Bioact Mater 2022; 16:149-161. [PMID: 35386329 PMCID: PMC8958472 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2022.01.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2021] [Revised: 01/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Electrospun fibers, with proven ability to promote tissue regeneration, are widely being explored for rotator cuff repairing. However, without post treatment, the microstructure of the electrospun scaffold is vastly different from that of natural extracellular matrix (ECM). Moreover, during mechanical loading, the nanofibers slip that hampers the proliferation and differentiation of migrating stem cells. Here, electrospun nanofiber scaffolds, with crimped nanofibers and welded joints to biomimic the intricate natural microstructure of tendon-to-bone insertion, were prepared using poly(ester-urethane)urea and gelatin via electrospinning and double crosslinking by a multi-bonding network densification strategy. The crimped nanofiber scaffold (CNS) features bionic tensile stress and induces chondrogenic differentiation, laying credible basis for in vivo experimentation. After repairing a rabbit massive rotator cuff tear using a CNS for 3 months, the continuous translational tendon-to-bone interface was fully regenerated, and fatty infiltration was simultaneously inhibited. Instead of micro-CT, μCT was employed to visualize the integrity and intricateness of the three-dimensional microstructure of the CNS-induced-healed tendon-to-bone interface at an ultra-high resolution of less than 1 μm. This study sheds light on the correlation between nanofiber post treatment and massive rotator cuff repair and provides a general strategy for crimped nanofiber preparation and tendon-to-bone interface imaging characterization. Electrospun scaffold mimicking the microstructure of ECM was fabricated. The translational microstructure of tendon-to-bone interface was regenerated. Tendon-to-bone interface was 3D visualized with resolution less than 1 μm. Muscle fatty infiltration was inhibited for massive rotator cuff tear.

Abstract
Hip replacement is one of the most successful surgeries in the clinic for the removal of painful joints. Hip osteoarthritis and femoral head necrosis are the 2 main reasons for hip replacement. Several factors are associated with the outcomes of surgery. Nonsurgical factors include gender, age, body mass index, prosthetic material, and risk factors. Surgical factors are anesthesia, postoperative complications, and rehabilitation. Considering the increasing demand for hip arthroplasty and the rise in the number of revision operations, it is imperative to understand factor-related progress and how modifications of these factors promotes recovery following hip replacement. In this review, we first summarize recent findings regarding crucial factors that influence the outcomes of artificial hip replacement surgery. These findings not only show the time-specific effect for the treatment and recovery from hip arthroplasty in the clinic, but also provide suitable choices for different individuals for clinicians to consider. This, in turn, will help to develop the best possible postoperative program for specific patients.

A critical review of multifunctional titanium surfaces: New frontiers for improving osseointegration and host response, avoiding bacteria contamination. Acta Biomater 2018; 79:1-22. [PMID: 30121373 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2018.08.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 182] [Impact Index Per Article: 30.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2018] [Revised: 07/30/2018] [Accepted: 08/15/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Evolution of metal implants progressively shifted the focus from adequate mechanical strength to improved biocompatibility and absence of toxicity and, finally, to fast osseointegration. Recently, new frontiers and challenges of Ti implants have been addressed to improvement of bioactivity, fighting of bacterial infection and biofilm formation, as well as modulation of inflammation. This is closely related to the clinical demand of multifunctional implants able to simultaneously have a number of specific responses with respect to body fluids, cells (osteoblasts, fibroblasts, macrophages) and pathogenic agents (bacteria, viruses). This complex system of multiple biological stimuli and surface responses is a major arena of the current research on biomaterials and biosurfaces. This review covers the strategies explored to this purpose since 2010 in the case of Ti and Ti alloys, considering that the number of related papers doubled about in the last seven years and no review has comprehensively covered this engaging research area yet. The different approaches followed for producing multifunctional Ti-based surfaces involve the use of thick and thin inorganic coatings, chemical surface treatments, and functionalization strategies coupled with organic coatings. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE According to the clinical demand of multifunctional implants able to simultaneously have a number of specific responses with respect to body fluids, cells and pathogenic agents, new frontiers of Ti implants have been addressed to improvement of bioactivity, fighting of bacterial infection and biofilm formation, as well as modulation of inflammation. Literature since 2010 is here reviewed. Several strategies for getting bioactive and antibacterial actions on Ti surfaces have been suggested, but they still need to be optimized with respect to several concerns. A further step will be to combine on the same surface a proven ability of modulation of inflammatory response. The achievement of multifunctional surfaces able to modulate inflammation and to promote osteogenesis is a grand challenge.
