A 3D-printed orthopedic implant with dual-effect synergy based on MoS 2 and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles for tumor therapy and bone regeneration. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 228:113384. [PMID: 37320980 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2023.113384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Treatments for malignant bone tumors are urgently needed to be developed due to the dilemma of precise resection of tumor tissue and subsequent bone defects. Although polyether-ether-ketone (PEEK) has widely attracted attention in the orthopedic field, its bioinertness and poor osteogenic properties significantly restrict its applications in bone tumor treatment. To tackle the daunting issue, we use a hydrothermal technique to fabricate novel PEEK scaffolds modified with molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanosheets and hydroxyapatite (HA) nanoparticles. Our dual-effect synergistic PEEK scaffolds exhibit perfect photothermal therapeutic (PTT) property dependent on molybdous ion (Mo2+) concentration and laser power density, superior to conventional PEEK scaffolds. Under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, the viability of MG63 osteosarcoma cells is significantly reduced by modified PEEK scaffolds, indicating a tumor-killing potential in vitro. Furthermore, the incorporation of HA nanoparticles on the surface of PEEK bolsters proliferation and adherence of MC3T3-E1 cells, boosting mineralization for further bone defect repair. The results of micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) and histological analysis of 4-week treated rat femora demonstrate the preeminent photothermal and osteogenesis capacity of 3D-printed modified scaffolds in vivo. In conclusion, the dual-effect synergistic orthopedic implant with photothermal anticancer property and osteogenic induction activity strikes a balance between tumor treatment and bone development promotion, offering a promising future therapeutic option.

Abstract
Human bones can suffer from various injuries, such as fractures, bone cancer, among others, which has initiated research activities towards bone replacement using advanced bio-materials. However, it is still challenging to design bio-scaffolds with bone-inducing agents to regenerate bone defects. In this regard, MAX-phases and MXenes (early transition metal carbides and/or nitrides) have gained notable attention due to their unique hydrophilicity, bio-compatibility, chemical stability, and photothermal properties. They can be used in bone tissue engineering as a suitable replacement or reinforcement for common bio-materials (polymers, bio-glasses, metals, or hydroxyapatite). To fabricate bio-scaffolds, additive manufacturing is prospective due to the possibility of controlling porosity and creating complex shapes with high resolution. Until now, no comprehensive article summarizing the existing state-of-the-art related to bone scaffolds reinforced by MAX-phases and MXenes fabricated by additive manufacturing has been published. Therefore, our article addresses the reasons for using bone scaffolds and the importance of choosing the most suitable material. We critically discuss the recent developments in bone tissue engineering and regenerative medicine using MAX-phases and MXenes with a particular emphasis on manufacturing, mechanical properties, and bio-compatibility. Finally, we discuss the existing challenges and bottlenecks of bio-scaffolds reinforced by MAX-phases and MXenes before deriving their future potential.

Abstract
Denosumab, a fully humanized monoclonal neutralizing antibody, inhibits activation of the RANK/RANKL/OPG signaling pathway through competitive binding with RANKL, thereby inhibiting osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. Denosumab inhibits bone loss; therefore, it is used to treat metabolic bone diseases (including postmenopausal osteoporosis, male osteoporosis, and glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis), in clinical practice. Since then, multiple effects of denosumab have been discovered. A growing body of evidence suggests that denosumab has a variety of pharmacological activities and broad potential in clinical diseases such as osteoarthritis, bone tumors, and other autoimmune diseases. Currently, Denosumab is emerging as a treatment for patients with malignancy bone metastases, and it also shows direct or indirect anti-tumor effects in preclinical models and clinical applications. However, as an innovative drug, its clinical use for bone metastasis of malignant tumors is still insufficient, and its mechanism of action needs to be further investigated. This review systematically summarizes the pharmacological mechanism of action of denosumab and the current understanding and clinical practice of the use of denosumab for bone metastasis of malignant tumors to help clinicians and researchers deepen their understanding of denosumab.

Abstract
The recurrence and bone defect of malignant osteosarcoma postsurgical treatment have gained remarkable attention. Therefore, the development of multifunctional treatment platform is urgently desirable to achieve efficient tumor treatment and bone regeneration. In this paper, a multifunctional nanomaterial using mesoporous silica (MSN) as platform modified with quercetin (Qr), collagen (Col) and dopamine (PDA) was developed. Our findings demonstrated that the nanoparticles designed in this work had excellent photothermal properties and pH responsiveness. In addition, the nanoparticles had outstanding anti-tumor ability and could killed Saos-2 cells within 10 min under 808 nm laser irradiation owing to the synergistic effect of hyperthermia and Qr. Besides, the modification of PDA and Col endows the nanoparticles with excellent osteogenic activity.

Abstract
Incomplete removal of tumor cells and insufficient osseointegration are the main causes of bone tumor recurrence and implantation failure. In the present study, a multifunctional titanium-based bioactive implant for near-infrared-triggered synergy therapy to overcome these hurdles is engineered, composed of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles doped with fluorine (F)/dopamine (PDA)/collagen. The TiO2 nanoparticles designed in this work can simultaneously exhibit excellent near-infrared-activated photothermal and photocatalytic properties. Besides, the layer designed in this work show excellent anti-tumor activity under irradiation with 808 nm light due to the synergetic effect of hyperthermia and reactive oxygen species (ROS), and Saos-2 cells can be eradicated within 10 min. Moreover, modification of PDA and collagen endue the Ti alloy excellent osteogenic activity.

Abstract
Molybdenum is a trace dietary element necessary for the survival of humans. Some molybdenum-bearing enzymes are involved in key metabolic activities in the human body (such as xanthine oxidase, aldehyde oxidase and sulfite oxidase). Many molybdenum-based compounds have been widely used in biomedical research. Especially, MoS2-nanomaterials have attracted more attention in cancer diagnosis and treatment recently because of their unique physical and chemical properties. MoS2 can adsorb various biomolecules and drug molecules via covalent or non-covalent interactions because it is easy to modify and possess a high specific surface area, improving its tumor targeting and colloidal stability, as well as accuracy and sensitivity for detecting specific biomarkers. At the same time, in the near-infrared (NIR) window, MoS2 has excellent optical absorption and prominent photothermal conversion efficiency, which can achieve NIR-based phototherapy and NIR-responsive controlled drug-release. Significantly, the modified MoS2-nanocomposite can specifically respond to the tumor microenvironment, leading to drug accumulation in the tumor site increased, reducing its side effects on non-cancerous tissues, and improved therapeutic effect. In this review, we introduced the latest developments of MoS2-nanocomposites in cancer diagnosis and therapy, mainly focusing on biosensors, bioimaging, chemotherapy, phototherapy, microwave hyperthermia, and combination therapy. Furthermore, we also discuss the current challenges and prospects of MoS2-nanocomposites in cancer treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To retrospectively compare the clinical efficacy and safety of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for the management of osteolytic and osteoblastic-related metastatic vertebral lesions. METHODS A total of 117 patients with osteolytic (87 cases, 159 lesions, OL group) or osteoblastic-related (30 cases, 56 lesions, OB group) metastatic vertebral lesions underwent PKP. The clinical efficacy was assessed based on parameters including Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), vertebral body height (VBH) variation, and quality of life (QoL). Major and minor complications were systematically evaluated to assess the safety of the procedure. RESULTS No significant differences were found in the age, sex, or amount of bone cement between both groups (p>0.05). Compared with the OB group, the OL group was superior in operation duration (p<0.05) but was inferior in inflation pressure (p<0.05). Both groups experienced significant pain relief and improvement in the ODI, VBH, and QoL after PKP (p<0.05). The OB group had a better pain relief according to the VAS score but a poorer VBH restoration than the OL group throughout the follow-up period (p<0.05). No significant differences were observed in ODI and QoL between the two groups (p>0.05). The incidence of complications in the OL group was significantly higher than that in the OB group (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS PKP can safely achieve pain relief, functional improvement, VBH restoration, and QoL improvement for patients with osteolytic or osteoblastic-related metastatic vertebral lesions. Patients with osteolytic metastatic vertebral lesions showed better VBH restoration and had a shorter operation time but experienced less pain relief and had a greater incidence of complications than patients with osteoblastic-related metastatic vertebral lesions after PKP.

Abstract
Bone tumors are currently a major clinical challenge. In recent decades, strategies using well-designed versatile biomaterials for the treatment of bone tumors have emerged and attracted extensive research interest. Suitable biomaterials not only facilitate repair for bone defects aroused by surgical intervention but also help deliver antineoplastic drugs to the target site or provide photothermal/magnetothermal therapy to kill bone tumor cells. Thus, the development of biomaterials exhibits a great perspective for future bone tumor treatment.We summarize the recent progress of versatile biomaterials for bone tumor therapy, with an emphasis on photothermal/magnetothermal therapy and drug delivery.With the further understanding and development of biomaterials, multifunctional biomaterials have been proposed for bone tumor treatment. Through the interdisciplinary cooperation from the fields of biomedicine, clinical medicine and engineering, multifunctional biomaterials will perfectly match individual bone defects in the clinic with low cost in the future.

Abstract
Bioceramics such as calcium silicate (Ca-Si), have gained a lot of interest in the biomedical field due to their strength, osteogenesis capability, mechanical stability, and biocompatibility. As such, these materials are excellent candidates to promote bone and tissue regeneration along with treating bone cancer. Bioceramic scaffolds, functionalized with appropriate materials, can achieve desirable photothermal effects, opening up a bifunctional approach to osteosarcoma treatments-simultaneously killing cancerous cells while expediting healthy bone tissue regeneration. At the same time, they can also be used as vehicles and cargo structures to deliver anticancer drugs and molecules in a targeted manner to tumorous tissue. However, the traditional synthesis routes for these bioceramic scaffolds limit the macro-, micro-, and nanostructures necessary for maximal benefits for photothermal therapy and drug delivery. Therefore, a different approach to formulate bioceramic scaffolds has emerged in the form of 3D printing, which offers a sustainable, highly reproducible, and scalable method for the production of valuable biomedical materials. Here, calcium silicate (Ca-Si) is reviewed as a novel 3D printing base material, functionalized with highly photothermal materials for osteosarcoma therapy and drug delivery platforms. Consequently, this review aims to detail advances made towards functionalizing 3D-printed Ca-Si and similar bioceramic scaffold structures as well as their resulting applications for various aspects of tumor therapy, with a focus on the external surface and internal dispersion functionalization of the scaffolds.

Abstract
Plasma-sprayed hydroxyapatite (HAp) coated titanium (Ti) implants are being extensively used in orthopedic surgeries and post-tumor resection to repair load-bearing segmental bone defects. In this study, vitamin C, an abundantly available natural biomolecule, is loaded onto plasma-sprayed HAp-coated commercially pure titanium (cpTi) surface to evaluate its chemopreventive and osteogenic properties, suggesting its clinical significance as an alternative or adjunct therapy in the treatment for osteosarcoma bone resection. Controlled release of vitamin C from HAp coated cpTi implant is assessed by in vitro drug release study, where Korsmeyer-Peppas model was applied to understand the release kinetics. After 21 days, the implants loaded with 400 and 800 μg of vitamin C showed a cumulative release of 62.7 and 74.1% in acidic microenvironment, whereas, 50.9% and 53.1% of total vitamin C release were observed by the implants loaded with 400 and 800 μg of vitamin C in physiological pH, respectively. To observe the effects of in vitro vitamin C release on osteosarcoma and osteoblast cellular activity, MG-63 (human osteosarcoma) and hFOB (human fetal osteoblast) cells were cultured on the surface of the implant and MTT cell viability assay and FESEM were carried out at 3 and 7 days of culture. Presence of high dosages 25 mM vitamin C shows a statistically significant (p≤0.05) decrease in osteosarcoma cell viability after 3 days, while both 5 mM and 25mM vitamin C reduced cellular viability by 2.5 folds (p≤0.05) compared to the control after 7 days. Interestingly, the presence of vitamin C showed no obvious signs of cytotoxicity towards osteoblast cell-line at day 3 and day 7, as confirmed by the MTT assay. Additionally, the FESEM images depict layers of hFOB cellular morphology on the surface of the implants, suggesting excellent cytocompatibility towards the osteoblast cells. These results suggest that vitamin C loaded HAp coated cpTi implant with improved osteogenic and chemopreventive properties can be considered as a promising reconstructive option to repair the post-tumor resection defects in osteosarcoma.

Abstract
Researchers have been creating 3D replicas of damaged tissues for millions of patients by using innovative biomaterials. While these scaffolds have regenerative properties, it would be beneficial if they could be utilized for local therapies, such as for cancer treatment. This report discusses the main advances in graphene scaffold design for near-infrared (NIR) photothermal therapy (PTT). NIR-PTT is a promising alternative for cancer cell killing, mediated by an increase of temperature due to NIR light-absorbers delivered to the tumor proximity. Graphene is a bidimensional material largely exploited in nanomedicine for its unique properties, such as high growth factor loading, which induces cell differentiation and its capacity to absorb NIR light. Here we cover aspects of future research in multifunctional graphene implants for cancer therapy and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Successful repair of critical-sized tumor-resection defects, especially in load-bearing bones, still remains a major challenge in clinical orthopedics. Titanium (Ti) implants have been increasingly used in the past few decades because of titanium's suitable mechanical properties and biocompatibility; however, it shows insufficient integration with the surrounding bone. In this study, the plasma spray technique is utilized to form homogeneous hydroxyapatite (HA) coating on the surface of the Ti implant to enhance osseointegration at the tissue-implant interface. These coated implants are loaded with curcumin and vitamin K2 to introduce chemopreventive and osteogenesis ability via controlled release of these biomolecules. The synergistic effect of these two biomolecules showed enhanced in vitro osteoblast (hFOB) cell attachment and proliferation for 11 days. Moreover, these biomolecules showed lower in vitro osteosarcoma (MG-63) cell proliferation after 3, 7, and 11 days. An in vivo study was carried out to evaluate the bone bonded zone in a rat distal femur model at an early wound healing stage of 5 days. Modified Masson Goldner staining of the tissue-implant section showed improved contact between tissue and implant in dual drug-loaded HA-coated Ti implants compared to control implants. This work presents a successful fabrication of a mechanically competent functional Ti implant with the advantages of enhanced in vitro osteoblast proliferation, osteosarcoma inhibition, and in vivo osseointegration, indicating the potential for load-bearing bone-defect repair after tumor resection.

Abstract
Although bone graft is still considered as the gold standard method, bone tissue engineering offers promising alternatives designed to mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) and to guide bone regeneration process. In this attempt, due to their similarity to the ECM and their low toxicity/immunogenicity properties, growing attention is paid to natural polymers. In particular, considering the early critical role of fracture hematoma for bone healing, fibrin, which constitutes blood clot, is a candidate of choice. Indeed, in addition to its physiological roles in bone healing cascade, fibrin biochemical characteristics make it suitable to be used as a multipurpose platform for bioactive agents’ delivery. Thus, taking advantage of these key assets, researchers and clinicians have the opportunity to develop composite systems that might further improve bone tissue reconstruction, and more generally prevent/treat skeletal disorders.

Abstract
The clinical treatment of bone tumors usually brings about residual tumor cells and large bone defects after tumor removal surgery. To solve this problem, it is imperative to develop a novel implant with bi-functions for eliminating the residual tumor cells and repairing bone defects. In this study, hydrogenated black TiO2 (H-TiO2) coating with hierarchical micro/nano-topographies is fabricated by induction suspension plasma spraying (ISPS). The fabricated H-TiO2 coating possessed excellent and controllable photothermal effect in inhibiting the tumor growth under 808 nm NIR laser irradiation in vitro and in vivo. The hierarchical hybrid micro/nano-structured surface and Ti-OH groups improved the adhesion, proliferation, differentiation and osteogenic gene expressions of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs). These results demonstrate that the H-TiO2 coating may be a promising implant material for the treatment of bone tumors and bone regeneration.

Abstract
The development of multifunctional biomaterials to repair bone defects after neoplasm removal and inhibit tumor recurrence remained huge clinical challenges. Here, we demonstrate a kind of innovative and multifunctional magnetic mesoporous calcium sillicate/chitosan (MCSC) porous scaffolds, made of M-type ferrite particles (SrFe12O19), mesoporous calcium silicate (CaSiO3) and chitosan (CS), which exert robust anti-tumor and bone regeneration properties. The mesopores in the CaSiO3 microspheres contributed to the drug delivery property, and the SrFe12O19 particles improved photothermal therapy (PTT) conversion efficacy. With the irradiation of NIR laser, doxorubicin (DOX) was rapidly released from the MCSC/DOX scaffolds. In vitro and in vivo tests demonstrated that the MCSC scaffolds possessed the excellent anti-tumor efficacy via the synergetic effect of DOX drug release and hyperthermia ablation. Moreover, BMP-2/Smad/Runx2 pathway was involved in the MCSC scaffolds promoted proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs). Taken together, the MCSC scaffolds have the ability to promote osteogenesis and enhance synergetic photothermal-chemotherapy against osteosarcoma, indicating MCSC scaffolds may have great application potential for bone tumor-related defects.

Abstract
Bisphosphonates (BPs) are the most utilized drugs for the treatment of osteoporosis, and are usefully employed also for other pathologies characterized by abnormally high bone resorption, including bone metastases. Due to the great affinity of these drugs for calcium ions, calcium phosphates are ideal delivery systems for local administration of BPs to bone, which is aimed to avoid/limit the undesirable side effects of their prolonged systemic use. Direct synthesis in aqueous medium and chemisorptions from solution are the two main routes proposed to synthesize BP functionalized calcium phosphates. The present review overviews the information acquired through the studies on the interaction between bisphosphonate molecules and calcium phosphates. Moreover, particular attention is addressed to some important recent achievements on the applications of BP functionalized calcium phosphates as biomaterials for bone substitution/repair.

Abstract
Bone is the most common target organ of metastasis of breast cancers. This produces considerable morbidity due to skeletal-related events, and severely reduces the quality of life. Increased osteoclast activity is implicated in breast cancer outgrowth in the bone microenvironment. Our previous observation of an anti-osteoclastic activity of hypericin, a natural plant compound, led us to investigate whether hypericin could inhibit bone metastasis and osteolysis caused by breast cancer. We find that hypericin inhibited the upregulation of osteoclasts stimulated by breast cancer cells. The activity of hypericin on osteoclasts and breast cancer-mediated osteoclastogenesis was associated with the inhibition of NFATc1 signaling pathway and attenuation of Ca2+ oscillation. Furthermore, hypericin suppresses invasion and migration in breast cancer cells, but has little effect on breast cancer-cell induced RANKL/OPG ratio in osteoblast or the expression of osteoclast-activating factors. Administration of hypericin could reduce tumor burden, osteolysis induced by direct inoculation of MDA-MB-231 cells into the bone marrow cavity of the tibia as well as metastasis of bone and improve survival in an experimental metastasis model by intracardiac injection of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. Taken together, these results suggest that hypericin may be a potential natural agent for preventing and treating bone destruction in patients with bone metastasis due to breast cancer.

Abstract
Curcumin is the active component of turmeric extract derived from the Curcuma longa plant. In the last decade, curcumin has raised a considerable interest in medicine owing to its negligible toxicity and multiple therapeutic actions including anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial activities. Among the various molecular targets of curcumin, some are involved in bone remodeling, which strongly suggests that curcumin can affect the skeletal system. The review sheds light on the current and potential applications of curcumin to treat bone disorders characterized by an excessive resorption activity. Within the scope of this review, the novel formulations of curcumin to overcome its physico-chemical and pharmacokinetic constraints are also discussed.

Abstract
The integration of an implant material with bone tissue depends on the chemistry and physics of the implant surface. In this study we applied matrix assisted pulsed laser evaporation (MAPLE) in order to synthesize calcium alendronate monohydrate (a bisphosphonate obtained by calcium sequestration from octacalcium phosphate by alendronate) and calcium alendronate monohydrate/octacalcium phosphate composite thin films on titanium substrates. Octacalcium phosphate coatings were prepared as reference material. The powders, which were synthesized in aqueous medium, were suspended in deionised water, frozen at liquid nitrogen temperature and used as targets for MAPLE experiments. The transfer was conducted with a KrF* excimer laser source (λ = 248 nm, τFWHM ≤ 25 ns) in mild conditions of temperature and pressure. XRD, FTIR and SEM analyses confirmed that the coatings contain the same crystalline phases as the as-prepared powder samples. Osteoblast derived from stem cells and osteoclast derived from monocytes of osteoporotic subjects were co-cultured on the coatings up to 14 days. Osteoclast displayed significantly reduced proliferation and differentiation in the presence of calcium alendronate monohydrate, pointing to a clear role of the coatings containing this bisphosphonate on inhibiting excessive bone resorption. At variance, osteoblast production of alkaline phosphatase and type I pro-collagen were promoted by the presence of bisphosphonate, which also decreased the production of interleukin 6. The positive influence towards osteoblast differentiation was even more enhanced in the composite coatings, thanks to the presence of octacalcium phosphate.

Abstract
Different possible options were investigated to combine an apatitic calcium phosphate cement with gallium ions, known as bone resorption inhibitors. Gallium can be either chemisorbed onto calcium-deficient apatite or inserted in the structure of β-tricalcium phosphate, and addition of these gallium-doped components into the cement formulation did not significantly affect the main properties of the biomaterial, in terms of injectability and setting time. Under in vitro conditions, the amount of gallium released from the resulting cement pellets was found to be low, but increased in the presence of osteoclastic cells. When implanted in rabbit bone critical defects, a remodeling process of the gallium-doped implant started and an excellent bone interface was observed. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The integration of drugs and materials is a growing force in the medical industry. The incorporation of pharmaceutical products not only promises to expand the therapeutic scope of biomaterials technology but to design a new generation of true combination products whose therapeutic value stem equally from both the structural attributes of the material and the intrinsic therapy of the drug. In this context, for the first time an injectable calcium phosphate cement containing gallium was designed with properties suitable for practical application as a local delivery system, implantable by minimally invasive surgery. This important and original paper reports the design and in-depth chemical and physical characterization of this groundbreaking technology.

Abstract
The bone is the most common metastatic site of breast cancer. Bone metastasis causes pain, pathologic fractures, and severely reduces the quality of life. Breast cancer causes osteolytic bone metastasis, which is dependent on osteoclast-mediated bone resorption. While current treatments rely on palliative anti-resorptive agents, there is a need to develop a drug based on potential alternative therapies. This study is the first to determine that wedelolactone (WDL), a natural coumarin isolated from plants, can inhibit breast cancer-mediated osteoclastogenesis. Osteoclasts were generated from human CD14(+) monocytes cultured with M-CSF/RANKL and WDL suppressed human osteoclast differentiation and activity in vitro in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, WDL inhibited the upregulation of osteoclasts stimulated by MDA‑MB‑231 breast cancer cells. The activity of WDL on osteoclasts and breast cancer-mediated osteoclastogenesis was associated with the inhibition of Akt/mammalian target of the rapamycin signaling pathway (mTOR). Blocking Akt and mTOR by specific inhibitors significantly decreased osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption. Furthermore, WDL regulated breast cancer-enhanced interaction of osteoblasts and osteoclasts by decreasing M-CSF expression in MDA‑MB‑231-stimulated osteoblasts. Thus, this study suggests that WDL may be a potential natural agent for preventing and treating bone destruction in patients with bone metastasis due to breast cancer.
