistent 10% incidence of non-union continues to result in compromised patient outcomes and escalated healthcare costs. Innovations in lumbar stabilisation seek to mimic the properties of natural bone, with evolving implant materials like titanium (Ti) and polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and their composites offering new prospects. Additionally, biomimetic cages featuring precisely engineered porosities and interconnectivity have gained traction, as they enhance osteogenic differentiation, support osteogenesis, and alleviate stress-shielding. However, the limitations of ABG, such as harvesting morbidities and limited fusion capacity, have spurred the exploration of sophisticated solutions involving advanced bone graft substitutes. Currently, demineralised bone matrix and ceramics are in clinical use, forming the basis for future investigations into novel bone graft substitutes. Bioglass, a promising newcomer, is under investigation despite its observed rapid absorption and the potential for foreign body reactions in preclinical studies. Its clinical applicability remains under scrutiny, with ongoing research addressing challenges related to burst release and appropriate dosing. Conversely, the well-documented favourable osteogenic potential of growth factors remains encouraging, with current efforts focused on modulating their release dynamics to minimise complications. In this evidence-based narrative review, we provide a comprehensive overview of the evolving landscape of non-degradable spinal implants and bone graft substitutes, emphasising their applications in lumbar spinal fusion surgery. We highlight the necessity for continued research to improve clinical outcomes and enhance patient well-being.

Antimicrobial Effects of Metal Coatings or Physical, Chemical Modifications of Titanium Dental Implant Surfaces for Prevention of Peri-Implantitis: A Systematic Review of In Vivo Studies. Antibiotics (Basel) 2024; 13:908. [PMID: 39335082 PMCID: PMC11428254 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics13090908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2024] [Revised: 09/08/2024] [Accepted: 09/16/2024] [Indexed: 09/30/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Peri-implantitis poses a significant challenge for implant dentistry due to its association with bacterial colonization on implant surfaces and the complexity of its management. This systematic review aims to assess evidence from in vivo studies regarding the antimicrobial efficacy of titanium (Ti) dental implant surfaces following physical/chemical modifications or the application of various metal element coatings in preventing bacterial growth associated with peri-implantitis. Materials and Methods: A literature review was conducted across four scientific databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science), encompassing in vivo studies published between 2013 and 2024, and 18 reports were included in the systematic review. Results: The findings suggest that titanium dental implant surfaces, following physical/chemical modifications and metal element coatings, exhibit antimicrobial effects against bacteria associated with peri-implantitis in humans and various animal models. Conclusions: The reviewed studies indicated a reduction in bacterial colonization, diminished biofilm formation, and decreased signs of inflammation in the peri-implant tissues, which provides evidence that physical/chemical alterations on titanium dental implant surfaces or metal element coatings, like silver (Ag), zinc (Zn), magnesium (Mg), and copper (Cu), demonstrate antimicrobial properties in in vivo studies. However, caution is warranted when translating findings to clinical practice due to methodological disparities and high bias risks. Further larger-scale clinical trials are imperative to assess their long-term efficacy and validate their clinical applicability.

Abstract
To functionalize the NiTi alloy, multifunctional innovative nanocoatings of Ag-TiO2 and Ag-TiO2 doped with hydroxyapatite were engineered on its surface. The coatings were thoroughly characterized, focusing on surface topography and key functional properties, including adhesion, surface wettability, biocompatibility, antibacterial activity, and corrosion resistance. The electrochemical corrosion kinetics in a simulated body fluid and the mechanisms were analyzed. The coatings exhibited hydrophilic properties and were biocompatible with fibroblast and osteoblast cells while also demonstrating antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. epidermidis. The coatings adhered strongly to the NiTi substrate, with superior adhesion observed in the hydroxyapatite-doped layers. Conversely, the Ag-TiO2 layers showed enhanced corrosion resistance.

Abstract
Introduction This investigation delves into the mechanical behaviour of titanium dental implants, a preferred choice for tooth replacement due to their superior reliability over alternative materials. The phenomenon of implant loosening, frequently induced by masticatory activities, underscores the significance of surface modification or texturing to bolster the interaction between the implant and bone tissue. This research comprehensively examines the effects of four distinct surface texturing techniques and five varied bone quality conditions on the biomechanical performance of these implants. Methods The scope of this study is delineated by its focus on implants of diameters 4 mm and 6 mm, with lengths measuring 9 mm and 12 mm respectively. Furthermore, the analysis incorporates the evaluation of four different coatings-hydroxyapatite, HA3TO, HA3Sr, and HA1.5TO1.5Sr-to investigate their efficacy in enhancing the osseointegration process on textured surfaces of dental implants. Results The experimental design entails the assessment of stress distribution within the implant and its coatings, alongside the strain exerted on the surrounding cancellous bone, under the conditions of an average vertical biting force. A comparative analysis between solid implants and those subjected to surface texturing techniques has been conducted. This comparison elucidates the advantageous microstrain profiles presented by certain textured surfaces, which are deemed more conducive to optimal osseointegration. Discussion Notably, across all examined textures, the application of hydroxyapatite (HA) and a modified HA composition (HA1.5TO1.5Sr) demonstrates significant improvements in mechanical stability, particularly in scenarios involving weak and very weak bone conditions. This study's findings contribute to the ongoing advancement in dental implant technology, emphasizing the critical role of surface texturing and coating strategies in promoting implant longevity and integration within the biomechanical environment of the human oral cavity.

Abstract
In this paper, the Ti6Al4V alloy surface was modified via ceramic conversion treatment (CCT) with or without a pre-deposited silver layer. After characterizing the surface morphologies, microstructure and phase constituents of the ceramic oxide layer formed at 620 °C, we investigated the surface hardness and the cross-sectional nano-hardness profile under the oxide layer. The static load-bearing capacity of the oxide layers was examined by applying discrete loads via a Vickers indenter and observing the indentations. A scratch test was used to evaluate the load-bearing capacity and the adhesion/cohesion of the oxide layers. The wettability of the surface changed due to the incorporation of silver and the change of surface morphology. Reciprocating friction and wear test was used to assess the tribological properties. Small and dispersed silver nanoparticles and clusters were found in the oxide layer of the Ag pre-deposited Ti6Al4V samples, and they had much better tribological properties in terms of reduced coefficient of friction and wear volume. With the assistance of silver, the efficiency of the CCT was significantly improved.

Abstract
Transcutaneous implants that penetrate through skin or mucosa are susceptible to bacteria invasion and lack proper soft tissue sealing. Traditional antibacterial strategies primarily focus on bacterial eradication, but excessive exposure to bactericidal agents can induce noticeable tissue damage. Herein, a rechargeable model (HPI-Ti) was constructed using perylene polyimide, an aqueous battery material, achieving temporal-sequence regulation of bacterial killing and soft tissue sealing. Charge storage within HPI-Ti is achieved after galvanostatic charge, and chemical discharge is initiated when immersed in physiological environments. During the early discharge stage, post-charging HPI-Ti demonstrates an antibacterial rate of 99.96 ± 0.01 % for 24 h, preventing biofilm formation. Contact-dependent violent electron transfer between bacteria and the material causes bacteria death. In the later discharge stage, the attenuated discharging status creates a gentler electron-transfer micro-environment for fibroblast proliferation. After discharge, the antibacterial activity can be reinstated by recharge against potential reinfection. The antibacterial efficacy and soft tissue compatibility were verified in vivo. These results demonstrate the potential of the charge-transfer-based model in reconciling antibacterial efficacy with tissue compatibility.

Abstract
Titanium dental implants with various restorative options are popular for replacing missing teeth due to their comfortable fit, excellent stability, natural appearance, and impressive track record in clinical settings. However, challenges such as potential issues with osseointegration, peri-implant bone loss, and peri-implantitis might lead to implant failure, causing concern for patients and dental staff. Surface modification has the potential to significantly enhance the success rate of titanium implants and meet the needs of clinical applications. This involves the application of various physical, chemical, and bioactive coatings, as well as adjustments to implant surface topography, offering significant potential for enhancing implant outcomes in terms of osseointegration and antimicrobial properties. Many surface modification methods have been employed to improve titanium implants, showcasing the diversity of approaches in this field including sandblasting, acid etching, plasma spraying, plasma immersion ion implantation, physical vapor deposition, electrophoretic deposition, electrochemical deposition, anodization, microarc oxidation, laser treatments, sol-gel method, layer-by-layer self-assembly technology, and the adsorption of biomolecules. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the surface modification methods for titanium implants to address issues with insufficient osseointegration and implant-related infections. It encompasses the physical, chemical, and biological aspects of these methods to provide researchers and dental professionals with a robust resource to aid them in their study and practical use of dental implant materials, ensuring they are thoroughly knowledgeable and well-prepared for their endeavors.

Abstract
The extensive use of polymers in the medical field has facilitated the development of various devices and implants, contributing to the restoration of organ function. However, despite their advantages such as biocompatibility and robustness, these materials often face challenges like bacterial contamination and subsequent inflammation, leading to implant-associated infections (IAI). Integrating implants effectively is crucial to prevent bacterial colonization and reduce inflammatory responses. To overcome these major issues, surface chemical modifications have been extensively explored. Indeed, click chemistry, and particularly, copper (I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction has emerged as a promising approach for surface functionalization without affecting material bulk properties. Curcumin, known for its diverse biological activities, suffers from low solubility and stability. To enhance its bioavailability, bioconjugation strategy has garnered attention in recent years. This study represents pioneering work in immobilizing curcumin derivative onto polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surfaces, aiming to combat bacterial adhesion, inflammation and coagulation. Before curcumin derivative bioconjugation, a fluorophore, dansyl derivative, was employed in order to monitor and determine the efficiency of the proposed methodology. Previous surface chemical modifications were required for the immobilization of both dansyl and curcumin derivatives. Ultraviolet-Visible (UV-Vis) demonstrated the amidation functionalization of PET surface. Other surface characterization techniques including X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transformed Infrared (ATR-FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and contact angle, among others, confirmed also the conjugation of both dansyl and curcumin derivatives. On the other hand, different biological assays corroborated that curcumin derivative immobilized PET surfaces do not exhibit cytotoxicity effect. Additionally, corresponding inflammation test were performed, indicating that these polymeric surfaces do not produce inflammation and, when curcumin derivative is immobilized, they decrease the inflammation marker level (IL-6). Moreover, the bacterial growth of both Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria were measured, demonstrating that the immobilization of curcumin derivative on PET provided antibacterial properties to the material. Finally, hemolysis rate analysis and whole blood clotting assay demonstrated the antithrombogenic effect of PET-Cur surfaces as well as no hemolysis concern in the fabricated functional surfaces.

Porous titanium scaffolds modified with Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework (ZIF-8) with enhanced osteogenic activity for the prevention of implant-associated infections. Front Chem 2024; 12:1452670. [PMID: 39268004 PMCID: PMC11390653 DOI: 10.3389/fchem.2024.1452670] [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: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 07/26/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024] Open
Abstract
In this study, zeolitic imidazolate framework 8 (ZIF-8) was coated on porous Ti6Al4V scaffolds, either bare or previously modified using hydroxyapatite (HA) or HA and gelatin (HAgel), via a growing single-step method in aqueous media using two contact times at 6 h and 24 h. The coated scaffolds termed ZIF-8@Ti, ZIF-8@HA/Ti, and ZIF-8@HAgel/Ti were characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), and molecular plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (MP-AES). In order to assess the cell proliferation rate, the cytocompatibility of the scaffolds was evaluated in primary osteoblasts (hOBs) using alamarBlue assay, while the osteoconductivity was analyzed in hOBs using a real-time approach, evaluating the expression of secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1). Osteopontin, which is the protein encoded by this gene, represents the major non-collagenous bone protein that binds tightly to HA. The scaffolds were shown to be non-cytotoxic based on hOB proliferation at all time points of analysis (24 h and 72 h). In hOB cultures, the scaffolds induced the upregulation of SPP1 with different fold changes. Some selected scaffolds were assayed in vitro for their antibacterial potential against Staphylococcus epidermidis; the scaffolds coated with ZIF-8 crystals, regardless of the presence of HA and gelatin, strongly inhibited bacterial adhesion to the materials and reduced bacterial proliferation in the culture medium, demonstrating the suitable release of ZIF-8 in a bioactive form. These experiments suggest that the innovative scaffolds, tested herein, provide a good microenvironment for hOB adhesion, viability, and osteoconduction with effective prevention of S. epidermidis adhesion.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is the primary cause of delayed wound healing. Infected wounds suffer from a series of harmful factors in the harsh wound microenvironment (WME), greatly damaging their potential for tissue regeneration. Herein, a novel probiotic biofilm-based antibacterial strategy is proposed through experimentation. Firstly, a series of coaxial polycaprolactone (PCL) / silk fibroin (SF) nanofiber films (termed as PSN-n, n = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0, respectively) are prepared by coaxial electrospinning and their physiochemical properties are comprehensively characterized. Afterward, the PSN-1.5 is selected and co-cultured with L. paracasei to allow the formation of probiotic biofilm. The probiotic biofilm-loaded PSN-1.5 nanofiber film (termed as PSNL-1.5) exhibits relatively good broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, biocompatibility, and enhanced pro-regenerative capability by immunoregulation of M2 macrophage. A wound healing assay is performed using an S. aureus-infected skin defect model. The application effect of PSNL-1.5 is significantly better than that of a commercial nano‑silver burn & scald dressing (Anson®), revealing huge potential for clinical translation. This study is of significant novelty in demonstrating the antibacterial and pro-regenerative abilities of probiotic biofilms. The product of this study will be extensively used for treating infected wounds or other wounds.

Abstract
This study delves into the potential of amorphous titanium oxide (aTiO2) nano-coating to enhance various critical aspects of non-Ti-based metallic orthopedic implants. These implants, such as medical-grade stainless steel (SS), are widely used for orthopedic devices that demand high strength and durability. The aTiO2nano-coating, deposited via magnetron sputtering, is a unique attempt to improve the osteogenesis, the inflammatory response, and to reduce bacterial colonization on SS substrates. The study characterized the nanocoated surfaces (SS-a TiO2) in topography, roughness, wettability, and chemical composition. Comparative samples included uncoated SS and sandblasted/acid-etched Ti substrates (Ti). The biological effects were assessed using human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and primary murine macrophages. Bacterial tests were carried out with two aerobic pathogens (S. aureusandS. epidermidis) and an anaerobic bacterial consortium representing an oral dental biofilm. Results from this study provide strong evidence of the positive effects of the aTiO2nano-coating on SS surfaces. The coating enhanced MSC osteoblastic differentiation and exhibited a response similar to that observed on Ti surfaces. Macrophages cultured on aTiO2nano-coating and Ti surfaces showed comparable anti-inflammatory phenotypes. Most significantly, a reduction in bacterial colonization across tested species was observed compared to uncoated SS substrates, further supporting the potential of aTiO2nano-coating in biomedical applications. The findings underscore the potential of magnetron-sputtering deposition of aTiO2nano-coating on non-Ti metallic surfaces such as medical-grade SS as a viable strategy to enhance osteoinductive factors and decrease pathogenic bacterial adhesion. This could significantly improve the performance of metallic-based biomedical devices beyond titanium.

Abstract
Implant-associated infections and delayed osseointegration are major challenges for the clinical success of titanium implants. To enhance antibacterial effects and promote early osseointegration, we developed a synergistic photothermal (PTT)/photodynamic (PDT) therapy strategy based on near-infrared (NIR) responsive biomimetic micro/nano titanate/TiO2-X heterostructure coatings (KMNW and NaMNS) in situ constructed on the surface of titanium implants. Specifically, KMNW and NaMNS significantly enhanced photothermal conversion capabilities, achieving localized high temperatures of 48-51 °C and promoting substantial amounts of reactive oxygen species production under 808 nm irradiation. In vitro antibacterial experiments demonstrated that KMNW achieved the highest antibacterial rates against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, at 98.78 and 98.33% respectively. Moreover, by mimicking the three-dimensional fibrous network of the extracellular matrix during bone healing, both KMNW and NaMNS markedly promoted the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts. In vivo implantation studies further confirmed these findings, with KMNW and NaMNS exhibiting superior antibacterial performance under NIR irradiation─94.45% for KMNW and 92.66% for NaMNS. Moreover, KMNW and NaMNS also significantly promoted new bone formation and improved osseointegration in vivo. This study presents a promising PTT/PDT therapeutic strategy for dentistry and orthopedics by employing NIR-responsive biomimetic coatings to combat implant-associated infection and accelerate osseointegration.

Abstract
Resistant biofilms formed by Staphylococcus aureus on medical devices pose a constant medical threat. A promising alternative to tackle this problem is photodynamic inactivation (PDI). This study focuses on a polyurethane (PU) material with an antimicrobial surface consisting of a composite based on silicate, polycation, and erythrosine B (EryB). The composite was characterized using X-ray diffraction and spectroscopy methods. Anti-biofilm effectiveness was determined after PDI by calculation of CFU mL-1. The liquid PU precursors penetrated a thin silicate film resulting in effective binding of the PU/silicate composite and the PU bulk phases. The incorporation of EryB into the composite matrix did not significantly alter the spectral properties or photoactivity of the dye. A green LED lamp and laser were used for PDI, while irradiation was performed for different periods. Preliminary experiments with EryB solutions on planktonic cells and biofilms optimized the conditions for PDI on the nanocomposite materials. Significant eradication of S. aureus biofilm on the composite surface was achieved by irradiation with an LED lamp and laser for 1.5 h and 10 min, respectively, resulting in a 10,000-fold reduction in biofilm growth. These results demonstrate potential for the development of antimicrobial polymer surfaces for modification of medical materials and devices.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the antimicrobial potential of strontium (Sr)-functionalized wafers against multiple bacteria associated with per-implant infections, in both mono- and multispecies biofilms. MATERIALS AND METHODS The bactericidal and bacteriostatic effect of silicon wafers functionalized with a strontium titanium oxygen coating (Sr-Ti-O) or covered only with Ti (controls) against several bacteria, either grown as a mono-species or multispecies biofilms, was assessed using a bacterial viability assay and a plate counting method. Mono-species biofilms were assessed after 2 and 24 h, while the antimicrobial effect on multispecies biofilms was assessed at Days 1, 3, and 6. The impact of Sr functionalization on the total percentage of Porphyromonas gingivalis in the multispecies biofilm, using qPCR, and gingipain activity was also assessed. RESULTS Sr-functionalized wafers, compared to controls, were associated with statistically significant less viable cells in both mono- and multispecies tests. The number of colony forming units (CFUs) within the biofilm was significantly less in Sr-functionalized wafers, compared to control wafers, for Staphylococcus aureus at all time points of evaluation and for Escherichia coli at Day 1. Gingipain activity was less in Sr-functionalized wafers, compared to control wafers, and the qPCR showed that P. gingivalis remained below detection levels at Sr-functionalized wafers, while it consisted of 15% of the total biofilm on control wafers at Day 6. CONCLUSION Sr functionalization displayed promising antimicrobial potential, possessing bactericidal and bacteriostatic ability against bacteria associated with peri-implantitis grown either as mono-species or mixed in a multispecies consortium with several common oral microorganisms.

Abstract
Bone regeneration using synthetic materials has a high rate of surgical site infection, resulting in severe pain for patients and often requiring revision surgery. We propose Ag3PO4-based surface modification and structural control of scaffolds for preventing infections in bone regeneration. We demonstrated the differences in toxicity and antibacterial activity between in vitro and in vivo studies and determined the optimal silver content in terms of overall anti-infection effects, bone regeneration, toxicity, and pigmentation. A honeycomb structure comprising osteoconductive and resorbable carbonate apatite (CAp) was used as the base scaffold. CAp in the scaffold surface was partially replaced with different concentrations of Ag3PO4 via controlled dissolution-precipitation reactions in an AgNO3 solution. Both bone regeneration and infection prevention were achieved at 860-2300 ppm of silver. Despite the absence of Ag3PO4, honeycomb scaffolds were less susceptible to infection, even under conditions where infection occurs in clinically used three-dimensional porous scaffolds. Regardless of in vitro cytotoxicity at >5200 ppm of silver, increasing the silver content to 21,000 ppm did not adversely affect in vivo bone formation and scaffold resorption or cause acute systemic toxicity. Rather, bone formation was enhanced with 5200 ppm of silver. However, pigmentation was observed at that concentration. Hence, we concluded that the optimal silver concentration range is 860-2300 ppm for anti-infective and pigmentation-free bone regeneration. Bone regeneration was achieved via surface modification, resulting in the rapid release of silver ions immediately after implantation, followed by gradual release over several months. The scaffold structure may also aid in preventing bacterial growth within the scaffolds.

Abstract
A wide variety of microorganisms have been closely linked to metal corrosion in the form of adherent surface biofilms. Biofilms allow the development and maintenance of locally corrosive environments and/or permit direct corrosion including pitting corrosion. The presence of numerous genetically distinct microorganisms in the oral environment poses a threat to the integrity and durability of the surface of metallic prostheses and implants used in routine dentistry. However, the association between oral microorganisms and specific corrosion mechanisms is not clear. It is of practical importance to understand how microbial corrosion occurs and the associated risks to metallic materials in the oral environment. This knowledge is also important for researchers and clinicians who are increasingly concerned about the biological activity of the released corrosion products. Accordingly, the main goal was to comprehensively review the current literature regarding oral microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) including characteristics of biofilms and of the oral environment, MIC mechanisms, corrosion behavior in the presence of oral microorganisms and potentially mitigating technologies. Findings included that oral MIC has been ascribed mostly to aggressive metabolites secreted during microbial metabolism (metabolite-mediated MIC). However, from a thermodynamic point of view, extracellular electron transfer mechanisms (EET-MIC) through pili or electron transfer compounds cannot be ruled out. Various MIC mitigating methods have been demonstrated to be effective in short term, but long term evaluations are necessary before clinical applications can be considered. Currently most in-vitro studies fail to simulate the complexity of intraoral physiological conditions which may either reduce or exacerbate corrosion risk, which must be addressed in future studies. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A thorough analysis on literature regarding oral MIC (microbiologically influenced corrosion) of biomedical metallic materials has been carried out, including characteristics of oral environment, MIC mechanisms, corrosion behaviors in the presence of typical oral microorganisms and potential mitigating methods (materials design and surface design). There is currently a lack of mechanistic understanding of oral MIC which is very important not only to corrosion researchers but also to dentists and clinicians. This paper discusses the significance of biofilms from a biocorrosion perspective and summarizes several aspects of MIC mechanisms which could be caused by oral microorganisms. Oral MIC has been closely associated with not only the materials research but also the dental/clinical research fields in this work.

Abstract
Titanium (Ti) implants are widely used in orthopedic and dental applications due to their excellent biocompatibility and mechanical properties. However, bacterial adhesion and subsequent biofilm formation on implant surfaces pose a significant risk of postoperative infections and complications. Conventional surface modifications often lack long-lasting antibacterial efficacy, necessitating the development of novel coatings with enhanced antimicrobial properties. This study aims to develop a novel Ag-TiO2-OTS (Silver-Titanium dioxide-Octadecyltrichlorosilane, ATO) nanocomposite coating, through a chemical plating method. By employing a 'resist-killing-disintegrate' approach, the coating is designed to inhibit bacterial adhesion effectively, and facilitate pollutant removal with lasting effects. Characterization of the coatings was performed using spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and contact angle analysis. Antibacterial efficacy, quantitatively evaluated against E. coli and S. aureus over 168 h, showed a significant reduction in bacterial adhesion by 76.6% and 66.5% respectively, and bacterial removal rates were up to 83.8% and 73.3% in comparison to uncoated Ti-base material. Additionally, antibacterial assays indicated that the ratio of the Lifshitz-van der Waals apolar component to electron donor surface energy components significantly influences bacterial adhesion and removal, underscoring a tunable parameter for optimizing antibacterial surfaces. Biocompatibility assessments with the L929 cell line revealed that the ATO coatings exhibited excellent biocompatibility, with minimal cytotoxicity and no significant impact on cell proliferation or apoptosis. The ATO coatings provided a multi-functionality surface that not only resists bacterial colonization but also possesses self-cleaning capabilities, thereby marking a substantial advancement in the development of antibacterial coatings for medical implants.

Abstract
Orthopedic and dental implants made from Ti6Al4V are widely used due to their excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, the long-term performance of these implants can be compromised by bacterial infections. This study explores the development of hierarchically textured surfaces with enhanced bactericidal properties to address such challenges. Hierarchical surface structures were developed by combining microscale features produced by a microsecond laser and superimposed submicron features produced using a femtosecond laser. Microscale patterns were produced by the pulsed laser surface melting process, whereas submicrometer laser-induced periodic surface structures were created on top of them by femtosecond laser processing. Escherichia coli bacterial cells were cultured on the textured surface. After 24 h, a staining analysis was performed using SYTO9 and PI dyes to investigate the samples with a confocal microscope for live dead assays. Results showed bacterial colony formation onto the microscale surface textures with live bacterial cells, whereas the hierarchical surface textures display segregated and physically damaged bacterial cell attachments on surfaces. The hierarchical surface textures showed ∼98% dead bacterial cells due to the combined effect of its multiscale surface features and oxide formation during the laser processing steps. The efficacy of hierarchical surface textures in enhancing the antibacterial behavior of Ti6Al4V implants is evident from the conducted research. Such laser-based surface treatments can find potential applications in different industrial sectors.

Prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus Infections in the Implantation of Orthopedic Devices in a Third-Level Hospital: An Observational Cohort Study. Pathogens 2024; 13:620. [PMID: 39204221 PMCID: PMC11357249 DOI: 10.3390/pathogens13080620] [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: 06/17/2024] [Revised: 07/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/24/2024] [Indexed: 09/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Using orthopedic devices or prosthetic joints to treat various conditions is expected in a Traumatology and Orthopedics Unit. Recently, the materials used to build these different devices have evolved; however, pathogens can still infect these materials. Additionally, the immune system has limitations when defending against these pathogens, which results in bacterial infections like Staphylococcus aureus, Methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). A total of 276 patients who attended the Traumatology and Orthopedics Unit of our hospital from 1 June 2018 to 1 June 2019, were included in the present study. Our study analyzed the incidence of S. aureus and other bacterial pathogens in the surgical sites of patients with orthopedic implants, as well as the most used types of implants and implant materials. The specimens obtained from the surgical sites of the patients were cultured in anaerobic and aerobic media for subsequent identification using their phenotypic characteristics. Subsequently, antibiotic susceptibility tests were performed to establish the appropriate treatment. The primary pathogens identified were Staphylococcus aureus (26.4%), followed by Escherichia coli (21.0%) and Staphylococcus epidermidis (15.8%). The most commonly used implants were plates (41.7%), followed by endomedullary nails (20%), Kirschner wires (14.1%), and fixators (10.1%). As for the anatomical regions of the implants, the most frequent sites were the legs, followed by the thighs, wrists, and ankles. The pathogens were more susceptible to ciprofloxacin (95%), clindamycin (89%), and cefotaxime (86%). S. aureus is the primary infectious agent in our hospital, with an incidence of 26.4% after the placement of orthopedic implants. Although its incidence was lower compared to other tertiary hospitals, it is necessary to improve aseptic techniques in such a way as to reduce the incidence of this pathogen further.

Abstract
Titanium implants are subject to bacterial adhesion and peri-implantitis induction, and biosurfactants bring a new alternative to the fight against infections. This work aimed to produce and characterize the biosurfactant from Bacillus subtilis ATCC 19,659, its anti-adhesion and antimicrobial activity, and cell viability. Anti-adhesion studies were carried out against Streptococcus sanguinis, Staphylococcus aureus, Fusobacterium nucleatum, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Proteus mirabilis as the minimum inhibitory concentration and the minimum bactericidal concentration. Cell viability was measured against osteoblast and fibroblast cells. The biosurfactant was classified as lipopeptide, with critical micelle concentration at 40 µg mL- 1, and made the titanium surface less hydrophobic. The anti-adhesion effect was observed for Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus sanguinis with 54% growth inhibition and presented a minimum inhibitory concentration of 15.7 µg mL- 1 for Streptococcus sanguinis and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans. The lipopeptide had no cytotoxic effect and demonstrated high potential application against bacterial biofilms.

Abstract
Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) exhibits remarkable qualities; owing to the strong affinity for water of its pyrrolidone group, which enhances compatibility with aqueous systems, it is effective for stabilizing, binding, or carrying food, drugs, and cosmetics. However, coating the surface of polymeric films with PVP is not practical, as the coatings dissolve easily in water and ethanol. Poly(silane-pyrrolidone) nano/microparticles were prepared by combining addition polymerization of methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane and N-vinylpyrrolidone, followed by step-growth Stöber polymerization of the formed silane-pyrrolidone monomer. The silane-pyrrolidone monomeric solution was spread on oxidized polyethylene films with a Mayer rod and polymerized to form siloxane (Si-O-Si) self-cross-linked durable anti-fog thin coatings with pyrrolidone groups exposed on the outer surface. The coatings exhibited similar wetting properties to PVP with significantly greater stability. The particles and coatings were characterized by microscopy, contact angle measurements, and spectroscopy, and tested using hot fog. Excellent anti-fogging activity was found.

Abstract
Currently, titanium and its alloys have emerged as the predominant metallic biomaterials for orthopedic implants. Nonetheless, the relatively high post-operative infection rate (2-5%) exacerbates patient discomfort and imposes significant economic costs on society. Hence, urgent measures are needed to enhance the antibacterial properties of titanium and titanium alloy implants. The titanium dioxide nanotube array (TNTA) is gaining increasing attention due to its topographical and photocatalytic antibacterial properties. Moreover, the pores within TNTA serve as excellent carriers for chemical ion doping and drug loading. The fabrication of TNTA on the surface of titanium and its alloys can be achieved through various methods. Studies have demonstrated that the electrochemical anodization method offers numerous significant advantages, such as simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and controllability. This review presents the development process of the electrochemical anodization method and its applications in synthesizing TNTA. Additionally, this article systematically discusses topographical, chemical, drug delivery, and combined antibacterial strategies. It is widely acknowledged that implants should possess a range of favorable biological characteristics. Clearly, addressing multiple needs with a single antibacterial strategy is challenging. Hence, this review proposes systematic research into combined antibacterial strategies to further mitigate post-operative infection risks and enhance implant success rates in the future.

Abstract
Titanium-based orthopedic implants are gaining popularity in recent years due to their excellent biocompatibility, superior corrosion resistance and lightweight properties. However, these implants often fail to perform effectively due to poor osseointegration. Nanosurface modification approaches may help to resolve this problem. In this work, TiO2 nanotube (NT) arrays were fabricated on commercially available pure titanium (Ti) surfaces by anodization and annealing. Then, zinc (Zn) and strontium (Sr), important for cell signaling, were doped on the NT surface by hydrothermal treatment. This very simple method of Zn and Sr doping takes less time and energy compared to other complicated techniques. Different surface characterization tools such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), static water contact angle, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and nanoindentation techniques were used to evaluate the modified surfaces. Then, adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) were cultured with the surfaces to evaluate cell adhesion, proliferation, and growth on the surfaces. After that, the cells were differentiated towards osteogenic lineage to evaluate alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, osteocalcin expression, and calcium phosphate mineralization. Results indicate that NT surfaces doped with Zn and Sr had significantly enhanced ADSC adhesion, proliferation, growth, and osteogenic differentiation compared to an unmodified surface, thus confirming the enhanced performance of these surfaces.

Abstract
Achieving sufficient bone regeneration in large segmental defects is challenging, with the structure of bone repair scaffolds and their loaded bioactive substances crucial for modulating the local osteogenic microenvironment. This study utilized digital laser processing (DLP)-based 3D printing technology to successfully fabricate high-precision methacryloylated polycaprolactone (PCLMA) bionic bone scaffold structures. Adipose-derived stem cell-engineered nanovesicles (ADSC-ENs) were uniformly and stably modified onto the bionic scaffold surface using a perfusion device, constructing a conducive microenvironment for tissue regeneration and long bone defect repair through the scaffold's structural design and the vesicles' biological functions. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) examination of the scaffold surface confirmed the efficient loading of ADSC-ENs. The material group loaded with vesicles (PCLMA-BAS-ENs) demonstrated good cell compatibility and osteogenic potential when analyzed for the adhesion and osteogenesis of primary rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on the material surface. Tested in a 15 mm critical rabbit radial defect model, the PCLMA-BAS-ENs scaffold facilitated near-complete bone defect repair after 12 weeks. Immunofluorescence and proteomic results indicated that the PCLMA-BAS-ENs scaffold significantly improved the osteogenic microenvironment at the defect site in vivo, promoted angiogenesis, and enhanced the polarization of macrophages towards M2 phenotype, and facilitated the recruitment of BMSCs. Thus, the PCLMA-BAS-ENs scaffold was proven to significantly promote the repair of large segmental bone defects. Overall, this strategy of combining engineered vesicles with highly biomimetic scaffolds to promote large-segment bone tissue regeneration holds great potential in orthopedic and other regenerative medicine applications.

Guo CY, Mo R, Kim H. Surface topography modulates initial platelet adhesion to titanium substrata. J Oral Biol Craniofac Res 2024; 14:471-477. [PMID: 38962718 PMCID: PMC11220530 DOI: 10.1016/j.jobcr.2024.02.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024] Open
Abstract
The clinical success of implanted biomaterials such as dental implants is largely determined by the molecular signaling that occurs at the tissue-implant interface. The modification of surface topography is a widely-employed strategy for optimizing tissue integration with dental implants. However, little is known regarding the direct, cellular-level effects of substratum topography on platelet signaling and adhesion, despite these cells being the first to encounter the implant surface during surgical placement. Here we compared platelet adhesion and secretion on four (4) different titanium surfaces, notably, the modifications applied to commercially available dental implants: smooth (S) titanium; acid-etched (AE), sandblasted (SB) and a combined acid-etching/sandblasting procedure (SLA). Platelets were isolated from human blood, washed, and seeded on to the 4 test surfaces; platelet adhesion was quantified by microscopy. In addition, the secretion of critical molecules stored in platelet granules (platelet factor 4, PF4; soluble P-selectin, sCD62P; transforming growth factor-beta1, TGF-β1; platelet-derived growth factor-AB, PDGF-AB) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) analysis of the supernatants. There was greater platelet adhesion to the rougher AE and SB surfaces, however, the concentration of the secreted growth factors was comparable on all surfaces. We conclude that while surface topography can be engineered to modulate initial platelet adhesion, granule secretion is likely regulated as a separate and independent process.

Abstract
The work is focused on the degradation, cytotoxicity, and antibacterial properties, of iron-based biomaterials with a bioactive coating layer. The foam and the compact iron samples were coated with a polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymer layer without and with gentamicin sulfate (PEG + Ge). The corrosion properties of coated and uncoated samples were studied using the degradation testing in Hanks' solution at 37 °C. The electrochemical and static immersion corrosion tests revealed that the PEG-coated samples corroded faster than samples with the bioactive PEG + Ge coating and uncoated samples. The foam samples corroded faster compared with the compact samples. To determine the cytotoxicity, cell viability was monitored in the presence of porous foam and compact iron samples. The antibacterial activity of the samples with PEG and PEG + Ge against Escherichia coli CCM 3954 and Staphylococcus aureus CCM 4223 strains was also tested. Tested PEG + Ge samples showed significant antibacterial activity against both bacterial strains. Therefore, the biodegradable iron-based materials with a bioactive coating could be a suitable successor to the metal materials studied thus far as well as the materials used in the field of medicine.

Abstract
Orthopedic and dental implant failure continues to be a significant concern due to localized bacterial infections. Previous studies have attempted to improve implant surfaces by modifying their texture and roughness or coating them with antibiotics to enhance antibacterial properties for implant longevity. However, these approaches have demonstrated limited effectiveness. In this study, we attempted to engineer the titanium (Ti) alloy surface biomimetically at the nanometer scale, inspired by the cicada wing nanostructure using alkaline hydrothermal treatment (AHT) to simultaneously confer antibacterial properties and support the adhesion and proliferation of mammalian cells. The two modified Ti surfaces were developed using a 4 h and 8 h AHT process in 1 N NaOH at 230 °C, followed by a 2-hour post-calcination at 600 °C. We found that the control plates showed a relatively smooth surface, while the treatment groups (4 h & 8 h AHT) displayed nanoflower structures containing randomly distributed nano-spikes. The results demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in the contact angle of the treatment groups, which increased wettability characteristics. The 8 h AHT group exhibited the highest wettability and significant increase in roughness 0.72 ± 0.08 µm (P < 0.05), leading to more osteoblast cell attachment, reduced cytotoxicity effects, and enhanced relative survivability. The alkaline phosphatase activity measured in all different groups indicated that the 8 h AHT group exhibited the highest activity, suggesting that the surface roughness and wettability of the treatment groups may have facilitated cell adhesion and attachment and subsequently increased secretion of extracellular matrix. Overall, the findings indicate that biomimetic nanotextured surfaces created by the AHT process have the potential to be translated as implant coatings to enhance bone regeneration and implant integration.

Abstract
In order to reduce infections, porous NiTi alloys with 62% porosity were obtained by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis with the addition of 0.2 and 0.5 at. % silver nanoparticles. Silver significantly improved the alloys' antibacterial activity without compromising cytocompatibility. An alloy with 0.5 at. % Ag showed the best antibacterial ability against Staphylococcus epidermidis. All alloys exhibited good biocompatibility with no cellular toxicity against embryonic fibroblast 3T3 cells. Clinical evaluation of the results after implantation showed a complete absence of purulent-inflammatory complications in all animals. Even distribution of silver nanoparticles in the surface layer of the porous NiTi alloy provides a uniform antibacterial effect.

Gallium-doped zirconia coatings modulate microbiological outcomes in dental implant surfaces. J Biomed Mater Res A 2024.

Abstract
Despite the significant recent advances in manufacturing materials supporting advanced dental therapies, peri-implantitis still represents a severe complication in dental implantology. Herein, a sol-gel process is proposed to easily deposit antibacterial zirconia coatings onto bulk zirconia, material, which is becoming very popular for the manufacturing of abutments. The coatings' physicochemical properties were analyzed through x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy investigations, while their stability and wettability were assessed by microscratch testing and static contact angle measurements. Uniform gallium-doped tetragonal zirconia coatings were obtained, featuring optimal mechanical stability and a hydrophilic behavior. The biological investigations pointed out that gallium-doped zirconia coatings: (i) displayed full cytocompatibility toward human gingival fibroblasts; (ii) exhibited significant antimicrobial activity against the Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans pathogen; (iii) were able to preserve the commensal Streptococcus salivarius. Furthermore, the proteomic analyses revealed that the presence of Ga did not impair the normal oral microbiota. Still, interestingly, it decreased by 17% the presence of Fusobacterium nucleatum, a gram-negative, strictly anaerobic bacteria that is naturally present in the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, this work can provide a valuable starting point for the development of coatings aimed at easily improving zirconia dental implants' performance.

Abstract
Titanium implants have revolutionized restorative and reconstructive therapy, yet achieving optimal osseointegration and ensuring long-term implant success remain persistent challenges. In this review, we explore a cutting-edge approach to enhancing implant properties: ultraviolet (UV) photofunctionalization. By harnessing UV energy, photofunctionalization rejuvenates aging implants, leveraging and often surpassing the intrinsic potential of titanium materials. The primary aim of this narrative review is to offer an updated perspective on the advancements made in the field, providing a comprehensive overview of recent findings and exploring the relationship between UV-induced physicochemical alterations and cellular responses. There is now compelling evidence of significant transformations in titanium surface chemistry induced by photofunctionalization, transitioning from hydrocarbon-rich to carbon pellicle-free surfaces, generating superhydrophilic surfaces, and modulating the electrostatic properties. These changes are closely associated with improved cellular attachment, spreading, proliferation, differentiation, and, ultimately, osseointegration. Additionally, we discuss clinical studies demonstrating the efficacy of UV photofunctionalization in accelerating and enhancing the osseointegration of dental implants. Furthermore, we delve into recent advancements, including the development of one-minute vacuum UV (VUV) photofunctionalization, which addresses the limitations of conventional UV methods as well as the newly discovered functions of photofunctionalization in modulating soft tissue and bacterial interfaces. By elucidating the intricate relationship between surface science and biology, this body of research lays the groundwork for innovative strategies aimed at enhancing the clinical performance of titanium implants, marking a new era in implantology.

Abstract
The regeneration of maxillofacial bone defects associated with diabetes mellitus remains challenging due to the occlusal loading and hyperglycemia microenvironment. Herein, we propose a material-structure-driven strategy through the additive manufacturing of degradable Zn-Mg-Cu gradient scaffolds. The in situ alloying of Mg and Cu endows Zn alloy with admirable compressive strength for mechanical support and uniform degradation mode for preventing localized rupture. The scaffolds manifest favorable antibacterial, angiogenic, and osteogenic modulation capacity in mimicked hyperglycemic microenvironment, and Mg and Cu promote osteogenic differentiation in the early and late stages, respectively. In addition, the scaffolds expedite diabetic maxillofacial bone ingrowth and regeneration by combining the metabolic regulation effect of divalent metal cations and the hyperboloid and suitable permeability of the gradient structure. RNA sequencing further reveals that RAC1 might be involved in bone formation by regulating the transport and uptake of glucose related to GLUT1 in osteoblasts, contributing to cell function recovery. Inspired by bone healing and structural cues, this study offers an essential understanding of the designation and underlying mechanisms of the material-structure-driven strategy for diabetic maxillofacial bone regeneration.

Abstract
Orthopedic prostheses are the ultimate therapeutic solution for various end-stage orthopedic conditions. However, aseptic loosening and pyogenic infections remain as primary complications associated with these devices. In this study, a hierarchical titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotube drug delivery system loaded with cinnamaldehyde for the surface modification of titanium implants, is constructed. These specially designed dual-layer TiO2 nanotubes enhance material reactivity and provide an extensive drug-loading platform within a short time. The introduction of cinnamaldehyde enhances the bone integration performance of the scaffold (simultaneously promoting bone formation and inhibiting bone resorption), anti-inflammatory capacity, and antibacterial properties. In vitro experiments have demonstrated that this system promoted osteogenesis by upregulating both Wnt/β-catenin and MAPK signaling pathways. Furthermore, it inhibits osteoclast formation, suppresses macrophage-mediated inflammatory responses, and impedes the proliferation of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. In vivo experiments shows that this material enhances bone integration in a rat model of femoral defects. In addition, it effectively enhances the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties in a subcutaneous implant in a rat model. This study provides a straightforward and highly effective surface modification strategy for orthopedic Ti implants.

[PMID: 38823678 DOI: 10.1016/j.jiac.2024.05.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/29/2024] [Indexed: 06/03/2024]
Abstract
INTRUDUCTON The most accurate method for detecting the pathogen of orthopedic implant-associated infections (OIAIs) is sonication fluid (SF). However, the frequency and duration of ultrasound significantly influence the number and activity of microorganisms. Currently, there is no consensus on the selection of these two parameters. Through this study, the choice of these two parameters is clarified. METHODS We established five ultrasonic groups (40kHz/10min, 40kHz/5min, 40 kHz/1min, 20kHz/5min, and 10kHz/5min) based on previous literature. OIAIs models were then developed and applied to ultrasound group treatment. Subsequently, we evaluated the efficiency of bacteria removal by conducting SEM and crystal violet staining. The number of live bacteria in the SF was determined using plate colony count and live/dead bacteria staining. RESULTS The results of crystal violet staining revealed that both the 40kHz/5min group and the 40kHz/10min group exhibited a significantly higher bacterial clearance rate compared to the other groups. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups. Additionally, the results of plate colony count and fluorescence staining of live and dead bacteria indicated that the number of live bacteria in the 40kHz/5min SF group was significantly higher than in the other groups. CONCLUSION 40kHz/5min ultrasound is the most beneficial for the detection of pathogenic bacteria on the surface of orthopedic implants.

Abstract
Hydrogels are well-suited for biomedical applications due to their numerous advantages, such as excellent bioactivity, versatile physical and chemical properties, and effective drug delivery capabilities. Recently, hydrogel coatings have developed to functionalize bone implants which are biologically inert and cannot withstand the complex bone tissue repair microenvironment. These coatings have shown promise in addressing unique and pressing medical needs. This review begins with the major functionalized performance and interfacial bonding strategy of hydrogel coatings, with a focus on the novel external field response properties of the hydrogel. Recent advances in the fabrication strategies of hydrogel coatings and their use in the treatment of pathologic bone regeneration are highlighted. Finally, challenges and emerging trends in the evolution and application of physiological environment-responsive and external electric field-responsive hydrogel coatings for bone implants are discussed.

Abstract
Tooth loss during the lifetime of an individual is common. A strategy to treat partial or complete edentulous patients is the placement of dental implants. However, dental implants are subject to bacterial colonization and biofilm formation, which cause an infection named peri-implantitis. The existing long-term treatments for peri-implantitis are generally inefficient. Thus, an electrical circuit was produced with zirconia (Zr) samples using a hot-pressing technique to impregnate silver (Ag) through channels and holes to create a path by LASER texturing. The obtained specimens were characterized according to vitro cytotoxicity, to ensure ZrAg non-toxicity. Furthermore, samples were inoculated with Staphylococcus aureus using 6.5 mA of alternating current (AC). The current was delivered using a potentiostat and the influence on the bacterial concentration was assessed. Using AC, the specimens displayed no bacterial adhesion (Log 7 reduction). The in vitro results presented in this study suggest that this kind of treatment can be an alternative and promising strategy to treat and overcome bacterial adhesion around dental implants that can evolve to biofilm.

Abstract
Various implant surface treatment methods have been developed to achieve good osseointegration in implant treatment. However, some cases remain impossible to treat with implants because osseointegration is not obtained after implantation, and the implants fail. Thus, this study focused on phosphorylated pullulan because of its adhesiveness to titanium (Ti) and bone, high biocompatibility, and early replacement with bone. In this study, the response of bone-related cells to phosphorylated pullulan was evaluated to develop a new surface treatment method. Saos-2 (human osteosarcoma-derived osteoblast-like cells), MC3T3-E1 (mouse calvaria-derived osteoblast-like cells), and RAW264.7 (mouse macrophage-like cells) were used. In evaluating cellular responses, phosphorylated pullulan was added to the culture medium, and cell proliferation and calcification induction tests were performed. The proliferation and calcification of cells on the surface of Ti disks coated with phosphorylated pullulan were also evaluated. In addition, bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), an osteogenic factor, was used to evaluate the role of phosphorylated pullulan as a drug carrier in inducing calcification on Ti disks. Phosphorylated pullulan tended to promote the proliferation of osteoblast-like cells and the formation of calcification on Ti disks coated with phosphorylated pullulan. Ti disks coated with phosphorylated pullulan loaded with BMP-2 enhanced calcification. Phosphorylated pullulan inhibited osteoclast-like cell formation. These results are due to the properties of phosphorylated pullulan, such as adhesiveness to titanium and drug-loading function. Therefore, phosphorylated pullulan effectively promotes bone regeneration when coated on titanium implants and is useful for developing a new surface treatment method.

Abstract
Chromium- and cobalt-based alloys, as well as chrome-nickel steels, are most used in dental prosthetics. Unfortunately, these alloys, especially nickel-based alloys, can cause allergic reactions. A disadvantage of these alloys is also insufficient corrosion resistance. To improve the properties of these alloys, amorphous Si (C,N) coatings were deposited on the surfaces of metal specimens. This paper characterizes coatings of silicon carbide nitrides, deposited by the magnetron sputtering method on the surface of nickel-chromium alloys used in dental prosthetics. Depending on the deposition parameters, coatings with varying carbon to nitrogen ratios were obtained. The study analyzed their structure and chemical and phase composition. In addition, a study of surface wettability and surface roughness was performed. Based on the results obtained, it was found that amorphous coatings of Si (C,N) type with thicknesses of 2 to 4.5 µm were obtained. All obtained coatings increase the value of surface free energy. The study showed that Si (C,N)-type films can be used in dental prosthetics as protective coatings.

Abstract
Background Applying multifunctional coatings employing strontium (Sr) ions on titanium (Ti) surfaces is a useful and biocompatible method to improve osseointegration and prevent tissue infections through antimicrobial activity. Nonetheless, the effectiveness of Sr coating on the adhesion and viability of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) to Ti surfaces remains unclear. Purpose The study aimed to evaluate the effect of Sr coating on the adhesion and viability of HGFs to Ti surfaces. Materials and Methods The Ti wafers were divided into two groups based on Sr coating: uncoated Ti (control) and Sr-coated Ti. The Magnetron sputtering technique was used for Sr coating on Ti surfaces. The HGFs were seeded onto the surfaces and cultured for 48 and 96 hours before the cell adhesion and viability of the attached HGFs were assessed. The adhesion of HGFs was analyzed using the attached cell numbers at 48 h and 96 h, and the morphology at 24 h and 72 h. The cytotoxic effect on HGFs was assessed after 24 and 72 hours of incubation using cell viability assay. Student's t-test was used for statistical analysis. Results The number of cells attached to Sr-coated surfaces was significantly greater than those attached to uncoated Ti surfaces after 48 hours (P<0.0001) and 96 hours (P=0.0002). Sr-coated and uncoated Ti surfaces were not cytotoxic to HGFs, with the cell viability ranging from 92% to 105% of the untreated control HGFs. There were no significant differences in cell viability between Sr-coated and uncoated Ti surfaces at 24 hours (P=0.3675) and 72 hours (P=0.0982). Conclusion Sr-coated Ti surfaces induce adhesion of HGFs compared to uncoated Ti surfaces. Further, Sr-coated and uncoated Ti surfaces show no cytotoxic effect on the attached HGFs.

Abstract
The surface topological features of bioimplants are among the key indicators for bone tissue replacement because they directly affect cell morphology, adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. In this study, we investigated the physical, electrochemical, and biological responses of sandblasted titanium (SB-Ti) surfaces with pore geometries fabricated using a plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) process. The PEO treatment was conducted at an applied voltage of 280 V in a solution bath consisting of 0.15 mol L-1 calcium acetate monohydrate and 0.02 mol L-1 calcium glycerophosphate for 3 min. The surface chemistry, wettability, mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of PEO-treated sandblasted Ti implants using hydroxyapatite particles (PEO-SB-Ti) were improved with the distribution of calcium phosphorous porous oxide layers, and showed a homogeneous and hierarchically porous surface with clusters of nanopores in a bath containing calcium acetate monohydrate and calcium glycerophosphate. To demonstrate the efficacy of PEO-SB-Ti, we investigated whether the implant affects biological responses. The proposed PEO-SB-Ti were evaluated with the aim of obtaining a multifunctional bone replacement model that could efficiently induce osteogenic differentiation as well as antibacterial activities. These physical and biological responses suggest that the PEO-SB-Ti may have a great potential for use an artificial bone replacement compared to that of the controls.

Abstract
Innovations in food packaging systems could meet the evolving needs of the market; emerging concepts of non-migrating technologies reduce the negative migration of preservatives from packaging materials, extend shelf life, and improve food quality and safety. Non-migratory packaging activates the surface of inert materials through pretreatment to generate different active groups. The preservative is covalently grafted with the resin of the pretreated packaging substrate through the graft polymerization of the monomer and the coupling reaction of the polymer chain. The covalent link not only provides the required surface properties of the material for a long time but also retains the inherent properties of the polymer. This technique is applied to the processing for durable, stable, and easily controllable packaging widely. This article reviews the principles of various techniques for packaging materials, surface graft modification, and performance characterization of materials after grafting modification. Potential applications in the food industry and future research trends are also discussed.

Gallium and silver-doped titanium surfaces provide enhanced osteogenesis, reduce bone resorption and prevent bacterial infection in co-culture. Acta Biomater 2024; 180:154-170. [PMID: 38621600 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.04.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 04/05/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/17/2024]
Abstract
Bacterial infection remains a significant problem associated with orthopaedic surgeries leading to surgical site infection (SSI). This unmet medical need can become an even greater complication when surgery is due to malignant bone tumor. In the present study, we evaluated in vitro titanium (Ti) implants subjected to gallium (Ga) and silver (Ag)-doped thermochemical treatment as strategy to prevent SSI and improve osteointegration in bone defects caused by diseases such as osteoporosis, bone tumor, or bone metastasis. Firstly, as Ga has been reported to be an osteoinductive and anti-resorptive agent, its performance in the mixture was proved by studying human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) and pre-osteoclasts (RAW264.7) behaviour. Then, the antibacterial potential provided by Ag was assessed by resembling "The Race for the Surface" between hMSC and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in two co-culture methods. Moreover, the presence of quorum sensing molecules in the co-culture was evaluated. The results highlighted the suitability of the mixture to induce osteodifferentiation and reduce osteoclastogenesis in vitro. Furthermore, the GaAg surface promoted strong survival rate and retained osteoinduction potential of hMSCs even after bacterial inoculation. Therefore, GaAg-modified titanium may be an ideal candidate to repair bone defects caused by excessive bone resorption, in addition to preventing SSI. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This article provides important insights into titanium for fractures caused by osteoporosis or bone metastases with high incidence in surgical site infection (SSI) because in this situation bacterial infection can become a major disaster. In order to solve this unmet medical need, we propose a titanium implant modified with gallium and silver to improve osteointegration, reduce bone resorption and avoid bacterial infection. For that aim, we study osteoblast and osteoclast behavior with the main novelty focused on the antibacterial evaluation. In this work, we recreate "the race for the surface" in long-term experiments and study bacterial virulence factors (quorum sensing). Therefore, we believe that our article could be of great interest, providing a great impact on future orthopedic applications.

Abstract
Dental implant failures caused by bacterial infections are a significant concern for dental implantologists. We modified the titanium surface by depositing silver (Ti-Ag) using direct current (DC) sputtering and confirmed the formation of a 'nano coat' by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), surface profilometry and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed the deposition of a uniform nano Ag thin film. A gradual increase in thickness was observed, and the film thickness (530 nm) at 5 min deposition time (Ti-Ag5) resulted in a reduction of the water contact angle (WCA, 15%) and an increase in surface energy (SFE, 22%) in comparison to the uncoated Ti surface. Using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), the slow, steady release of Ag from the coating was observed over 21 days. The Ti-Ag5 surface exhibited excellent antibacterial activity against Streptococcus oralis, Streptococcus sanguinis, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, and Porphyromonas gingivalis, which belonged to the yellow, purple, and red complexes, representing specific periodontal pathogens. Furthermore, we observed excellent cytocompatibility of Ag-deposited Ti towards MG-63 osteoblasts with no inhibitory effect on their proliferative potential. Quantitation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, mineralization efficiency, and osteogenesis-related gene expression of MG-63 cells over 21 days was suggestive of rapid osseointegration. Overall, the 'nano coat' of Ag on Ti is indeed a prophylactic against peri-implantitis, ensuring increased implant success.

Abstract
Gastroenteritis caused by Campylobacter represents the most common reported foodborne bacterial illness worldwide, followed by salmonellosis. Both diseases are often caused by the consumption of contaminated, insufficiently heated poultry meat. This can result from contamination of the meat during the slaughtering processes. Food contact surfaces like stainless steel or plucking fingers contribute significantly to cross-contamination of poultry carcasses. Modification of these surfaces could lead to a reduction of the bacterial burden, as already proven by successful application in various food industry sectors, such as packaging.In this study, nanoscale silica-coated and uncoated stainless-steel surfaces and plucking fingers were compared on a pilot scale regarding attachment and detachment of Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella Enteritidis and Escherichia coli.The bacteria did not adhere less to the coated plucking fingers or stainless-steel sections than to the uncoated ones. The coating also did not lead to a significant difference in detachment of Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella Enteritidis and Escherichia coli from the investigated surfaces compared to the uncoated ones.Our study did not reveal any differences between the coated and uncoated surfaces with regard to the investigated bacteria. In order to achieve a better adaptation of the coating to slaughterhouse conditions, future studies should focus on its further development based on the investigation of specific coating parameters.

Abstract
Antibacterial properties and osteogenic activity are considered as two crucial factors for the initial healing and long-term survivability of orthopedic implants. For decades, various drug-loaded implants to enhance biological activities have been investigated extensively. More importantly, to control the drug release timing is equally significant due to the sequential biological processes after implantation. Hence, developing a staged regulation system on the titanium surface is practically significant. Here, we prepared TiO2 nanotubes (TiO2 NTs) on the titanium surface by anodization, followed by the incorporation of zinc (Zn) and strontium (Sr) sequentially through a hydrothermal process. Surface characterization confirmed the successful fabrication of Zn and Sr-incorporated TiO2 NTs (Zn-Sr/TiO2) on the titanium surface. The ion release results exhibited the differential release characteristic of Zn and Sr, which meant the early-stage release of Zn and the long-term release of Sr. It was exactly in accord with the biological process after implantation, laying the basis of staged regulation after implantation. Zn-Sr/TiO2 showed favorable anti-early infection properties both in vitro and in vivo. Its inhibition effect on bacterial biofilm formation was attributed to the resistance against bacteria's initial adhesion and the killing effect on planktonic bacteria. Additionally, the release of Sr could alleviate infection-induced damage via immunoregulation. The biocompatibility and osteogenic activity mediated by M2 macrophage activation were confirmed with in vitro and in vivo studies. Therefore, it exhibited great potential in staged regulation for antibacterial activity in the early stage and the M2 activation-mediated osteogenic activity in the late stage. The staged regulation process was based on the differential release of Zn and Sr to achieve the early antibacterial effect and the long-term immune-induced osteogenic activity, to prevent implant-related infection and achieve better osseointegration. These two kinds of ions played their roles synergistically and complement mutually. This work is expected to provide an innovative idea for realizing sequential regulation after implantation.

Abstract
Background: Studies have shown positive effects of erbium lasers in removal of biofilms. A review article was required with quantitative data for confirmation of their effects, but there is still no a comprehensive study reviewing their effects based on the root canal and implant surface. This systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of erbium lasers in removal of the root canal system and surface biofilms. Methods: Studies were searched with keywords in databases of PubMed, Scopus, Europe PMC, Cochrane Central, Embase, and Web of Science and screened by referees. Data were included based on mean ± standard deviation and size of control and laser groups. Effect sizes were assessed as standardized mean differences and calculated for each study and for the root and dental surface. Laser characteristics and bacteria were considered as moderators. Results: Nineteen articles in the current study comprised 565 samples (283 control samples and 282 laser samples). The analyses showed the significant effects of erbium lasers on bacterial biofilms on the implant surface [-0.496, 95% confidence interval, CI (-0.720 to -0.273); I2 = 26.94; p = 0.029; Q = 13.28] and root canal [-0.551, 95% CI (-0.656 to -0.445); I2 = 23.89; p = 0.031; Q = 10.46]. Results showed that highest efficiency lasers were obtained at higher wavelengths of 2940 nm, 75-100 mJ energy, and 100-150 μsec and <50-Hz pulses. Conclusions: Erbium lasers can be used to remove biofilms on dental implant surfaces and root canal systems and are safe options for untouchable sites in the root canal.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of this study were to design a novel titanium surface coated with a PVA hydrogel matrix and chitosan-based nanoparticles and to investigate the antibiotic release and its ability to inhibit microbial activity. METHODS Two drug delivery systems were developed and mixed. Chitosan-based nanoparticles (NP) and a polyvinyl alcohol film (PVA). The size, ζ-potential, stability, adhesive properties, and encapsulation profile of NP, as well as the release kinetics of drug delivery systems and their antimicrobial ability of PVA and PVANP films, were studied on Ti surfaces. The systems were loaded with doxycycline, vancomycin, and doxepin hydrochloride. RESULTS Nanoparticles presented a ζ-potential greater than 30 mV for 45 days and the efficiency drug encapsulation was 26.88% ± 1.51% for doxycycline, 16.09% ± 10.24% for vancomycin and 17.57% ± 11.08% for doxepin. In addition, PVA films were loaded with 125 μg/mL of doxycycline, 125 μg/mL of vancomycin, and 100 μg/mL of doxepin. PVANP-doxycycline achieved the antibacterial effect at 4 h while PVA-doxycycline maintained its effect at 24 h.

A balance of biocompatibility and antibacterial capability of 3D printed PEEK implants with natural totarol coating. Dent Mater 2024; 40:674-688. [PMID: 38388252 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2024.02.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Polyetheretherketone (PEEK), a biomaterial with appropriate bone-like mechanical properties and excellent biocompatibility, is widely applied in cranio-maxillofacial and dental applications. However, the lack of antibacterial effect is an essential drawback of PEEK material and might lead to infection and osseointegration issues. This study aims to apply a natural antibacterial agent, totarol coating onto the 3D printed PEEK surface and find an optimized concentration with balanced cytocompatibility, osteogenesis, and antibacterial capability. METHODS In this study, a natural antibacterial agent, totarol, was applied as a coating to fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printed PEEK surfaces at a series of increasing concentrations (1 mg/ml, 5 mg/ml, 10 mg/ml, 15 mg/ml, and 20 mg/ml). The samples were then evaluated for cytocompatibility with L929 fibroblast and SAOS-2 osteoblast using live/dead staining and CCK-8 assay. The antibacterial capability was assessed by crystal violet staining, live/dead staining, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) utilizing the oral primary colonizer S. gordonii and isolates of mixed oral bacteria in a stirring system simulating the oral environment. The appropriate safe working concentration for totarol coating is selected based on the results of the cytocompatibility and antibacterial test. Subsequently, the influence on osteogenic differentiation was evaluated by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alizarin red staining (ARS) analysis of pre-osteoblasts. RESULTS Our results showed that the optimal concentration of totarol solution for promising antibacterial coating was approximately 10 mg/ml. Such surfaces could play an excellent antibacterial role by inducing a contact-killing effect with an inhibitory effect against biofilm development without affecting the healing of soft and hard tissues around FFF 3D printed PEEK implants or abutments. SIGNIFICANCE This study indicates that the totarol coated PEEK has an improved antibacterial effect with excellent biocompatibility providing great clinical potential as an orthopedic/dental implant/abutment material.

Abstract
Bacterial infection and insufficient osteogenic activity are the main causes of orthopedic implant failure. Conventional surface modification methods are difficult to meet the requirements for long-term implant placement. In order to better regulate the function of implant surfaces, especially to improve both the antibacterial and osteogenic activity, external stimuli-responsive (ESR) strategies have been employed for the surface modification of orthopedic implants. External stimuli act as "smart switches" to regulate the surface interactions with bacteria and cells. The balance between antibacterial and osteogenic capabilities of implant surfaces can be achieved through these specific ESR manifestations, including temperature changes, reactive oxygen species production, controlled release of bioactive molecules, controlled release of functional ions, etc. This Review summarizes the recent progress on different ESR strategies (based on light, ultrasound, electric, and magnetic fields) that can effectively balance antibacterial performance and osteogenic capability of orthopedic implants. Furthermore, the current limitations and challenges of ESR strategies for surface modification of orthopedic implants as well as future development direction are also discussed.
