Abstract
Critical bone defects complicate tissue graft-based surgeries, raising healthcare expenditures and underscoring scaffold-based tissue-engineering strategies to support bone reconstruction. Our study highlighted that the phase-compatible combination of inorganic nanorods, nanofibers, and hydrogels is promising for developing biomimetic and cell-instructive scaffolds since the bone matrix is a porous organic/inorganic composite. In brief, methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) was reacted with dopamine to form catechol-modified GeLMA (GelMA-C). The GelMA-C was nanocoated onto an iron-doped hydroxyapatite (FeHAp) nanorod via metal-catechol network coordination. The modified nanorod (FeHAp@GelMA-C) was loaded onto GelMA-based nanofibers. The nanorods loaded pre-fibers were electrospun onto GelMA solution and photochemically crosslinked to fabricate a fiber-reinforced hydrogel. The structural, mechanical, physicochemical, biocompatibility, swelling properties, osteogenic potential, and bone remodelling potential (using rat femoral defect model) of modified nanorods, simple hydrogel, and nanorod-loaded fiber-reinforced hydrogel were studied. The results supported that the interface interaction between GelMA-C/nanorods, nanorods/nanofibers, nanorods/hydrogels, and nanofiber/hydrogels significantly improved the microstructural and mechanical properties of the scaffold. Compared to pristine hydrogel, the nanorod-loaded fiber-reinforced scaffold better supported cellular responses, osteogenic differentiation, matrix mineralization, and accelerated bone regeneration. The nanorod-loaded fiber-reinforced hydrogel proved more biomimetic and cell-instructive for guided bone reconstruction.

Abstract
RAFT solution polymerization is used to polymerize 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate (HPMA). The resulting PHPMA precursor is then chain-extended using N,N'-dimethylacrylamide (DMAC) to produce a series of thermoresponsive PHPMA-PDMAC diblock copolymers. Such amphiphilic copolymers can be directly dispersed in ice-cold water and self-assembled at 20 °C to form spheres, worms, or vesicles depending on their copolymer composition. Construction of a pseudo-phase diagram is required to identify the pure worm phase, which corresponds to a rather narrow range of PDMAC DPs. Such worms form soft, free-standing gels in aqueous solution at around ambient temperature. Rheology studies confirm the thermoresponsive nature of such worms, which undergo a reversible worm-to-sphere on cooling below ambient temperature. This morphological transition leads to in situ degelation, and variable temperature 1H NMR studies indicate a higher degree of (partial) hydration for the weakly hydrophobic PHPMA chains at lower temperatures. The trithiocarbonate end-group located at the end of each PDMAC chain can be removed by treatment with excess hydrazine. The resulting terminal secondary thiol group can form disulfide bonds via coupling, which produces PHPMA-PDMAC-PHPMA triblock copolymer chains. Alternatively, this reactive thiol group can be used for conjugation reactions. A PHPMA141-PDMAC36 worm gel was used to store human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for up to three weeks at 37 °C. MSCs retrieved from this gel subsequently underwent proliferation and maintained their ability to differentiate into osteoblastic cells.

Stimulation of Metabolic Activity and Cell Differentiation in Osteoblastic and Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells by a Nanohydroxyapatite Paste Bone Graft Substitute. MATERIALS 2022; 15:ma15041570.

Abstract
Advances in nanotechnology have been exploited to develop new biomaterials including nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (nHA) with physical properties close to those of natural bone mineral. While clinical data are encouraging, relatively little is understood regarding bone cells’ interactions with synthetic graft substitutes based on this technology. The aim of this research was therefore to investigate the in vitro response of both osteoblast cell lines and primary osteoblasts to an nHA paste. Cellular metabolic activity was assessed using the cell viability reagent PrestoBlue and quantitative, real-time PCR was used to determine gene expression related to osteogenic differentiation. A potential role of calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) in the response of osteoblastic cells to nHA was also investigated. Indirect contact of the nHA paste with human osteoblastic cells (Saos-2, MG63, primary osteoblasts) and human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells enhanced the cell metabolic activity. The nHA paste also stimulated gene expression of runt-related transcription factor 2, collagen 1, alkaline phosphatase, and osteocalcin, thereby indicating an osteogenic response. CaSR was not involved in nHA paste-induced increases in cellular metabolic activity. This investigation demonstrated that the nHA paste has osteogenic properties that contribute to clinical efficacy when employed as an injectable bone graft substitute.

Abstract
Injectable bone substitutes (IBS) are increasingly being used in the fields of orthopedics and maxillofacial/oral surgery. The rheological properties of IBS allow for proper and less invasive filling of bony defects. Vaterite is the most unstable crystalline polymorph of calcium carbonate and is known to be able to transform into hydroxyapatite upon contact with an organic fluid (e.g., interstitial body fluid). Two different concentrations of hydrogels based on poly(ethylene glycol)-acetal-dimethacrylat (PEG-a-DMA), i.e., 8% (w/v) (VH-A) or 10% (w/v) (VH-B), were combined with vaterite nanoparticles and implanted in subcutaneous pockets of BALB/c mice for 15 and 30 days. Explants were prepared for histochemical staining and immunohistochemical detection methods to determine macrophage polarization, and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) to analyze elemental composition was used for the analysis. The histopathological analysis revealed a comparable moderate tissue reaction to the hydrogels mainly involving macrophages. Moreover, the hydrogels underwent a slow cellular infiltration, revealing a different degradation behavior compared to other IBS. The immunohistochemical detection showed that M1 macrophages were mainly found at the material surfaces being involved in the cell-mediated degradation and tissue integration, while M2 macrophages were predominantly found within the reactive connective tissue. Furthermore, the histomorphometrical analysis revealed balanced numbers of pro- and anti-inflammatory macrophages, demonstrating that both hydrogels are favorable materials for bone tissue regeneration. Finally, the EDX analysis showed a stepwise transformation of the vaterite particle into hydroxyapatite. Overall, the results of the present study demonstrate that hydrogels including nano-vaterite particles are biocompatible and suitable for bone tissue regeneration applications.

Abstract
Biominerals formed by organisms in the course of biomineralization often demonstrate complex morphologies despite their single-crystalline nature. This is achieved owing to the crystallization via a predeposited amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC) phase, a precursor that is particularly widespread in biominerals. Inspired by this natural strategy, we used robocasting, an additive manufacturing three-dimensional (3D) printing technique, for printing 3D objects from novel long-term, Mg-stabilized ACC pastes with high solids loading. We demonstrated, for the first time, that the ACC remains stable for at least a couple of months, even after printing. Crystallization, if desired, occurs only after the 3D object is already formed and at temperatures significantly lower than those of common postprinting sintering. We also examined the effects different organic binders have on the crystallization, the morphology, and the final amount of incorporated Mg. This novel bio-inspired method may pave the way for a new bio-inspired route to low-temperature 3D printing of ceramic materials for a multitude of applications.

Abstract
During the last decades, inkjet printing has emerged as a novel technology and attracted the attention of the pharmaceutical industry, as a potential method for manufacturing personalized and customizable dosage forms to deliver drugs. Commonly, the desired drug is dissolved or dispersed within the ink and then dispensed in various dosage forms. Using this approach, several studies have been conducted to load hydrophilic or poorly water-soluble small molecules onto the surface of different solid substrates, including films, tablets, microneedles, and smart data-enriched edible pharmaceuticals, using two-dimensional and three-dimensional inkjet printing methods, with high dose accuracy and reproducibility. Furthermore, biological drugs, such as peptides, proteins, growth factors, and plasmids, have also been evaluated with positive results, eliciting the expected biological response; nonetheless, minor changes in the structure of these compounds with significant impaired activity cannot be dismissed. Another strategy using inkjet printing is to disperse drug-loaded nanoscale particles in the ink liquid, such as nanosuspension, nanocomplexes, or nanoparticles, which have been explored with promising results. Although these favorable outcomes, the proper selection of ink constituents and the inkjet printer, the correlation of printing cycles and effectively printed doses, the stability studies of drugs within the ink and the optimal analysis of samples before and after the printing process are the main challenges for inkjet printing, and therefore, this review analyzes these aspects to assess the body of current literature and help to guide future investigations on this field.

Abstract
Injectable biphasic calcium phosphates have been proposed as a solution in the treatment of a range of clinical applications including as fillers in the augmentation of osteoporotic bone. To date, various biodegradable natural or synthetic organics have been used as a polymer component of bone materials to increase their cohesiveness. Herein, a novel bone material was developed combining osteoconductive biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) nanoparticles with phosphoserine-tethered generation 3 poly(epsilon-lysine) dendron (G3-K PS), a class of hyperbranched peptides previously shown to induce biomineralization and stem cell osteogenic differentiation. Strontium was also incorporated into the BCP nanocrystals (SrBCP) to prevent bone resorption. Within 24 h, an antiwashout behavior was observed in G3-K PS-integrated pure BCP group (BCPG3). Moreover, both in vitro tests by relevant cell phenotypes and an in vivo tissue regeneration study by an osteoporotic animal bone implantation showed that the integration of G3-K PS would downregulate Cxcl9 gene and protein expressions, thus enhancing bone regeneration measured as bone mineral density, new bone volume ratio, and trabecular microarchitectural parameters. However, no synergistic effect was found when Sr was incorporated into the BCPG3 bone pastes. Notably, results indicated a concomitant reduction of bone regeneration potential assessed as reduced Runx2 and PINP expression when bone resorptive RANKL and CTX-I levels were reduced by Sr supplementation. Altogether, the results suggest the potential of injectable BCPG3 bone materials in the treatment of osteoporotic bone defects.

Abstract
Nano-hydroxyapatite (nano-HA) is a material with multiple uses due to its biocompatibility and its resemblance to the nonorganic bone structure. It is used in various dental domains such as implantology, surgery, periodontology, esthetics and prevention. The aim of this study is to provide a wide understanding of nano-HA and to promote treatments based on nanomaterials in dentistry. A search in two data bases, Scopus, and PubMED, was conducted over a 5 years period. We chose a 5 years period because this revealed the most recent published studies with the key words 'nano-HA' and 'dentistry'. A number of 32 studies were included in this systematic review. In implantology the main use of nano-HA was as a coating material for titanium implants and its effect was assessed in the matter of osteointegration and inflammatory response as well as antibacterial activity. In tissue engineering the use of nano-HA was directed to surgery and periodontology and this material was assessed mainly as a grafting material. In esthetics and prevention its use was mainly focused on dentinal hypersensitivity treatment, remineralizing potential and as bleaching co-agent. Nano-HA is a relatively novel material with outstanding physical, chemical, mechanical and biological properties that makes it suitable for multiple interventions. It outperformed most of the classic materials used in implantology and surgery but it should be further investigated for bone engineering and caries prevention therapy.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering involves the combined use of materials with functional properties to regenerate bone. Nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) can influence the behavior of cells. The functional and structural properties of nHA can be controlled during nanoparticle synthesis. This review defines the relationship between the attributes of nHA nanoparticles and their biological effects, focusing on biocompatibility, surface-area-to-volume ratio, bonding chemistry, and substrate functionality. The paper explores how these aspects have been applied in the development of scaffolds for the repair of damaged bone or regeneration of missing bone.

Combining autologous particulate dentin, L-PRF, and fibrinogen to create a matrix for predictable ridge preservation: a pilot clinical study. Clin Oral Investig 2019; 24:1151-1160. [PMID: 31292776 DOI: 10.1007/s00784-019-02922-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2018] [Accepted: 04/29/2019] [Indexed: 01/11/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to describe the histological and clinical outcome of "dentin block" (a mixture of autologous particulate dentin, leukocyte- and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF), and liquid fibrinogen) in alveolar ridge preservation. MATERIAL AND METHODS Ten extraction sockets were grafted with "dentin block," a mixture of particulate autologous dentin with chopped leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) membranes at a 1:1 ratio, and liquid fibrinogen as a binder. Two grafted sites were followed at 4 and 5 months, and 6 sites at 6 months. Biopsies were taken from the core of the grafted site for histologic and histo-morphometric analysis. RESULTS All patients completed the study without any adverse event. The vertical and horizontal dimensions of the alveolar ridge were preserved or even increased after 4, 5, or 6 months and remained stable after 6 months of the implant placement. The histological examination revealed a median relative percentage of bone, dentin, and connective tissue of 57.0, 0.9, and 39.3%, respectively. A comparison of samples at different time points (4, 5, and 6 months) showed a progressive increase in the proportion of bone with a decrease in the proportion of dentin. The bone was compact with normal osteocytes and moderate osteoblastic activity. In 4 out of 10 samples, no dentin was observed; in the other samples, it represented 1-5% (with geometric fragments). CONCLUSIONS Dentin block showed to be a suitable bone substitute in an alveolar ridges preservation model. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The promising results of dentin block as a bone substitute in alveolar ridge preservation could have an important clinical impact considering this biomaterial brings together the regenerative potential of three autologous products with excellent biological and clinical behavior, low risk of adverse effects, and feasible acquisition.

Abstract
Tissue engineered scaffolds, made of natural derived materials, have the potential to be used in bone regeneration fields due to the biocompatible and biodegradable features. In this study, we propose duck's feet-derived collagen (DC) sponges blended with hydroxyapatite (HAp), incorporated with different concentrations of silymarin (Smn), for improved bone regeneration. The morphological and structural properties of DC/HAp and DC/HAp loaded with 25, 50 and 100 μM of Smn sponges were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). In vitro evaluations were carried out on rabbit bone marrow stem cells (rBMSCs) using MTT assay for cell proliferation, ALP assay for osteogenic differentiation and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for expression of mRNAs. For the evaluation of new bone formation in vivo, histological analysis and micro computed tomography (μCT) were used. Preliminary results, on Smn/DC/HAp morphology and mechanical properties, showed an interconnected porosity suitable for cells ingrowth and a higher compressive strength with the presence of Smn. Similarly, the cells proliferation and ALP activity modulation were positively influenced by the Smn content. Especially, the 100 μM Smn/DC/HAp sponge efficiently enhances the rBMSCs adhesion, growth and gene expression of osteogenic markers. The enhanced osteoinductive effects of sponges blended with Smn were confirmed using μ-CT and histological evaluations. In conclusion, results suggest that collagen sponges represent an excellent environment for cells growth and proliferation, while Smn plays an important role to improve materials osteogenic properties.

Study on an injectable biomedical paste using cross-linked sodium hyaluronate as a carrier of hydroxyapatite particles. Carbohydr Polym 2018; 195:378-386.

Abstract
Exploring the long-term filler for minimally invasive plastic surgery has been widely concerned. In the present study, a series of injectable paste composed of hydroxyapatite (HAp) spherical particles and cross-linked sodium hyaluronate (cHA) solution were prepared. The physicochemical properties of cHA as a carrier of high content HAp microspheres (>50%) and as-obtained injectable HAp/cHA paste were studied. The cross-linking degree (DC), viscosity and molecular weight (Mw and Mn) of cHA increased with the increasing of the cross-linker dosage from 7.5 to 17.5 wt% under the certain conditions. HAp/cHA pastes were fabricated by homogeneously blending different sizes of HAp microspheres with cHA solution. The stability, rheological performance and push-out force of the pastes were studied, and the influence factors were discussed. The results indicated that moderate crosslinked cHA with 60% middle size HAp (HAp-M60/cHA-15.0) had appropriate comprehensive property. Finally, the in vitro cell culture approved the paste had no cytotoxicity. Although the biological performance of the pastes still need to be investigated, this preliminary study demonstrates that it is possible to carry high content HAp in cHA, expecting the better volumetric maintenance after long term implantation.

Abstract
Current commercially available barrier membranes for oral surgery have yet to achieve a perfect design. Existing materials used are either non-resorbable and require a second surgery for their extraction, or alternatively are resorbable but suffer from poor structural integrity or degrade into acidic by-products. Silk has the potential to overcome these issues and has yet to be made into a commercially available dental barrier membrane. Reactive inkjet printing (RIJ) has recently been demonstrated to be a suitable method for assembling silk in its regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) form into different constructs. This paper will establish the properties of RSF solutions for RIJ and the suitability of RIJ for the construction of RSF barrier membranes. Printed RSF films were characterised by their crystallinity and surface properties, which were shown to be controllable via RIJ. RSF films degraded in either phosphate buffered saline or protease XIV solutions had degradation rates related to RSF crystallinity. RSF films were also printed with the inclusion of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA). As reactive inkjet printing could control RSF crystallinity and hence its degradation rate, as well as offering the ability to incorporate bioactive nHA inclusions, reactive inkjet printing is deemed a suitable alternative method for RSF processing and the production of dental barrier membranes.

Abstract
Nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (nanoHA) is the main hard component of bone and has the potential to be used to promote osseointegration of implants and to treat bone defects. Here, using active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) such as ibuprofen, we report on the prospects of combining nanoHA with biologically active compounds to improve the clinical performance of these treatments. In this study, we designed and investigated the possibility of API attachment to the surface of nanoHA crystals via the formation of a hydrogen-bonded complex. The mechanistic studies of an ibuprofen/nanoHA complex formation have been performed using a holistic approach encompassing spectroscopic (Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman) and X-ray diffraction techniques, as well as quantum chemistry calculations, while comparing the behavior of the ibuprofen/nanoHA complex with that of a physical mixture of the two components. Whereas ibuprofen exists in dimeric form both in solid and liquid state, our study showed that the formation of the ibuprofen/nanoHA complex most likely occurs via the dissociation of the ibuprofen dimer into monomeric species promoted by ethanol, with subsequent attachment of a monomer to the HA surface. An adsorption mode for this process is proposed; this includes hydrogen bonding of the hydroxyl group of ibuprofen to the hydroxyl group of the apatite, together with the interaction of the ibuprofen carbonyl group to an HA Ca center. Overall, this mechanistic study provides new insights into the molecular interactions between APIs and the surfaces of bioactive inorganic solids and sheds light on the relationship between the noncovalent bonding and drug release properties.
