Abstract
The goal of this review is to present a wide range of hybrid formulations and composites containing calcium orthophosphates (abbreviated as CaPO4) that are suitable for use in biomedical applications and currently on the market. The bioactive, biocompatible, and osteoconductive properties of various CaPO4-based formulations make them valuable in the rapidly developing field of biomedical research, both in vitro and in vivo. Due to the brittleness of CaPO4, it is essential to combine the desired osteologic properties of ceramic CaPO4 with those of other compounds to create novel, multifunctional bone graft biomaterials. Consequently, this analysis offers a thorough overview of the hybrid formulations and CaPO4-based composites that are currently known. To do this, a comprehensive search of the literature on the subject was carried out in all significant databases to extract pertinent papers. There have been many formulations found with different material compositions, production methods, structural and bioactive features, and in vitro and in vivo properties. When these formulations contain additional biofunctional ingredients, such as drugs, proteins, enzymes, or antibacterial agents, they offer improved biomedical applications. Moreover, a lot of these formulations allow cell loading and promote the development of smart formulations based on CaPO4. This evaluation also discusses basic problems and scientific difficulties that call for more investigation and advancements. It also indicates perspectives for the future.

Kara Özenler A, Distler T, Akkineni AR, Tihminlioglu F, Gelinsky M, Boccaccini AR. 3D bioprinting of mouse pre-osteoblasts and human MSCs using bioinks consisting of gelatin and decellularized bone particles. Biofabrication 2024; 16:025027. [PMID: 38394672 DOI: 10.1088/1758-5090/ad2c98] [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: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024]
Abstract
One of the key challenges in biofabrication applications is to obtain bioinks that provide a balance between printability, shape fidelity, cell viability, and tissue maturation. Decellularization methods allow the extraction of natural extracellular matrix, preserving tissue-specific matrix proteins. However, the critical challenge in bone decellularization is to preserve both organic (collagen, proteoglycans) and inorganic components (hydroxyapatite) to maintain the natural composition and functionality of bone. Besides, there is a need to investigate the effects of decellularized bone (DB) particles as a tissue-based additive in bioink formulation to develop functional bioinks. Here we evaluated the effect of incorporating DB particles of different sizes (≤45 and ≤100μm) and concentrations (1%, 5%, 10% (wt %)) into bioink formulations containing gelatin (GEL) and pre-osteoblasts (MC3T3-E1) or human mesenchymal stem cells (hTERT-MSCs). In addition, we propose a minimalistic bioink formulation using GEL, DB particles and cells with an easy preparation process resulting in a high cell viability. The printability properties of the inks were evaluated. Additionally, rheological properties were determined with shear thinning and thixotropy tests. The bioprinted constructs were cultured for 28 days. The viability, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation capacity of cells were evaluated using biochemical assays and fluorescence microscopy. The incorporation of DB particles enhanced cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation capacity which might be due to the natural collagen and hydroxyapatite content of DB particles. Alkaline phosphatase activity is increased significantly by using DB particles, notably, without an osteogenic induction of the cells. Moreover, fluorescence images display pronounced cell-material interaction and cell attachment inside the constructs. With these promising results, the present minimalistic bioink formulation is envisioned as a potential candidate for bone tissue engineering as a clinically translatable material with straightforward preparation and high cell activity.

Abstract
Maxillofacial bone defects caused by congenital malformations, trauma, tumors, and inflammation can severely affect functions and aesthetics of maxillofacial region. Despite certain successful clinical applications of biomaterial scaffolds, ideal bone regeneration remains a challenge in maxillofacial region due to its irregular shape, complex structure, and unique biological functions. Scaffolds that address multiple needs of maxillofacial bone regeneration are under development to optimize bone regeneration capacity, costs, operational convenience. etc. In this review, we first highlight the special considerations of bone regeneration in maxillofacial region and provide an overview of the biomaterial scaffolds for maxillofacial bone regeneration under clinical examination and their efficacy, which provide basis and directions for future scaffold design. Latest advances of these scaffolds are then discussed, as well as future perspectives and challenges. Deepening our understanding of these scaffolds will help foster better innovations to improve the outcome of maxillofacial bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Nanoporous materials are categorized as microporous (pore sizes 0.2-2 nm), mesoporous (pore sizes 2-50 nm), and macroporous (pore sizes 50-1000 nm). Mesoporous silica (MS) has gained a significant interest due to its notable characteristics, including organized pore networks, specific surface areas, and the ability to be integrated in a variety of morphologies. Recently, MS has been widely accepted by range of manufacturer and as drug carrier. Moreover, silica nanoparticles containing mesopores, also known as mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), have attracted widespread attention in additive manufacturing (AM). AM commonly known as three-dimensional printing is the formalized rapid prototyping (RP) technology. AM techniques, in comparison to conventional methods, aid in reducing the necessity for tooling and allow versatility in product and design customization. There are generally several types of AM processes reported including VAT polymerization (VP), powder bed fusion (PBF), sheet lamination (SL), material extrusion (ME), binder jetting (BJ), direct energy deposition (DED), and material jetting (MJ). Furthermore, AM techniques are utilized in fabrication of various classified fields such as architectural modeling, fuel cell manufacturing, lightweight machines, medical, and fabrication of drug delivery systems. The review concisely elaborates on applications of mesoporous silica as versatile material in fabrication of various AM-based pharmaceutical products with an elaboration on various AM techniques to reduce the knowledge gap.

Abstract
Many traditional Chinese medicine monomers, such as naringin (NG), can regulate the local immune microenvironment to benefit osteogenesis. However, the rapid release of NG from scaffolds severely influences the osteogenesis-promoting effect. Herein, NG was loaded into mesoporous bioglass (MBG) to achieve sustained release through physical adsorption and the barrier role of mesoporous channels, then MBG loaded with NG was added to poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) to fabricate composite scaffolds by selective laser sintering (SLS) technology. The results showed that the NG-MBG/PLLA scaffolds could continuously and slowly release NG for 14 days compared with NG/PLLA scaffolds, and the cumulative release amount for the NG-MBG/PLLA scaffolds was 44.26%. In addition, the NG-MBG/PLLA scaffolds can promote the proliferation and osteogenesis differentiation of mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mBMSCs). Meanwhile, the composite scaffolds decreased the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level of RAW264.7 under the stimulation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and significantly suppressed interleukin-6 (IL-6) and enhanced arginase-1 (Arg-1) protein expressions. Moreover, calcium nodule and alkaline phosphatase production of mBMSCs in a macrophage-conditioned medium for the NG-MBG/PLLA group also evidently increased compared with the PLLA and MBG/PLLA groups. These NG sustained-release composite scaffolds with osteo-immunomodulation function have great application prospects in the clinic.

Mesoporous Bioactive Glass-Incorporated Injectable Strontium-Containing Calcium Phosphate Cement Enhanced Osteoconductivity in a Critical-Sized Metaphyseal Defect in Osteoporotic Rats. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:1203. [PMID: 37892933 PMCID: PMC10604136 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering10101203] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, the in vitro and in vivo bone formation behavior of mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) particles incorporated in a pasty strontium-containing calcium phosphate bone cement (pS100G10) was studied in a metaphyseal fracture-defect model in ovariectomized rats and compared to a plain pasty strontium-containing calcium phosphate bone cement (pS100) and control (empty defect) group, respectively. In vitro testing showed good cytocompatibility on human preosteoblasts and ongoing dissolution of the MBG component. Neither the released strontium nor the BMG particles from the pS100G10 had a negative influence on cell viability. Forty-five female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to three different treatment groups: (1) pS100 (n = 15), (2) pS100G10 (n = 15), and (3) empty defect (n = 15). Twelve weeks after bilateral ovariectomy and multi-deficient diet, a 4 mm wedge-shaped fracture-defect was created at the metaphyseal area of the left femur in all animals. The originated fracture-defect was substituted with pS100 or pS100G10 or left empty. After six weeks, histomorphometrical analysis revealed a statistically significant higher bone volume/tissue volume ratio in the pS100G10 group compared to the pS100 (p = 0.03) and empty defect groups (p = 0.0001), indicating enhanced osteoconductivity with the incorporation of MBG. Immunohistochemistry revealed a significant decrease in the RANKL/OPG ratio for pS100 (p = 0.004) and pS100G10 (p = 0.003) compared to the empty defect group. pS100G10 showed a statistically higher expression of BMP-2. In addition, a statistically significant higher gene expression of alkaline phosphatase, osteoprotegerin, collagen1a1, collagen10a1 with a simultaneous decrease in RANKL, and carbonic anhydrase was seen in the pS100 and pS100G10 groups compared to the empty defect group. Mass spectrometric imaging by time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) showed the release of Sr2+ ions from both pS100 and pS100G10, with a gradient into the interface region. ToF-SIMS imaging also revealed that resorption of the MBG particles allowed for new bone formation in cement pores. In summary, the current work shows better bone formation of the injectable pasty strontium-containing calcium phosphate bone cement with incorporated mesoporous bioactive glass compared to the bioactive-free bone cement and empty defects and can be considered for clinical application for osteopenic fracture defects in the future.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate cements (CPC) are currently widely used bone replacement materials with excellent bioactivity, but have considerable disadvantages like slow degradation. For critical-sized defects, however, an improved degradation is essential to match the tissue regeneration, especially in younger patients who are still growing. We demonstrate that a combination of CPC with mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) particles led to an enhanced degradation in vitro and in a critical alveolar cleft defect in rats. Additionally, to support new bone formation the MBG was functionalized with hypoxia conditioned medium (HCM) derived from rat bone marrow stromal cells. HCM-functionalized scaffolds showed an improved cell proliferation and the highest formation of new bone volume. This highly flexible material system together with the drug delivery capacity is adaptable to patient specific needs and has great potential for clinical translation.

Abstract
Bone defect repair remains a major clinical challenge that requires the construction of scaffolds that can regulate bone homeostasis. In this study, a photo-cured mesoporous bioactive glass (PMBG) precursor is developed as a tricalcium phosphate (TCP) agglomerant to obtain a double-phase PMBG/TCP scaffold via 3D printing. The scaffold exhibits multi-scale porous structures and large surface areas, making it a suitable carrier for the loading of parathyroid hormone (PTH) (1-34), which is used for the treatment of osteoporosis. In vitro and in vivo results demonstrate that PMBG/TCP scaffolds coordinated with PTH (1-34) can regulate bone homeostasis in a bidirectional manner to facilitate bone formation and inhibit bone resorption. Furthermore, bidirectional regulation of bone homeostasis by PTH (1-34) is achieved by inhibiting fibrogenic activation protein (FAP). Thus, PMBG/TCP scaffolds coordinated with PTH (1-34) are viable materials with considerable potential for application in the field of bone regeneration and provide an excellent solution for the design and development of clinical materials.

Acta Biomater 2023; 158:308-323. [PMID: 36563775 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.12.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 12/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
During extrusion printing of pasty biomaterials, internal geometries are mainly adjusted by positioning of straightly deposited strands which does not allow realization of spatially adaptable density gradients in x-, y- and z-direction for anisotropic scaffolds or anatomically shaped constructs. Herein, an alternative concept for printing patterns based on sinusoidal curves was evaluated using a clinically approved calcium phosphate cement (CPC). Infill density in scaffolds was adjusted by varying wavelength and amplitude of a sinus curve. Both wavelength and amplitude factors were defined by multitudes of the applied nozzle diameter. For CPC as a biomaterial ink in bone application, porosity, mechanical stiffness and biological response by seeded immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells - adhesion and pore bridging behavior - were investigated. The internal structure of a xyz-gradient scaffold was proven via X-ray based micro computed tomography (µCT). Silicone was used as a model material to investigate the impact of printing velocity and strand distance on the shape fidelity of the sinus pattern for soft matter printing. The impact of different sinus patterns on mechanical properties was assessed. Density and mechanical properties of CPC scaffolds were successfully adjusted without an adverse effect on adhesion and cell number development. In a proof-of-concept experiment, a sinus-adjusted density gradient in an anatomically shaped construct (human vertebral body) defined via clinical computed tomography (CT) data was demonstrated. This fills a technological gap for extrusion-based printing of freely adjustable, continuously guidable infill density gradients in all spatial directions. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: 3D extrusion printing of biomaterials allows the generation of anatomically shaped, patient-specific implants or tissue engineering scaffolds. The density of such a structure is typically adjusted by the strand-to-strand distance of parallel, straight-meandered strands in each deposited layer. By printing in a sinusoidal pattern, design of density gradients is possible with a free, spatial resolution in x-, y- and z-direction. We demonstrated that porosity and mechanical properties can be freely adapted in this way without an adverse effect on cell adhesion. With the example of a CT dataset of a human spine, the anisotropic pattern of a vertebral body was resembled by this printing technique that can be translated to various patterns, materials and application.

Abstract
Bone regeneration using inorganic nanoparticles is a robust and safe approach. In this paper, copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) loaded with calcium phosphate scaffolds were studied for their bone regeneration potential in vitro. The pneumatic extrusion method of 3D printing was employed to prepare calcium phosphate cement (CPC) and copper loaded CPC scaffolds with varying wt% of copper nanoparticles. A new aliphatic compound Kollisolv MCT 70 was used to ensure the uniform mixing of copper nanoparticles with CPC matrix. The printed scaffolds were studied for physico-chemical characterization for surface morphology, pore size, wettability, XRD, and FTIR. The copper ion release was studied in phosphate buffer saline at pH 7.4. The in vitro cell culture studies for the scaffolds were performed using human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). The cell proliferation study in CPC-Cu scaffolds showed significant cell growth compared to CPC. The CPC-Cu scaffolds showed improved alkaline phosphatase activity and angiogenic potential compared to CPC. The CPC-Cu scaffolds showed significant concentration dependent antibacterial activity in Staphylococcus aureus. Overall, the CPC scaffolds loaded with 1 wt% Cu NPs showed improved activity compared to other CPC-Cu and CPC scaffolds. The results showed that copper has improved the osteogenic, angiogenic and antibacterial properties of CPC scaffolds, facilitating better bone regeneration in vitro.

Abstract
Bone regeneration is one of the most well-known fields in tissue regeneration. The major focus concerns polymeric/ceramic composite scaffolds. In this work, several composite scaffolds based on chitosan (CH), with low and high molecular weights, and different concentrations of ceramics like mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG), mesoporous hydroxyapatite (MHAp) and both MBG and MHAp (MC) were produced by lyophilization. The purpose is to identify the best combination regarding optimal morphology and properties. The tests of the scaffolds present a highly porous structure with interconnected pores. The compression modulus increases with ceramic concentration in the scaffolds. Furthermore, the 75%MBG (835 ± 160 kPa) and 50%MC (1070 ± 205 kPa) samples are the ones that mostly enhance increases in mechanical properties. The swelling capacity increases with MBG and MC, respectively, to 700% and 900% and decreases to 400% when MHAp concentration increases. All scaffolds are non-cytotoxic at 12.5 mg/mL. The CHL scaffolds improve cell adhesion and proliferation compared to CHH, and the MC scaffold samples, show better results than those produced with just MBG or MHAp. The composite scaffolds of chitosan with MBG and MHAp, have revealed to be the best combination due to their enhanced performance in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) is similar to bone in composition and has plasticity, while mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) has the advantage of releasing Si, which can promote osteogenic properties and drug loading capacity. A sol–gel-prepared MBG micro-powder (mMBG) and further impregnated antibiotic gentamicin sulfate (Genta@mMBG: 2, 3, and 4 mg/mL) antibiotic were added to CPC at different weight ratios (5, 10, and 15 wt.%) to study CPC’s potential clinical applications. Different ratios of mMBG/CPC composite bone cement showed good injectability and disintegration resistance, but with increasing mMBG addition, the working/setting time and compressive strength decreased. The maximum additive amount was 10 wt.% mMBG due to the working time of ~5 min, the setting time of ~10 min, and the compressive strength of ~51 MPa, indicating that it was more suitable for clinical surgical applications than the other groups. The 2Genta@mMBG group loaded with 2 mg/mL gentamicin had good antibacterial activity, and the 10 wt.% 2Genta@mMBG/CPC composite bone cement still had good antibacterial activity but reduced the initial release of Genta. 2Genta@mMBG was found to have slight cytotoxicity, so 2Genta@mMBG was composited into CPC to improve the biocompatibility and to endow CPC with more advantages for clinical application.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) is a self-setting, biocompatible and osteoconductive bone cement, however its use as a bone substitute is still limited owing to its low bioactivity (i.e. its slow in vivo resorption and slow new bone formation rate) which is a challenging issue to be addressed. Herein, we report for the first time highly bioactive bone cement microspheres formulated from a cement paste containing α-tricalcium phosphate microparticles (α-TCP) and mesoporous calcium silicate bioactive glass nanoparticles (mesoporous BGn) using a water-in-oil emulsion method. Indeed, bioactive microspheres possess high potential as bone defect fillers for bone regeneration. The α-TCP microparticles were prepared by a solid state synthesis at 1400 ºC while mesoporous BGn were synthesized by template-assissted ultrasound-mediated sol-gel method. The particle size distribution of as-prepared cement microspheres was in the range of 200 - 450 µm with a sphericity index in the range of 0.92 - 0.94. The surface morphology of α-TCP microspheres revealed α-TCP micoparticles with smooth surfaces whereas α-TCP/BGn microspheres unveiled nano-roughened α-TCP microparticles. The as-prepared α-TCP/BGn cement microspheres exhibited larger specific surface area ca 18.6 m2/g, sustained release of soluble silicate (SiO44-) ions (118 ppm within a week) and high protein adsorption capacity (252 mg/g). Notably, the α-TCP/BGn cement microspheres showed excellent in vitro surface bioactivity via formation of massive amounts of bone-like hydroxyapatite spherules and aggregates on their surfaces after soaking in simulated body fluid. Importantly, the in vivo implantation of as-prepared α-TCP/BGn cement microspheres in rat calvarial critical size bone defects for 6 weeks unveiled high in vivo bioactivity in terms of substantial new bone ingrowth and significant new bone formation within the bone defect as evidenced by histological analyses, X-ray radiography and micro-computed tomography evaluations.
