Abstract
Periodontal disease is the most common type of oral disease. Periodontal bone defect is the clinical outcome of advanced periodontal disease, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Promoting periodontal tissue regeneration and repairing periodontal bone defects is the ultimate treatment goal for periodontal disease, but the means and methods are very limited. Hydrogels are a class of highly hydrophilic polymer networks, and their good biocompatibility has made them a popular research material in the field of oral medicine in recent years. This paper reviews the current mainstream types and characteristics of hydrogels, and summarizes the relevant basic research on hydrogels in promoting periodontal tissue regeneration and bone defect repair in recent years. The possible mechanisms of action and efficacy evaluation are discussed in depth, and the application prospects are also discussed.

Abstract
Bone adhesive is a promising candidate to revolutionize the clinical treatment of bone repairs. However, several drawbacks have limited its further clinical application, such as unreliable wet adhesive performance leading to fixation failure and poor biodegradability inhibiting bone tissue growth. By incorporating catechol groups and disulfide bonds into polyurethane (PU) molecules, an injectable and porous PU adhesive is developed with both superior wet adhesion and biodegradability to facilitate the reduction and fixation of comminuted fractures and the subsequent regeneration of bone tissue. The bone adhesive can be cured within a reasonable time acceptable to a surgeon, and then the wet bone adhesive strength is near 1.30 MPa in 1 h. Finally, the wet adhesive strength to the cortical bone will achieve about 1.70 MPa, which is also five times more than nonresorbable poly(methyl methacrylate) bone cement. Besides, the cell culture experiments also indicate that the adhesives show excellent biocompatibility and osteogenic ability in vitro. Especially, it can degrade in vivo gradually and promote fracture healing in the rabbit iliac fracture model. These results demonstrate that this ingenious bone adhesive exhibits great potential in the treatment of comminuted fractures, providing fresh insights into the development of clinically applicable bone adhesives.

Abstract
A myriad of therapeutic agents and drug delivery systems are available to the surgeons for treating orthopedic implant-associated infections (OIAI), but only very few have demonstrated their effectiveness in preventing bacteria colonization and biofilm formation due to challenges in the local and sustainable therapeutic release. To address this issue, in this work, a thermosensitive injectable hydrogel based on chitosan (CH)-integrated hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAP NPs) containing vancomycin (Van) and quercetin (QC)-loaded in F127 micelles (CH-HAP-FQ-Van hydrogel) was fabricated with potential application in the treatment of OIAI. This dual drug delivery system demonstrated a pH-sensitive drug release pattern. In addition, 100 % growth inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus for a duration of 14 days was observed. Apart from the strong antioxidant activities owing to the co-administration of QC even after 432 h, this composite hydrogel revealed 95.88 ± 2.8 % S. aureus biofilm eradication. By consideration of degradation stability (53.52 ± 4.24 %) during 60 days along with smart gelation within 10 min at 37 °C and easy injectability, CH-HAP-FQ-Van hydrogel could be used as a promising ideal local drug delivery system for implant-related infections.

Abstract
Osteogenic scaffolds reproducing the natural bone composition, structures, and properties have represented the possible frontier of artificially orthopedic implants with the great potential to revolutionize surgical strategies against the bone-related diseases. However, it is difficult to achieve an all-in-one formula with the simultaneous requirement of favorable biocompatibility, flexible adhesion, high mechanical strength, and osteogenic effects. Here in this work, an osteogenic hydrogel scaffold fabricated by inorganic-in-organic integration between amine-modified bioactive glass (ABG) nanoparticles and poly(ethylene glycol) succinimidyl glutarate-polyethyleneimine (TSG-PEI) network was introduced as an all-in-one tool to flexibly adhere onto the defective tissue and subsequently accelerate the bone formation. Since the N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS)-ester of tetra-PEG-SG polymer could quickly react with the NH2-abundant polyethyleneimine (PEI) polymer and ABG moieties, the TSG-PEI@ABG hydrogel was rapidly formed with tailorable structures and properties. Relying on the dense integration between the TSG-PEI network and ABG moieties on a nano-scale level, this hydrogel expressed powerful adhesion to tissue as well as durable stability for the engineered scaffolds. Therefore, its self-endowed biocompatibility, high adhesive strength, compressive modulus, and osteogenic potency enabled the prominent capacities on modulation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSCs) proliferation and differentiation, which may propose a potential strategy on the simultaneous scaffold fixation and bone regeneration promotion for the tissue engineering fields.

Abstract
Although titanium and titanium alloys have become the preferred materials for various medical implants, surface modification technology still needs to be strengthened in order to adapt to the complex physiological environment of the human body. Compared with physical or chemical modification methods, biochemical modification, such as the introduction of functional hydrogel coating on implants, can fix biomolecules such as proteins, peptides, growth factors, polysaccharides, or nucleotides on the surface of the implants, so that they can directly participate in biological processes; regulate cell adhesion, proliferation, migration, and differentiation; and improve the biological activity on the surface of the implants. This review begins with a look at common substrate materials for hydrogel coatings on implant surfaces, including natural polymers such as collagen, gelatin, chitosan, and alginate, and synthetic materials such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylamide, polyethylene glycol, and polyacrylic acid. Then, the common construction methods of hydrogel coating (electrochemical method, sol-gel method and layer-by-layer self-assembly method) are introduced. Finally, five aspects of the enhancement effect of hydrogel coating on the surface bioactivity of titanium and titanium alloy implants are described: osseointegration, angiogenesis, macrophage polarization, antibacterial effects, and drug delivery. In this paper, we also summarize the latest research progress and point out the future research direction. After searching, no previous relevant literature reporting this information was found.

A Novel Method for the Fabrication of Antibacterial Stainless Steel with Uniform Silver Dispersions by Silver Nanoparticle/Polyethyleneimine Composites. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:ma16103719. [PMID: 37241346 DOI: 10.3390/ma16103719] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
Only a few studies have so far focused on the addition of silver to SS316L alloys by conventional sintering methods. Unfortunately, the metallurgical process of silver-containing antimicrobial SS is greatly limited due to the extremely low solubility of silver in iron and its tendency to precipitate at the grain boundaries, resulting in an inhomogeneous distribution of the antimicrobial phase and loss of antimicrobial properties. In this work, we present a novel approach to fabricate antibacterial stainless steel 316L by functional polyethyleneimine-glutaraldehyde copolymer (PEI-co-GA/Ag catalyst) composites. PEI is a highly branched cationic polymer, which makes it exhibit very good adhesion on the surface of the substrate. Unlike the effect of the conventional silver mirror reaction, the introduction of functional polymers can effectively improve the adhesion and distribution of Ag particles on the surface of 316LSS. It can be seen from the SEM images that a large number of silver particles are retained and well dispersed in 316LSS after sintering. PEI-co-GA/Ag 316LSS exhibits excellent antimicrobial properties and does not release free silver ions to affect the surrounding environment. Furthermore, the probable mechanism for the influence of the functional composites on the enhancement of adhesion is also proposed. The formation of a large number of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces, as well as the negative zeta potential of the 316LSS surface, can effectively enable the formation of a tight attraction between the Cu layer and the surface of 316LSS. These results meet our expectations of designing passive antimicrobial properties on the contact surface of medical devices.
