[PMID: 39208498 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2024.214000] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Revised: 08/10/2024] [Accepted: 08/17/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Reasonable optimization of degradation rate, antibacterial performance and biocompatibility is crucial for the development of biodegradable zinc alloy medical implant devices with antibacterial properties. In this study, various amounts of Mg elements were incorporated into Zn5Cu alloy to modulate the degradation rate, antibacterial properties and biocompatibility. The effects of Mg contents on the microstructure, corrosion behavior, antibacterial properties and biocompatibility of Zn-5Cu-xMg alloy were extensively investigated. The results revealed that with an increase of Mg content, the amount of Mg2Zn11 phase increased and its galvanic effect with the Zn matrix was enhanced, which accelerated the corrosion process and led to higher corrosion rate and high degradation rate of the alloy. Additionally, there was an increased release of Mg2+ and Zn2+ ions from the alloy which imparted excellent resistance against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacteria and improved biocompatibility, subcutaneous antibacterial and immune microenvironment regulation properties. Zn-5Cu-2 Mg exhibited superior antibacterial ability, cell compatibility, proliferation effect, subcutaneous antibacterial and immune microenvironment regulation performances, which can work as a promising candidate of biodegradable antibacterial medical implants.

Abstract
Repair of large bone defects caused by trauma or disease poses significant clinical challenges. Extensive research has focused on metallic materials for bone repair because of their favorable mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and manufacturing processes. Traditional metallic materials, such as stainless steel and titanium alloys, are widely used in clinics. Biodegradable metallic materials, such as iron, magnesium, and zinc alloys, are promising candidates for bone repair because of their ability to degrade over time. Emerging metallic materials, such as porous tantalum and bismuth alloys, have gained attention as bone implants owing to their bone affinity and multifunctionality. However, these metallic materials encounter many practical difficulties that require urgent improvement. This article systematically reviews and analyzes the metallic materials used for bone repair, providing a comprehensive overview of their morphology, mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and in vivo implantation. Furthermore, the strategies and efforts made to address the short-comings of metallic materials are summarized. Finally, the perspectives for the development of metallic materials to guide future research and advancements in clinical practice are identified.

A drug-loaded composite coating to improve osteogenic and antibacterial properties of Zn-1Mg porous scaffolds as biodegradable bone implants. Bioact Mater 2023; 27:488-504. [PMID: 37180641 PMCID: PMC10173180 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.04.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2023] [Revised: 04/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Zinc (Zn) alloy porous scaffolds produced by additive manufacturing own customizable structures and biodegradable functions, having a great application potential for repairing bone defect. In this work, a hydroxyapatite (HA)/polydopamine (PDA) composite coating was constructed on the surface of Zn-1Mg porous scaffolds fabricated by laser powder bed fusion, and was loaded with a bioactive factor BMP2 and an antibacterial drug vancomycin. The microstructure, degradation behavior, biocompatibility, antibacterial performance and osteogenic activities were systematically investigated. Compared with as-built Zn-1Mg scaffolds, the rapid increase of Zn2+, which resulted to the deteriorated cell viability and osteogenic differentiation, was inhibited due to the physical barrier of the composite coating. In vitro cellular and bacterial assay indicated that the loaded BMP2 and vancomycin considerably enhanced the cytocompatibility and antibacterial performance. Significantly improved osteogenic and antibacterial functions were also observed according to in vivo implantation in the lateral femoral condyle of rats. The design, influence and mechanism of the composite coating were discussed accordingly. It was concluded that the additively manufactured Zn-1Mg porous scaffolds together with the composite coating could modulate biodegradable performance and contribute to effective promotion of bone recovery and antibacterial function.
