Lukina Y, Safronova T, Smolentsev D, Toshev O. Calcium Phosphate Cements as Carriers of Functional Substances for the Treatment of Bone Tissue. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:4017. [PMID: 37297151 PMCID: PMC10254876 DOI: 10.3390/ma16114017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2023] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Interest in calcium phosphate cements as materials for the restoration and treatment of bone tissue defects is still high. Despite commercialization and use in the clinic, the calcium phosphate cements have great potential for development. Existing approaches to the production of calcium phosphate cements as drugs are analyzed. A description of the pathogenesis of the main diseases of bone tissue (trauma, osteomyelitis, osteoporosis and tumor) and effective common treatment strategies are presented in the review. An analysis of the modern understanding of the complex action of the cement matrix and the additives and drugs distributed in it in relation to the successful treatment of bone defects is given. The mechanisms of biological action of functional substances determine the effectiveness of use in certain clinical cases. An important direction of using calcium phosphate cements as a carrier of functional substances is the volumetric incorporation of anti-inflammatory, antitumor, antiresorptive and osteogenic functional substances. The main functionalization requirement for carrier materials is prolonged elution. Various release factors related to the matrix, functional substances and elution conditions are considered in the work. It is shown that cements are a complex system. Changing one of the many initial parameters in a wide range changes the final characteristics of the matrix and, accordingly, the kinetics. The main approaches to the effective functionalization of calcium phosphate cements are considered in the review.

Design of Antibacterial Apatitic Composite Cement Loaded with Ciprofloxacin: Investigations on the Physicochemical Properties, Release Kinetics, and Antibacterial Activity. Int J Pharm 2023; 637:122861. [PMID: 36948475 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2023.122861] [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: 01/12/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/24/2023]
Abstract
This work aims to develop an injectable and antibacterial composite cement for bone substitution and prevention/treatment of bone infections. This cement is composed of calcium phosphate, calcium carbonate, bioactive glass, sodium alginate, and ciprofloxacin. The effect of ciprofloxacin on the microstructure, chemical composition, setting properties, cohesion, injectability, and compressive strength was investigated. The in vitro drug release kinetics and the antibacterial activity of ciprofloxacin-loaded composites against staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli pathogens were investigated. XRD and FTIR analysis demonstrated that the formulated cements are composed of a nanocrystalline carbonated apatite analogous to the mineral part of the bone. The evaluation of the composite cement's properties revealed that the incorporation of 3 and 9 wt% of ciprofloxacin affects the microstructural and physicochemical properties of the cement, resulting in a prolonged setting time, and a slight decrease in injectability and compressive strength. The in vitro drug release study revealed sustained release profiles over 18 days. The amounts of ciprofloxacin released per day (0.2 -15.2 mg/L) depend on the cement composition and the amount of ciprofloxacin incorporated. The antibacterial activity of ciprofloxacin-loaded cement composites attested to their effectiveness to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.

Abstract
Thanks to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, injectability and self-setting properties, calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) have been the most economical and effective biomaterials of choice for use as bone void fillers. They have also been extensively used as drug delivery carriers owing to their ability to provide for a steady release of various organic molecules aiding the regeneration of defective bone, including primarily antibiotics and growth factors. This review provides a systematic compilation of studies that reported on the controlled release of drugs from CPCs in the last 25 years. The chemical, compositional and microstructural characteristics of these systems through which the control of the release rates and mechanisms could be achieved have been discussed. In doing so, the effects of (i) the chemistry of the matrix, (ii) porosity, (iii) additives, (iv) drug types, (v) drug concentrations, (vi) drug loading methods and (vii) release media have been distinguished and discussed individually. Kinetic specificities of in vivo release of drugs from CPCs have been reviewed, too. Understanding the kinetic and mechanistic correlations between the CPC properties and the drug release is a prerequisite for the design of bone void fillers with drug release profiles precisely tailored to the application area and the clinical picture. The goal of this review has been to shed light on these fundamental correlations.

Abstract
In this work, 3D porous granules based on Zn and Se-containing calcium phosphates (CaPs) were fabricated using a droplet-extrusion technique. The composite beads varied in composition and contained two different natural polymers: sodium alginate (SA) and gelatin (GEL). To analyse and compare their physicochemical properties, such as porosity and morphology, different techniques were applied, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), sorption of N2 and mercury porosimetry. Prior to the fabrication of the granules, the properties of CaPs materials, (the bioceramic base of the beads), selenium (IV)-substituted hydroxyapatite (Se-HA) and zinc-substituted dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (Zn-DCPD), were also investigated. The results of cell viability assessment showed that Se-HA powder was non-toxic to human osteoblasts (hFOB 1.19) and simultaneously exhibited high toxicity to tumour cells (Saos-2). Once the cytotoxicity assay was completed, Se-HA and Zn-DCPD were used to prepare 3D materials. The prepared porous granules were used as matrices to deliver simvastatin to bones. Simvastatin was applied in either the lipophilic form or hydrophilic form. The release kinetics of simvastatin from granules of different composition was then assessed and compared.

Abstract
Apatitic bone cements have been used as a clinical bone substitutes and drug delivery vehicles for therapeutic agents in orthopedic applications. This has led to their combination with different drugs with known ability to foster bone formation. Recent studies have evaluated Simvastatin for its role in enhanced bone regeneration, but its lipophilicity hampers incorporation and release to and from the bone graft. In this study, injectable calcium phosphate foams (i-CPF) based on α-tricalcium phosphate were loaded for the first time with Pitavastatin. The stability of the drug in different conditions relevant to this study, the effect of the drug on the i-CPFs properties, the release profile, and the in vitro biological performance with regard to mineralization and vascularization were investigated. Pitavastatin did not cause any changes in neither the micro nor the macro structure of the i-CPFs, which retained their biomimetic features. PITA-loaded i-CPFs showed a dose-dependent drug release, with early stage release kinetics clearly affected by the evolving microstructure due to the setting of cement. in vitro studies showed dose-dependent enhancement of mineralization and vascularization. Our findings contribute towards the design of controlled release with low drug dosing bone grafts: i-CPFs loaded with PITA as osteogenic and angiogenic agent.

Abstract
Treatment of postsurgical infections, associated with orthopedic surgeries, has been a major concern for orthopedics. Several strategies including systematic and local administration of antibiotics have been proposed to this regard. The present work focused on fabricating alginate (Alg) modified brushite (Bru) cements, which could address osteogeneration and local antibiotic demands. To find the proper method of drug incorporation, Gentamicin sulfate (Gen) was loaded into the samples in the form of solution or powder. Several characterization tests including compression test, morphology, cytotoxicity, and cell adhesion assays were carried out to determine the proper concentration of Alg as a modifier of the Bru cement. The results indicated that addition of 1 wt% Alg led to superior mechanical and biological properties of the cement. Moreover, Alg addition changed the morphology of the cement from plate and needle-like structures to petal-like structure. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results confirmed the successful loading of Gen on the cements, specifically when Gen solution was used, and X-Ray Diffractometer result indicated that Gen caused a decrease in crystalline size. Furthermore, thermal analysis revealed that Gen-loaded sample had more stable structure as the transformation temperature slightly shifted to a higher one. The stability study confirmed the chemical stability and adequate mechanical performance of the cements within 1 month of soaking time. Finally, the addition of Alg has a positive impact on the release behavior at low concentration of Gen solution so that 20% decrease within 2 weeks of release experiment was remarkably detected.
