Abstract
Mg is a typical biodegradable metal widely used for biomedical applications due to its considerable mechanical properties and bioactivity. Biodegradable polymers have attracted great interest owing to their favorable processability and inclusiveness. However, it is challenging for the degradation rates of Mg or polymers to precisely match tissue repair processes, and the significant changes in local pH during degradation hinder tissue repair. The concept of combining Mg with polymers is proposed to overcome the shortcomings of materials, aiming to meet repair needs from various aspects such as mechanics and biology. Therefore, it is essential to systematically understand the behavior of biodegradable Mg/polymer composite (BMPC) from the design, manufacturing, mechanical properties, degradation, and biological effects. In this review, we elaborate on the design concepts and manufacturing strategies of high-strength BMPC, the "structure-function" relationship between the microstructures and mechanical properties of composites, the variation in the degradation rate due to endogenous and exogenous factors, and the establishment of advanced degradation research platform. Additionally, the interplay among composite components during degradation and the biological function of composites under non-responsive/stimuli-responsive platforms are also discussed. Finally, we hope that this review will benefit future clinical applications of "structure-function" integrated biomaterials.

Abstract
Implant surface modification can improve osseointegration and reduce peri-implant inflammation. Implant surfaces are modified with metals because of their excellent mechanical properties and significant functions. Metal surface modification is divided into metal ions and nanoparticle surface modification. These two methods function by adding a finishing metal to the surface of the implant, and both play a role in promoting osteogenic, angiogenic, and antibacterial properties. Based on this, the nanostructural surface changes confer stronger antibacterial and cellular affinity to the implant surface. The current paper reviews the forms, mechanisms, and applications of nanoparticles and metal ion modifications to provide a foundation for the surface modification of implants.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) plays an important role in controlling bone apatite structure and density and is a potential bioactive material in repairing critical-sized bone defects. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of adding NanoMgO to polycaprolactone/beta-tricalcium phosphate (PCL/β-TCP) scaffolds on bone regeneration. Novel 3D-printed porous PCL/β-TCP composite scaffolds containing 10% nanoMgO were fabricated by fused deposition modeling (FDM) and compared with PCL/β-TCP (1:1) scaffolds (control). The morphology and physicochemical properties of the scaffolds were characterized by ATR-FTIR, XRD, scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX), transmission-electron-microscopy (TEM), water contact angle, and compressive strength tests and correlated to its cytocompatibility and osteogenic capacity in-vitro. To evaluate in-vivo osteogenic capacity, bone-marrow-derived stem cell (BMSC)-loaded scaffolds were implanted into 8 mm rat critical-sized calvarial defects for 12 weeks. The hydrophilic scaffolds showed 50% porosity (pore size = 504 μm). MgO nanoparticles (91.5 ± 27.6 nm) were homogenously dispersed and did not adversely affect BMSCs' viability and differentiation. Magnesium significantly increased elastic modulus, pH, and degradation. New bone formation (NBF) in Micro-CT was 30.16 ± 0.31% and 23.56 ± 1.76% in PCL/β-TCP/nanoMgO scaffolds with and without BMSCs respectively, and 19.38 ± 2.15% and 15.75 ± 2.24% in PCL/β-TCP scaffolds with and without BMSCs respectively. Angiogenesis was least remarkable in PCL/β-TCP compared with other groups (p < .05). Our results suggest that the PCL/β-TCP/nanoMgO scaffold is a more suitable bone substitute compared to PCL/β-TCP in critical-sized calvarial defects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Magnesium (Mg) enhances the bone regeneration, mineralization and attachment at the tissue/biomaterial interface. OBJECTIVE In this study, the effect of Mg on mineralization/osseointegration was determined using (Ti,Mg)N thin film coated Ti6Al4V based plates and screws in vivo. METHODS TiN and (Ti,Mg)N coated Ti6Al4V plates and screws were prepared using arc-PVD technique and used to fix rabbit femur fractures for 6 weeks. Then, mineralization/osseointegration was assessed by surface analysis including cell attachment, mineralization, and hydroxyapatite deposition on concave and convex sides of the plates along with the attachment between the screw and the bone. RESULTS According to Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) analyses; cell attachment and mineralization were higher on the concave sides of the plates from both groups in comparison to the convex sides. However, mineralization was significantly higher on Mg-containing ones. The mean gray value indicating mineralized area after von Kossa staining was found as 0.48 ± 0.01 and 0.41 ± 0.04 on Mg containing and free ones respectively. Similarly, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses showed that hydroxyapatite growth was abundant on the Mg-containing and concave sides of the plates. Enhanced mineralization and strong attachment to bone were also detected in EDS and SEM analyses of Mg-containing screws. CONCLUSION These findings indicated that (Ti,Mg)N coatings can be used to increase attachment at the implant tissue interface due to accelerated mineralization, cell attachment, and hydroxyapatite growth.

Abstract
Calcium and magnesium are two elements essential for bone structure and metabolism. However, their synergistic or competitive effects on bone regeneration are often overlooked during biomaterial development. We examined the interactions between Ca and Mg in sol-gel coatings doped with mixtures of CaCl2 (0.5%) and MgCl2 (0.5, 1, and 1.5%). After physicochemical characterisation, the materials were incubated in vitro with MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cells and RAW264.7 macrophages, and the protein adsorption was analysed using nLC-MS/MS. The incorporation of the ions did not lead to the formation of crystalline structures and did not affect the sol-gel network cross-linking. The release of the ions did not cause cytotoxic effects at any tested concentration. The proteomic analysis showed that adding the Ca and Mg ions elevated the adsorption of proteins associated with inflammatory response regulation (e.g., ALBU, CLUS, HPT, HPTR, A1AG1 and A1AG2) but decreased the adsorption of immunoglobulins. The CaMg coatings had reduced affinity to proteins associated with coagulation (e.g., FA9, FA10, FA11, FA12) but increased the adsorption of proteins involved in cell adhesion (DSG1, DESP, FBLN1, ZA2G). In vitro assays revealed that the cellular response was affected by changing the concentration of Mg. Moreover, our results show that these differences reflect the changes in the concentrations of both ions in the mix but are not a simple additive effect.

Abstract
Owing to their excellent biocompatibility and corrosion-resistant properties, titanium (Ti) (and its alloy) are essential artificial substitute biomaterials for orthopedics. However, flaws, such as weak osteogenic induction ability and higher Young's modulus, have been observed during clinical application. As a result, short- and long-term postoperative follow-up has found that several complications have occurred. For decades, scientists have exerted efforts to compensate for these deficiencies. Different modification methods have been investigated, including changing alloy contents, surface structure transformation, three-dimensional (3D) structure transformation, coating, and surface functionalization technologies. The cell-surface interaction effect and imitation of the natural 3D bone structure are the two main mechanisms of these improved methods. In recent years, significant progress has been made in materials science research methods, including thorough research of titanium alloys of different compositions, precise surface pattern control technology, controllable 3D structure construction technology, improvement of coating technologies, and novel concepts of surface functionalization. These improvements facilitate the possibility for further research in the field of bone tissue engineering. Although the underlying mechanism is still not fully understood, these studies still have some implications for clinical practice. Therefore, for the direction of further research, it is beneficial to summarize these studies according to the basal method used. This literature review aimed to classify these technologies, thereby providing beginners with a preliminary understanding of the field.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) is an important element for its enhanced osteogenic and angiogenic properties in vitro and in vivo, however, the inherent alkalinity is the adverse factor that needs further attention. In order to study the role of alkalinity in regulating osteogenesis and angiogenesis in vitro, magnesium-silicocarnotite [Mg-Ca5(PO4)2SiO4, Mg-CPS] was designed and fabricated. In this study, Mg-CPS showed better osteogenic and angiogenic properties than CPS within 10 wt.% magnesium oxide (MgO), since the adversity of alkaline condition was covered by the benefits of improved Mg ion concentrations through activating Smad2/3-Runx2 signaling pathway in MC3T3-E1 cells and PI3K-AKT signaling pathway in human umbilical vein endothelial cells in vitro. Besides, provided that MgO was incorporated with 15 wt.% in CPS, the bioactivities had declined due to the environment consisting of higher-concentrated Mg ions, stronger alkalinity and lower Ca/P/Si ions caused. According to the results, it indicated that bioactivities of Mg-CPS in vitro were regulated by the double-edged effects, which were the consequence of Mg ions and alkaline environment combined. Therefore, if MgO is properly incorporated in CPS, the improved bioactivities could cover alkaline adversity, making Mg-CPS bioceramics promising in orthopedic clinical application for its enhancement of osteogenesis and angiogenesis in vitro.

Abstract
Many studies were conducted to change the surface morphology and chemical composition of Ti implants for the improvement of antibacterial ability and osseointegration between medical Ti and surrounding bone tissue. In this study, we successfully prepared a novel dual-function coating on pure Ti surface, i.e. Cu and Mg-co-doped TiO2 nanotube (TN) coating, by combining anodisation and hydrothermal treatment (HT), which could act as a delivery platform for the sustained release of Cu and Mg ions. Results showed that the amounts of Cu and Mg were about 5.43 wt%-6.55 wt% and 0.69 wt%-0.73 wt%, respectively. In addition, the surface morphology of Cu and Mg-co-doped TN (CuMTN) coatings transformed into nanoneedles after HT for 1 h. Compared with TN, CuMTN had no change in roughness and remarkable improved hydrophilicity. Antibacterial tests revealed that CuMTN had an antibacterial rate of more than 93% against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, thereby showing excellent antibacterial properties. In addition, CuMTN could induce the formation of apatite well after being immersed in simulated body fluid, showing good biological activity. Preosteoblasts (MC3T3-E1) cultured on CuMTN-coated Ti demonstrated better proliferation and osteogenic differentiation than pristine and as-anodised specimens. To the best of our best knowledge, this study had successfully attempted to combine anodisation and HT, introduce Cu/Mg elements and functionalise Ti-based implant surfaces with enhanced hydrophilicity, osteogenesis and antimicrobial properties that can meet clinical needs for the first time.

Abstract
Functional nanomaterials are one of the potential carriers for drug delivery, whereas there are many prerequisites for this purpose. The carrier should be monodispersed, be fluorescent, and have a proper nanostructure to keep/release drug molecules to achieve controlled release, although preparing a nanomaterial which fulfills all the demands is still very challenging. In this paper, we show the preparation of monodispersed nanoporous amorphous titania submicron particles with fluorescent property. They adsorb a model drug molecule-ibuprofen-with their surface coverage up to 100%. Such a perfect loading does not decrease the fluorescent intensity because of any quenching effects but even maximize it. We also demonstrate the release behavior of IBU into simulated body fluid. Interestingly, the present carrier releases most of IBU in 6 h, whereas that modified with the polyethylene glycol moiety takes 48 h to finish releasing IBU, indicating its potential for controlled release applications.

Abstract
The zirconia implants have a wide range of clinical applications, however, the biological inertness and lack of osteoinductive properties limit these applications. Strontium possesses superior biocompatibility and excellent osteogenic properties. To take advantage of these, the strontium titanate-coated zirconia implants were prepared in this study by sandblasting, acid etching, and magnetron sputtering, followed by the analysis of the biological behavior. Briefly, the zirconia sheets were polished and subjected to sandblasting and acid etching. Subsequently, a nano‑strontium titanate coating was developed on the sheets by magnetron sputtering. The specimens were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), water contact angle measurement (WCA) and EDS mapping, which confirmed the physical alternation and successful deposition of the strontium titanate coating. The in vitro experiments indicated that the majority of the filopodia and actin fibers of the MC3T3-E1 cells on SA-ZrO2/Sr possessed an optimal osteogenic property to promote the osteogenic differentiation. Moreover, the RT-PCR results revealed that SA-ZrO2/Sr significantly up-regulated the gene expression of Runx2, COL-1, ALP, OPG, OPN and OCN. Further, the in vivo evaluation confirmed that the SA-ZrO2/Sr implants promoted the bone-implant osseointegration to the greatest extent as compared to SA-ZrO2 and ZrO2 implant. Overall, the SA-ZrO2/Sr system was confirmed to be a promising implant, thus, providing new pathways for an effective implant design.

Abstract
Magnesium is the fourth most abundant element in the human body with a wide battery of functions in the maintenance of normal cell homeostasis. In the bone, this element incorporates in the hydroxyapatite structure and it takes part in mineral metabolism and regulates osteoclast functions. In this study, sol-gel materials with increasing concentrations of MgCl2 (0.5, 1, and 1.5%) were synthesized and applied onto Ti surfaces as coatings. The materials were first physicochemically characterized. In vitro responses were examined using the MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cells and RAW264.7 macrophages. Human serum protein adsorption was evaluated employing nLC-MS/MS. The incorporation of Mg did not affect the crosslinking of the sol-gel network, and a controlled release of Mg was observed; it was not cytotoxic at any of the tested concentrations. The cytoskeleton arrangement of MC3T3-E1 cells cultured on the Mg-doped materials changed in comparison with controls; the cells became more elongated, with protruded lamellipodia and increased cell surface. The expression of integrins (ITGA5 and ITGB1) was boosted by Mg-coatings. The ALP activity and expression of TGF-β, OSX and RUNX2 genes were also increased. In RAW264.7 cells, TNF-α secretion was reduced, while TGF-β and IL-4 expression rose. These changes correlated with the altered protein adsorption patterns. The Mg-doped coatings showed increased adsorption of anti-inflammatory (CLUS, IC1, CFAH, and VTNC), cell adhesion (DSG1, FILA2, and DESP) and tissue regeneration (VTNC and CYTA) proteins. This integrated approach to biomaterial characterization revealed the potential of Mg in bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
The in vivo fast degradation and poor biocompatibility are two major challenges of the magnesium alloys in the field of artificial bone materials. In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was first functionalized by chitosan (GOCS) and then immobilized on the magnesium alloy surface, finally the complex of heparin and bone morphogenetic protein 2 was incorporated on the modified surface to synergistically improve the corrosion resistance, anticoagulation, and osteogenesis. Apart from an excellent hydrophilicity after the surface modification, a sustained heparin and BMP2 release over 14 days was achieved. The corrosion resistance of the modified magnesium alloy was significantly better than that of the control according to the results of electrochemical tests. Moreover, the corrosion rate was also significantly reduced in contrast to the control. The modified magnesium alloy not only had excellent anticoagulation, but also can significantly promote osteoblast adhesion and proliferation, upregulate the expression of alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin, and enhance mineralization. Therefore, the method of the present study can be used to simultaneously improve the corrosion resistance and biocompatibility of the magnesium alloys targeted for the orthopedic applications.

Abstract
Bone is the most studied tissue in the field of tissue regeneration. Even though it has intrinsic capability to regenerate upon injury, several pathologies and injuries could hamper the highly orchestrated bone formation and resorption process. Bone tissue engineering seeks to mimic the extracellular matrix of the tissue and the different biochemical pathways that lead to successful regeneration. For many years, the use of extrinsic factors (i.e., growth factors and drugs) to modulate these biological processes have been the preferred choice in the field. Even though it has been successful in some instances, this approach presents several drawbacks, such as safety-concerns, short release profile and half-time life of the compounds. On the other hand, the use of inorganic ions has attracted significant attention due to their therapeutic effects, stability and lower biological risks. Biomaterials play a key role in such strategies where they serve as a substrate for the incorporation and release of the ions. In this review, the methodologies used to incorporate ions in biomaterials is presented, highlighting the osteogenic properties of such ions and the roles of biomaterials in controlling their release.

Abstract
This study compared the topography of different titanium surface structures (TiO2 nanotube and grain) with similar elemental compositions (TiO2 and fluorine [F]) on the Ti surface. High magnification indicated that the surfaces of the control and etching groups were similar to each other in a flat, smooth form. The group anodized for 1 h was observed with TiO2 nanotubes organized very neatly and regularly. In the group anodized for 30 min after etching, uneven wave and nanopore structures were observed. In addition, MTT assay showed that the F of the surface did not adversely affect cell viability, and the initial cell adhesion was increased in the 2.8% F‐incorporated TiO2 nanograin. At the edge of adherent cells, filopodia were observed in spreading form on the surfaces of the anodizing and two‐step processing groups, and they were observed in a branch shape in the control and etching groups. Moreover, cell adhesion molecule and osteogenesis marker expression was increased at the F‐incorporated TiO2 nanostructure. In addition, it was found that the expression of p‐extracellular signal‐regulated kinase (ERK) and p‐cAMP response element‐binding protein (CREB) increased in the TiO2 nanograin with the nanopore surface compared to the micro rough and nanotube surfaces relative to the osteogenic‐related gene expression patterns. As a result, this study confirmed that the topographic structure of the surface is more affected by osteogenic differentiation than the pore size and that differentiation by specific surface composition components is by CREB. Thus, the synergy effect of osteogenic differentiation was confirmed by the simultaneous activation of CREB/ERK.

Abstract
Bone fracture is prevalent among athletes and senior citizens and may require surgical insertion of bone implants. Titanium (Ti) and its alloys are widely used in orthopedics due to its high corrosion resistance, good biocompatibility, and modulus compatible with natural bone tissues. However, bone repair and regrowth are impeded by the insufficient intrinsic osteogenetic capability of Ti and Ti alloys and potential bacterial infection. The physicochemical properties of the materials and nano/microstructures on the implant surface are crucial for clinical success and loading with biofunctional elements such as Sr, Zn, Cu, Si, and Ag into nano/microstructured TiO2 coating has been demonstrated to enhance bone repair/regeneration and bacterial resistance of Ti implants. In this review, recent advances in biofunctional element-incorporated nano/microstructured coatings on Ti and Ti alloy implants are described and the prospects and limitations are discussed.

Abstract
Implants made of porous titanium alloy and fabricated by 3D printing are increasingly used in clinical research. However, porous titanium alloys do not integrate very well with surrounding bone tissue, and bone ingrowth into the implants is not substantial. Schwann cells (SCs) and SC-derived exosomes can effectively promote nerve regeneration, but their role in bone tissue regeneration and repair has not been studied. Therefore, we added SC-derived exosomes to bone marrow stromal cell (BMSC) cultures and observed their effect on BMSCs in vitro; then, we combined exosomes with porous Ti6Al4V scaffolds and observed their effects on bone regeneration and repair in vivo. We found that SC-derived exosomes could promote the migration, proliferation and differentiation of BMSCs and that combining exosomes with porous titanium alloy can effectively improve the efficacy of titanium alloy scaffolds in bone repair. The combination of exosomes and porous Ti6Al4V implants may constitute a new therapeutic strategy for treating bone defects.

Abstract
Background Next generation of coating materials on the surface of implants is designed with a paradigm shift from an inert material to an osteoimmunomodulatory material. Regulating immune response to biomedical implants through influencing the polarization of macrophage has been proven to be an effective strategy. Methods Through anodization and hydrothermal treatment, magnesium ion incorporated TiO2 nanotube array (MgN) coating was fabricated on the surface of titanium and it is hypothesized that it has osteoimmunomodulatory properties. To verify this assumption, systematic studies were carried out by in vitro and in vivo experiments. Results Mg ion release behavior results showed that MgN coating was successfully fabricated on the surface of titanium using anodization and hydrothermal technology. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images showed the morphology of the MgN coating on the titanium. The expression of inflammation-related genes (IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α) was downregulated in MgN group compared with TiO2 nanotube (NT) and blank Ti groups, but anti-inflammatory genes (IL-10 and IL-1ra) were remarkably upregulated in the MgN group. The in vitro and in vivo results demonstrated that MgN coating influenced macrophage polarization toward the M2 phenotype compared with NT and blank-Ti groups, which enhanced osteogenic differentiation of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells rBMSCs in conditioned media (CM) generated by macrophages. Conclusion MgN coating on the titanium endowed the surface with immune-regulatory features and exerted an advantageous effect on osteogenesis, thereby providing excellent strategies for the surface modification of biomedical implants.

MicroRNA-16, via FGF2 Regulation of the ERK/MAPK Pathway, Is Involved in the Magnesium-Promoted Osteogenic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2020; 2020:3894926. [PMID: 32411326 PMCID: PMC7201663 DOI: 10.1155/2020/3894926] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2020] [Accepted: 03/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
microRNAs (miRNAs) participate in the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). However, few reports have discussed the effect of miRNAs on the magnesium chloride (MgCl2)-induced promotion of osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, a process involved in the healing of bone tissue. As determined in the present investigation, MgCl2 decreased miR-16 levels; increased levels of fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2), p-p38, and p-ERK; and promoted the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Enhancement of miR-16 levels by an miR-16 mimic blocked these MgCl2-induced changes. Moreover, luciferase reporter assays confirmed that miR-16 binds to the 3'UTR region of FGF2 mRNA. Down-regulation of FGF2 blocked the MgCl2-induced increases of p-p38 and p-ERK and the promotion of the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Furthermore, over-expression of miR-16 attenuated the MgCl2-induced overproduction of p-p38 and p-ERK1/2 and the high levels of osteogenic differentiation, effects that were reversed by elevated expression of FGF2. In summary, the present findings provide a mechanism by which miR-16 regulates MgCl2-induced promotion of osteogenic differentiation by targeting FGF2-mediated activation of the ERK/MAPK pathway.

Enhanced osseointegration of three-dimensional supramolecular bioactive interface through osteoporotic microenvironment regulation. Theranostics 2020; 10:4779-4794.

Abstract
Purpose: Osteoporosis is more likely to cause serious complications after joint replacement, mainly due to physiological defects of endogenous osteogenic cells and the pathological osteoclast activity. It is a feasible solution to design a prosthetic surface interface that specifically addresses this troublesome situation. Methods: A novel "three-dimensional (3D) inorganic-organic supramolecular bioactive interface" was constructed consisting of stiff 3D printing porous metal scaffold and soft multifunctional, self-healable, injectable, and biodegradable supramolecular polysaccharide hydrogel. Apart from mimicking the bone extracellular matrix, the bioactive interface could also encapsulate bioactive substances, namely bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2). A series of in vitro characterizations, such as topography and mechanical characterization, in vitro release of BMP-2, biocompatibility analysis, and osteogenic induction of BMSCs were carried out. After that, the in vivo osseointegration effect of the bioactive interface was investigated in detail using an osteoporotic model. Results: The administration of injectable supramolecular hydrogel into the inner pores of 3D printing porous metal scaffold could obviously change the morphology of BMSCs and facilitate its cell proliferation. Meanwhile, BMP-2 was capable of being sustained released from supramolecular hydrogel, and subsequently induced osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and promoted the integration of the metal microspores-bone interface in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, the osteoporosis condition of bone around the bioactive interface was significantly ameliorated. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that the 3D inorganic-organic supramolecular bioactive interface can serve as a novel artificial prosthesis interface for various osteogenesis-deficient patients, such as osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract
Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) has been widely used in bone engineering. It can also be filled into the calvarial defects with irregular shape. However, lack of osteoinductive capacity limits its potential as a candidate repair material for calvarial defects. In this study, we developed an injectable magnesium-zinc alloy containing hydrogel complex (Mg-IHC), in which the alloy was fabricated in an atomization process and had small sphere, regular shape, and good fluidity. Mg-IHC can be injected and plastically shaped. After cross-linking, it contents the elastic modulus similar to GelMA, and has inner holes suitable for nutrient transportation. Furthermore, Mg-IHC showed promising biocompatibility according to our evaluations of its cell adhesion, growth status, and proliferating activity. The results of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, ALP staining, alizarin red staining, and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) further indicated that Mg-IHC could significantly promote the osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells and upregulate the genetic expression of collagen I (COL-I), osteocalcin (OCN), and runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2). Finally, after applied to a mouse model of critical-sized calvarial defect, Mg-IHC remarkably enhanced bone formation at the defect site. All of these results suggest that Mg-IHC can promote bone regeneration and can be potentially considered as a candidate for calvarial defect repairing.
