Enriched mesoporous bioactive glass scaffolds as bone substitutes in critical diaphyseal bone defects in rabbits. Acta Biomater 2024; 180:104-114. [PMID: 38583750 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.04.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 03/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/09/2024]
Abstract
In the field of orthopedic surgery, there is an increasing need for the development of bone replacement materials for the treatment of bone defects. One of the main focuses of biomaterials engineering are advanced bioceramics like mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBG´s). The present study compared the new bone formation after 12 weeks of implantation of MBG scaffolds with composition 82,5SiO2-10CaO-5P2O5-x 2.5SrO alone (MBGA), enriched with osteostatin, an osteoinductive peptide, (MBGO) or enriched with bone marrow aspirate (MBGB) in a long bone critical defect in radius bone of adult New Zealand rabbits. New bone formation from the MBG scaffold groups was compared to the gold standard defect filled with iliac crest autograft and to the unfilled defect. Radiographic follow-up was performed at 2, 6, and 12 weeks, and microCT and histologic examination were performed at 12 weeks. X-Ray study showed the highest bone formation scores in the group with the defect filled with autograft, followed by the MBGB group, in addition, the microCT study showed that bone within defect scores (BV/TV) were higher in the MBGO group. This difference could be explained by the higher density of newly formed bone in the osteostatin enriched MBG scaffold group. Therefore, MBG scaffold alone and enriched with osteostatin or bone marrow aspirate increase bone formation compared to defect unfilled, being higher in the osteostatin group. The present results showed the potential to treat critical bone defects by combining MBGs with osteogenic peptides such as osteostatin, with good prospects for translation into clinical practice. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Treatment of bone defects without the capacity for self-repair is a global problem in the field of Orthopedic Surgery, as evidenced by the fact that in the U.S alone it affects approximately 100,000 patients per year. The gold standard of treatment in these cases is the autograft, but its use has limitations both in the amount of graft to be obtained and in the morbidity produced in the donor site. In the field of materials engineering, there is a growing interest in the development of a bone substitute equivalent. Mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG´s) scaffolds with three-dimensional architecture have shown great potential for use as a bone substitutes. The osteostatin-enriched Sr-MBG used in this long bone defect in rabbit radius bone in vivo study showed an increase in bone formation close to autograft, which makes us think that it may be an option to consider as bone substitute.

Abstract
Mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs), which belong to the category of modern porous nanomaterials, have garnered significant attention due to their impressive biological activities, appealing physicochemical properties, and desirable morphological features. They hold immense potential for utilization in diverse fields, including adsorption, separation, catalysis, bioengineering, and medicine. Despite possessing interior porous structures, excellent morphological characteristics, and superior biocompatibility, primitive MBGs face challenges related to weak encapsulation efficiency, drug loading, and mechanical strength when applied in biomedical fields. It is important to note that the advantageous attributes of MBGs can be effectively preserved by incorporating supramolecular assemblies, miscellaneous metal species, and their conjugates into the material surfaces or intrinsic mesoporous networks. The innovative advancements in these modified colloidal inorganic nanocarriers inspire researchers to explore novel applications, such as stimuli-responsive drug delivery, with exceptional in-vivo performances. In view of the above, we outline the fabrication process of calcium-silicon-phosphorus based MBGs, followed by discussions on their significant progress in various engineered strategies involving surface functionalization, nanostructures, and network modification. Furthermore, we emphasize the recent advancements in the textural and physicochemical properties of MBGs, along with their theranostic potentials in multiple cancerous and non-cancerous diseases. Lastly, we recapitulate compelling viewpoints, with specific considerations given from bench to bedside.

Correlating the Effect of Composition and Textural Properties on Bioactivity for Pristine and Copper-Doped Binary Mesoporous Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:6690. [PMID: 37895672 PMCID: PMC10608725 DOI: 10.3390/ma16206690] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Revised: 10/09/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023]
Abstract
Multifunctional substitutes for bone tissue engineering have gained significant interest in recent years in the aim to address the clinical challenge of treating large bone defects resulting from surgical procedures. Sol-gel mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs) have emerged as a promising solution due to their high reactivity and versatility. The effect of calcium content on MBGNs textural properties is well known. However, the relationship between their composition, textural properties, and reactivity has not yet been thoroughly discussed in existing studies, leading to divergent conclusions. In this study, pristine and copper-doped binary MGBNs were synthesized by a modified Stöber method, using a cationic surfactant as pore-templating agent. An opposite evolution between calcium content (12-26 wt%) and specific surface area (909-208 m2/g) was evidenced, while copper introduction (8.8 wt%) did not strongly affect the textural properties. In vitro bioactivity assessments conducted in simulated body fluid (SBF) revealed that the kinetics of hydroxyapatite (HAp) crystallization are mainly influenced by the specific surface area, while the composition primarily controls the quantity of calcium phosphate produced. The MBGNs exhibited a good bioactivity within 3 h, while Cu-MBGNs showed HAp crystallization after 48 h, along with a controlled copper release (up to 84 ppm at a concentration of 1 mg/mL). This comprehensive understanding of the interplay between composition, textural properties, and bioactivity, offers insights for the design of tailored MBGNs for bone tissue regeneration with additional biological and antibacterial effects.

Abstract
AIM Compare bone formation capacity in vivo of two types of biomaterials designed as bone substitutes with respect to iliac crest autograft, one based on carbonate hydroxyapatites and the other one on bioactive mesoporous glass. MATERIALS AND METHODS Experimental study consisting on 14 adult female New Zeland rabbits where a critical defect was made in the rabbit radius bone. The sample was divided into four groups: defect without material, with iliac crest autograft, with carbonatehydroxyapatite support, and with bioactive mesoporous glass support. Serial X-ray studies were carried out at 2, 4, 6 and 12 weeks and a microCT study at euthanasia at 6 and 12 weeks. RESULTS In the X-ray study, autograft group showed the highest bone formation scores. Both groups of biomaterials presented bone formation similar and greater than the defect without material, but always less than in the autograft group. The results of the microCT study showed the largest bone volume in the study area in the autograft group. The groups with bone substitutes presented greater bone volume than the group without material but always less than in the autograft group. CONCLUSION Both supports seem to promote bone formation but are not capable of reproducing the characteristics of autograft. Due to their different macroscopic characteristics, each one could be suitable for a different type of defect.

Abstract
The use of nanoparticles is crucial for the development of a new generation of nanodevices for clinical applications. Silica-based nanoparticles can be tailored with a wide range of functional biopolymers with unique physicochemical properties thus providing several advantages: (1) limitation of interparticle interaction, (2) preservation of cargo and particle integrity, (3) reduction of immune response, (4) additional therapeutic effects and (5) cell targeting. Therefore, the engineering of advanced functional coatings is of utmost importance to enhance the biocompatibility of existing biomaterials. Herein we will focus on the most recent advances reported on the delivery and therapeutic use of silica-based nanoparticles containing biopolymers (proteins, nucleotides, and polysaccharides) with proven biological effects.

Abstract
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to create a new delivery system that can synergistically remineralize enamel white spot lesions (WSLs). Materials and methods: The delivery system (PAA-ACP@aMBG) was prepared by using aminated mesoporous bioactive glasses (aMBG) as the carrier loaded with polyacrylic-stabilized amorphous calcium phosphate (PAA-ACP). The materials were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), and so on. Forty-eight artificial WSLs enamel samples were randomized to four groups: artificial saliva (negative control, NC), casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP), PAA-ACP@aMBG, and MBG. The effects of demineralization and remineralization of the enamel surface were compared by means of surface microhardness (SMH) measurements, surface color change measurements, fluorescence microscopy (FM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results: There was no significant difference in the surface microhardness recovery rate (SMHRR) or color recovery rate (CRR) among the CPP-ACP group, PAA-ACP@aMBG group and MBG group (P>0.05), but these values were significantly higher than those in the NC group (p < 0.01). FM demonstrated that the remineralization depth in the PAA-ACP@aMBG group was significantly greater than that of the remaining three groups (p < 0.01). SEM analysis indicated that the enamel demineralization marks in the PAA-ACP@aMBG group, CPP-ACP group, and MBG group were obscured by mineral deposition. Conclusions: PAA-ACP@aMBG showed good mineralization properties, implying its great potential for clinical application.

Influence of Copper-Strontium Co-Doping on Bioactivity, Cytotoxicity and Antibacterial Activity of Mesoporous Bioactive Glass. Gels 2022; 8:743. [PMID: 36421565 PMCID: PMC9689600 DOI: 10.3390/gels8110743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2022] [Revised: 11/01/2022] [Accepted: 11/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) is an extensively studied biomaterial used for the healing of bone defects. Its biological applications can be tailored by introducing metallic ions, such as strontium (Sr) and copper (Cu), which can enhance its functionalities, including osteogenetic, angiogenetic and antibacterial functionalities. In this study, Cu and Sr ions were co-doped (ratio 1:1) with x = 0.5, 1 and 2 mol% each in glass with an intended nominal composition of 80SiO2-(15-2x)CaO-5P2O5-xCuO-xSrO and synthesized with an evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA)-based sol-gel technique. XRD confirmed the amorphous nature of the glass, while compositional analysis using ICP-OES confirmed the presence of dopant ions with the required amounts. A TEM study of the MBG powders showed fringes that corresponded to the formation of a highly ordered mesoporous structure. The Cu-Sr-doped MBG showed a positive effect on apatite formation when immersed in SBF, although the release of Cu and Sr ions was relatively slow for 1 mol% of each co-dopant, which signified a stable network structure in the glass. The impact of the Cu and Sr ions on the osteoblast-like cell line MG-63 was assessed. At the particle concentrations of 1 wt./vol.% or lower, the cell viability was above 50%. An antibacterial test was conducted against Gram-negative E. coli and Gram-positive S. aureus bacteria. With a sequential increase in the co-doped ion content in the glass, the zone of inhibition for bacteria increased. The results suggest that the doping of MBG with Cu and Sr ions at up to 2 mol% can result in tailored sustained release of ions to enhance the applicability of the studied glass as a functional biomaterial for bone regeneration applications.

Facile post modification synthesis of copper-doped mesoporous bioactive glass with high antibacterial performance to fight bone infection. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 144:213198. [PMID: 36424276 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2022.213198] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2022] [Revised: 10/24/2022] [Accepted: 11/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Successful treatment of infected bone defects caused by multi-drug resistant bacteria (MDR) has become a major clinical challenge, stressing the urgent need for effective antibacterial bone graft substitutes. Mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs), a rapidly emerging class of nanoscale biomaterials, offer specific advantages for the development of biomaterials to treat bone infection due to endowed antibacterial features. Herein, we propose a facile post-modification sol-gel strategy to synthesize effective antibacterial MBGNs doped with copper ions (Cu-PMMBGNs). In this strategy, amine functional groups as chelating agents were introduced to premade mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) which further facilitate the incorporation of high content of calcium (∼17 mol%) and copper ions (∼8 mol%) without compromising nanoparticle shape, mesoporosity, and homogeneity. The resulting nanoparticles were degradable and showed rapidly induce abundant deposition of apatite crystals on their surface upon soaking in simulated body fluids (SBF) after 3 days. Cu-PMMBGNs exhibited a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria, which are common pathogens causing severe bone infections. Most importantly, the nanoparticles containing 5 mol% copper ions at concentrations of 500 and 1000 μg.mL-1 showed highly effective antibacterial performance as reflected by a 99.9 % reduction of bacterial viability. Nanoparticles at a concentration of 500 μg.mL-1 showed no significant cytotoxicity toward preosteoblast cells (∼85-89 % cell viability) compared to the control group. In addition, the nanoscale properties of synthesized Cu-PMMBGNs (∼100 nm in size) facilitated their internalization into preosteoblast cells, which highlights their potential as intracellular carriers in combating intracellular bacteria. Therefore, these copper-doped nanoparticles hold strong promise for use as an antibacterial component in antibacterial bone substitutes such as hydrogels, nanocomposites, and coatings.

Abstract
Background Enhancing the bone healing procedure would resultantly improve the post-recovery life quality, as well as the speed with which the patient returns to their former life quality. Porous structures can provide a large surface area and abundant channels to facilitate mass transfer. Objective To evaluate the application of mesoporous materials in the bone healing of surgically created defects on the tibiae of male adult Wistar rats. Methods The defect areas were evaluated after implantation of 4 types of bioactive glass histopathologically and immunohistochemically. Fifty adult rats were divided into 5 groups including a control group without material. The used products were mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG), Cu-MBG, Zn-MBG, and Cu-Zn-MBG. Unicortical bone defects with a 3 mm diameter were performed in both tibiae of the animals and filled with 4 types of glass particles. The rats were then euthanized at 15 d and 30 d. Tibial samples were collected and the tissues forwarded for histological processing, and examined using light microscopy. Additionally, bone healing was evaluated by assessing the levels of bone morphogenetic protein BMP2, collagen 1, osteocalcin (OST), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) using immunohistochemical methods. Results Within the 15th day, all groups presented connective tissue septa; at the 30th day, the new bone formation was more intense in the Cu-Zn-MBG group. Additionally, BMP2, collagen 1, OST, and VEGF immune expression were more prominent in the Cu-Zn-MBG group. Conclusions The study results indicated that MBG may be used for the repairing of bone defects. Cu-Zn-MBG may be the best choice for this purpose.

Abstract
In search of new approaches to treat bone infection and prevent drug resistance development, a nanosystem based on hollow bioactive glass nanoparticles (HBGN) of composition 79.5SiO2-(18-x)CaO-2.5P2O5-xCuO (x = 0, 2.5 or 5 mol-% CuO) was developed. The objective of the study was to evaluate the capacity of the HBGN to be used as a nanocarrier of the broad-spectrum antibiotic danofloxacin and source of bactericidal Cu2+ ions. Core-shell nanoparticles with specific surface areas close to 800 m2/g and pore volumes around 1 cm3/g were obtained by using hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and poly(styrene)-block-poly(acrylic acid) (PS-b-PAA) as structure-directing agents. Flow cytometry studies showed the cytocompatibility of the nanoparticles in MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblastic cell cultures. Ion release studies confirmed the release of non-cytotoxic concentrations of Cu2+ ions within the therapeutic range. Moreover, it was shown that the inclusion of copper in the system resulted in a more gradual release of danofloxacin that was extended over one week. The bactericidal activity of the nanosystem was evaluated with E. coli and S. aureus strains. Nanoparticles with copper were not able to reduce bacterial viability by themselves and Cu-free HBGN failed to reduce bacterial growth, despite releasing higher antibiotic concentrations. However, HBGN enriched with copper and danofloxacin drastically reduced bacterial growth in sessile, planktonic and biofilm states, which was attributed to a synergistic effect between the action of Cu2+ ions and danofloxacin. Therefore, the nanosystem here investigated is a promising candidate as an alternative for the local treatment of bone infections.

Abstract
Modern biomedicine aims to develop integrated solutions that use medical, biotechnological, materials science, and engineering concepts to create functional alternatives for the specific, selective, and accurate management of medical conditions. In the particular case of tissue engineering, designing a model that simulates all tissue qualities and fulfills all tissue requirements is a continuous challenge in the field of bone regeneration. The therapeutic protocols used for bone healing applications are limited by the hierarchical nature and extensive vascularization of osseous tissue, especially in large bone lesions. In this regard, nanotechnology paves the way for a new era in bone treatment, repair and regeneration, by enabling the fabrication of complex nanostructures that are similar to those found in the natural bone and which exhibit multifunctional bioactivity. This review aims to lay out the tremendous outcomes of using inorganic nanoparticles in bone healing applications, including bone repair and regeneration, and modern therapeutic strategies for bone-related pathologies.

Abstract
Magnesium containing bioactive glass nanoparticles modified gelatin scaffolds (MBGNs/Gel scaffolds) have shown recently the potential for bone regeneration due to its good biocompatibility, bioresorbability and bioactivity. Nevertheless, its use is limited by its complicated manufacturing process and a relatively expensive price. In this study, MBGNs were prepared by sol-gel process. The MBGNs/Gel was synthesized by a simple immersion method. SEM, transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering analysis showed that the particles had spherical morphology with mean particle size of 100 nm. The MBGNs/Gel scaffolds were observed by SEM. The scaffolds showed connected pore structure with pore size ranging from 100 to 300 μm. SEM images with high magnification showed the existence of MBGNs on the surface of micro-pores. The ion release results revealed the release of Mg, Ca and Si elements from the MBGNs. MTT assay and cytotoxicity studies indicated that, the scaffolds provide a suitable ion related micro-environment for cell attachment and spreading. The Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) results showed the scaffolds could promote the osteogenesis of MC3T3-E1. Thein vivostudy also showed higher amount of new bone and trabecular bone which indicated excellent bone induction and conduction property of modified scaffolds. So, the developed MBGNs/Gel scaffolds are a potential candidate for bone regeneration applications.

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

Multi-functional silica-based mesoporous materials for simultaneous delivery of biologically active ions and therapeutic biomolecules. Acta Biomater 2021; 129:1-17.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica-based materials, especially mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs), are being highly considered for biomedical applications, including drug delivery and tissue engineering, not only because of their bioactivity and biocompatibility but also due to their tunable composition and potential use as drug delivery carriers owing to their controllable nanoporous structure. Numerous researches have reported that MBGs can be doped with various therapeutic ions (strontium, copper, magnesium, zinc, lithium, silver, etc.) and loaded with specific biomolecules (e.g., therapeutic drugs, antibiotics, growth factors) achieving controllable loading and release kinetics. Therefore, co-delivery of ions and biomolecules using a single MBG carrier is highly interesting as this approach provides synergistic effects toward improved therapeutic outcomes in comparison to the strategy of sole drug or ion delivery. In this review, we discuss the state-of-the-art in the field of mesoporous silica-based materials used for co-delivery of ions and therapeutic drugs with osteogenesis/cementogenesis, angiogenesis, antibacterial and anticancer properties. The analysis of the literature reveals that specially designed mesoporous nanocarriers can release multiple ions and drugs at therapeutically safe and relevant levels, achieving the desired biological effects (in vivo, in vitro) for specific biomedical applications. It is expected that this review on the ion/drug co-delivery concept using MBG carriers will shed light on the advantages of such co-delivery systems for clinical use. Areas for future research directions are identified and discussed. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Many studies in literature focus on the potential of single drug or ion delivery by mesoporous silica-based materials, exploiting the bioactivity, biocompatibility, tunable composition and controllable nanoporosity of these materials. Recenlty, studies have adopted the "dual-delivery" concept, by designing multi-functional mesoporous silica-based systems which are capable to deliver both biologically active ions and biomolecules (growth factors, drugs) simultaneously in order to achieve synergy of their complementary therapeutic activities. This review summarizes the state of the art in the field, with focus on osteogenesis/cementogenesis, angiogenesis, antibacterial and anticancer properties, and discusses the challenges and prospects for further progress in this area, expecting to generate broader interest in the technology for applications in disease treatment and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Despite the wide use of aliphatic polyesters, such as poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL), for many biomedical applications, these materials are limited due to their hydrophobic properties and lack of functional groups to bond with ligands to enhance the cell reorganization. Recently, a composite consisting of bioglass and PCL was demonstrated to enhance the mechanical strength and to improve the degradation rate. Although numerous approaches have been developed to improve the wettability of aliphatic polyesters to create a favorable interface with cells, only few surface modification methods can be independently applied to surfaces with different material. In this work, mesoporous bioglass (MBG) nanoparticles embedded in PCL films were modified by the polymerization of aminomalonitrile (AMN) with 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzaldehyde (THBA). The copolymer layer was further utilized as a mediator to conjugate chitosan and evaluate the antibacterial efficacy. Our results show that the hydrophilicity of the composite membranes significantly improved after treatment. In addition, after immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF) for 14 days, hydroxyapatite formation was only observed on the treated membranes. This result demonstrates that the surface treatment did not alter the MBG bioactivity. Moreover, the cell culture results reveal that the extension level of cells and expression of alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) of osteoblast-like (MG63) cells were higher on treated composite films compared to untreated ones. The results imply that the treatment procedure can be simultaneously and homogeneously applied to the organic/inorganic composites. In addition, Staphylococcus aureus adhesion on AMN-co-THBA and chitosan/ AMN-co-THBA was significantly lower than untreated PCL. Moreover, the percentage of dead bacteria was highest on the chitosan/ AMN-co-THBA membranes. These results indicate that the AMN-co-THBA modification can be used in composite materials and complex constructs, and it provides a potential method to create versatile surface properties for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Stem cells are the central element of regenerative medicine (RM). However, in many clinical applications, the use of scaffolds fabricated with biomaterials is required. In this sense, mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs) are going to play an important role in bone regeneration because of their striking textural properties, quick bioactive response, and biocompatibility. As other bioactive glasses, MBGs are mainly formed by silicon, calcium, and phosphorus oxides whose ions play an important role in cell proliferation as well as in homeostasis and bone remodeling process. A common improvement of bioactive glasses for RM is by adding small amounts of oxides of elements that confer them additional biological capacities, including osteogenic, angiogenic, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, hemostatic, or anticancer properties. Moreover, MBGs are versatile in terms of the different ways in which they can be processed, such as scaffolds, fibers, coatings, or nanoparticles. MBGs are unique because their textural properties are so high that they still exhibit outstanding bioactive responses even after adding extra inorganic ions or being processed as scaffolds or nanoparticles. Moreover, they can be further improved by loading with biomolecules, drugs, and stem cells. This article reviews the state of the art and future perspectives of MBGs in the field of RM of hard tissues.

Abstract
In the search of a new biomaterial for the treatment of bone defects resulting from traumatic events, an osteoporosis scenario with bone fractures, tumor removal, congenital pathologies or implant revisions for infection, we developed 3D scaffolds based on mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs) (85 − x)SiO2–5P2O5–10CaO–xSrO (x = 0, 2.5 and 5 mol.%). The scaffolds with meso-macroporosity were fabricated by pouring a suspension of MBG powders in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) into a negative template of polylactic acid (PLA), followed by removal of the template by extraction at low temperature. SrO-containing MBGs exhibited excellent properties for bone substitution including ordered mesoporous structure, high textural properties, quick in vitro bioactive response in simulated body fluid (SBF) and the ability of releasing concentrations of strontium ions able to stimulate expression of early markers of osteoblastic differentiation. Moreover, the direct contact of MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblastic cells with the scaffolds confirmed the cytocompatibility of the three compositions investigated. Nevertheless, the scaffold containing 2.5% of SrO induced the best cellular proliferation showing the potential of this scaffold as a candidate to be further investigated in vitro and in vivo, aiming to be clinically used for bone regeneration applications in non-load bearing sites.
