Imidazole functionalized photo-crosslinked aliphatic polycarbonate drug-eluting coatings on zinc alloys for osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and bacteriostasis in bone regeneration. Bioact Mater 2024; 37:549-562. [PMID: 38756420 PMCID: PMC11096721 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2024.03.037] [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: 12/07/2023] [Revised: 03/31/2024] [Accepted: 03/31/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Zinc (Zn) alloys have demonstrated significant potential in healing critical-sized bone defects. However, the clinical application of Zn alloys implants is still hindered by challenges including excessive release of zinc ions (Zn2+), particularly in the early stage of implantation, and absence of bio-functions related to complex bone repair processes. Herein, a biodegradable aliphatic polycarbonate drug-eluting coating was fabricated on zinc-lithium (Zn-Li) alloys to inhibit Zn2+ release and enhance the osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and bacteriostasis of Zn alloys. Specifically, the photo-curable aliphatic polycarbonates were co-assembled with simvastatin and deposited onto Zn alloys to produce a drug-loaded coating, which was crosslinked by subsequent UV light irradiation. During the 60 days long-term immersion test, the coating showed distinguished stable drug release and Zn2+ release inhibition properties. Benefiting from the regulated release of Zn2+ and simvastatin, the coating facilitated the adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells, as well as the migration and tube formation of EA.hy926 cells. Astonishingly, the coating also showed remarkable antibacterial properties against both S. aureus and E. coli. The in vivo rabbit critical-size femur bone defects model demonstrated that the drug-eluting coating could efficiently promote new bone formation and the expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (CD31) and osteocalcin (OCN). The enhancement of osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and bacteriostasis is achieved by precisely controlling of the released Zn2+ at an appropriate level, as well as the stable release profile of simvastatin. This tailored aliphatic polycarbonate drug-eluting coating provides significant potential for clinical applications of Zn alloys implants.

Abstract
In this work, the hydroxyapatite (HA) microspheres are utilized as carriers for 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) inhibitors with a sodium alginate-silver nitrate layer (Ag-SA) added to confer chloride-responsive properties. These 8-HQ@Ag-SA-HA microspheres are subsequently integrated into poly(lactic acid) (PLA) coatings to produce biocompatible coatings. The resulting 8-HQ@Ag-SA-HA microsphere exhibits a spherical structure with a diameter of 3.16 μm. Thermogravimetric analysis indicates that the encapsulated 8-HQ inhibitors are approximately 11.83 wt %. Furthermore, the incorporation of these microspheres fills the micropores within the PLA coating, leading to a denser coating surface, enhanced wettability (contact angle value = 88°), and improved adhesion strength, thereby reinforcing the physical barrier effect. Corrosion tests reveal that the coatings exhibit increased resistance to corrosion in simulated body fluid (SBF) solutions. The released 8-HQ inhibitors in response to chloride ions form a protective layer of Mg(HQ)2, providing the coatings with self-healing properties and ensuring their durability in the SBF environment. Additionally, the cell test demonstrates a significant presence of MG-63 cells, accompanied by a low hemolysis rate of 3.81%, confirming the exceptional biocompatibility of the coatings. These findings offer valuable insights into the development of stimuli-responsive biocompatible coatings for effectively protecting Mg alloys.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1327517. [PMID: 38125305 PMCID: PMC10731276 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1327517] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Esophageal stricture (ES) results from benign and malignant conditions, such as uncontrolled gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and esophageal neoplasms. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy is the preferred diagnostic approach for ES and its underlying causes. Stent insertion using an endoscope is a prevalent method for alleviating or treating ES. Nevertheless, the widely used self-expandable metal stents (SEMS) and self-expandable plastic stents (SEPS) can result in complications such as migration and restenosis. Furthermore, they necessitate secondary extraction in cases of benign esophageal stricture (BES), rendering them unsatisfactory for clinical requirements. Over the past 3 decades, significant attention has been devoted to biodegradable materials, including synthetic polyester polymers and magnesium-based alloys, owing to their exceptional biocompatibility and biodegradability while addressing the challenges associated with recurring procedures after BES resolves. Novel esophageal stents have been developed and are undergoing experimental and clinical trials. Drug-eluting stents (DES) with drug-loading and drug-releasing capabilities are currently a research focal point, offering more efficient and precise ES treatments. Functional innovations have been investigated to optimize stent performance, including unidirectional drug-release and anti-migration features. Emerging manufacturing technologies such as three-dimensional (3D) printing and new biodegradable materials such as hydrogels have also contributed to the innovation of esophageal stents. The ultimate objective of the research and development of these materials is their clinical application in the treatment of ES and other benign conditions and the palliative treatment of malignant esophageal stricture (MES). This review aimed to offer a comprehensive overview of current biodegradable esophageal stent materials and their applications, highlight current research limitations and innovations, and offer insights into future development priorities and directions.

Poly(l-lactide)/polycaprolactone based multifunctional coating to deliver paclitaxel/VEGF and control the degradation rate of magnesium alloy stent. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 250:126218.

Abstract
Despite significant advancements made in cardiovascular stents, restenosis, thrombosis, biocompatibility, and clinical complications remain a matter of concern. Herein, we report a biodegradable Mg alloy stent with a dual effect of the drug (Paclitaxel) and growth factor (VEGF) release. To mitigate the fast degradation of Mg alloy, inorganic and organic coatings were formed on the alloy surface. The optimized hierarchal sequence of the coating was the first layer consisting of magnesium fluoride, followed by poly(l-lactide) and hydroxyapatite coating, and finally sealed by a polycaprolactone layer (MgC). PLLA and HAp were used to increase the adhesion strength and biocompatibility of the coating. Paclitaxel and VEGF were loaded in the final PCL layer (Mg-C/PTX-VEGF). As compared to bare Mg alloy (28 % weight loss), our MgC system showed (3.1 % weight loss) successful decrease in the degradation rate. Further, the in vitro biocompatibility illustrated the highly biocompatible nature of our drug and growth factor-loaded system. The in vivo results displayed that the drug loading decreased the inflammation and neointimal hyperplasia as indicated by the α-SMA and CD-68 antibody staining. The growth factor helped in the endothelialization which was established by the FLKI and ICAM antibody staining of the tissue.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) alloys are a very attractive material of construction for biodegradable temporary implants. However, Mg alloys suffer unacceptably rapid corrosion rates in aqueous environments, including physiological fluid, that may cause premature mechanical failure of the implant. This necessitates a biodegradable surface barrier coating that should delay the corrosion of the implant until the fractured/damaged bone has healed. This review takes a brief account of the merits and demerits of various existing coating methodologies for the mitigation of Mg alloy corrosion. Since among the different coating approaches investigated, no single coating recipe seems to address the degradation control and functionality entirely, this review argues the need for polymer-based and biodegradable composite coatings.

Abstract
Iron-, magnesium-, or zinc-based metal vessel stents support vessel expansion at the period early after implantation and degrade away after vascular reconstruction, eliminating the side effects due to the long stay of stent implants in the body and the risks of restenosis and neoatherosclerosis. However, emerging evidence has indicated that their degradation alters the vascular microenvironment and induces adaptive responses of surrounding vessel cells, especially vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). VSMCs are highly flexible cells that actively alter their phenotype in response to the stenting, similarly to what they do during all stages of atherosclerosis pathology, which significantly influences stent performance. This Review discusses how biodegradable metal stents modify vascular conditions and how VSMCs respond to various chemical, biological, and physical signals attributable to stent implantation. The focus is placed on the phenotypic adaptation of VSMCs and the clinical complications, which highlight the importance of VSMC transformation in future stent design.

Abstract
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) membranes are commonly used for periodontal tissue regeneration. Due to the complications of existing GBR membranes, the design of bioactive membranes is still relevant. GBR membranes with an asymmetric structure can accommodate the functional requirements of different interfacial tissues. Here, poly(lactic acid-glycolic acid) (PLGA) was selected as the matrix for preparing a bi-layered membrane with both dense and porous structure. The dense layer for blocking soft tissues was incorporated with zinc (Zn) particles, while the porous layer for promoting bone regeneration was co-incorporated with magnesium (Mg) and Zn particles. Mg/Zn-embedded PLGA membranes exhibited 166% higher mechanical strength in comparison with pure PLGA membranes and showed suitable degradation properties with a sequential ion release behavior of Mg2+ first and continuously Zn2+. More importantly, the release of Zn2+ from bi-layered PLGA endowed GBR membranes with excellent antibacterial activity (antibacterial rate > 69.3%) as well as good cytocompatibility with MC3T3-E1 (mouse calvaria pre-osteoblastic cells) and HGF-1 (human gingival fibroblast cells). Thus, the asymmetric bi-layered PLGA membranes embedded with Mg and Zn particles provide a simple and effective strategy to not only reinforce the PLGA membrane but also endow membranes with osteogenic and antibacterial activity due to the continuous ion release profile, which serves as a promising candidate for use in GBR therapy.

Abstract
Poly(trimethylene carbonate) (PTMC), as one of the representatives of biodegradable aliphatic polycarbonates, has been found to degrade in vivo via surface erosion. This unique degradation behavior and the resulting nonacidic products make it more competitive with aliphatic polyesters (e.g., polylactide) in clinical practice. However, this surface degradation mechanism is complicated and not fully understood to date despite the findings that several reactive oxygen species and enzymes can specifically degrade PTMC in vitro. Herein, the biodegradation mechanism of PTMC was investigated by using possible degradation factors, distinct cell lines, and the inhibitors of these factors. The results demonstrate that PTMC undergoes a specific macrophage-mediated erosion. Macrophages tend to fuse into giant cells and elicit a typical inflammatory response by releasing proinflammatory cytokines. In addition, macrophages are suggested to primarily secrete enzymes (lipase specifically) to erode the PTMC bulk extracellularly as inhibiting their activity effectively prevented this eroding process. The clarification of the biodegradation mechanism in this work suggests that the degradation of PTMC highly depends on the foreign body response. Thus, it reminds the researchers to consider the effect of the microenvironment on the degradation and drug release of PTMC-based implantation devices and localized drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Control of premature corrosion of magnesium (Mg) alloy bioresorbable stents (BRS) is frequently achieved by the addition of rare earth elements. However, limited long-term experience with these elements causes concerns for clinical application and alternative methods of corrosion control are sought after. Herein, we report a "built-up" composite film consisting of a bottom layer of MgF2 conversion coating, a sandwich layer of a poly (1, 3-trimethylene carbonate) (PTMC) and 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) co-spray coating (PA) and on top a layer of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) ultrasonic spray coating to decorate the rare earth element-free Mg-2Zn-1Mn (ZM21) BRS for tailoring both corrosion resistance and biological functions. The developed "built-up" composite film shows synergistic functionalities, allowing the compression and expansion of the coated ZM21 BRS on an angioplasty balloon without cracking or peeling. Of special importance is that the synergistic corrosion control effects of the "built-up" composite film allow for maintaining the mechanical integrity of stents for up to 3 months, where complete biodegradation and no foreign matter residue were observed about half a year after implantation in rabbit iliac arteries. Moreover, the functionalized ZM21 BRS accomplished re-endothelialization within one month.

Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 218:112725. [PMID: 35914466 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2022.112725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2022] [Revised: 07/12/2022] [Accepted: 07/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Zinc and its alloys are the best candidates for biodegradable cardiovascular stents due to their good corrosion rate and biocompatibility in vasculature. However, the cytotoxicity caused by the rapid release of zinc ions during the initial degradation stage and the lack of an anticoagulant function are huge challenges for their practical clinical applications. In this work, we developed a zinc ion-crosslinked polycarbonate/heparin composite coating via electrophoretic deposition (EPD) to improve the biocompatibility and provide anticoagulant functions for Zn-alloy stents. Both electrochemical tests and in vitro immersion tests demonstrated an enhanced corrosion resistance and lower Zn ion release rate of the coated Zn alloys. Enhanced adhesion and proliferation of endothelial cells on coated Zn alloys were also observed, indicating faster reendothelialization than that on bare Zn alloys. Moreover, the surface erosion of the composite coating led to the uniform and long-term release of heparin, which remarkably inhibited the adhesion and activation of platelets, and may have endowed the coated Zn-alloy stents with long-term anticoagulant functions.

Abstract
Chronic wounds such as diabetic feet undergo a lifetime risk of developing into incurable ulcers. Current treatments for chronic wounds remain unsatisfactory due to the lack of ideal wound dressings that integrate facile dressing change, long-acting treatment, and high therapeutic efficacy into one system. Herein, a synergistically detachable microneedle (MN) dressing with a dual-layer structure is presented to enable programmed treatment via one-time dressing application. Such a dual-layer dressing MN system (DDMNS) is composed of chitosan (CS) hydrogel dressing (CSHD) on top of a detachable MN patch with a CS tip and a polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) backing substrate incorporated with magnesium (Mg). The synergistic detachment is achieved with the backing Mg/PVP substrate dissolving within minutes due to the local moist environment of the CSHD enhancing the reaction between Mg and inflammation microenvironment. The combined treatment of Mg and panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) loaded in DDMNS achieves antibacterial, neovascularization, and activating a benign immune response so that the three overlapping periods of the inflammation, tissue proliferation, and tissue remodeling of wound healing reach a dynamic balance. This advanced DDMNS provides a facile approach for the programmed treatment of chronic wound management indicating potential value in wound healing and other related biomedical fields.

Abstract
The main goal of this study was to develop a novel poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) composite biodegradable material with magnesium (Mg) metal to overcome the acidic degradation of PLGA and to investigate the cytocompatibility and osteogenesis of the novel material. PLGA composites with 5 and 10 wt% Mg were prepared. The samples were initially cut into 10 mm × 10 mm films, which were used to detect the pH value to evaluate the self-neutralized ability. Murine embryo osteoblast precursor (MC3T3-E1) cells were used for in vitro experiments to evaluate the cytotoxicity, apoptosis, adhesion, and osteogenic differentiation effect of the composite biodegradable material. pH monitoring showed that the average value of PLGA with 10 wt% Mg group was closer to the normal physiological environment than that of other groups. Cell proliferation and adhesion assays indicated no significant difference between the groups, and all the samples showed no toxicity to cells. As for cell apoptosis detection, the rate of early apoptotic cells was proportional to the ratio of Mg. However, the ratios of the experimental groups were lower than those of the control group. Alkaline phosphatase activity staining demonstrated that PLGA with 10 wt% Mg could effectively improve the osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. In summary, PLGA with 10 wt% Mg possessed effective osteogenic properties and cytocompatibility and therefore could provide a wide range of applications in bone defect repair and scaffold-based tissue engineering in clinical practice.

Abstract
In recent decades, we have witnessed radical changes in the use of permanent biomaterials. The intrinsic ability of magnesium (Mg) and its alloys to degrade without releasing toxic degradation products has led to a vast range of applications in the biomedical field, including cardiovascular stents, musculoskeletal, and orthopedic applications. With the use of biodegradable Mg biomaterials, patients would not suffer second surgery and surgical pain anymore. Be that as it may, the main drawbacks of these biomaterials are the high corrosion rate and unexpected degradation in physiological environments. Since biodegradable Mg-based implants are expected to show controllable degradation and match the requirements of specific applications, various techniques, such as designing a magnesium alloy and modifying the surface characteristics, are employed to tailor the degradation rate. In this paper, some fundamentals and particular aspects of magnesium degradation in physiological environments are summarized, and approaches to control the degradation behavior of Mg-based biomaterials are presented.
