Murine iPSC-Loaded Scaffold Grafts Improve Bone Regeneration in Critical-Size Bone Defects. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:5555. [PMID: 38791592 PMCID: PMC11121928 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25105555] [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: 04/11/2024] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
In certain situations, bones do not heal completely after fracturing. One of these situations is a critical-size bone defect where the bone cannot heal spontaneously. In such a case, complex fracture treatment over a long period of time is required, which carries a relevant risk of complications. The common methods used, such as autologous and allogeneic grafts, do not always lead to successful treatment results. Current approaches to increasing bone formation to bridge the gap include the application of stem cells on the fracture side. While most studies investigated the use of mesenchymal stromal cells, less evidence exists about induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC). In this study, we investigated the potential of mouse iPSC-loaded scaffolds and decellularized scaffolds containing extracellular matrix from iPSCs for treating critical-size bone defects in a mouse model. In vitro differentiation followed by Alizarin Red staining and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction confirmed the osteogenic differentiation potential of the iPSCs lines. Subsequently, an in vivo trial using a mouse model (n = 12) for critical-size bone defect was conducted, in which a PLGA/aCaP osteoconductive scaffold was transplanted into the bone defect for 9 weeks. Three groups (each n = 4) were defined as (1) osteoconductive scaffold only (control), (2) iPSC-derived extracellular matrix seeded on a scaffold and (3) iPSC seeded on a scaffold. Micro-CT and histological analysis show that iPSCs grafted onto an osteoconductive scaffold followed by induction of osteogenic differentiation resulted in significantly higher bone volume 9 weeks after implantation than an osteoconductive scaffold alone. Transplantation of iPSC-seeded PLGA/aCaP scaffolds may improve bone regeneration in critical-size bone defects in mice.

Can strontium replace calcium in bioactive materials for dental applications? J Biomed Mater Res A 2022; 110:1892-1911.

Abstract
The substitution of calcium with strontium in bioactive materials has been promising but there has been some concern over the material instability and possible toxicity. The aim of this research was the synthesis and characterization of calcium and strontium substituted bioactive materials and assessment of interactions with local tissues and peripheral elemental migration in an animal model. A bioactive glass, hydroxyapatite and hydraulic calcium silicate with 50% or 100% calcium substitution with strontium were developed and the set materials were characterized immediately after setting and after 30 and 180-days in solution. Following subcutaneous implantation, the local (tissue histology, elemental migration) and systemic effects (elemental deposition after organ digestion) were assessed. The strontium-replaced silicate cements resulted in the synthesis of partially substituted phases and strontium leaching at all-time points. The strontium silicate implanted in the animal model could not be retrieved in over half of the specimens showing the high rate of material digestion. Tissue histology showed that all materials caused inflammation after 30 days of implantation however this subsided and angiogenesis occurred after 180 days. Strontium was not detected in the local tissues or the peripheral organs while all calcium containing materials caused calcium deposition in the kidneys. The tricalcium silicate caused elemental migration of calcium and silicon in the local tissues shown by the elemental mapping but no deposition of calcium was identified in the peripheral organs verified by the assessment of the digested tissues. Strontium can substitute calcium in bioactive materials without adverse local or systemic effects.

Nanohydroxyapatite-Protein Interface in Composite Sintered Scaffold Influences Bone Regeneration in Rabbit Ulnar Segmental Defect. JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2022; 33:36.

Abstract
The healing physiology of bone repair and remodeling that occurs after normal fracture is well orchestrated. However, it fails in complex clinical conditions and hence requires augmentation by grafts. In this study, composite nanohydroxyapatite (nHA), poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(ɛ-caprolactone) (PCL) constituted microspheres sintered three-dimensional scaffold were evaluated in rabbit ulnar segmental defect. A composite scaffold using PHB-PCL-nHA microspheres was developed with protein interface by solvent/non-solvent sintering to provide multiple cues such as biocomposition, cancellous bone equivalent meso-micro multi-scale porosity, and compressive strength. In vitro DNA quantification and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assays revealed that the protein interfaced composite scaffolds supported osteoblast proliferation and mineralization significantly higher than scaffolds without protein and TCPS (p < 0.05). Scanning electron micrographs of osteoblasts cultured scaffolds demonstrated cell-matrix interaction, cell spreading, colonization and filopodial extension across the porous voids. Cylindrical scaffolds (5 × 10 mm) were implanted following segmental defect (10 mm) in rabbit ulnar bone and compared with untreated control. Radiography (4, 8 and 12 weeks) and µ-computed tomography (12 weeks) analysis showed directional bone tissue formation by bridging defective site in both scaffolds with and without protein interface. Whereas, undesired sclerotic-like tissue formation was observed in control groups from 8 weeks. Histology by hot Stevenel's blue and van Gieson's picrofuchsin staining has confirmed enhanced bone maturation in scaffold groups while presence of osteoids was observed in control after 12 weeks. Thus, the developed composite matrices exhibits osteoinductive, osteoconductive properties and demonstrates its bone regenerative potential owing to its compositional, micro & macro structural and mechanical properties.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease with a proinflammatory microenvironment, causing poor vascularization and bone regeneration. Due to the lack of effective therapy and one-sided focus on the direct angiogenic properties of biomaterials and osteogenesis stimulation, the treatment of diabetic bone defect remains challenging and complex. In this study, using gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) as a template, a lithium (Li) -modified bioglass-hydrogel for diabetic bone regeneration is developed. It exhibits a sustained ion release for better bone regeneration under diabetic microenvironment. The hydrogel is shown to be mechanically adaptable to the complex shape of the defect. In vitro, Li-modified bioglass-hydrogel promoted cell proliferation, direct osteogenesis, and regulated macrophages in high glucose (HG) microenvironment, with the secretion of bone morphogenetic protein-2 and vascular endothelial growth factor to stimulate osteogenesis and neovascularization indirectly. In vivo, composite hydrogels containing GelMA and Li-MBG (GM/M-Li) release Li ions to relieve inflammation, providing an anti-inflammatory microenvironment for osteogenesis and angiogenesis. Applying Li-modified bioglass-hydrogel, significantly enhances bone regeneration in a diabetic rat bone defect. Together, both remarkable in vitro and in vivo outcomes in this study present an opportunity for diabetic bone regeneration on the basis of HG microenvironment.

Abstract
Throughout her impressive scientific career, Prof. María Vallet-Regí opened various research lines aimed at designing new bioceramics, including mesoporous bioactive glasses for bone tissue engineering applications. These bioactive glasses can be considered a spin-off of silica mesoporous materials because they are designed with a similar technical approach. Mesoporous glasses in addition to SiO2 contain significant amounts of other oxides, particularly CaO and P2O5 and therefore, they exhibit quite different properties and clinical applications than mesoporous silica compounds. Both materials exhibit ordered mesoporous structures with a very narrow pore size distribution that are achieved by using surfactants during their synthesis. The characteristics of mesoporous glasses made them suitable to be enriched with various osteogenic agents, namely inorganic ions and biopeptides as well as mesenchymal cells. In the present review, we summarize the evolution of mesoporous bioactive glasses research for bone repair, with a special highlight on the impact of Prof. María Vallet-Regí´s contribution to the field.

Abstract
Repair of defective hard-tissues in osteoporotic patients faces significantly challenges with limited therapeutic options. Although biomedical cements are considered promising materials for healthy bone repair, their uses for healing osteoporotic fracture are clinically limited. Herein, strontium-releasing-nanoscale cement was introduced to provide dual therapeutic-actions (pro-osteogenesis and anti-osteoclastogenesis), eventually for the regeneration of osteoporotic bone defect. The Sr-nanocement hardened from the Sr-doped nanoscale-glass particles was shown to release multiple ions including silicate, calcium and strontium at doses therapeutically relevant over time. When the Sr-nanocement was treated to pre-osteoblastic cells, the osteogenic mRNA level (Runx2, Opn, Bsp, Ocn), alkaline phosphatase activity, calcium deposition, and target luciferase reporter were stimulated with respect to the case with Sr-free-nanocement. When treated to pre-osteoclastic cells, the Sr-nanocement substantially reduced the osteoclastogenesis, such as osteoclastic mRNA level (Casr, Nfatc1, c-fos, Acp, Ctsk, Mmp-9), tartrate-resistant acid trap activity, and bone resorption capacity. In particular, the osteoclastic inhibition resulted in part from the interactive effect of osteoblasts which were activated by the Sr-nanocement, i.e., blockage of RANKL (receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand) binding by enhanced osteoprotegerin and the deactivated Nfatc1. The Sr-nanocement, administered to an ovariectomized tibia defect (osteoporotic model) in rats, exhibited profound bone regenerative potential in cortical and surrounding trabecular area, including increased bone volume and density, enhanced production of osteopromotive proteins, and more populated osteoblasts, together with reduced signs of osteoclastic bone resorption. These results demonstrate that Sr-nanocement, with its dual effects of osteoclastic inhibition and osteogenic-stimulation, can be considered an effective nanotherapeutic implantable biomaterial platform for the treatment of osteoporotic bone defects.

The Influence of Strontium on Bone Tissue Metabolism and Its Application in Osteoporosis Treatment. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22126564.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a chronic disease characterized by low bone mass caused by increased bone turnover and impaired bone microarchitecture. In treatment, we use antiresorptive or anabolic drugs, which usually have a unidirectional effect, i.e., they inhibit the activity of osteoclasts or stimulate the effect of osteoblasts. Strontium ranelate is an anti-osteoporosis drug with a unique mechanism of action (used primarily in postmenopausal women). Unlike other medicines, it has a multidirectional effect on bone tissue, intensifying osteoblastogenesis while inhibiting osteoclastogenesis. It turns out that this effect is demonstrated by strontium ions, an element showing physical and chemical similarity to calcium, the basic element that builds the mineral fraction of bone. As a result, strontium acts through the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) receptor in bone tissue cells. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in interest in the introduction of strontium ions in place of calcium ions in ceramics used as bone replacement materials for the treatment of bone fractures and defects caused by osteoporosis. The aim of this study was to summarize current knowledge about the role of strontium in the treatment of osteoporosis, its effects (in various forms), and the ways in which it is administered.

Abstract
Three different inorganic scaffolds were obtained starting from the oxide system SiO2‒P2O5‒CaO‒MgO, to which Ce4+/Sm3+/Sr2+ cations were added in order to propose novel materials with potential application in the field of hard tissue engineering. Knowing the beneficial effects of each element, improved features in terms of mechanical properties, antibacterial activity and cellular response are expected. The compositions were processed in the form of scaffolds by a common sol-gel method, followed by a thermal treatment at 1000 and 1200 °C. The obtained samples were characterized from thermal, compositional, morphological and mechanical point of view. It was shown that each supplementary component triggers the modification of the crystalline phase composition, as well as microstructural details. Moreover, the shrinkage behavior is well correlated with the attained compression strength values. Sm was proven to be the best choice, since in addition to a superior mechanical resistance, a clear beneficial influence on the viability of 3T3 fibroblast cell line was observed.

Magnesium-alloy rods reinforced bioglass bone cement composite scaffolds with cortical bone-matching mechanical properties and excellent osteoconductivity for load-bearing bone in vivo regeneration. Sci Rep 2020; 10:18193. [PMID: 33097806 PMCID: PMC7585427 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-75328-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2020] [Accepted: 10/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Various therapeutic platforms have been developed for repairing bone defects. However, scaffolds possess both cortical bone-matching mechanical properties and excellent osteoconductivity for load-bearing bone defects repair is still challenging in the clinic. In this study, inspired by the structure of the ferroconcrete, a high-strength bifunctional scaffold has been developed by combining surface-modified magnesium alloy as the internal load-bearing skeleton and bioglass-magnesium phosphate bone cement as the osteoconductive matrix. The scaffold combines the high mechanical strength and controllable biodegradability of surface-modified magnesium alloy with the excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity of bioglass-magnesium phosphate bone cement, thus providing support for load-bearing bone defects and subsequently bone regeneration. The scaffolds generate hydroxyapatite (HA) during the degrading in simulated body fluid (SBF), with the strength of the scaffold decreasing from 180 to 100 MPa in 6 weeks, which is still sufficient for load-bearing bone. Moreover, the scaffolds showed excellent osteoconductivity in vitro and in vivo. In a New Zealand White Rabbit radius defect model, the scaffolds degrade gradually and are replaced by highly matured new bone tissues, as assessed by image-based analyses (X-ray and Micro-CT) and histological analyses. The bone formation-related proteins such as BMP2, COL1a1 and OCN, all showed increased expression.

Abstract
Among conventional fabrication techniques, freeze‐drying process has widely been investigated for polymeric implants. However, the understanding of the stem cell progenitor‐dependent cell functionality modulation and quantitative analysis of early osseointegration of highly porous scaffolds have not been explored. Here, we developed a novel, highly porous, multimaterial composite, chitosan/hydroxyapatite/polycaprolactone (CHT/HA/PCL). The in vitro studies have been performed using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from three tissue sources: human bone marrow‐derived MSCs (BM‐MSCs), adipose‐derived MSCs (AD‐MSCs), and Wharton's jelly‐derived MSCs (WJ‐MSCs). Although cell attachment and metabolic activity [3‐4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2yl‐(2,5 diphenyl‐2H‐tetrazoliumbromide) assay] were ore enhanced in WJ‐MSC‐laden CHT/HA/PCL composites, scanning electron microscopy, real‐time gene expression (alkaline phosphatase [ALP], collagen type I [Col I], osteocalcin [OCN], and bone morphogenetic protein 4 [BMP‐4]), and immunostaining (COL I, β‐CATENIN, OCN, and SCLEROSTIN [SOST]) demonstrated pronounced osteogenesis with terminal differentiation on BM‐MSC‐laden CHT/HA/PCL composites only. The enhanced cell functionality on CHT/HA/PCL composites was explained in terms of interplay among the surface properties and the optimal source of MSCs. In addition, osteogenesis in rat tibial model over 6 weeks confirmed a better ratio of bone volume to the total volume for BM‐MSC‐laden composites over scaffold‐only and defect‐only groups. The clinically conformant combination of 3D porous architecture with pore sizes varying in the range of 20 to 200 μm together with controlled in vitro degradation and early osseointegration establish the potential of CHT/HA/PCL composite as a potential cancellous bone analog.

Abstract
Selective laser melting (SLM) titanium alloys require surface modification to achieve early bone-bonding. This study investigated the effects of solution and heat treatment to induce the sustained release of strontium (Sr) ions from SLM Ti6Al4V implants (Sr-S64). The results were compared with a control group comprising an untreated surface [SLM pure titanium (STi) and SLM Ti6Al4V (S64)] and a treated surface to induce the release of calcium (Ca) ions from SLM Ti6Al4V (Ca-S64). The surface-treated materials showed homogenous nanoscale network formation on the original micro-topographical surface and formed bone-like apatite on the surface in a simulated body fluid within 3 days. In vitro evaluation using MC3T3-E1 cells showed that the cells were viable on Sr-S64 surface, and Sr-S64 enhanced cell adhesion-related and osteogenic differentiation-related genes expression. In vivo rabbit tibia model, Sr-S64 provided significantly greater bone-bonding strength and bone-implant contact area than those in controls (STi and S64) in the early phase (2-4 weeks) after implantation; however, there was no statistical difference between Ca-S64 and controls. In conclusion, Sr solution and heat treatment was a safe and effective method to enhance early bone-bonding ability of S-64 by improving the surface characteristics and sustained delivery for Sr.

Abstract
In the current study, Sr/Fe co-substituted hydroxyapatite (HAp) bioceramics were prepared by the sonication-assisted aqueous chemical precipitation method followed by sintering at 1100 °C for bone tissue regeneration applications. The sintered bioceramics were analyzed for various structural and chemical properties through X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, which confirmed the phase purity of HAp and Sr/Fe co-substitution into its lattice. The Vickers hardness measurement, high blood compatibility (less than 5% hemolysis), and ability to support the adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells suggest the suitability of Sr/Fe:HAp bioceramics for bone implant applications. The physicochemical analysis revealed that the developed Sr/Fe:HAp bioceramics exhibited a polyphasic nature (HAp and βTCP) with almost identical structural morphology having a particle size less than 0.8 μm. The dielectric constant (ε') and dielectric loss (ε″) were potentially affected by the incorporated foreign ions together with the polyphasic nature of the material. The Sr/Fe co-substituted samples demonstrated extended drug (5-fluorouracil and amoxicillin) release profiles at the pH of physiological medium. The multifunctional properties of the developed HAp bioceramics enabled them to be an auspicious candidate for potential biomedical applications, including targeted drug-delivery applications, heating mediator in hyperthermia, and bone tissue repair implants.

Abstract
The fabrication and application of bioactive hydroxyapatite has always been a research hot spot in the fields of orthopaedics. Now it is common to use calcium (Ca) salt as Ca2+ source to synthesise hydroxyapatite. And egg shell could be another promising raw material as Ca2+ source, which is not only economical but also biogenic. In this study, egg shell (ES)-hydroxyapatite was prepared by using egg shells via hydrothermal method. Furthermore, ES-Sr hydroxyapatite was synthesized by incorporation of bioactive element strontium (Sr2+) into ES-hydroxyapatite. The in vitro experiment showed that compared with hydroxyapatite, ES-hydroxyapatite showed better biological performances, which could be attributed to the trace elements in egg shell, such as magnesium (Mg). And the incorporation of Sr2+ could further enhance the bioactivity. These results indicated that apatite with high biological activity, which had great application prospects in orthopedics, could be produced by egg shells and the incorporation of Sr2+.

Abstract
It is not clear whether surface bioactive chemistry plays an important role in the early osseointegration of micro-structured titanium implants that have the same surface topography at the micrometer and submicrometer scales. In this study, magnetron sputtering methodology was employed for the preparation of Sr coating on sandblasted and acid-etched (SLA) titanium implant without changing the surface characteristics. The study of the surface morphology of the coating was carried out with the use of scanning electron microscopy, and the chemical composition of the surface was examined by X-ray energy-dispersive spectrometry. Twenty SLA implants together with 20 Sr-SLA implants were randomly inserted into the proximal tibia of 20 rats. The early osseointegration of the Sr-SLA implant was compared with SLA implant by removal torque test and histological analysis following two and eight weeks of implantation, correspondingly. As revealed by the surface characteristics, both Sr-SLA and SLA surfaces exhibited similar typical isotropic irregular indentations. The strontium ions were effectively incorporated into the SLA surface (the atomic ratio is 2%). Following two and eight weeks of healing, significant increases in removal torque values ( p < 0.05) were taken into observation in respect of Sr-SLA implant. Histologically, the Sr-SLA implants displayed significantly higher bone-to-implant contact percentages and bone area ratio in comparison with the SLA implant at eight weeks ( p < 0.05). At two weeks, the bone-implant contact percentages, together with bone area ratio of Sr-SLA surface appeared to be a little bit slightly greater than that of SLA surface. But the statistical difference was not significant. These results indicated that the chemical modification with Sr incorporated by magnetron sputtering treatment in moderately rough surfaced implants remarkably increases early bone apposition.

Abstract
Strontium releasing bioactive ceramics constitute an important class of biomaterials for osteoporosis treatment. In the present study, we evaluated the synthesis, phase assemblage, and magnetic properties of strontium hexaferrite, SrFe12O19, (SrFe) nanoparticles. On the biocompatibility front, the size- and dose-dependent cytotoxicity of SrFe against human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were investigated. After establishing their non-toxic nature, we used the strontium hexaferrite nanoparticles (SrFeNPs) in varying amount (x = 0, 10, and 20 wt %) to consolidate bioactive composites with hydroxyapatite (HA) by multi-stage spark plasma sintering (SPS). Rietveld refinement of these spark plasma sintered composites revealed a near complete decomposition of SrFe12O19 to magnetite (Fe3O4) along with a marked increase in the unit cell volume of HA, commensurate with strontium-doped HA. The cytocompatibility of SrHA-Fe composites with hMSCs was assessed using qualitative and quantitative morphological analysis along with phenotypic and genotypic expression for stem cell differentiation. A marked decrease in the stemness of hMSCs, indicated by reduced vimentin expression and acquisition of osteogenic phenotype, evinced by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and collagen deposition was recorded on SrHA-Fe composites in osteoinductive culture. A significant upregulation of osteogenic marker genes (Runx2, ALP and OPN) was detected in case of the SrHA-Fe composites, whereas OCN and Col IA expression were similarly high for baseline HA. However, matrix mineralization was elevated on SrHA-Fe composites in commensurate with the release of Sr2+ and Fe2+. Summarizing, the current work is the first report of strontium hexaferrite as a non-toxic nanobiomaterial. Also, SrHA-based iron oxide composites can potentially better facilitate bone formation, when compared to pristine HA.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of mesoporous bioglass (MBG) dissolution on the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) derived from either sham control or ovariectomized (OVX) rats. MBG was fabricated by evaporation-induced self-assembly method. Cell proliferation was tested by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, and cytoskeletal morphology was observed by fluorescence microscopy. Osteogenic differentiation was evaluated by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and activity, Alizarin Red staining, while adipogenic differentiation was assessed by Oil Red-O staining. Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot analysis were taken to evaluate the expression of runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ). We found that MBG dissolution (0, 25, 50, 100, 200 µg/mL) was nontoxic to BMSCs growth. Sham and OVX BMSCs exhibited the highest ALP activity in 50 µg/mL of MBG osteogenic dissolution, except that sham BMSCs in 100 µg/mL showed the highest ALP activity on day 14. Runx2 was significantly upregulated after 100 µg/mL of MBG stimulation in sham and OVX BMSCs for 7 and 14 days, except that 25 µg/mL showed highest upregulation effect on OVX BMSCs at day 7. PPARγ was downregulated after MBG stimulation. The protein level of Runx2 from the sham BMSCs group was significantly upregulated after lower doses (25 and 50 µg/mL) of MBG stimulation, whereas PPARγ was downregulated in the sham and OVX BMSCs group. Thus, both the osteogenic and adipogenic abilities of BMSCs were damaged under OVX condition. Moreover, lower concentration of MBG dissolution can promote osteogenesis but inhibit adipogenesis of the sham and OVX BMSCs. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Effects of strontium and lithium ion doping on the biological properties of bioactive glass (BAG) porous scaffolds have been checked in vitro and in vivo. BAG scaffolds were prepared by conventional glass melting route and subsequently, scaffolds were produced by evaporation of fugitive pore formers. After thorough physico-chemical and in vitro cell characterization, scaffolds were used for pre-clinical study. Soft and hard tissue formation in a rabbit femoral defect model after 2 and 4 months, were assessed using different tools. Histological observations showed excellent osseous tissue formation in Sr and Li + Sr scaffolds and moderate bone regeneration in Li scaffolds. Fluorochrome labeling studies showed wide regions of new bone formation in Sr and Li + Sr doped samples as compared to Li doped samples. SEM revealed abundant collagenous network and minimal or no interfacial gap between bone and implant in Sr and Li + Sr doped samples compared to Li doped samples. Micro CT of Li + Sr samples showed highest degree of peripheral cancellous tissue formation on periphery and cortical tissues inside implanted samples and vascularity among four compositions. Our findings suggest that addition of Sr and/or Li alters physico-chemical properties of BAG and promotes early stage in vivo osseointegration and bone remodeling that may offer new insight in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Implant-associated infection and poor osseointegration remains a major clinical challenge in Ti-based implant materials. A versatile strategy to endow Ti-based implants with long-term antibacterial ability as well as better osteogenic activity is highly desirable for high quality implantation. Strontium (Sr) has been shown to be a significant element to favor bone growth by promoting new bone formation and inhibiting bone resorption. In this study, a novel duplex-treatment technique encompassing magnetron sputtering with micro-arc oxidation is utilized to fabricate porous Sr/Ag-containing TiO2 coatings loaded with different concentrations of Ag and Sr. All coatings are porous with pore size less than 5 µm. Ag is primarily distributed homogeneously inside the pores, and the concentrations of Ag in Sr/Ag-containing TiO2 coatings with low and high Ag contents are 0.40 at.% and 0.83 at.% respectively. We have demonstrated that this kind of coating displays long-lasting antibacterial ability even up to 28 d due to the incorporation of Ag. Further, Sr/Ag-containing TiO2 coatings with optimum Ag and Sr contents revealed good cytocompatibility, enhanced osteoblast spreading and osseointegration, which stemmed primarily from the synergistic effect exerted by the porous surface topography and the bioactive element Sr. However, this study has also identified, for the first time, that proper addition of Ag would further facilitate osteogenic effects. Besides, Sr may be able to alleviate the potential cytotoxic effect of excessive Ag. Thus, integration of optimum functional elements Ag and Sr into Ti-based implant materials would be expected to expedite osseointegration while simultaneously sustaining long-term antibacterial activity, which would provide new insights for relevant fundamental investigations and biomedical applications.

Abstract
Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, possess high proliferation and differentiation ability, are now considered an attractive option for osteogenic differentiation and bone regeneration. In fact, recent discoveries have demonstrated that iPS cells can be differentiated into osteoblasts, suggesting that iPS cells have the potential to advance future bone regenerative therapies. Herein, we provide an overview of the recent findings on osteogenic characteristics and differentiation potential of iPS cells. In addition, we discuss current methods for inducing their specification towards osteogenic phenotype as well as in vivo evidence supporting the therapeutic benefit of iPS-derived osteoblasts. Finally, we describe recent findings regarding the use of iPS-derived cells for osteogenic differentiation and bone regeneration, which have indicated that these pluripotent cells represent an ideal tool for regenerative cell therapies and might contribute to the development of future bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The incorporation of bioinorganics into synthetic biomaterials is a promising approach to improve the biological performance of bone graft substitutes, while still retaining their synthetic nature. Among these bioinorganics, strontium ions (Sr(2+) ) have reported enhanced bone formation, and a reduced risk of bone fractures. While previous results have been encouraging, more detailed studies are needed to further develop specific applications. This study demonstrates the effects of Sr(2+) on the osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs) when introduced as either a dissolved salt, or incorporated into biomimetic calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings. Upon attachment, hMSCs seeded in the presence of higher Sr(2+) concentrations presented with a more elongated shape as compared to the controls without Sr(2+) . Both Sr(2+) as a dissolved salt in the medium, or incorporated into CaP coatings, positively influenced hMSC alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in a dose-dependent manner. At the mRNA level, the expression of osteogenic markers ALP, bone sialoprotein, bone morphogenetic protein 2, osteopontin, and osteoclacin were increased in the presence of Sr(2+) , independent of the delivery method. Overall, this study demonstrates the positive effects of strontium on the osteogenic differentiation of human MSCs, and supports the use of strontium-incorporated CaPs for bone regeneration applications. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Acta Biomater 2016; 31:401-411.

Abstract
Strontium ions (Sr(2+)) are known to prevent osteoporosis and also encourage bone formation. Such twin requirements have motivated researchers to develop Sr-substituted biomaterials for orthopaedic applications. The present study demonstrates a new concept of developing Sr-substituted Mg3(PO4)2 - based biodegradable scaffolds. In particular, this work reports the fabrication, mechanical properties with an emphasis on strength reliability as well as in vitro degradation of highly biodegradable strontium-incorporated magnesium phosphate cements. These implantable scaffolds were fabricated using three-dimensional powder printing, followed by high temperature sintering and/or chemical conversion, a technique adaptable to develop patient-specific implants. A moderate combination of strength properties of 36.7MPa (compression), 24.2MPa (bending) and 10.7MPa (tension) were measured. A reasonably modest Weibull modulus of up to 8.8 was recorded after uniaxial compression or diametral tensile tests on 3D printed scaffolds. A comparison among scaffolds with varying compositions or among sintered or chemically hardened scaffolds reveals that the strength reliability is not compromised in Sr-substituted scaffolds compared to baseline Mg3(PO4)2. The micro-computed tomography analysis reveals the presence of highly interconnected porous architecture in three-dimension with lognormal pore size distribution having median in the range of 17.74-26.29μm for the investigated scaffolds. The results of extensive in vitro ion release study revealed passive degradation with a reduced Mg(2+) release and slow but sustained release of Sr(2+) from strontium-substituted magnesium phosphate scaffolds. Taken together, the present study unequivocally illustrates that the newly designed Sr-substituted magnesium phosphate scaffolds with good strength reliability could be used for biomedical applications requiring consistent Sr(2+)- release, while the scaffold degrades in physiological medium. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The study investigates the additive manufacturing of scaffolds based on different strontium-substituted magnesium phosphate bone cements by means of three-dimensional powder printing technique (3DPP). Magnesium phosphates were chosen due to their higher biodegradability compared to calcium phosphates, which is due to both a higher solubility as well as the absence of phase changes (to low soluble hydroxyapatite) in vivo. Since strontium ions are known to promote bone formation by stimulating osteoblast growth, we aimed to establish such a highly degradable magnesium phosphate ceramic with an enhanced bioactivity for new bone ingrowth. After post-processing, mechanical strengths of up to 36.7MPa (compression), 24.2MPa (bending) and 10.7MPa (tension) could be achieved. Simultaneously, the failure reliability of those bioceramic implant materials, measured by Weibull modulus calculations, were in the range of 4.3-8.8. Passive dissolution studies in vitro proved an ion release of Mg(2+) and PO4(3-) as well as Sr(2+), which is fundamental for in vivo degradation and a bone growth promoting effect. In our opinion, this work broadens the range of bioceramic bone replacement materials suitable for additive manufacturing processing. The high biodegradability of MPC ceramics together with the anticipated promoting effect on osseointegration opens up the way for a patient-specific treatment with the prospect of a fast and complete healing of bone fractures.

Abstract
Bone is a unique organ composed of mineralized hard tissue, unlike any other body part. The unique manner in which bone can constantly undergo self-remodeling has created interesting clinical approaches to the healing of damaged bone. Healing of large bone defects is achieved using implant materials that gradually integrate with the body after healing is completed. Such strategies require a multidisciplinary approach by material scientists, biological scientists, and clinicians. Development of materials for bone healing and exploration of the interactions thereof with the body are active research areas. In this review, we explore ongoing developments in the creation of materials for regenerating hard tissues.

Abstract
Fragility fractures can cause significant morbidity and mortality in patients with osteoporosis and inflict a considerable medical and socioeconomic burden. Moreover, treatment of an osteoporotic fracture is challenging due to the decreased strength of the surrounding bone and suboptimal healing capacity, predisposing both to fixation failure and non-union. Whereas a systemic osteoporosis treatment acts slowly, local release of osteogenic agents in osteoporotic fracture would act rapidly to increase bone strength and quality, as well as to reduce the bone healing period and prevent development of a problematic non-union. The identification of agents with potential to stimulate bone formation and improve implant fixation strength in osteoporotic bone has raised hope for the fast augmentation of osteoporotic fractures. Stimulation of bone formation by local delivery of growth factors is an approach already in clinical use for the treatment of non-unions, and could be utilized for osteoporotic fractures as well. Small molecules have also gained ground as stable and inexpensive compounds to enhance bone formation and tackle osteoporosis. The aim of this paper is to present the state of the art on local drug delivery in osteoporotic fractures. Advantages, disadvantages and underlying molecular mechanisms of different active species for local bone healing in osteoporotic bone are discussed. This review also identifies promising new candidate molecules and innovative approaches for the local drug delivery in osteoporotic bone.

Abstract
One of the desired properties for any new biomaterial composition is its long-term stability in a suitable animal model and such property cannot be appropriately assessed by performing short-term implantation studies. While hydroxyapatite (HA) or bioglass coated metallic biomaterials are being investigated for in vivo biocompatibility properties, such study is not extensively being pursued for bulk glass ceramics. In view of their inherent brittle nature, the implant stability as well as impact of long-term release of metallic ions on bone regeneration have been a major concern. In this perspective, the present article reports the results of the in vivo implantation experiments carried out using 100% strontium (Sr)-substituted glass ceramics with the nominal composition of 4.5 SiO2 -3Al2 O3 -1.5P2 O5 -3SrO-2SrF2 for 26 weeks in cylindrical bone defects in rabbit model. The combination of histological and micro-computed tomography analysis provided a qualitative and quantitative understanding of the bone regeneration around the glass ceramic implants in comparison to the highly bioactive HA bioglass implants (control). The sequential polychrome labeling of bone during in vivo osseointegration using three fluorochromes followed by fluorescence microscopy observation confirmed homogeneous bone formation around the test implants. The results of the present study unequivocally confirm the long-term implant stability as well as osteoconductive property of 100% Sr-substituted glass ceramics, which is comparable to that of a known bioactive implant, that is, HA-based bioglass.

Abstract
Age-related bone loss and osteoporosis are associated with bone remodeling changes that are featured with decreased trabecular and periosteal bone formation relative to bone resorption. Current anticatabolic therapies focusing on the inhibition of bone resorption may not be sufficient in the prevention or reversal of age-related bone deterioration and there is a big need in promoting osteoblastogenesis and bone formation. Enhanced understanding of the network formed by key signaling pathways and molecules regulating bone forming cells in health and diseases has therefore become highly significant. The successful development of agonist/antagonist of the PTH and Wnt signaling pathways are profits of the understanding of these key pathways. As the core component of an approved antiosteoporosis agent, strontium takes its effect on osteoblasts at multilevel through multiple pathways, representing a good example in revealing and exploring anabolic mechanisms. The recognition of strontium effects on bone has led to its expected application in a variety of biomaterial scaffolds used in tissue engineering strategies aiming at bone repairing and regeneration. While summarizing the recent progress in these respects, this review also proposes the new approaches such as systems biology in order to reveal new insights in the pathology of osteoporosis as well as possible discovery of new therapies.
