Enhancement of Local Osseointegration and Implant Stability of Titanium Implant in Osteoporotic Rats by Biomimetic Multilayered Structures Containing Catalpol. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:29544-29556. [PMID: 39005760 PMCID: PMC11238284 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.4c02322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
This study examined the surface modification of titanium (Ti) implants to enhance early-stage osseointegration, which reduced the failure rate of internal fixation in osteoporotic fractures that inherently decrease in bone mass and strength. We employed a layer-by-layer electroassembly technique to deposit catalpol-containing hyaluronic acid/chitosan multilayers onto the surface of Ti implants. To evaluate the in vitro osteoinductive effects of catalpol-coated Ti implants, the robust osteoblast differentiation capacity of the murine preosteoblast cell line, MC3T3-E1, was employed. Furthermore, the performance of these implants was evaluated in vivo through femoral intramedullary implantation in Sprague-Dawley rats. The engineered implant effectively regulated catalpol release, promoting increased bone formation during the initial stages of implantation. The in vitro findings demonstrated that catalpol-coated Ti surfaces boosted ALP activity, cell proliferation as measured by CCK-8, and osteogenic protein expression via WB analysis, surpassing the uncoated Ti group (P < 0.05). In vivo micro-computed tomography (CT) and histological analyses revealed that catalpol-coated Ti significantly facilitated the formation and remodeling of new bone in osteoporotic rats at 14 days post-implantation. This study outlines a comprehensive and straightforward methodology for the fabrication of biofunctional Ti implants to address osteoporosis.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to construct a rutin-controlled release system on the surface of Ti substrates and investigate its effects on osteogenesis and osseointegration on the surface of implants. The base layer, polyethylenimine (PEI), was immobilised on a titanium substrate. Then, hyaluronic acid (HA)/chitosan (CS)-rutin (RT) multilayer films were assembled on the PEI using layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly technology. We used scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and contact angle measurements to examine all Ti samples. The drug release test of rutin was also carried out to detect the slow-release performance. The osteogenic abilities of the samples were evaluated by experiments on an osteoporosis rat model and MC3T3-E1 cells. The results (SEM, FTIR and contact angle measurements) all confirmed that the PEI substrate layer and HA/CS-RT multilayer film were effectively immobilised on titanium. The drug release test revealed that a rutin controlled release mechanism had been successfully established. Furthermore, thein vitrodata revealed that osteoblasts on the coated titanium matrix had greater adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation capacity than the osteoblasts on the pure titanium surface. When MC3T3-E1 cells were exposed to H2O2-induced oxidative stressin vitro, cell-based tests revealed great tolerance and increased osteogenic potential on HA/CS-RT substrates. We also found that the HA/CS-RT coating significantly increased the new bone mass around the implant. The LBL-deposited HA/CS-RT multilayer coating on the titanium base surface established an excellent rutin-controlled release system, which significantly improved osseointegration and promoted osteogenesis under oxidative stress conditions, suggesting a new implant therapy strategy for patients with osteoporosis.

Polysaccharide-based nano-engineered multilayers for controlled cellular adhesion in label-free biosensors. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 247:125701.

Abstract
Controlling cellular adhesion is a critical step in the development of biomaterials, and in cell- based biosensing assays. Usually, the adhesivity of cells is tuned by an appropriate biocompatible layer. Here, synthetic poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC), natural chitosan, and heparin (existing in an extracellular matrix) were selected to assembly PDADMAC/heparin and chitosan/heparin films. The physicochemical properties of macroion multilayers were determined by streaming potential measurements (SPM), quartz crystal microbalance (QCM-D), and optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy (OWLS). The topography of the wet films was imaged using atomic force microscopy (AFM). The adhesion of preosteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1 on those well-characterized polysaccharide-based multilayers was evaluated using a resonant waveguide grating (RWG) based optical biosensor and digital holographic microscopy. The latter method was engaged to investigate long-term cellular behavior on the fabricated multilayers. (PDADMAC/heparin) films were proved to be the most effective in inducing cellular adhesion. The cell attachment to chitosan/heparin-based multilayers was negligible. It was found that efficient adhesion of the cells occurs onto homogeneous and rigid multilayers (PDADMAC/heparin), whereas the macroion films forming "sponge-like" structures (chitosan/heparin) are less effective, and could be employed when reduced adhesion is needed. Polysaccharide-based multilayers can be considered versatile systems for medical applications. One can postulate that the presented results are relevant not only for modeling studies but also for applied research.

Abstract
The use of hydrogel (HG) in regenerative medicine is an emerging field and thus several approaches have been proposed recently to find an appropriate hydrogel system. In this sense, this study developed a novel HG system using collagen, chitosan, and VEGF composites for culturing mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and investigated their ability for osteogenic differentiation and mineral deposition. Our results showed that the HG loaded with 100 ng/mL VEGF (HG-100) significantly supported the proliferation of undifferentiated MSCs, the fibrillary filament structure (HE stain), mineralization (alizarin red S and von Kossa stain), alkaline phosphatase, and the osteogenesis of differentiated MSCs compared to other hydrogels (loaded with 25 and 50 ng/mL VEGF) and control (without hydrogel). HG-100 showed a higher VEGF releasing rate from day 3 to day 7 than other HGs, which substantially supports the proliferative and osteogenic properties of HG-100. However, the HGs did not increase the cell growth in differentiated MSCs on days 14 and 21 due to the confluence state (reach stationary phase) and cell loading ability, regardless of the VEGF content. Similarly, the HGs alone did not stimulate the osteogenesis of MSCs; however, they increased the osteogenic ability of MSCs in presence of osteogenic supplements. Accordingly, a fabricated HG with VEGF could be used as an appropriate system to culture stem cells for bone and dental regeneration.

Effects of Calcium Carbonate Microcapsules and Nanohydroxyapatite on Properties of Thermosensitive Chitosan/Collagen Hydrogels. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15020416. [PMID: 36679297 PMCID: PMC9861171 DOI: 10.3390/polym15020416] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2022] [Revised: 01/05/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Thermosensitive chitosan/collagen hydrogels are osteoconductive and injectable materials. In this study, we aimed to improve these properties by adjusting the ratio of nanohydroxyapatite particles to calcium carbonate microcapsules in a β-glycerophosphate-crosslinked chitosan/collagen hydrogel. Two hydrogel systems with 2% and 5% nanohydroxyapatite particles were studied, each of which had varying microcapsule content (i.e., 0%, 1%, 2%, and 5%). Quercetin-incorporated calcium carbonate microcapsules were prepared. Calcium carbonate microcapsules and nanohydroxyapatite particles were then added to the hydrogel according to the composition of the studied system. The properties of the hydrogels, including cytotoxicity and biocompatibility, were investigated in mice. The calcium carbonate microcapsules were 2-6 µm in size, spherical, with rough and nanoporous surfaces, and thus exhibited a burst release of impregnated quercetin. The 5% nanohydroxyapatite system is a solid particulate gel that supports homogeneous distribution of microcapsules in the three-dimensional matrix of the hydrogels. Calcium carbonate microcapsules increased the mechanical and physical strength, viscoelasticity, and physical stability of the nanohydroxyapatite hydrogels while decreasing their porosity, swelling, and degradation rates. The calcium carbonate microcapsules-nanohydroxyapatite hydrogels were noncytotoxic and biocompatible. The properties of the hydrogel can be tailored by adjusting the ratio of calcium carbonate microcapsules to the nanohydroxyapatite particles. The 1% calcium carbonate microcapsules containing 5% nanohydroxyapatite particle-chitosan/collagen hydrogel exhibited mechanical and physical strength, permeability, and prolonged release profiles of quercetin, which were superior to those of the other studied systems and were optimal for promoting bone regeneration and delivering natural flavonoids.

Abstract
Bone Regeneration represents a clinical need, related to bone defects such as congenital anomalies, trauma with bone loss, and/or some pathologies such as cysts or tumors This is why a polymeric biomaterial that mimics the osteogenic composition and structure represents a high potential to face this problem. The method of obtaining these materials was first to prepare a stabilized hydrogel by means of physical bonds and then to make use of the lyophilization technique to obtain the 3D porous scaffolds with temperature conditions of -58 °C and pressure of 1 Pa for 16 h. The physicochemical and bioactive properties of the scaffolds were studied. FTIR and TGA results confirm the presence of the initial components in the 3d matrix of the scaffold. The scaffolds exhibited a morphology with pore size and interconnectivity that promote good cell viability. Together, the cell viability and proliferation test, Alamar BlueTM and the differentiation test: alizarin staining, showed the ability of physically stabilized scaffolds to proliferate and differentiate swine dental pulp stem cell (DPSCs) followed by mineralization. Therefore, the Cs-PCL-PVA-HA scaffold stabilized by physical bonds has characteristics that suggest great utility for future complementary in vitro tests and in vivo studies on bone defects. Likewise, this biomaterial was enhanced with the addition of HA, providing a scaffold with osteoconductive properties necessary for good regeneration of bone tissue. Graphical abstract.

Advances in Modification Methods Based on Biodegradable Membranes in Guided Bone/Tissue Regeneration: A Review. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14050871.

Abstract
Guided tissue/bone regeneration (GTR/GBR) is commonly applied in dentistry to aid in the regeneration of bone/tissue at a defective location, where the assistive material eventually degrades to be substituted with newly produced tissue. Membranes separate the rapidly propagating soft tissue from the slow-growing bone tissue for optimal tissue regeneration results. A broad membrane exposure area, biocompatibility, hardness, ductility, cell occlusion, membrane void ratio, tissue integration, and clinical manageability are essential functional properties of a GTR/GBR membrane, although no single modern membrane conforms to all of the necessary characteristics. This review considers ongoing bone/tissue regeneration engineering research and the GTR/GBR materials described in this review fulfill all of the basic ISO requirements for human use, as determined through risk analysis and rigorous testing. Novel modified materials are in the early stages of development and could be classified as synthetic polymer membranes, biological extraction synthetic polymer membranes, or metal membranes. Cell attachment, proliferation, and subsequent tissue development are influenced by the physical features of GTR/GBR membrane materials, including pore size, porosity, and mechanical strength. According to the latest advances, key attributes of nanofillers introduced into a polymer matrix include suitable surface area, better mechanical capacity, and stability, which enhances cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Therefore, it is essential to construct a bionic membrane that satisfies the requirements for the mechanical barrier, the degradation rate, osteogenesis, and clinical operability.

Abstract
Chitosan scaffolds based on blending polymers are a common strategy used in tissue engineering. The objective of this study was evaluation the properties of scaffolds based on a ternary blend of chitosan (Chi), gelatin (Ge), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) (Chi/Ge/PVA), which were prepared by cycles of freeze-thawing and freeze-drying. It then was used for three-dimensional BRIN-BD11 beta-cells culturing. Weight ratios of Chi/Ge/PVA (1:1:1, 2:2:1, 2:3:1, and 3:2:1) were proposed and porosity, pore size, degradation, swelling rate, compressive strength, and cell viability analyzed. All ternary blend scaffolds structures are highly porous (with a porosity higher than 80%) and interconnected. The pore size distribution varied from 0.6 to 265 μm. Ternary blends scaffolds had controllable degradation rates compared to binary blend scaffolds, and an improved swelling capacity of the samples with increasing chitosan concentration was found. An increase in Young’s modulus and compressive strength was observed with increasing gelatin concentration. The highest compressive strength reached 101.6 Pa. The MTT assay showed that the ternary blends scaffolds P3 and P4 supported cell viability better than the binary blend scaffold. Therefore, these results illustrated that ternary blends scaffolds P3 and P4 could provide a better environment for BRIN-BD11 cell proliferation.

Abstract
Thermosensitive hydrogels could function as scaffolds and delivery vehicle of natural flavonoids. The current study aimed to investigate effects of chitosan/collagen ratios on properties of thermosensitive beta-glycerophosphate (bGP) chitosan/collagen hydrogels as delivery vehicle of quercetin and then examined effects of quercetin-hydrogels on growth and cell viability of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs). Microstructure and physical, mechanical and antioxidant properties and quercetin release profiles of the hydrogels were investigated. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray powder diffraction analyses were performed to examine gelation process of the hydrogels. Antioxidant assays were conducted to measure antioxidant capacity of quercetin-hydrogels. It was found that bGP-chitosan/collagen hydrogels exhibited porous structures with interconnected pore architecture and could sustain quercetin release. Chitosan content improved well defined porous structure, increased porosity of the hydrogels and decreased releasing rate of quercetin from the hydrogels. The quercetin-bGP-2:1 (wt/wt) chitosan/collagen hydrogels exhibited antioxidant capacity and were able to promote growth of hPDLSCs in a dose dependent manner. In conclusion, the thermosensitive quercetin-bGP-2:1 (wt/wt) chitosan/collagen hydrogel demonstrated optimal properties of scaffolds for bone tissue engineering and sustained release of natural flavonoids. Incorporating quercetin in the chitosan/collagen hydrogel enhanced bioactive microenvironment that supported stem cell encapsulation.

Abstract
Additive manufacturing (AM), or 3D printing, of bioceramic scaffolds promises personalized treatment options for patients with site-specific designability for repair and reconstruction of bone defects. Although the theory for creating these complex geometries has already been made possible through AM's advancement, such shapes' manufacturability is difficult due to printing with ceramics' inherent complexities. Ceramics have the added challenge of being highly brittle, poor handleability of green (pre-sintered) parts, making complex shape high strength parts challenging to manufacture. This has led to a significant literature gap regarding the feasibility of creating bioceramic scaffolds with unique architectures that can be used in site-specific, individualized patient treatment. This work aims to successfully create complex topographical surfaces of cylindrical bone-like scaffolds to understand the correlation of increasing the scaffold surface area on mechanical properties and in vitro osteoblast cell proliferation. An increase in osteoblast cell proliferation and facilitation in cellular attachment can ultimately lead to improved bone healing. This work explores the printing parameters within an Innovent+® ExOne binder jet 3D printer to produce scaffold designs from synthesized tricalcium phosphate powder. Mechanical testing reveals the designed structures enhance scaffold compressive strength by 30% compared to control dense cylindrical scaffolds. Osteoblast cell proliferation is also increased due to changes in surface topography with a nearly 2-fold increase. Our work incorporates macro-level topographical changes to increase surface area, which is another avenue that could be combined with other scaffold features such as porosity. Results show bulk surface topography modifications via 3D printing can increase surface area to support enhanced biological response without compromising mechanical properties. This discovery may enable a future generation of porous scaffolds with external structures for further progress towards proper defect-specific synthetic bone grafts.

Abstract
In the present study, an inorganic matrix of beta-tricalcium phosphate (bTCP) nanoparticles and quercetin was incorporated into an organic matrix of 2:1 (w/w) chitosan/collagen composite to fabricate thermosensitive bTCP-chitosan/collagen-quercetin hydrogels. A sol-gel transition of the hydrogels was stimulated by beta-glycerophosphate (bGP) and temperature changes at physiological temperature and pH levels. Thereafter, the effects of 1%-3% (w/v) bTCP on properties of the bTCP-bGP-2:1 (w/w) chitosan/collagen hydrogels were investigated. Notably, the incorporation of 1%-3% (w/v) bTCP in the hydrogels did not interfere with the gelation process and time of the hydrogels at physiological temperature and pH levels. The bTCP-hydrogels exhibited a porous structure, interconnecting pore architecture, and median pore size of 100-200 μm. The incorporation of 3% bTCP increased the mechanical strength but decreased the swelling and degradation rates, pore size, permeability, and quercetin release rate of the hydrogels. The hydrogels were noncytotoxic and able to support cell encapsulation. A sustained quercetin release profile of the 3% bTCP-hydrogel further suggested the applicability of the hydrogel as a delivery vehicle of natural flavonoids for bone regeneration.

Abstract
This review provides a report on cross-linking methods used for collagen modifications. Collagen materials have attracted significant academic interest due to its biological properties in native state. However, in many cases the mechanical properties and degradation rate should be tailored to especial biomedical and cosmetic applications. In the proposed review paper, the structure, preparation, and properties of several collagen based materials have been discussed in general, and detailed examples of collagen cross-linking methods have been drawn from scientific literature and practical work. Both, physical and chemical methods of improvement of collagenous materials have been reviewed. In the review paper the cross-linking with glutaraldehyde, genipin, EDC-NHS, dialdehyde starch, chitosan, temperature, UV light and enzyme has been discussed. A critical comparison of currently available cross-linking methods has been shown.

Abstract
PURPOSE Aseptic loosening is a major complication after total joint replacement. Reactive oxygen species generated by local tissue cells and liberated from implant surfaces have been suggested to cause implant failures. Surface modification of titanium (Ti)-based implants with proanthocyanidins (PAC) is a promising approach for the development of anti-oxidant defense mechanism to supplement the mechanical functions of Ti implants. In this study, a controlled PAC release system was fabricated on the surface of Ti substrates using the layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly. MATERIALS AND METHODS Polyethyleneimine (PEI) base layer was fabricated to enable layer-by-layer (LBL) deposition of hyaluronic acid/chitosan (HA/CS) multi-layers without or with the PAC. Surface topography and wettability of the fabricated HA/CS-PAC substrates were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and contact angle measurement. PAC release profiles were investigated using drug release assays. MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblast cells were used to assess the osteo-inductive effects of HA/CS-PAC substrates under conditions H2O2-induced oxidative stress in vitro. A rat model of femoral intramedullary implantation evaluated the osseo-integration and osteo-inductive potential of the HA/CS-PAC coated Ti implants in vivo. RESULTS SEM, AFM, FTIR and contact angle measurements verified the successful fabrication of Ti surfaces with multi-layered HA/CS-PAC coating. Drug release assays revealed controlled and sustained release of PAC over 14 days. In vitro, cell-based assays showed high tolerability and enhanced the osteogenic potential of MC3T3-E1 cells on HA/CS-PAC substrates when under conditions of H2O2-induced oxidative stress. In vivo evaluation of femoral bone 14 days after femoral intramedullary implantation confirmed the enhanced osteo-inductive potential of the HA/CS-PAC coated Ti implants. CONCLUSION Multi-layering of HA/CS-PAC coating onto Ti-based surfaces by the LBL deposition significantly enhances implant osseo-integration and promotes osteogenesis under conditions of oxidative stress. This study provides new insights for future applications in the field of joint arthroplasty.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to produce nanoparticles of chitosan (CS), poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), and silver and investigate the optimal composite ratio of these three materials for periodontal tissue regeneration. Methods PLGA nanoparticles (nPLGA), CS nanoparticles (nCS), and silver nanoparticles (nAg) were prepared. The antibacterial properties of single nanoparticles and their effects on the proliferation and mineralization of periodontal membrane cells were investigated. Different ratios of nPLGA and nCS were combined, the proliferation and mineralization of periodontal membrane cells were investigated, and based on the results, the optimal ratio was determined. Finally, nPLGA and nCS in optimal ratio were combined with nAg, and the effects of the complex of these three materials on the proliferation and mineralization of periodontal membrane cells were investigated and tested in animals. Results The single nanoparticles were found to have no cytotoxicity and were able to promote cell mineralization. nCS and nAg in low concentrations showed antibacterial activity; however, nAg inhibited cell proliferation. The nPLGA and nCS complex in 3:7 ratio contributed to cell mineralization and had no cytotoxicity. nPLGA/nCS/nAg complex, which had the optimal proportion of the three materials, showed no cytotoxicity and contributed to cell mineralization. Conclusion nPLGA/nCS/nAg complex had no cytotoxicity and contributed to cell mineralization. The 3:7 ratio of nPLGA/nCS and 50 µg/mL nAg were found as the optimal proportion of the three materials.

Abstract
In this study, lyophilized advanced platelet rich fibrin (A-PRF) was used in combination with collagen-chitosan membrane for the first time to combine advantages of both collagen and A-PRF membranes. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to design the experimental condition and to correlate the effects of parameters, including chitosan/collagen (chit/col) weight ratio and A-PRF concentration on Young's modulus, mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) viability and degradation rate of the membranes. Results showed that Young's modulus of the membranes was intensified by increasing chit/col weight ratio and decreasing A-PRF concentration from 3 to 8 MPa. Cell viability of MSCs was improved by both increasing chit/col weight ratio and A-PRF concentration. Moreover, as chit/col weight ratio increased from 0 to 4 and A-PRF concentration decreased from 5 to 0, degradation rate of the membranes decreased from 90 to 20% after four weeks incubation. Finally, based on Design Expert Software calculation for minimizing the degradation rate and maximizing both Young's modulus and cell viability, the values of chit/col weight ratio and A-PRF concentration were suggested to be 4 and 0.58 mg/ml, respectively. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity analysis showed that the addition of A-PRF caused higher osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
To endow orthopaedic implants with satisfactory antibacterial properties, the design and development of antibiotic coating on the surface of implants is highly desired. In this work a novel and facile strategy was developed to form pH-responsive layer-by-layer (LbL) films implanted with polymeric micelles as nano-vehicles loaded with charge-weak antibiotic drugs, enabling high drug loading efficiency. Negatively charged tobramycin (Tob)-embeded heparin miscells (HET) and positively charged chitosan (CHT) were exploited as a pH-responsive LBL multilayer building block, respectively. The formation mechanism and pH-stimulated release behavior of the Tob-contained heparin micelles were studied. The characterization on the morphologies, chemical compositions and hydrophilicity of the modified surface confirmed the successuful deposition of the Tob-loaded CHT/HET multilayers coatings on the polydopamine-modified Ti surface. The drug release profiles displayed fast release at pH 7.4 and slow release after exposure to weakly acidic environments. Antibacterial tests indicated that the Tob-embed CHT/HET nanostructured multilayers not only strongly inhibited initial bacterial adhesion, but also disruptted biofilm formation. Particularly, this functional coatings showed "long-term antibacterial" pattern in acid condition. Meanwhile, MC3T3 cells showed acceptable adhesion, spread and proliferation on the multilayer coatings in cytocompatible studies. In a word, these multilayer coatings incorporated with a wide variety of antibiotics show promisiong applications in preventing postoperative infection and resolving unmet clinical need.

Abstract
Exposing human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) to animal proteins during cell expansion would compromise quality and safety of the hPDLSCs for clinical applications. The current study aimed to evaluate the replacement of animal-based serum by human serum for the expansion of hPDLSCs. hPDLSCs were cultured in culture media supplemented with four types of serums: Group A: fetal bovine serum (FBS); Group B: allogeneic human male AB serum (HS); Group C: in-house autologous (Auto-HS); and Group D: in-house allogeneic human serums (Allo-HS). Exhibitions of mesenchymal stem cell characteristics of hPDLSCs were examined. Then, growth and osteogenic (OS) differentiation potential of hPDLSCs in FBS and HS at passages 5 and 15 were compared to investigate the effects of serum supplements on growth and expansion stability of the expanded hPDLSCs. After that, growth and OS differentiation of hPDLSCs in Auto- and Allo-HS were investigated. Flow cytometrical analyses, functional differentiations, cell growth kinetic, cytogenetic analysis, alkaline phosphatase and calcium content assays, and oil red O and von Kossa staining were performed. Results showed that at passage 5, HS promoted growth and OS differentiation of hPDLSCs and extensive cell expansion, decreased growth and differentiation potential of the expanded hPDLSCs, particularly in HS. Growth and OS differentiation of hPDLSCs in Auto-HS and Allo-HS were not different. In summary, allogeneic human serum could be a replacement to FBS for hPDLSC expansion. In vitro cell expansion of hPDLSCs should be minimal to ensure optimal cell quality. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
Three-dimensional nanofibrous scaffolds that morphologically mimic natural extracellular matrices hold great promises in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine due to their increased cell attachment and differentiation compared with block structure. In this work, for the first time, three-dimensional porous nanofibrous 58S bioglass scaffolds have been fabricated using a sacrificial template method. During the process, a natural three-dimensional nanofibrous bacterial cellulose was used as the sacrificial template on which precursor 58S glass was deposited via a sol-gel route. SEM and TEM results verify that the as-prepared 58S scaffolds can inherit the three-dimensional nanofibrous feature of bacterial cellulose. Pore structure characterizations by nitrogen adsorption-desorption and mercury intrusion porosimetry demonstrate that the 58S scaffolds are highly porous with a porosity of 75.1% and contain both mesopores (39.4 nm) and macropores (60 µm) as well as large BET surface area (127.4 m2 g-1). In vitro cell studies suggest that the 58S scaffold is bioactive and biocompatible with primary mouse osteoblast cells, suggesting that the nanofibrous structure of 58S is able to provide an appropriate environment for cellular functioning. These results strongly suggest that the three-dimensional nanofibrous 58S scaffold has great potential for application in bone tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Currently, culture and growth keratinocytes are important stages in achieving a reliable and reproducible skin tissue. In the present study, two different methods, enzymatic and explant methods, for keratinocytes isolation from human foreskin were compared. Foreskins were cut into 2-3 mm pieces and placed in trypsin at 4°C overnight for separation of the epidermis from the dermis. Subsequently, these samples were divided into two groups: i) Keratinocytes separated from the epidermis by trypsin and ii) by the explant method. These keratinocytes were divided into two groups: i) With no feeder layer and ii) onto a type I collagen scaffold. The cells were evaluated using immunocytochemistry and 4',6-diamidine-2'-phenylindole dihydrochloride (DAPI) staining. In the enzymatic treatment, after 7-10 days no attached cells were found in the cell culture dishes. In the explant method, keratinocytes were separated after ~24 h, attached rapidly and formed big colonies into a collagen scaffold. In the absence of a feeder layer, small colonies were developed with rapid loss of proliferation within 2-3 days. Keratinocytes showed positive immunoreactivity for the pan-cytokeratin marker and keratinocytes' nuclei were clearly observed. This method could be applied and developed as a component of skin substitutes to treat burns and wounds and also in laboratory testing.

Abstract
The porous structure of collagen-based matrices enables the infiltration of cells both in in vitro and clinical applications. Reconstituted porous collagen matrices often collapse when they are in contact with aqueous solutions; however, the mechanism for the collapse of the pores is not understood. We, therefore, investigated the interactions between the collagen matrix and different solutions, and discuss the mechanisms for the change in microstructure of the matrix on immersing it in solution. When a dried collagen matrix was immersed in aqueous solutions, the matrix shrunk and pores close to the surface closed. The shrinkage ratio and thickness of the compact microstructure close to the superficial area decreased with increasing ethanol content in the solution. The original porous structure of the collagen matrix was preserved when the matrix was immersed in absolute ethanol. The shrinkage of a porous collagen matrix in contact with aqueous solutions was attributed to the liquid/gas interfacial tension. The average pore diameter of the matrix also significantly affected the shrinkage of the matrix. The shrinkage of the matrix, explained using the Young-Laplace equation, was found to result from the pressure drop, and especially in the pores located superficially, leading to the collapse of the matrix microstructure. The integrity of the porous microstructure allows better penetration of cells in medical applications. The numbers of NIH/3T3 fibroblasts penetrated through the hydrated Col/PBS porous collagen matrices pre-immersed in absolute ethanol with subsequent water and DMEM culture medium replacements were significantly higher than those through matrices hydrated directly in DMEM.

Abstract
Carbonate apatite-chitosan scaffolds (CA-ChSs) were fabricated using the lyophilization technique. It was found that ChSs prepared with 200 mg chitosan powder (ChSs200) had well-structured three-dimensional architecture with high porosity and good retentive form without brittleness. In addition, it was shown that the number of osteoblast-like cells MC3T3-E1 proliferated on desalinated ChSs200 was larger than that on the non-desalinated ChSs200. CA-ChSs were fabricated by adding 100 mg carbonate apatite (CA) to 200 mg chitosan gels followed by freeze-drying (CA100ChSs200). SEM observation revealed that CA100ChSs200 had favorable three- dimensional porous structures. The number of living cells increased more rapidly on CA100ChSs200 prepared with different amounts of CA than on ChSs. ALP activity significantly increased after day 14 and reached a plateau after day 21 in ChSs200 and CA100ChSs200. It was concluded that newly developed CA100ChSs200 may be a possible scaffold material for tissue engineering.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to make a histomorphometric evaluation of the osteogenic potential of anionic collagen matrix as scaffolds; either crosslinked in glutaraldehyde or not cross-linked and, implanted in critical bone defects in rat calvaria. Seventy-two rats were randomly distributed in three groups: anionic collagen scaffolds treated for 24 h of selective hydrolysis (ACSH); anionic collagen scaffolds treated for 24 h of selective hydrolysis and 5 min of crosslinking in glutaraldehyde 0.05% (ACSHGA); empty bone defect (Control), evaluated at the biological points of 15, 45, 90 and 120 days. The results showed that the biomaterials implanted were biocompatible and showed a high osteogenic potential. These biomaterials presented a speed of biodegradation compatible with bone neoformation, which was shown to be associated with angiogenesis inside the scaffolds at all biological points. The percentage of mineralization of ACSH (87%) differed statistically from that found in ACSHGA (66%). It was concluded that the regeneration of critical bone defect was more evident in anionic collagen without crosslinking (ACSH).

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of the present study was to compare a newly developed chitosan-collagen membrane (CCM) with a standard collagen membrane (SCM) regarding their effects on guided bone regeneration. MATERIALS AND METHODS The right mandibular premolars and first molar were extracted from 12 beagle dogs. Four months later, acute buccal dehiscence-type defects (4 × 3 mm in height and width) were surgically created after implant site preparation. The defects were randomly assigned to 4 different groups: CCM-1 (weight ratio of chitosan to collagen of 40:1), CCM-2 (weight ratio of chitosan to collagen of 20:1), SCM, and vehicle control. The dogs were sacrificed after 4, 8, and 12 weeks of healing for radiographic examination, histologic observation, and histometric analysis. RESULTS The membrane-treated sites showed more bone formation than the control sites, although no statistically significant differences were found between the membrane-treated sites and the control sites for new bone-to-implant contact and new bone-filled area at any point. At 8 weeks, the new bone height for the membrane-treated sites was significantly greater statistically than that of the untreated group (P < .05). At 12 weeks, the CCM-1 group showed significantly greater new bone height (1.91 ± 0.25 mm) than the untreated group (1.20 ± 0.34 mm; P < .05). However, the CCMs did not show any statistically significant differences compared with the SCMs for any assessed parameter. CONCLUSIONS The results of the present study have shown that the developed CCMs can enhance bone regeneration and could be a candidate for use in guided bone regeneration.

Abstract
Modular assembly of protein-polysaccharide microenvironments into 3D macroscale tissue constructs is reported. Rapid and simple centrifugation and vacuum molding methods are used to create cohesive multiphase constructs with prescribed geometries. Human fibroblasts are shown to survive in the microenvironments and in the macroscale constructs. Control of the spatial organization in engineered tissues is a key to recreating the complex tissue architectures needed for regenerative therapies.

Abstract
The modification of human cancellous bone (hBONE) with silk fibroin/gelatin (SF/G) using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC)/N-hydroxysuccini-mide (NHS) crosslinking was established. The SF/G solutions at a weight ratio of 50/50 and the solution concentrations of 1, 2, and 4 wt % were studied. SF/G sub-matrix was formed on the surface and inside pore structure of hBONE. All hBONE scaffolds modified with SF/G showed smaller pore sizes, less porosity, and slightly lower compressive modulus than unmodified hBONE. SF/G sub-matrix was gradually biodegraded in collagenase solution along 4 days. The hBONE scaffolds modified with SF/G, particularly at 2 and 4 wt % solution concentrations, promoted attachment, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), comparing to the original hBONE. The highest cell number, ALP activity and calcium production were observed for MSC cultured on the hBONE scaffolds modified with 4 wt % SF/G. The mineralization was also remarkably induced in the cases of modified hBONE scaffolds as observed from the deposited calcium phosphate by EDS. The modification of hBONE with SF/G was, therefore, the promising method to enhance the osteoconductive potential of human bone graft for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
In this study, the surface modification of silk fibroin (SF) scaffolds with gelatin/chitooligosaccharide (G/COS) blends using the reaction of glutaraldehyde (GA) was established. The effects of G/COS mixing ratio (100/0, 90/10, 80/20, and 70/30) and GA crosslinking concentration (0.05, 0.10, 0.15, and 0.20 vol %) on the properties of scaffolds were investigated. At 0.10-0.20 vol % GA, all G/COS blends could be successfully conjugated on the SF scaffolds, as confirmed by the percentage of weight increased and the presence of functional groups indicating SF, G, and COS from FTIR spectra. Pore size of SF scaffolds was around 570 μm with 92% porosity, however, the G/COS-conjugated SF scaffolds showed thickened pore's wall, smaller pore size (∼184-275 μm) and less porosity (∼81%), but increased density. This modified structure subsequently improved the compressive modulus of the G/COS-conjugated SF scaffolds. In terms of biological properties, the gelatin-conjugated SF scaffolds promoted the attachment and proliferation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) rather than the other scaffolds. However, the G/COS-conjugated SF scaffolds, particularly at the ratio of 70/30, promoted the osteogenic differentiation of MSC comparing to the SF scaffold, as confirmed by the production of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and calcium (Ca), and the deposition of calcium phosphate (CaP). It was concluded that the G/COS-conjugated SF scaffolds showed great mechanical properties due to the β-structure of silk fibroin, as well as the enhanced biological properties due to the G/COS blends.

Abstract
The reconstruction of segmental bone defects remains an urgent problem in the orthopaedic field, and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) is known for its potent osteoinductive properties in bone regeneration. In this study, chitosan microspheres (CMs) were prepared and combined with absorbable collagen sponge to maintain controlled-release recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). The rhBMP-2-loaded composite scaffolds were implanted into 15 mm radius defects of rabbits and the bone-repair ability was evaluated systematically. CMs were spherical in shape and had a polyporous surface, according to SEM images. The complex scaffold exhibited an ideal releasing profile in vitro. The micro-computed tomographic analysis revealed that the rhBMP-2-loaded composite scaffold not only bridged the defects as early as 4 weeks, but also healed the defects and presented recanalization of the bone-marrow cavity at 12 weeks. These results were confirmed by x-ray. When compared with other control groups, the composite scaffold group remarkably enhanced new bone formation and mechanical properties, as evidenced by bone mineral content evaluation, histological observations and biomechanical testing. Moreover, the biocompatibility and appropriate degradation of the composite scaffold could be obtained. All of these results clearly demonstrated that the composite scaffold is a promising carrier of BMP-2 for the treatment of segmental bone defects.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine the nano and micro mechanical properties for uncross-linked and cross-linked chitosan films. Specifically, we looked at nanoindentation hardness, microhardness, and elastic modulus. It is important to study the nano and microscale mechanical properties of chitosan since chitosan has been widely used for biomedical applications. Using the solvent-cast method, the chitosan films were prepared at room temperature on the cleaned glass plates. The chitosan solution was prepared by dissolving chitosan in acetic acid 1% (v/v). Tripolyphosphate (TPP) was used to create the cross-links between amine groups in chitosan and phosphate groups in TPP. In this study, atomic force microscopy was used to measure the nanoindentation hardness and surface topography of the uncross-linked and cross-linked chitosan films. Elastic modulus was then calculated from the nanoindentation results. The effective elastic modulus was determined by microhardness with some modifications to previous theories. The microhardness of the chitosan films were measured using Vicker's hardness meter under three different loads. Our results show that the microhardness and elastic modulus for cross-linked chitosan films are higher than the uncross-linked films. However, the cross-linked chitosan films show increased brittleness when compared to uncross-linked films. By increasing the load magnitude, the microhardness increases for both uncross-linked and cross-linked chitosan films.

Abstract
Metals are widely used in engineering as well as medical applications. However, their surfaces are easily colonized by bacteria that form biofilms. Among the numerous concerns with biofilm formation, biocorrosion is of particular importance in industry, because structural integrity may be compromised, leading to technical failures. In the food industry and medical field, biofilms also pose health risks. To inhibit bacterial colonization, the surfaces of metals can be coated with a polymeric layer which is antiadhesive and/or bactericidal. This article describes polymers that have these desired properties and the methodologies for immobilizing them on metal surfaces of relevance to the marine and medical fields. The focus is on polymer coatings that have a high degree of stability in aqueous medium and do not leach out. The efficacies of the different polymer coatings against bacteria commonly encountered in marine (Desulfovibrio desulfuricans) and medical applications (Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Escherichia coli) are demonstrated.

Effects of autogenous growth factors on heterotopic bone formation of osteogenic cells in small animal model. J Craniomaxillofac Surg 2011; 40:332-40. [PMID: 21724408 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcms.2011.05.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2010] [Revised: 05/18/2011] [Accepted: 05/19/2011] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS This study used a new approach to investigate the effective concentrations of growth factors released from platelet concentrate (PC) on the bone formation capacity of osteogenically differentiated rat bone marrow stromal cells (rBMSCs). MATERIALS AND METHODS Rat BMSCs and whole blood were harvested from 40 adult male Spraque-Dawly rats. Rat BMSCs were expanded in an osteogenic medium and seeded on inert collagenous bovine bone matrix (ICBM). Growth factors released from degranulated PC (GFs) containing TGF-β1 1 (25ng/ml)-10ng (250ng/ml) and rhBMP-2 400ng (10μg/ml) were suspended in 40μl platelet poor plasma (PPP) and applied on the ICBM-rBMSC constructs or ICBM only, respectively. The constructs were then transplanted in autologous hosts for 4 weeks. Concurrently, osteoblastic differentiation of rBMSCs on ICBM-rBMSC-PPP constructs was characterized in vitro. RESULTS Rat BMSCs in osteogenic medium exhibited phenotypes of mature osteoblasts. The amount of newly formed bone among groups of ICBM-rBMSC-PPP with and without GFs was not significantly different (p>0.05) and was significantly lower than a group of ICBM-PPP-BMP-2 (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Autogenous GFs had no effect on the capacity of rBMSCs to form new bone. The ability to measure the bone formation capacity of transplanted autologous cells and growth factors in a small animal model was demonstrated.

Abstract
Chitosan and collagen are natural biomaterials that have been used extensively in tissue engineering, both separately and as composite materials. Most methods to fabricate chitosan/collagen composites use freeze drying and chemical crosslinking to create stable porous scaffolds, which subsequently can be seeded with cells. In this study, we directly embedded human bone marrow stem cells (hBMSC) in chitosan/collagen materials by initiating gelation using β-glycerophosphate at physiological temperature and pH. We further examined the use of glyoxal, a dialdehyde with relatively low toxicity, to crosslink these materials and characterized the resulting changes in matrix and cell properties. The cytocompatibility of glyoxal and the crosslinked gels were investigated in terms of hBMSC metabolic activity, viability, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation. These studies revealed that glyoxal was cytocompatible at concentrations below about 1mM for periods of exposure up to 15 h, though the degree of cell spreading and proliferation were dependent on matrix composition. Glyoxal-crosslinked matrices were stiffer and compacted less than uncrosslinked controls. It was further demonstrated that hBMSC can attach and proliferate in three-dimensional matrices composed of 50/50 chitosan/collagen, and that these materials supported osteogenic differentiation in response to stimulation. Such glyoxal-crosslinked chitosan/collagen composite materials may find utility as cell delivery vehicles for enhancing the repair of bone defects.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) function on novel type hybrid organic/inorganic microparticles (MPs) for application to bone regeneration. The MPs were based on chitosan (CS) and consisted of inorganic components, such as dibasic calcium phosphate (CaHPO(4)) or calcium carbonate (CaCO(3)). The MPs were crosslinked using tripolyphosphate. Four types of hybrid MPs were fabricated: CS; CS-10% CaHPO(4); CS-20% CaHPO(4); and CS-10% CaCO(3). The MSCs were attached to all the types of MPs at day 1 and started to spread and proliferate further by days 2 and 7, as analysed by fluorescence microcopy. Cell proliferation was measured at days 7, 14, 21 and 28 by counting the cells attached on the MPs. The number of proliferated cells increased significantly for all types of MPs as time increased. MSC differentiation was analysed using osteoblast (OB) phenotype markers, including alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP), collagen I (COLLI) and osteocalcin (OCN) at days 7, 14, 21 and 28, using quantitative real-time PCR. The normalized mRNA expression of ALP for all MPs was observed only at day 7. The normalized mRNA expression of COLLI and OCN was significantly increased for all types of hybrid MPs at each time point compared to the control samples. Collectively, our results proved that hybrid organic/inorganic MPs were non-cytotoxic and supported MSC attachment, spreading, proliferation and differentiation into the OB phenotype. These hybrid MPs have great potential for application as bone-void fillers or bone tissue engineering scaffolds in bone regeneration.

Association of collagen with calcium phosphate promoted osteogenic responses of osteoblast-like MG63 cells. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2010; 83:245-53. [PMID: 21177080 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2010.11.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2010] [Revised: 10/12/2010] [Accepted: 11/18/2010] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
In this investigation, the effects of the association of the collagen (COLL) molecules with the calcium phosphate (CaP) film were examined with respect to both the physicochemical properties of the CaP films and the osteoblast responses, such as the adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization. The COLL pre-adsorbed CaP film (CaPA) exhibited significant changes in the surface morphology compared to the COLL incorporated CaP film (CaPC). The adhesions of the osteoblast-like MG63 cells were similar on the CaPC or CaPA films. However, the proliferation of the MG63 cells on CaPC was comparable to CaP but considerably different than CaPA. The differentiation of the MG63 cells was greatly improved on CaPC and CaPA compared to CaP and more pronounced on CaPA. The presence of COLL within or on the CaP films significantly modulated the expression of the phenotypic genes, including osteopontin (OPN), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). The expression patterns of these genes elucidated that COLL that was present within or on the CaP film supported the osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. These positive effects were stronger for CaPA than CaPC. The bone-like nodules formed on all of the specimens. However, the mineralization of CaPC and CaPA was significantly higher than CaP, indicating that the association of CaP with COLL promoted the mineral deposition. Therefore, the association of the COLL molecules with the CaP film induced positive effects on the biomineralization. Overall, the incorporation of COLL efficiently enhanced the osteoblast responses of CaP. This system can be utilized in a drug delivery system using calcium phosphate. Although the incorporation effects were slightly higher for the osteoblast responses of CaPA than CaPC, CaPC can be used when the longer drug release times are desirable.
