Functional non-uniformity of periodontal ligaments tunes mechanobiological stimuli across soft- and hard-tissue interfaces. Acta Biomater 2023; 170:240-249. [PMID: 37634832 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.08.047] [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: 04/10/2023] [Revised: 08/09/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023]
Abstract
The bone-periodontal ligament-tooth (BPT) complex is a unique mechanosensing soft-/hard-tissue interface, which governs the most rapid bony homeostasis in the body responding to external loadings. While the correlation between such loading and alveolar bone remodelling has been widely recognised, it has remained challenging to investigate the transmitted mechanobiological stimuli across such embedded soft-/hard-tissue interfaces of the BPT complex. Here, we propose a framework combining three distinct bioengineering techniques (i, ii, and iii below) to elucidate the innate functional non-uniformity of the PDL in tuning mechanical stimuli to the surrounding alveolar bone. The biphasic PDL mechanical properties measured via nanoindentation, namely the elastic moduli of fibres and ground substance at the sub-tissue level (i), were used as the input parameters in an image-based constitutive modelling framework for finite element simulation (ii). In tandem with U-net deep learning, the Gaussian mixture method enabled the comparison of 5195 possible pseudo-microstructures versus the innate non-uniformity of the PDL (iii). We found that the balance between hydrostatic pressure in PDL and the strain energy in the alveolar bone was maintained within a specific physiological range. The innate PDL microstructure ensures the transduction of favourable mechanobiological stimuli, thereby governing alveolar bone homeostasis. Our outcomes expand current knowledge of the PDL's mechanobiological roles and the proposed framework can be adopted to a broad range of similar soft-/hard- tissue interfaces, which may impact future tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and evaluating therapeutic strategies. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A combination of cutting-edge technologies, including dynamic nanomechanical testing, high-resolution image-based modelling and machine learning facilitated computing, was used to elucidate the association between the microstructural non-uniformity and biomechanical competence of periodontal ligaments (PDLs). The innate PDL fibre network regulates mechanobiological stimuli, which govern alveolar bone remodelling, in different tissues across the bone-PDL-tooth (BPT) interfaces. These mechanobiological stimuli within the BPT are tuned within a physiological range by the non-uniform microstructure of PDLs, ensuring functional tissue homeostasis. The proposed framework in this study is also applicable for investigating the structure-function relationship in broader types of fibrous soft-/hard- tissue interfaces.

Abstract
Introduction The low healing potential of mature menisci necessitates traditional surgical removal (meniscectomy) to eliminate acute or chronic degenerative tears. However, removal of meniscal tissue is main factor causing osteoarthritis. Adipose tissue-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs), a heterogeneous cell population that includes multipotent adipose-derived stem cells and other progenitor cells, were easily isolated in large amounts from autologous adipose tissue, and same-day processing without culture or expansion was possible. This study investigated the regenerative potential of autologous ADRCs for use in meniscus defects. Methods In 10- to 12-week-old male SD rat partial meniscectomy model, an atelocollagen sponge scaffold without or with ADRCs (5.0 × 105 cells) was injected into each meniscus defect. Reconstructed menisci were subjected to histologic, and dynamic mechanical analyses. Results After 12 weeks, areas of regenerated meniscal tissue in the atelocollagen sponge scaffold in rats with ADRCs (64.54 ± 0.52%, P < 0.05, n = 10) were larger than in those without injection (57.96 ± 0.45%). ADRCs were shown capable of differentiating chondrocyte-like cells and meniscal tissue components such as type II collagen. Higher elastic moduli and lower fluid permeability of regenerated meniscal tissue demonstrated a favorable structure-function relationship required for native menisci, most likely in association with micron-scale porosity, with the lowest level for tissue integrity possibly reproducible. Conclusions This is the first report of meniscus regeneration induced by injection of ADRCs. The results indicate that ADRCs will be useful in future clinical cell-based therapy strategies, including as a cell source for reconstruction of damaged knee menisci.

Collagen cross-link profiles and mineral are different between the mandible and femur with site specific response to perturbed collagen. Bone Rep 2022; 17:101629. [PMID: 36325166 PMCID: PMC9618783 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2022.101629] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Revised: 10/15/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Compromises to collagen and mineral lead to a decrease in whole bone quantity and quality in a variety of systemic diseases, yet, clinically, disease manifestations differ between craniofacial and long bones. Collagen alterations can occur through post-translational modification via lysyl oxidase (LOX), which catalyzes enzymatic collagen cross-link formation, as well as through non-enzymatic advanced glycation end products (AGEs) such as pentosidine and carboxymethyl-lysine (CML). Characterization of the cross-links and AGEs, and comparison of the mineral and collagen modifications in craniofacial and long bones represent a critical gap in knowledge. However, alterations to either the mineral or collagen in bone may contribute to disease progression and, subsequently, the anatomical site dependence of a variety of diseases. Therefore, we hypothesized that collagen cross-links and AGEs differ between craniofacial and long bones and that altered collagen cross-linking reduces mineral quality in an anatomic location dependent. To study the effects of cross-link inhibition on mineralization between anatomical sites, beta-aminoproprionitrile (BAPN) was administered to rapidly growing, 5-8 week-old male mice. BAPN is a dose-dependent inhibitor of LOX that pharmacologically alters enzymatic cross-link formation. Long bones (femora) and craniofacial bones (mandibles) were compared for mineral quantity and quality, collagen cross-link and AGE profiles, and tissue level mechanics, as well as the response to altered cross-links via BAPN. A highly sensitive liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC-MS) method was developed which allowed for quantification of site-dependent accumulation of the advanced glycation end-product, carboxymethyl-lysine (CML). CML was ∼8.3× higher in the mandible than the femur. The mandible had significantly higher collagen maturation, mineral crystallinity, and Young's modulus, but lower carbonation, than the femur. BAPN also had anatomic specific effects, leading to significant decreases in mature cross-links in the mandible, and an increase in mineral carbonation in the femur. This differential response of both the mineral and collagen composition to BAPN between the mandible and femur highlights the need to further understand how inherent compositional differences in collagen and mineral contribute to anatomic-site specific manifestations of disease in both craniofacial and long bones.

Abstract
Initial intimate apposition between implant fixtures and host bone at the surgical site is a critical factor for osseointegration of dental implants. The advanced glycation end products accumulated in the jaw bone could lead to potential failure of a dental implant during the initial integration stage, because of the inferior bone mechanical property associated with the abnormal collagen cross-linking at the material level. Here, we demonstrate the lowered creep deformation resistance and reduced dimensional recovery of jaw bone in line with high levels of pentosidine accumulation in the bone matrix which likely correlate with the pentosidine level in blood plasma. Peripheral blood samples and cortical bone samples at the surgical site were obtained from patients scheduled for dental implants in the mandible. The pentosidine levels in blood plasma were assessed. Subsequently, the relative pentosidine levels and the mechanical properties of the jaw bone were quantified by Raman microspectroscopy and nanoindentation, respectively. The nanoindentation tests revealed less creep deformation resistance and reduced time-dependent dimensional recovery of bone samples with the increase in the relative pentosidine level in the bone matrix. Higher tan δ values at the various frequencies during the dynamic indentation tests also suggested that viscoelasticity is associated with the relative intensity of pentosidine in the jaw bone matrix. We found a positive correlation between the pentosidine levels in blood plasma and the bone matrix, which in turn reduced the mechanical property of the jaw bone at the material level. Increased creep and reduced dimensional recovery of the jaw bone may diminish the mechanical interlocking of dental implants during the initial integration stage. Given the likely correlation between the plasma pentosidine level and the mechanical properties of bone, measurement of the plasma pentosidine level could serve as a new index to assess jaw bone matrix quality in advance of implant surgery.

Abstract
Although empirical findings have indicated increase in bone fracture risk in type 2 diabetes patients, that has yet to be proven by results obtained at the material level. Here, we report evidence showing nanoscale time-dependent deformation/recovery of in vitro calcified nodules mimicking bone turnover in type 2 diabetes in respect to methylglyoxal (MG)-induced glycation. Nanoindentation test results revealed that calcified nodules cultured with MG did not show adequate dimensional recovery, despite a large creep rate during constant load indentation testing. This lesser recovery is likely based on the linear matrix polymerization network formed by advanced glycation end products (AGEs) as a secondary product of MG. Since elevated serum MG and abnormal bone turnover related to the amount of AGEs are observed in cases of type 2 diabetes, this time-dependent behavior may be one of the factors of the bone fracture mechanism at the material level in affected patients.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 and ibandronate (IB) decrease the femoral head deformity following ischemic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of BMP-2 and IB on the mineral content and nanoindentation properties of the bone following ONFH. ONFH was surgically induced in the femoral head of piglets. There were five groups: normal control, untreated, IB, BMP, and BMP + IB (n = 5/group). Backscattered electron imaging, Raman spectroscopy, and nanoindentation testing were performed. Both BMP and BMP + IB groups showed calcium content in the trabecular bone similar to the normal group, while the IB and no-treatment groups showed a significant increase in the calcium content compared to the normal group. The carbonate content relative to phosphate was significantly increased in the IB and BMP + IB groups (p < 0.01) compared to the normal group. No significant difference was found between the BMP and the normal group. The nanoindentation modulus of the bone in the IB group was significantly increased compared to the normal group (p < 0.05). No significant differences were observed between the BMP and BMP + IB groups compared to the normal group. The nanoindentation hardness measurements in the IB group were also significantly increased compared to the BMP and BMP + IB groups (p < 0.05). In summary, trabecular bone treated with BMP or BMP + IB had material properties comparable to normal bone whereas the bone in the IB group retained the increased mineral content and the nanoindentation hardness found in the necrotic bone. Hence, BMP or BMP + IB better restores the normal mineral content and nanomechanical properties after ONFH than IB treatment alone. © 2016 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Abstract
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a complex illness with high rates of morbidity and mortality. In embryonic development, the heart is the first formed organ, which is strictly controlled by gene regulatory networks, including transcription factors, signaling pathways, epigenetic factors and microRNAs. Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 and -4 are essential in cardiogenesis as they can induce the expression of transcription factors, NKX2-5 and GATA binding protein 4, which are important in the development of the heart. The inhibition of BMP-2 and 4- inhibits the late expression of NKX2-5 and affects cardiac differentiation. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether BMP-2 and -4 variations may be associated with CHD in Chinese Han populations. The rs1049007, rs235768 and rs17563 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which are genetic variations located within the translated region of the BMP-2 and -4, were evaluated in 230 patients with CHD from the Chinese Han population and 160 non CHD control individuals. Statistical analyses were performed using the χ2 test, implemented using SPSS software (version 13.0). The Hardy Weinberg equilibrium test was performed on the population using online Online Encyclopedia for Genetic Epidemiology studies software, and multiple-sequence alignments of the BMP proteins were performed using Vector NTI software. No statistically significant associations were identified between these genetic variations and the risk of CHD (rs1049007, P value=0.560; rs235768, P value=0.972; rs17563, P value=0.787). In addition, no correlation was found between the patients with CHD and the non-CHD control individuals. Therefore, the rs1049007, rs235768 and rs17563 genetic variations of BMP-2 were not associated with CHD in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The lysyl oxidase family of enzymes is classically known as being required for connective tissue maturation by oxidizing lysine residues in elastin and lysine and hydroxylysine residues in collagen precursors. The resulting aldehydes then participate in cross-link formation, which is required for normal connective tissue integrity. These enzymes have biological functions that extend beyond this fundamental biosynthetic role, with contributions to angiogenesis, cell proliferation, and cell differentiation. Dysregulation of lysyl oxidases occurs in multiple pathologies including fibrosis, primary and metastatic cancers, and complications of diabetes in a variety of tissues. AREAS COVERED This review summarizes the major findings of novel roles for lysyl oxidases in pathologies, and highlights some of the potential therapeutic approaches that are in development and which stem from these new findings. EXPERT OPINION Fundamental questions remain regarding the mechanisms of novel biological functions of this family of proteins, and regarding functions that are independent of their catalytic enzyme activity. However, progress is underway in the development of isoform-specific pharmacologic inhibitors, potential therapeutic antibodies and gaining an increased understanding of both tumor suppressor and metastasis promotion activities. Ultimately, this is likely to lead to novel therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Raman spectroscopy is increasingly commonly used to understand how changes in bone composition and structure influence tissue-level bone mechanical properties. The spectroscopic technique provides information on bone mineral and matrix collagen components and on the effects of various matrix proteins on bone material properties as well. The Raman spectrum of bone not only contains information on bone mineral crystallinity that is related to bone hardness but also provides information on the orientation of mineral crystallites with respect to the collagen fibril axis. Indirect information on collagen cross-links is also available and will be discussed. After a short introduction to bone Raman spectroscopic parameters and collection methodologies, advances in in vivo Raman spectroscopic measurements for animal and human subject studies will be reviewed. A discussion on the effects of aging, osteogenesis imperfecta, osteoporosis and therapeutic agents on bone composition and mechanical properties will be highlighted, including genetic mouse models in which structure-function and exercise effects are explored. Similarly, extracellular matrix proteins, proteases and transcriptional proteins implicated in the regulation of bone material properties will be reviewed.

In situ quasi-static and dynamic nanoindentation tests on calcified nodules formed by osteoblasts: Implication of glucocorticoids responsible for osteoblast calcification. Acta Biomater 2015; 12:216-226. [PMID: 25448350 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2014.10.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2014] [Revised: 10/27/2014] [Accepted: 10/28/2014] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
The functional requirements of regenerated calcified tissues are that they enable the tissues to bear a variety of imposed stress and consequent contact-induced strain without substantial fracture. Here we demonstrate the effects of glucocorticoid hormones such as dexamethasone and hydrocortisone on the nanomechanical properties of calcified nodules formed by mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells in differentiation-inducing medium containing ascorbic acid and β-glycerophosphate. Neither cell proliferation nor calcium deposition, evaluated using alizarin red and von Kossa staining, was affected by dexamethasone. On the other hand, calcified nodules formed in the presence of dexamethasone were significantly harder and stiffer than those formed in their absence. In particular, a series of nanoindentation tests revealed that the calcified nodules formed in the presence of dexamethasone showed enhanced stiffness against dynamic strain as compared to a quasi-static load. Furthermore, Raman spectroscopy revealed that dexamethasone and hydrocortisone increased the apatite/matrix ratio and lowered that of carbonate in the nodules. Our results suggest that glucocorticoids are required for in vitro formation by osteoblasts of more mature calcified nodules containing apatite/phosphate.
