Abstract
Healing of fractures or bone defects is significantly hindered by overactivated osteoclasts and inhibited osteogenesis in patients with abnormal bone metabolism. Current clinical approaches using titanium alloys or stainless steel provide mechanical support but have no biological effects on bone regeneration. Therefore, designing and fabricating degradable metal materials with sufficient mechanical strength and bidirectional regulation of both osteoblasts and osteoclasts is a substantial challenge. Here, this study first reported an adaptive biodegradable Zn-0.8 Mg alloy with bidirectional regulation of bone homeostasis, which promotes osteogenic differentiation by activating the Pi3k/Akt pathway and inhibits osteoclast differentiation by inhibiting the GRB2/ERK pathway. The anti-osteolytic ability of the Zn-0.8 Mg alloy was verified in a mouse calvarial osteolysis model and its suitability for internal fracture fixation with high-strength screws was confirmed in the rabbit femoral condyle fracture model. Furthermore, in an aged postmenopausal rat femoral condyle defect model, 3D printed Zn-0.8 Mg scaffolds promoted excellent bone regeneration through adaptive structures with good mechanical properties and bidirectionally regulated bone metabolism, enabling personalized bone defect repair. These findings demonstrate the substantial potential of the Zn-0.8 Mg alloy for treating fractures or bone defects in patients with aberrant bone metabolism.

Photobiomodulation and mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium for the repair of experimental critical-size defects. Lasers Med Sci 2024; 39:158. [PMID: 38888695 DOI: 10.1007/s10103-024-04109-9] [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: 01/09/2023] [Accepted: 06/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
Orthopedic surgeons face a significant challenge in treating critical-size femoral defects (CSFD) caused by osteoporosis (OP), trauma, infection, or bone tumor resections. In this study for the first time, the application of photobiomodulation (PBM) and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium (BM-MSC-CM) to improve the osteogenic characteristics of mineralized bone scaffold (MBS) in ovariectomy-induced osteoporotic (OVX) rats with a CSFD was tested. Five groups of OVX rats with CSFD were created: (1) Control (C); (2) MBS; (3) MBS + CM; (4) MBS + PBM; (5) MBS + CM + PBM. Computed tomography scans (CT scans), compression indentation tests, and histological and stereological analyses were carried out after euthanasia at 12 weeks following implantation surgery. The CT scan results showed that CSFD in the MBS + CM, MBS + PBM, and MBS + CM + PBM groups was significantly smaller compared to the control group (p = 0.01, p = 0.04, and p = 0.000, respectively). Moreover, the CSFD size was substantially smaller in the MBS + CM + PBM treatment group than in the MBS, MBS + CM, and MBS + PBM treatment groups (p = 0.004, p = 0.04, and p = 0.01, respectively). The MBS + PBM and MBS + CM + PBM treatments had significantly increased maximum force relative to the control group (p = 0.01 and p = 0.03, respectively). Bending stiffness significantly increased in MBS (p = 0.006), MBS + CM, MBS + PBM, and MBS + CM + PBM treatments (all p = 0.004) relative to the control group. All treatment groups had considerably higher new trabecular bone volume (NTBV) than the control group (all, p = 0.004). Combined therapies with MBS + PBM and MBS + CM + PBM substantially increased the NTBV relative to the MBS group (all, p = 0.004). The MBS + CM + PBM treatment had a markedly higher NTBV than the MBS + PBM (p = 0.006) and MBS + CM (p = 0.004) treatments. MBS + CM + PBM, MBS + PBM, and MBS + CM treatments significantly accelerated bone regeneration of CSFD in OVX rats. PBM + CM enhanced the osteogenesis of the MBS compared to other treatment groups.

Abstract
Almost all biological processes in the human body are regulated by circadian rhythm, which results in drastically different biochemical and physiological conditions throughout a 24 h period. Hence, suitable drug delivery systems should be efficiently monitored to attain the required therapeutic plasma concentration and therapeutic drug responses when needed as per chrono pharmacological concepts. "Chronotherapy" is the fast and transient release of a particular quantity of drug substance post a predetermined off-release period, termed as 'lag time'. Due to rhythmic variations, it is typically unnecessary to administer a medicine drug in an unhealthy condition constantly. Pulsatile drug delivery systems have received a lot of attention in pharmaceutical development because they give a quick or rate-controlled drug release after administration, followed by an anticipated lag period. Patients with various illnesses, such as asthma, hypertension, joint inflammation, and ulcers, can benefit from a pulsatile drug delivery system. Thus, a pulsatile drug delivery system may be a potential system for managing different diseases. This review mainly focuses on pulsatile drug delivery systems. It reviews and discusses the rationale, drug release mechanism, need, and system classification. In addition, it covers mainly externally regulated pulsatile drug delivery systems and recent advances in pulsatile systems like artificial intelligence and 3D printing. It also covers the ethical issues associated with pulsatile drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Osteomyelitis is a devastating disease caused by microbial infection in deep bone tissue. Its high recurrence rate and impaired restoration of bone deficiencies are major challenges in treatment. Microbes have evolved numerous mechanisms to effectively evade host intrinsic and adaptive immune attacks to persistently localize in the host, such as drug-resistant bacteria, biofilms, persister cells, intracellular bacteria, and small colony variants (SCVs). Moreover, microbial-mediated dysregulation of the bone immune microenvironment impedes the bone regeneration process, leading to impaired bone defect repair. Despite advances in surgical strategies and drug applications for the treatment of bone infections within the last decade, challenges remain in clinical management. The development and application of tissue engineering materials have provided new strategies for the treatment of bone infections, but a comprehensive review of their research progress is lacking. This review discusses the critical pathogenic mechanisms of microbes in the skeletal system and their immunomodulatory effects on bone regeneration, and highlights the prospects and challenges for the application of tissue engineering technologies in the treatment of bone infections. It will inform the development and translation of antimicrobial and bone repair tissue engineering materials for the management of bone infections.

Abstract
The various tissue damages are a severe problem to human health. The limited human tissue regenerate ability requires suitable biomaterials to help damage tissue repair and regeneration. Therefore, many researchers devoted themselves to exploring biomaterials suitable for tissue repair and regeneration. Polydopamine (PDA) as a natural and multifunctional material which is inspired by mussel has been widely applied in different biomaterials. The excellent properties of PDA, such as strong adhesion, photothermal and high drug-loaded capacity, seem to be born for tissue repair and regeneration. Furthermore, PDA combined with different materials can exert unexpected effects. Thus, to inspire researchers, this review summarizes the recent and representative development of PDA biomaterials in tissue repair and regeneration. This article focuses on why apply PDA in these biomaterials and what PDA can do in different tissue injuries.

Abstract
The number of patients with bone defects caused by trauma, bone tumors, and osteoporosis has increased considerably. The repair of irregular, recurring, and large bone defects poses a great challenge to clinicians. Bone tissue engineering is emerging as an appropriate strategy to replace autologous bone grafting in the repair of critically sized bone defects. However, the suitability of bone tissue engineering scaffolds in terms of structure, mechanics, degradation, and the microenvironment is inadequate. Three-dimensional (3D) printing is an advanced additive-manufacturing technology widely used for bone repair. 3D printing constructs personalized structurally adapted scaffolds based on 3D models reconstructed from CT images. The contradiction between the mechanics and degradation is resolved by altering the stacking structure. The local microenvironment of the implant is improved by designing an internal pore structure and a spatiotemporal factor release system. Therefore, there has been a boom in the 3D printing of personalized bone repair scaffolds. In this review, successful research on the preparation of highly bioadaptive bone tissue engineering scaffolds using 3D printing is presented. The mechanisms of structural, mechanical, degradation, and microenvironmental adaptations of bone prostheses and their interactions were elucidated to provide a feasible strategy for constructing highly bioadaptive bone tissue engineering scaffolds.

[PMID: 38260098 PMCID: PMC10800828 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2023.1289976] [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: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/21/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Osteoporosis (OP) is a chronic bone metabolic disease and a serious global public health problem. Several studies have shown that mitophagy plays an important role in bone metabolism disorders; however, its role in osteoporosis remains unclear. Methods: The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was used to download GSE56815, a dataset containing low and high BMD, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed. Mitochondrial autophagy-related genes (MRG) were downloaded from the existing literature, and highly correlated MRG were screened by bioinformatics methods. The results from both were taken as differentially expressed (DE)-MRG, and Gene Ontology (GO) analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis were performed. Protein-protein interaction network (PPI) analysis, support vector machine recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE), and Boruta method were used to identify DE-MRG. A receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn, a nomogram model was constructed to determine its diagnostic value, and a variety of bioinformatics methods were used to verify the relationship between these related genes and OP, including GO and KEGG analysis, IP pathway analysis, and single-sample Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (ssGSEA). In addition, a hub gene-related network was constructed and potential drugs for the treatment of OP were predicted. Finally, the specific genes were verified by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Results: In total, 548 DEGs were identified in the GSE56815 dataset. The weighted gene co-expression network analysis(WGCNA) identified 2291 key module genes, and 91 DE-MRG were obtained by combining the two. The PPI network revealed that the target gene for AKT1 interacted with most proteins. Three MRG (NELFB, SFSWAP, and MAP3K3) were identified as hub genes, with areas under the curve (AUC) 0.75, 0.71, and 0.70, respectively. The nomogram model has high diagnostic value. GO and KEGG analysis showed that ribosome pathway and cellular ribosome pathway may be the pathways regulating the progression of OP. IPA showed that MAP3K3 was associated with six pathways, including GNRH Signaling. The ssGSEA indicated that NELFB was highly correlated with iDCs (cor = -0.390, p < 0.001). The regulatory network showed a complex relationship between miRNA, transcription factor(TF) and hub genes. In addition, 4 drugs such as vinclozolin were predicted to be potential therapeutic drugs for OP. In RT-qPCR verification, the hub gene NELFB was consistent with the results of bioinformatics analysis. Conclusion: Mitophagy plays an important role in the development of osteoporosis. The identification of three mitophagy-related genes may contribute to the early diagnosis, mechanism research and treatment of OP.

Abstract
The treatment of bone defects remains a substantial clinical challenge due to the lack of spatiotemporal management of the immune microenvironment, revascularization, and osteogenic differentiation. Herein, deferoxamine (DFO)-loaded black phosphorus nanosheets decorated by polydopamine layer are prepared (BPPD) and compounded into gelatin methacrylate/sodium alginate methacrylate (GA) hybrid hydrogel as a smart-responsive therapeutic system (GA/BPPD) for accelerated bone regeneration. The BPPD nanocomposites served as bioactive components and near-infrared (NIR) photothermal agents, which conferred the hydrogel with excellent NIR/pH dual-responsive properties, realizing the stimuli-responsive release of DFO and PO4 3 - during bone regeneration. Under the action of NIR-triggered mild photothermal therapy, the GA/BPPD hydrogel exhibited a positive effect on promoting osteogenesis and angiogenesis, eliminating excessive reactive oxygen species, and inducing macrophage polarization to the M2 phenotype. More significantly, through macrophage M2 polarization-induced osteoimmune microenvironment, this hydrogel platform could also drive functional cytokine secretion for enhanced angiogenesis and osteogenesis. In vivo experiments further demonstrated that the GA/BPPD system could facilitate bone healing by attenuating the local inflammatory response, increasing the secretion of pro-healing factors, stimulating endogenous cell recruitment, and accelerating revascularization. Collectively, the proposed intelligent photothermal hydrogel platform provides a promising strategy to reshape the damaged tissue microenvironment for augmented bone regeneration.

Abstract
Bone defects in osteoporosis usually present excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), abnormal inflammation levels, irregular shapes and impaired bone regeneration ability; therefore, osteoporotic bone defects are difficult to repair. In this study, an injectable thermosensitive hydrogel poly (D, L-lactide)-poly (ethylene glycol)- poly (D, L-lactide) (PLEL) system containing resveratrol (Res) and dexamethasone (DEX) is designed to create a microenvironment conducive to osteogenesis in osteoporotic bone defects. This PLEL hydrogel is injected and filled irregular defect areas and achieving a rapid sol-gel transition in situ. Res has a strong anti-inflammatory effects that can effectively remove excess free radicals at the damaged site, guide macrophage polarization to the M2 phenotype, and regulate immune responses. Additionally, DEX can promote osteogenic differentiation. In vitro experiments showed that the hydrogel effectively promoted osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells, removed excess intracellular ROS, and regulated macrophage polarization to reduce inflammatory responses. In vivo experiments showed that the hydrogel promoted osteoporotic bone defect regeneration and modulated immune responses. Overall, this study confirmed that the hydrogel can treat osteoporotic bone defects by synergistically modulating bone damage microenvironment, alleviating inflammatory responses, and promoting osteogenesis; thus, it represents a promising drug delivery strategy to repair osteoporotic bone defects.

Abstract
With the advent of the aging society, osteoporosis (OP) risk increases yearly. Currently, the clinical usage of anti-OP drugs is challenged by recurrent side effects and poor patient compliance, regardless of oral, intravenous, or subcutaneous administration. Properly using a drug delivery system or formulation strategy can achieve targeted drug delivery to the bone, diminish side effects, improve bioavailability, and prolong the in vivo residence time, thus effectively curing osteoporosis. This review expounds on the pathogenesis of OP and the clinical medicaments used for OP intervention, proposes the design approach for anti-OP drug delivery, emphatically discusses emerging novel anti-OP drug delivery systems, and enumerates anti-OP preparations under clinical investigation. Our findings may contribute to engineering anti-OP drug delivery and OP-targeting therapy.

Abstract
The pore morphology design of bioceramic scaffolds plays a substantial role in the induction of bone regeneration. Specifically, the effects of different scaffold pore geometry designs on angiogenesis and new bone regeneration remain unclear. Therefore, we fabricated Mg/Sr co-doped wollastonite bioceramic (MS-CSi) scaffolds with three different pore geometries (gyroid, cylindrical, and cubic) and compared their effects on osteogenesis and angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. The MS-CSi scaffolds were fabricated by digital light processing (DLP) printing technology. The pore structure, mechanical properties, and degradation rate of the scaffolds were investigated. Cell proliferation on the scaffolds was evaluated using CCK-8 assays while angiogenesis was assessed using Transwell migration assays, tube formation assays, and immunofluorescence staining. The underlying mechanism was explored by western blotting. Osteogenic ability of scaffolds was evaluated by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, western blotting, and qRT-PCR. Subsequently, a rabbit femoral defect model was prepared to compare differences in the scaffolds in osteogenesis and angiogenesis in vivo. Cell culture experiments showed that the gyroid pore scaffold downregulated YAP/TAZ phosphorylation and enhanced YAP/TAZ nuclear translocation, thereby promoting proliferation, migration, tube formation, and high expression of CD31 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) while strut-based (cubic and cylindrical pore) scaffolds promoted osteogenic differentiation in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and upregulation of osteogenesis-related genes. The gyroid pore scaffolds were observed to facilitate early angiogenesis in the femoral-defect model rabbits while the strut-based scaffolds promoted the formation of new bone tissue. Our study indicated that the pore geometries and pore curvature characteristics of bioceramic scaffolds can be precisely tuned for enhancing both osteogenesis and angiogenesis. These results may provide new ideas for the design of bioceramic scaffolds for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is one of the most disabling consequences of aging, and osteoporotic fractures and a higher risk of subsequent fractures lead to substantial disability and deaths, indicating that both local fracture healing and early anti-osteoporosis therapy are of great significance. However, combining simple clinically approved materials to achieve good injection and subsequent molding and provide good mechanical support remains a challenge. To meet this challenge, bioinspired by natural bone components, we develop appropriate interactions between inorganic biological scaffolds and organic osteogenic molecules, achieving a tough hydrogel that is both firmly loaded with calcium phosphate cement (CPC) and injectable. Here, the inorganic component CPC composed of biomimetic bone composition and the organic precursor, incorporating gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) and N-Hydroxyethyl acrylamide (HEAA), endow the system with fast polymerization and crosslinking through ultraviolet (UV) photo-initiation. The GelMA-poly (N-Hydroxyethyl acrylamide) (GelMA-PHEAA) chemical and physical network formed in situ enhances the mechanical performances and maintains the bioactive characteristics of CPC. This tough biomimetic hydrogel combined with bioactive CPC is a new promising candidate for a commercial clinical material to help patients to survive osteoporotic fracture.

Abstract
Spatiotemporal Immune disorder is a key factor leading to the failure of bone tissue healing. It is of vital importance to accurately suppress excessive peak immune response within 24-48 h of the injury and so regulate the spatiotemporal osteoimmune disturbance of bones. In this study, Ultrasound Controlled "Explosive" (UCE) hydrogels were prepared from gelatin-hyaluronic acid methacrylate hydrogels loaded with resveratrol nanobubbles produced by double emulsification through a condensation reaction. Such materials innovatively enable ultrasound-controlled RES release for precise regulation of spatiotemporal osteoimmune disorders. Under an ultrasonic power level of 1.5 W/cm2, the rate of effectively released RES through the blast of UCE hydrogels reached 38.14 %. And compared with the control group, the in vivo inhibition of inflammation and osteogenesis effects of UCE hydrogels were more effective, respectively. As suggested by the results, the excessive local inflammatory response was inhibited by the release of resveratrol, the temporospatial disorder of bone immune was precisely regulated, and as a result, the process of bone repair was accelerated. Altogether, this study confirms that the newly created UCE Hydrogels effectively promote bone repair by intervening peak inflammation during the early phase of fracture healing.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is caused by the disruption in homeostasis between bone formation and bone resorption. Conventional management of osteoporosis involves systematic drug administration and hormonal therapy. These treatment strategies have limited curative efficacy and multiple adverse effects. Biomaterials-based therapeutic strategies have recently emerged as promising alternatives for the treatment of osteoporosis. The present review summarizes the current status of biomaterials designed for managing osteoporosis. The advantages of biomaterials-based strategies over conventional systematic drug treatment are presented. Different anti-osteoporotic delivery systems are concisely addressed. These materials include injectable hydrogels and nanoparticles, as well as anti-osteoporotic bone tissue engineering materials. Fabrication techniques such as 3D printing, electrostatic spinning and artificial intelligence are appraised in the context of how the use of these adjunctive techniques may improve treatment efficacy. The limitations of existing biomaterials are critically analyzed, together with deliberation of the future directions in biomaterials-based therapies. The latter include discussion on the use of combination strategies to enhance therapeutic efficacy in the osteoporosis niche.

The Local Release of Teriparatide Incorporated in 45S5 Bioglass Promotes a Beneficial Effect on Osteogenic Cells and Bone Repair in Calvarial Defects in Ovariectomized Rats. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:jfb14020093.

Abstract
With the increase in the population's life expectancy, there has also been an increase in the rate of osteoporosis, which has expanded the search for strategies to regenerate bone tissue. The ultrasonic sonochemical technique was chosen for the functionalization of the 45S5 bioglass. The samples after the sonochemical process were divided into (a) functionalized bioglass (BG) and (b) functionalized bioglass with 10% teriparatide (BGT). Isolated mesenchymal cells (hMSC) from femurs of ovariectomized rats were differentiated into osteoblasts and submitted to in vitro tests. Bilateral ovariectomy (OVX) and sham ovariectomy (Sham) surgeries were performed in fifty-five female Wistar rats. After a period of 60 days, critical bone defects of 5.0 mm were created in the calvaria of these animals. For biomechanical evaluation, critical bone defects of 3.0 mm were performed in the tibias of some of these rats. The groups were divided into the clot (control) group, the BG group, and the BGT group. After the sonochemical process, the samples showed modified chemical topographic and morphological characteristics, indicating that the surface was chemically altered by the functionalization of the particles. The cell environment was conducive to cell adhesion and differentiation, and the BG and BGT groups did not show cytotoxicity. In addition, the experimental groups exhibited characteristics of new bone formation with the presence of bone tissue in both periods, with the BGT group and the OVX group statistically differing from the other groups (p < 0.05) in both periods. Local treatment with the drug teriparatide in ovariectomized animals promoted positive effects on bone tissue, and longitudinal studies should be carried out to provide additional information on the biological performance of the mutual action between the bioglass and the release of the drug teriparatide.

Abstract
Objective Many observational studies have found an association between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and osteoporosis. However, it is unclear whether there is causal genetic between osteoporosis and AD. Methods A two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) study was used to investigate whether there is a causal relationship between osteoporosis and AD. Genes for osteoporosis and AD were obtained from published the genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with significant genome-wide differences (p < 5 × 10-8) and independent (r 2 < 0.001) were selected, and SNPs with F ≥ 10 were further analyzed. Inverse variance weighted (IVW) was used to assess causality, and the results were reported as odds ratios (ORs). Subsequently, heterogeneity was tested using Cochran's Q test, pleiotropy was tested using the MR-Egger intercept, and leave-one-out sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the robustness of the results. Results Using the IVW method, MR Egger method, and median-weighted method, we found that the results showed no significant causal effect of osteoporosis at different sites and at different ages on AD, regardless of the removal of potentially pleiotropic SNPs. The results were similar for the opposite direction of causality. These results were confirmed to be reliable and stable by sensitivity analysis. Conclusion This study found that there is no bidirectional causal relationship between osteoporosis and AD. However, they share similar pathogenesis and pathways.

Abstract
The significant efforts being made towards the utilization of artificial soft materials holds considerable promise for developing tissue engineering scaffolds for bone-related diseases in clinics. However, most of these biomaterials cannot simultaneously satisfy the multiple requirements of high mechanics, good compatibility, and biological osteogenesis. In this study, an osteogenic hybrid hydrogel between the amine-functionalized bioactive glass (ABG) and 4-armed poly(ethylene glycol) succinimidyl glutarate-gelatin network (SGgel) is introduced to flexibly adhere onto the defective tissue and to subsequently guide bone regeneration. Relying on the rapid ammonolysis reaction between amine groups (-NH2) of gelatin and ABG components and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS)-ester of tetra-PEG-SG polymer, the hydrogel networks were formed within seconds, offering a multifunctional performance, including easy injection, favorable biocompatibility, biological and mechanical properties (compressive strength: 4.2 MPa; storage modulus: 104 kPa; adhesive strength: 56 kPa), which could facilitate the stem cell viability, proliferation, migration and differentiation into osteocytes. In addition, the integration between the SGgel network and ABG moieties within a nano-scale level enabled the hybrid hydrogel to form adhesion to tissue, maintain the durable osteogenesis and accelerate bone regeneration. Therefore, a robust approach to the simultaneously satisfying tough adhesion onto the tissue defects and high efficiency for bone regeneration on a mouse skull was achieved, which may represent a promising strategy to design therapeutic scaffolds for tissue engineering in clinical applications.

A Degradable and Osteogenic Mg-Based MAO-MT-PLGA Drug/Ion Delivery System for Treating an Osteoporotic Fracture. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14071481. [PMID: 35890376 PMCID: PMC9320112 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14071481] [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: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 07/02/2022] [Accepted: 07/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Osteoporotic fractures are a very common bone disease that is difficult to completely cure. A large number of people worldwide suffer from pain caused by osteoporotic fractures every year, which can even cause disability and death. The compromised skeletal strength, lower density, trabecular microstructure, and bone-forming ability caused by osteoporotic fractures make them difficult to treat relative to normal fractures. An ideal scheme for osteoporotic fractures is to select internal fixation materials with matched mechanical and biological properties and carry anti-osteoporosis drugs on the plant to achieve bio-fixation and improve the condition of osteoporosis simultaneously. We designed a Mg-based MAO-MT-PLGA drug/ion delivery system (DDS) compatible with bone-like mechanical properties, degradation properties, and drug therapy. In this research, we evaluated the degradation behavior of Mg-based MAO-MT-PLGA DDS using immersion tests and electrochemical tests aided by SEM, EDS, XPS, XRD, and FT-IR. The DDS showed better corrosion resistance over Mg alloy and could release more Mg2+ due to the degradation of PLGA. According to cell viability and cell adhesion, the DDS showed better osteogenic characteristics over control group I (Mg alloy) and control group II (Mg-based MAO alloy), especially in the cells co-cultured with the leaching solution for 72 h, in which the DDS group increased to about 15% cell viability compared with group I (p < 0.05). The mRNA relative expressions, including ALP, collagen I, OCN, OPG, and Runx-2, as well as extracellular matrix calcium deposits of the DDS, are 1.5~2 times over control group I and control group II (p < 0.05), demonstrating a better ability to promote bone formation and inhibit bone resorption. After the DDS was implanted into the castrated rat model for one month, the trabeculae in the treatment group were significantly denser and stronger than those in the control group, with a difference of about 1.5 times in bone volume fraction, bone density, and the number of trabeculae, as well as the magnesium content in the bone tissue (p < 0.05). The above results demonstrated that the Mg-based MAO-MT-PLGA drug/ion delivery system is a potential treatment for osteoporotic fractures.
