Abstract
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP), which is one of the bioactive calcium phosphates, can incorporate various organic molecules in its crystal lattice, forming the organic-inorganic hybrid derivatives. However, detailed atomic arrangements of OCP hybridized with organic molecules such as dicarboxylate are still unknown, although many years have passed since the first discovery of the materials systems. In the present study, some black-box optimization methods combined with first-principles calculations were used to theoretically identify the most stable atomic structure of the OCP with the incorporation of malonate ions as a typical case study. The results showed that the calculated interplanar spacing on the (100) plane of the most stable structure agrees well with experimental data, by taking account of implicit solvent of aqueous solution. An underlying mechanism that realizes the bridging feature of the incorporated malonate ions between the apatitic layers is also discussed. The present methodology can pave the way to accurately explore reliable atomic structures of such complicated organic-inorganic hybrid biomaterials with high structural degrees of freedom.

Suzuki O, Hamai R, Sakai S. The material design of octacalcium phosphate bone substitute: increased dissolution and osteogenecity. Acta Biomater 2023; 158:1-11. [PMID: 36581004 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.12.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been advocated as a precursor of bone apatite crystals. Recent studies have shown that synthetic OCP exhibits highly osteoconductive properties as a bone substitute material that stems from its ability to activate bone tissue-related cells, such as osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts. Accumulated experimental evidence supports the proposition that the OCP-apatite phase conversion under physiological conditions increases the stimulatory capacity of OCP. The conversion of OCP progresses by hydrolysis toward Ca-deficient hydroxyapatite with Ca2+ ion incorporation and inorganic phosphate ion release with concomitant increases in the solid Ca/P molar ratio, specific surface area, and serum protein adsorption affinity. The ionic dissolution rate during the hydrolysis reaction was controlled by introducing a high-density edge dislocation within the OCP lattice by preparing it through co-precipitation with gelatin. The enhanced dissolution intensifies the material biodegradation rate and degree of osteogenecity of OCP. Controlling the biodegradation rate relative to the dissolution acceleration may be vital for controlling the osteogenecity of OCP materials. This study investigates the effects of the ionic dissolution of OCP, focusing on the structural defects in OCP, as the enhanced metastability of the OCP phase modulates biodegradability followed by new bone formation. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) is recognized as a highly osteoconductive material that is biodegradable by osteoclastic resorption, followed by new bone formation by osteoblasts. However, if the degradation rate of OCP is increased by maintaining the original osteoconductivity or acquiring a bioactivity better than its current properties, then early replacement with new bone can be expected. Although cell introduction or growth factor addition by scaffold materials is the standard method for tissue engineering, material activity can be augmented by introducing dislocations into the lattice of the OCP. This review article summarizes the effects of introducing structural defects on activating OCP, which was obtained by co-precipitation with gelatin, as a bone substitute material and the mechanism of improved bone replacement performance.

Calcium Phosphate-Based Biomaterials for Bone Repair. J Funct Biomater 2022; 13:jfb13040187. [PMID: 36278657 PMCID: PMC9589993 DOI: 10.3390/jfb13040187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 51] [Impact Index Per Article: 25.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2022] [Revised: 10/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
Traumatic, tumoral, and infectious bone defects are common in clinics, and create a big burden on patient's families and society. Calcium phosphate (CaP)-based biomaterials have superior properties and have been widely used for bone defect repair, due to their similarities to the inorganic components of human bones. The biological performance of CaPs, as a determining factor for their applications, are dependent on their physicochemical properties. Hydroxyapatite (HAP) as the most thermally stable crystalline phase of CaP is mostly used in the form of ceramics or composites scaffolds with polymers. Nanostructured CaPs with large surface areas are suitable for drug/gene delivery systems. Additionally, CaP scaffolds with hierarchical nano-/microstructures have demonstrated excellent ability in promoting bone regeneration. This review focuses on the relationships and interactions between the physicochemical/biological properties of CaP biomaterials and their species, sizes, and morphologies in bone regeneration, including synthesis strategies, structure control, biological behavior, and the mechanisms of CaP in promoting osteogenesis. This review will be helpful for scientists and engineers to further understand CaP-based biomaterials (CaPs), and be useful in developing new high-performance biomaterials for bone repair.

Octacalcium Phosphate/Gelatin Composite (OCP/Gel) Enhances Bone Repair in a Critical-sized Transcortical Femoral Defect Rat Model. Clin Orthop Relat Res 2022; 480:2043-2055. [PMID: 35638896 PMCID: PMC9473763 DOI: 10.1097/corr.0000000000002257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone grafting is widely used to treat large bone defects. A porous composite of a bioactive octacalcium phosphate material with gelatin sponge (OCP/Gel) has been shown to biodegrade promptly and be replaced with new bone both in animal models of a membranous bone defect and a long bone defect. However, it is unclear whether OCP/Gel can regenerate bone in more severe bone defects, such as a critical-size transcortical defect. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES Using an in vivo rat femur model of a standardized, transcortical, critical-size bone defect, we asked: Compared with a Gel control, does OCP/Gel result in more newly formed bone as determined by (1) micro-CT evaluation, (2) histologic and histomorphometric measures, and (3) osteocalcin staining and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining? METHODS Thirty-four 12-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats (weight 356 ± 25.6 g) were used. Gel and OCP/Gel composites were prepared in our laboratory. Porous cylinders 3 mm in diameter and 4 mm in height were manufactured from both materials. The OCP/Gel and Gel cylinders were implanted into a 3-mm-diameter transcortical critical-size bone defect model in the left rat femur. The OCP/Gel and Gel were randomly assigned, and the cylinders were implanted. The biological responses of the defect regions were evaluated radiologically and histologically. At 4 and 8 weeks after implantation, CT evaluation, histological examination of decalcified samples, and immunostaining were quantitatively performed to evaluate new bone formation and remaining bone graft substitutes and activity of osteoblasts and osteoclast-like cells (n = 24). Qualitative histological evaluation was performed on undecalcified samples at 3 weeks postimplantation (n = 10). CT and decalcified tissue analysis was not performed blinded, but an analysis of undecalcified specimens was performed under blinded conditions. RESULTS Radiologic analysis revealed that the OCP/Gel group showed radiopaque regions around the OCP granules and at the edge of the defect margin 4 weeks after implantation, suggesting that new bone formation occurred in two ways. In contrast, the rat femurs in the Gel group had a limited radiopaque zone at the edge of the defect region. The amount of new bone volume analyzed by micro-CT was higher in the OCP/Gel group than in the Gel group at 4 and 8 weeks after implantation (4 weeks after implantation: OCP/Gel versus Gel: 6.1 ± 1.6 mm 3 versus 3.4 ± 0.7 mm 3 , mean difference 2.7 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.9 to 4.5]; p = 0.002; intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] 0.72 [95% CI 0.29 to 0.91]; 8 weeks after implantation: OCP/Gel versus Gel: 3.9 ± 0.7 mm 3 versus 1.4 ± 1.1 mm 3 , mean difference 2.5 [95% CI 0.8 to 4.3]; p = 0.004; ICC 0.81 [95% CI 0.47 to 0.94]). Histologic evaluation also showed there was a higher percentage of new bone formation in the OCP/Gel group at 4 and 8 weeks after implantation (4 weeks after implantation: OCP/Gel versus Gel: 31.2% ± 5.3% versus 13.6% ± 4.0%, mean difference 17.6% [95% CI 14.2% to 29.2%]; p < 0.001; ICC 0.83 [95% CI 0.53 to 0.95]; 8 weeks after implantation: OCP/Gel versus Gel: 28.3% ± 6.2% versus 9.5% ± 1.9%, mean difference 18.8% [95% CI 11.3% to 26.3%]; p < 0.001; ICC 0.90 [95% CI 0.69 to 0.97]). Bridging of the defect area started earlier in the OCP/Gel group than in the Gel group at 4 weeks after implantation. Osteocalcin immunostaining showed that the number of mature osteoblasts was higher in the OCP/Gel group than in the Gel group at 4 weeks (OCP/Gel versus Gel: 42.1 ± 6.5/mm 2 versus 17.4 ± 5.4/mm 2 , mean difference 24.7 [95% CI 16.2 to 33.2]; p < 0.001; ICC 0.99 [95% CI 0.97 to 0.99]). At 4 weeks, the number of osteoclast-like cells was higher in the OCP/Gel composite group than in the Gel group (OCP/Gel versus Gel: 3.2 ± 0.6/mm 2 versus 0.9 ± 0.4/mm 2 , mean difference 2.3 [95% CI 1.3 to 3.5]; p < 0.001; ICC 0.79 [95% CI 0.35 to 0.94]). CONCLUSION OCP/Gel composites induced early bone remodeling and cortical bone repair in less time than did the Gel control in a rat critical-size, transcortical femoral defect, suggesting that OCP/Gel could be used as a bone replacement material to treat severe bone defects. CLINICAL RELEVANCE In a transcortical bone defect model of critical size in the rat femur, the OCP/Gel composite demonstrated successful bone regeneration. Several future studies are needed to evaluate the clinical application of this interesting bone graft substitute, including bone formation capacity in refractory fracture and spinal fusion models and the comparison of bone strength after repair with OCP/Gel composite to that of autologous bone.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OF ADVANCED MATERIALS 2021; 22:345-362. [PMID: 34104115 PMCID: PMC8168741 DOI: 10.1080/14686996.2021.1916378] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2021] [Revised: 02/22/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
This study examined the effect of a mixture of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and autologous bone on bone regeneration in rat calvaria critical-sized defect (CSD). Mechanically mixed OCP and autologous bone granules (OCP+Auto), approximately 500 to 1000 μm in diameter, and each individual material were implanted in rat CSD for 8 weeks, and subjected to X-ray micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), histology, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining, and histomorphometry for bone regeneration. Osteoblastic differentiation from mesenchymal stem cells (D1 cells) was examined in the presence of non-contacting materials by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity for 21 days. The material properties and medium composition before and after the incubation were determined by selected area electron diffraction (SAED) under transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and chemical analysis. The results showed that while bone formation coupled with TRAP-positive osteoclastic resorption and cellular ALP activity were the highest in the Auto group, a positive effect per OCP weight or per autologous bone weight on ALP activity was found. Although the OCP structure was maintained even after the incubation (SAED), micro-deposits were grown on OCP surfaces (TEM). Fibrous tissue was also exposed on the autologous bone surfaces (SEM). Through FT-IR absorption, it was determined that bone mineral-like characteristics of the phosphate group increased in the OCP + Auto group. These findings were interpreted as a structural change from OCP to the apatitic phase, a conclusion supported by the medium degree of saturation changes. The results demonstrate the mutual chemical effect of mixing OCP with autologous bone as an active bone substitute material.

Abstract
Bone graft material is essential for satisfactory and sufficient bone growth which leads to a successful implant procedure. It is classified into autogenous bone, allobone, xenobone and alloplastic materials. Among them, it has been reported that heterogeneous bone graft material has a porous microstructure that increases blood vessels and bone formation, and shows faster bone formation than other types of bone graft materials. We observed new bone tissue formation and bone remodeling using Ti-oss® (Chiyewon Co., Ltd., Guri, Korea), a heterologous bone graft material. Using a Sprague–Dawley rat calvarial defect model to evaluate the bone healing effect of biomaterials, the efficacy of the newly developed xenograft Ti-oss® and Bio-Oss® (Geistilch Pharma AG, Wolhusen, Switzerland). The experimental animals were sacrificed at 8 and 12 weeks after surgery for each group and the experimental site was extracted. The average new bone area for the Ti-oss® experimental group at 8 weeks was 17.6%. The remaining graft material was 22.7% for the experimental group. The average new bone area for the Ti-oss® group was 24.3% at 12 weeks. The remaining graft material was 22.8% for the experimental group. It can be evaluated that the new bone-forming ability of Ti-oss® with octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has the bone-forming ability corresponding to the conventional products.

Abstract
This study compared bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption onto octacalcium phosphate (OCP) materials prepared from two wet preparations in the absence (w-OCP) and presence (c-OCP) of gelatin. Raman spectroscopy was used to analyze the BSA adsorption onto OCPs in a 150 mM Tris-HCl buffer containing 0.5 mM calcium and inorganic phosphate (Pi) ions at pH 7.4 and at 37°C. The degree of supersaturation of the supernatants after the adsorption was determined by measuring the ion composition. The results showed that BSA adsorption onto w-OCP was higher than that for c-OCP. The calcium ion concentration of the supernatant decreased for both w-OCP and c-OCP, whereas the Pi ion concentration increased, approaching OCP equilibria at different saturation levels. BSA adsorbed even onto c-OCP, which included a small amount of gelatin during c-OCP preparation. These results indicate that the biodegradability of w-OCP and c-OCP may be modulated through interactions with serum proteins.

Abstract
Background. Regeneration of bone defects remains a challenge for maxillofacial surgeons. The present study aimed to compare the effects of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and the combination of octacalcium phosphate/gelatin (OCP/Gel) on mandibular bone regeneration in rats
Methods. In the present study, 36 male Sprague-Dawley rats were used. The animals were randomly assigned to the following experimental groups: OCP (n=12), OCP/Gel (n=12), and the control group (n=12). Defects were created in the rat mandibles and filled with 10 mg of OCP and OCP/Gel disks in the experimental groups. In the control group, however, no substance was administered. Samples were taken on days 7, 14, 21 and 56, respectively, after the implantation. Sections (5 µ)
were prepared and stained by H&E. The sections were studied, and the volume fraction of newly formed bone was measured
by Dunnett's T3 test based on the significance level (P=0.05).
Results. In the experimental groups, the new bone formation began from the margin of defects 7‒14 days after the implantation. During the healing process, the newly formed bone healed a larger area of the defects and grew structurally. In the
control group, the defects were primarily filled with dense connective tissue, and only a small amount of new bone was
formed. The present study showed a statistically significant difference in the volume of newly formed bone between the
experimental groups and the control group (P<0.001).
Conclusion. OCP/Gel composite can be beneficial in the healing process of mandibular bone defects.

Abstract
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) is a material that can be converted to hydroxyapatite (HA) under physiological environments and is considered a mineral precursor to bone apatite crystals. The structure of OCP consists of apatite layers stacked alternately with hydrated layers, and closely resembles the structure of HA. The performance of OCP as a bone substitute differs from that of HA materials in terms of their osteoconductivity and biodegradability. OCP manifests a cellular phagocytic response through osteoclast-like cells similar to that exhibited by the biodegradable material β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). The use of OCP for human cranial bone defects involves using its granule or composite form with one of the natural polymers, viz., the reconstituted collagen. This review article discusses the differences and similarities in these calcium phosphate (Ca-P)-based materials from the viewpoint of the structure and their material chemistry, and attempts to elucidate why Ca-P materials, particularly OCP, display unique osteoconductive property.

Abstract
Cranial bone defects are a major issue in the field of neurosurgery, and improper management of such defects can cause cosmetic issues as well as more serious infections and inflammation. Several strategies exist to manage these defects clinically, but most rely on synthetic materials that are prone to complications; thus, a bone regenerative approach would be superior. We tested a material (octacalcium phosphate collagen composite [OCP/Col]) that is known to enhance bone regeneration in a skull defect model in rats. Using a critical-sized rat skull defect model, OCP/Col was implanted in rats with an intact dura or with a partial defect of the dura. The results were compared with those in a no-treatment group over the course of 12 weeks using computed tomographic and histological analysis. OCP/Col enhanced bone regeneration, regardless of whether there was a defect of the dura. OCP/Col can be used to treat skull defects, even when the dura is injured or removed surgically, via bone regeneration with enhanced resorption of OCP/Col, thus limiting the risk of infection greatly.

Abstract
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been shown to enhance new bone formation, coupled with its own biodegradation, through osteoblasts and osteoclast-like cell activities concomitant with de novo hydroxyapatite (HA) formation and serum protein accumulation on its surface. However, the nature of the chemical environment surrounding OCP and how it affects its metabolism and regulates protein accumulation is unknown. The present study examined how the degree of supersaturation (DS) affects the bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption onto OCP in 150 mM Tris-HCl buffer at 37 °C and pH 7.4, by changing the Ca2+ ion concentration. The amount of BSA adsorbed onto OCP increased as the DS increased. In addition, the amount of newly formed calcium phosphate, which could be OCP, was increased, not only by increases in DS, but also at lower equilibrium concentrations of BSA. The increased adsorption capacity of BSA was likely related to the formation of calcium phosphate on the adsorbed OCP. Together the results suggested that the formation of new calcium phosphate crystals is dependent on both the DS value and the adsorbate protein concentration, which may control serum protein accumulation on the OCP surface in vivo.

[PMID: 30844570 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2019.03.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2018] [Revised: 02/28/2019] [Accepted: 03/03/2019] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
Three-dimensional (3-D) cell culture can better mimic physiological conditions in which cells interact with adjacent cells and the extracellular matrix than monolayer culture. We have developed a 3-D cell culture device, the Oxy chip, which can be used to generate and supply oxygen to cell spheroids to prevent hypoxia. Here, we used the Oxy chip to generate hybrid spheroids comprising calcium phosphate (CaP) particles (hydroxyapatite (HA), β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) or octacalcium phosphate (OCP)) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs, C3H10T1/2 cells or D1 cells) that can be used to analyze cell differentiation mechanisms. We showed that the 3-D cell-cell and cell-material interactions and oxygenation offered by the Oxy chip promoted osteoblastic differentiation of MSCs. We also used histomorphometric analysis of hematoxylin and eosin staining, quality analyses by μCT and collagen orientation observation with picrosirius red staining in bone regeneration following implantation of three CaPs in a critical-sized defect in mouse calvaria. The in vivo bone formation capacity of the three tested CaP materials was OCP ≥ β-TCP > HA: the newly formed bone by OCP had a structure relatively close to that of the calvaria intact bone. When MSCs were 3-D cultured with the CaP materials using the Oxy chip, the in vitro osteogenic capacity of these materials was highly similar to trends observed in vivo. The in vitro alkaline phosphatase activity of D1 cells had the highest correlation with in vivo bone volume (R = 0.900). Chemical and FTIR spectroscopic analyses confirmed that differentiation of D1 cells could be associated with amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) precipitation concomitant with OCP hydrolysis. Taken together, hybrid spheroid cultures using the Oxy chip can be used to screen and predict bone forming potential of bone substitute materials. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: An oxygen permeable-culture chip (Oxy chip) can be used to induce formation of cell spheroids by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Use of the Oxy chip avoids hypoxia in the spheroid core and enhances MSC osteoblastic differentiation relative to conventional spheroid culture methods. The present study showed that the Oxy chip mimics the in vivo environment associated with bone formation and can be used to generate hybrid spheroids consisting of calcium phosphates and MSCs that are useful for analyzing cell differentiation mechanisms. Bone formation analysis following implantation of calcium phosphate materials in mouse calvaria defects showed positive correlation with the in vitro results. We propose that hybrid spheroids cultured on the Oxy chip can be used to screen and predict the bone forming potential of bone substitute materials.

Abstract
Previous studies have reported that octacalcium phosphate (OCP) enhances osteoblast differentiation and osteoclast formation during the hydrolysis process to hydroxyapatite (HA). However, the crystal phases that affect the crosstalk between osteoclasts and osteoblasts are unknown, which should determine the bone substitute material's property of OCP. The present study was designed to investigate whether the chemical composition and crystal structure of calcium phosphates affect osteoclast formation and the osteoclast-osteoblast crosstalk. Biodegradable β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) was used as the control material. Osteoclasts were cultured on HA/OCP or HA/TCP disks and their cellular responses were assessed. Both OCP and β-TCP had a similar ability to create multinucleated osteoclasts. However, OCP promoted the expression of complement component 3a (C3a), a positive coupling factor, in osteoclasts, whereas β-TCP enhanced that of EphrinB2 (EfnB2) and collagen triple helix repeat containing 1 (Cthrc1). During osteoclast culture, phosphate ions were released from the crystals, and OCP-HA conversion was advanced in HA/OCP mixtures and OCP. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed no remarkable changes in the crystal structures of HA/TCP mixtures and β-TCP before and after osteoclast culture. These results indicate that the distinct chemical environment induced by the calcium phosphate phases affects the crosstalk between osteoclasts and osteoblasts. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
The experimental data on calcium phosphates formation were collected in dilute solution at constant pH (7.40) and temperature (37.0 °C) at different levels of ionic strength (IS). The evolution of the solid phase formation is described in detail using a thermodynamic-kinetic model. The thermodynamic model takes into account all relevant chemical species as well as Posner's clusters; the kinetic model, based on the discretized population balance approach, accounts for the solid formation from solution. The experimental data are consistent with an initial formation of dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD, brushite), which dominates the nucleation rate, and its rapid transformation into octacalcium phosphate (OCP) or hydroxyapatite (HA), which dominates the growth rate. Depending on the experimental conditions and, including the influence of the IS level, OCP may be further transformed into apatite. The classical nucleation theory is able to describe the experimental results very well and the solid phase growth is limited by the diffusion of Ca2+ ions. The precipitation pathway described by a complete thermodynamic-kinetic model is expected to contribute to the understating of the in vivo osteogenesis. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The formation mechanism of calcium phosphates under biomimetic conditions is unraveled. The formation pathway is mathematically described based on a thermodynamic-kinetic model in which (i) the nucleation stages (primary and secondary) are dominated by the formation of dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) and (ii) the fast growth stage is limited by the diffusion of Ca2+ ions under the driving force of octacalcium phosphate (OCP), or hydroxyapatite (HA), solubility. The obtained solid phase seems correlated to the activity coefficient of phosphate ions, thus to the ionic strength and local phosphate speciation. The model, being able to highlight the details of the precipitation pathway, is expected to contribute to the understanding of the apatitic phase formation in the biomineralization-biodemineralization processes under in-vivo conditions.

Capacity of octacalcium phosphate to promote osteoblastic differentiation toward osteocytes in vitro. Acta Biomater 2018; 69:362-371. [PMID: 29378325 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2018.01.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 50] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2017] [Revised: 01/05/2018] [Accepted: 01/18/2018] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been shown to act as a nucleus for initial bone deposition and enhancing the early stages of osteoblastic differentiation. However, the effect on differentiation at the late stage into osteocytes has not been elucidated. The present study was designed to investigate whether OCP can promote the differentiation lineage from osteoblasts to late osteocytes using a clonal cell line IDG-SW3 compared to commercially available sintered β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and hydroxyapatite (HA) in a transwell cell culture. Special attention was paid to detect the progress of OCP hydrolysis associated with ionic dissolution products from this material. OCP induced the appearance of an alkaline phosphatase (ALP) peak in the IDG-SW3 cells compared to β-TCP and HA and increased SOST/sclerostin and FGF23 gene expression after 35 days of incubation. Analyses by X-ray diffraction, curve fitting of Fourier transform infrared spectra, and acid phosphate inclusion of the materials showed that OCP tended to hydrolyze to an apatitic structure during the incubation. Since the hydrolysis enhanced inorganic phosphate ion (Pi) release from OCP in the media, IDG-SW3 cells were further incubated in the conditioned media with an increased concentration of Pi in the presence or absence of phosphonoformic acid (PFA), which is an inhibitor of Pi transport within the cells. An increase in Pi concentration up to 1.5 mM raised ALP activity, while its positive effect was eliminated in the presence of 0.1 to 0.5 mM PFA. Calcium ions did not show such an effect. These results indicate the stimulatory capacity of OCP on osteoblastic differentiation toward osteocytes. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been shown to have a superior osteoconductivity due to its capacity to enhance initial stage of osteoblast differentiation. However, the effect of OCP on the late osteoblastic differentiation into osteocyte is unknown. This study showed the capacity associated with the structural change of OCP. The data show that OCP released inorganic phosphate (Pi) ions while the hydrolysis advanced if soaked in the media, determined by chemical and physical analyses, and enhanced osteocytes differentiation of IDG-SW3 cells more than hydroxyapatite (HA) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). Conditioned elevated Pi-containing media in the absence of OCP enhanced the osteocyte differentiation in the range of the concentration induced by OCP, the effect of which was cancelled by the inhibitor of Pi-transporters.

Abstract
Background: Previous studies showed that octacalcium (OCP) collagen composite (OCP/Col) can be used to repair human jaw bone defects without any associated abnormalities. The present study investigated whether OCP/Col could be applied to dental implant treatment using a dog tooth extraction socket model. Methods: The premolars of dogs were extracted; each extraction socket was extended, and titanium dental implants were placed in each socket. OCP/Col was inserted in the space around a titanium dental implant. Autologous bone was used to fill the other sockets, while the untreated socket (i.e., no bone substitute material) served as a control. Three months after the operation, these specimens were analyzed for the osseointegration of each bone substitute material with the surface of the titanium dental implant. Results: In histomorphometric analyses, the peri-implant bone areas (BA%) and bone-implant contact (BIC%) were measured. There was no difference in BA% or BIC% between OCP/Col and autologous bone. Conclusion: These results suggested that OCP/Col could be used for implant treatment as a bone substitute.

Abstract
In the present study, the Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) technique was applied to coat titanium for orthopaedic and dental implant applications. Calcium carbonate (CC) was used as starting coating material. The deposited CC films were transformed into octacalcium phosphate (OCP) by chemical treatments. The results of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies revealed that the final OCP thin films are formed on the titanium surface. Human myofibroblasts from peripheral vessels and the primary bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMMSs) were cultured on the investigated materials. It was shown that all the investigated samples had no short-term toxic effects on cells. The rate of division of myofibroblast cells growing on the surface and saturated BMMSs concentration for the OCP coating were about two times faster than of cells growing on the CC films.

Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate the local microenvironment of octacalcium phosphate in a granule form upon biomolecules adsorption utilizing an indicator-immobilized-gel-sheet for measuring pH. We previously showed that octacalcium phosphate enhances bone regeneration during its progressive hydrolysis into hydroxyapatite if implanted in bone defects. The gel-sheet was made from a photocrosslinkable prepolymer solution, which can easily immobilize a pH indicator (bromothymol blue; BTB) in the hydrogel. The indicator-immobilized-gel-sheet was mounted on a biochip which was made of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with a flow channel. The pH value was calculated by detecting the color changes in the gel-sheet and displayed as the pH distribution. After pre-adsorption of bovine albumin, β-lactoglobuline or cytochrome C onto octacalcium phosphate granules, the granules with the gel-sheet were further incubated in Tris-HCl buffer solution in the absence or presence of fluoride, known as an accelerator of octacalcium phosphate hydrolysis. pH values of the gel-sheet surrounding octacalcium phosphate granules showed a decrease from pH 7.4 to 6.6 in relation to the proteins adsorbed. Overall, the proposed pH-sensitive gel can be used to detect the pH around octacalcium phosphate granules with a high spatial resolution.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To improve the success rate of rotator cuff repair, we investigated whether octacalcium phosphate (OCP) with gelatin (Gel) vehicle had a positive effect on tendon-to-bone healing. METHODS We assessed the histologic characteristics of the tendon-to-bone healing using the rabbit rotator cuff repair model. We divided the shoulders into 3 groups: control (without OCP/Gel composite), OCP/Gel composite (OCP+group), and Gel alone without OCP (Gel group) to evaluate the effectiveness of gelatin. RESULTS Both the number of newly formed tendon fibers and the Sharpey fibers at the repair site increased in the OCP+group compared with those in the other 2 groups on hematoxylin-eosin staining (P < .05). On immunohistochemical evaluation, both the bone and the fibers in the OCP+group demonstrated that type I collagen was picked up, whereas the newly formed tendon fibers and Sharpey fibers revealed type III collagen. CONCLUSION Treatment with OCP made collagen fibers and the Sharpey fibers, constituted by type I and type III collagens, increase at the tendon-to-bone insertion. It might be beneficial for the healing of rotator cuff tendon to bone.

Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate the extent of osteoconductive property of a mechanical mixture of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP). OCP was mixed with ACP in granules that had a diameter of 300 and 500 μm, respectively, and at 25, 50, or 75 wt %. The physicochemical characteristics and the osteoconductive properties of the mixtures were compared with OCP alone or ACP alone through implantation into rat critical-sized calvaria defects for up to 12 weeks and simulated body fluid (SBF) immersion for 2 weeks. The mixtures of OCP and ACP, in particular the OCP 25 wt % and ACP 75 wt % (O25A75), had higher radiopacity compared to ACP and OCP alone. O25A75 induced greater enhancement of bone regeneration than ACP alone at 8 weeks and that than OCP alone at 12 weeks. X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analyses of the retrieved mixtures showed that ACP, OCP, and O25A75 tended to convert to hydroxyapatite (HA) after the implantation, while the structure of OCP remains without complete conversion after SBF immersion. Analyses by FTIR curve fitting of the solids and the degree of supersaturation of the SBF supported the observation that the existence of ACP enhances the kinetics of the conversion. Scanning electron microscopy found that the surface of O25A75 had distinct characteristics with OCP and ACP after SBF immersion. The results suggest that the extent of the osteoconduction of OCP could be controlled by the copresence of ACP most probably through the prevailing dissolution-precipitation of the surface of ACP crystals to form HA.

Abstract
Bioceramics are used to treat bone defects but in general do not induce formation of new bone, which is essential for regeneration process. Many aspects related to bioceramics synthesis, properties and biological response that are still unknown and, there is a great need for further development. In the most recent research efforts were aimed on creation of materials from biological precursors of apatite formation in humans. One possible precursor is octacalcium phosphate (OCP), which is believed to not only exhibit osteoconductivity but possess osteoinductive quality, the ability to induce bone formation. Here we propose a relatively simple route for OCP ceramics preparation with a specifically designed microstructure. Comprehensive study for OCP ceramics including biodegradation, osteogenic properties in ortopic and heterotopic models and limited clinical trials were performed that demonstrated enhanced biological behavior. Our results provide a possible new concept for the clinical applications of OCP ceramics.

Abstract
We have previously established a wet synthesis method of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) in a relatively large scale and found that OCP enhances bone formation more than synthetic hydroxyapatite (HA) if implanted onto bone surface and various bone defects. The present paper reviews, based on our studies, as to how OCP controls in vitro cellular activities of bone-related cells, such as bone marrow stromal cells, and how OCP enhances bone repair in critical sized bone defect experimentally created in animal models. OCP tends to progressively convert to HA in culture media and in rat calvaria defects. OCP is capable of enhancing in vitro osteoblast differentiation and osteoclast formation in the presence of osteoblasts. Recent our studies also indicated that OCP enhances odontoblast differentiation while suppresses chondrogenic differentiation. The physicochemical properties, such as chemical composition and adsorption affinity of serum proteins, vary depending on the advancement of conversion from OCP to HA, which suggests that the change on the surface property during the conversion of OCP may affect the cellular responses in vitro and tissue reaction in vivo. OCP could be used as a scaffold material that can control the activity of bone-related cells.

Abstract
We have previously demonstrated that octacalcium phosphate (OCP) collagen composite (OCP/collagen) promotes bone regeneration in a critical-sized bone defect of a rodent or canine model. This study was designed to investigate the bone regeneration of OCP/collagen in human bone defect as a first clinical trial. Two patients who had a radicular cyst or apical periodontitis consented to participate in our clinical study, and OCP/collagen was implanted into the defects after operation. Radiographic examination showed effective bone healing in each bone defect at 3 or 6 months. Likewise, computed tomography value significantly increased after implantation. Postoperative wound healing was uneventful, and neither infection nor allergic reaction against OCP/collagen was observed for the entire period. This study demonstrated that OCP/collagen would be safely used and enhanced bone regeneration in human bone defects. To reinforce the efficacy of OCP/collagen as a bone substitute material, it should be compared with other suitable comparators in the future.

Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate whether three sodium hyaluronic acid (HyA) medical products, Artz(®), Suvenyl(®) and a chemically modified derivative of sodium HyA Synvisc(®), can be used as suitable vehicles for an osteoconductive octacalcium phosphate (OCP). OCP granules (300-500 μm diameter) were mixed with these sodium HyAs with molecular weights of 90 × 10(4) (Artz(®)), 190 × 10(4) (Suvenyl(®)) and 600 × 10(4) (Synvisc(®)) (referred to as HyA90, HyA190 and HyA600, respectively). OCP-HyA composites were injected using a syringe into a polytetrafluoroethylene ring, placed on the subperiosteal region of mouse calvaria for 3 and 6 weeks, and then bone formation was assessed by histomorphometry. The capacity of the HyAs for osteoclast formation from RAW264 cells with RANKL was examined by TRAP staining in vitro. Bone formation was enhanced by the OCP composites with HyA90 and HyA600, compared to OCP alone, through enhanced osteoclastic resorption of OCP. HyA90 and HyA600 facilitated in vitro osteoclast formation. The results suggest that the osteoconductive property of OCP was accelerated by the HyAs-associated osteoclastic resorption of OCP, and therefore that HyA/OCP composites are attractive bone substitutes which are injectable and bioactive materials.

Structural, morphological and surface characteristics of two types of octacalcium phosphate-derived fluoride-containing apatitic calcium phosphates. Acta Biomater 2012; 8:4417-25.

Abstract
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been reported to stimulate bone regeneration during hydrolysis into hydroxyapatite (HA). The present study was designed to characterize structural, morphological and surface properties of fluoride-containing apatitic calcium phosphates (CaP) obtained through OCP hydrolysis or direct precipitation of OCP in the presence of 12-230ppm of fluoride (F). The products were characterized by chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) as well as measurements of surface area, solubility, osteoblastic activities and bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption. XRD analysis re-confirmed that both preparations yielded more apatitic CaP with a higher concentration of F. However, the co-precipitated products (CF-CaP) maintained the properties of OCP, in particular the solubility, whereas the hydrolysis products (HF-CaP) had the characteristics of fluoridated apatite. The crystals of plate-like OCP were changed to the crystals of rod-like CF-CaP and small irregular HF-CaP with the advance of the hydrolysis. The SAED analysis detected both OCP and apatite crystals even in the most hydrolyzed CF-CaP. Mouse bone marrow stromal ST-2 cells grew better on CF-CaP compared with HF-CaP. BSA adsorption was inhibited on HF-CaP more than on CF-CaP. These results show that OCP produces physicochemically distinct apatitic fluoridated CaP during hydrolysis, regarding the structure, the crystal morphology and the protein adsorption, depending on the fluoride introduction route, which provides biologically interesting material.

Abstract
Simple, mild, and area-specific calcium phosphate (CaP) coating techniques are useful for the production and surface modification of biomaterials. In this study, an area-specific CaP coating technique for polymer substrates was successfully developed using a liquid-phase laser process. In the proposed method, Nd-YAG laser light (355 nm, 30 Hz, and 1-3 W) irradiated an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) substrate immersed in a supersaturated CaP solution for various periods of time (up to 30 min). The CaP-forming ability increased with an increase in the laser power and irradiation period. At the optimal laser power (3 W), a continuous CaP layer formed within 30 min on the laser-irradiated surface of the EVOH substrate. The formation of CaP was attributed to laser absorption by the EVOH substrate, which promoted the surface modification of EVOH and an increase in the temperature of the solution near the surface of the substrate. The resulting CaP coating showed better cell adhesion property than the naked EVOH substrate. The proposed CaP coating technique is simple (quick and single step) and area specific. Furthermore, the present process is carried out under mild conditions, that is, at normal pressures and temperatures in a safe aqueous medium. These are significant advantages of the proposed CaP coating technique.

Abstract
The present study was designed to determine whether the osteoconductivity of octacalcium phosphate-collagen (OCP/Col) composite can be improved by controlling the granule size of OCP. The granules of synthetic OCP, with diameters in the range of 53 to 300, 300 to 500, and 500 to 1000 μm, were used as an inorganic source of composite materials mixed with atelo-Col. After vacuum dehydrothemal treatment, OCP/Col disks were implanted into critical-sized calvaria defects in Wistar rats for 4, 8, and 12 weeks and examined radiographically, histologically, histomorphometrically, and histochemically. The materials were characterized according to mercury intrusion porosimetry and scanning electron microscopy. X-ray diffraction was performed before and after implantation. The dissolution of OCP crystals in a Col matrix was determined by immersing OCP/Col disks in a culture medium. OCP/Col had a constant pore size (~30 μm) regardless of OCP granule size. OCP in the Col matrix tended to convert to hydroxyapatite (HA) during the implantation. OCP/Col with the smallest granules of OCP enhances both bone regeneration and biodegradation the most through tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive osteoclastic cellular resorption of OCP granules. The smallest OCP granules in the Col matrix showed the highest dissolution and had the greatest potential to form HA. The results indicated that the size of the included OCP granules can controll the osteoconductivity of OCP/Col. The overall results suggest that the physicochemical property of OCP crystals is a factor that determines the bone regenerative capacity of OCP/Col in critical-sized calvaria large bone defects in rats.

Abstract
In this study, the phase development in the cement system α-TCP–OCP with phosphoric acid as a setting liquid was studied. The most promising formulation of α-TCP (60 wt%) and OCP (40 wt%) is proposed. This cement has the following characteristics: setting time 10 min, pH = 6.7, the compressive strength about 30 MPa, and high dissolution rate in an isotonic solution; the final wt% composition of α-TCP/DCPD/HA/OCP equals 27/38/20/15. Energy dispersive X-ray diffraction techniques were used for in situ monitoring of the processes taking place in the cement in real time.

Abstract
Octacalcium phosphate (OCP), which is structurally similar to hydroxyapatite (HA), is a possible precursor of bone apatite crystals. Although disagreement remains as to whether OCP comprises the initial mineral crystals in the early stage of bone mineralization, the results of recent biomaterial studies using synthetic OCP indicate the potential role of OCP as a bone substitute material, owing to its highly osteoconductive and biodegradable characteristics. OCP tends to convert to HA not only in an in vitro environment, but also as an implant in bone defects. Several lines of evidence from both in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that the conversion process could be involved in the stimulatory capacity of OCP for osteoblastic differentiation and osteoclast formation. However, the osteoconductivity of OCP cannot always be secured if an OCP with distinct crystal characteristics is used, because the stoichiometry and microstructure of OCP crystals greatly affect bone-regenerative properties. Osteoconductivity and stimulatory capabilities may be caused by the chemical characteristics of OCP, which allows the release or exchange of calcium and phosphate ions with the surrounding of this salt, and its tendency to grow towards specific crystal faces, which could be a variable of the synthesis condition. This paper reviews the effect of calcium phosphates on osteoblastic activity and bone regeneration, with a special emphasis on OCP, since OCP seems to be performing better than other calcium phosphates in vivo.

Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate whether the formation of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) is accelerated on titanium (Ti) surface by an electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) plasma oxidation at various pressures and temperatures. X-ray diffraction (XRD) of Ti-oxidized substrates showed that the rutile TiO(2) phase on its surfaces appeared at 300 degrees C and was crystallized when the oxidation temperature increased up to 600 degrees C. The thickness of TiO(2) film on the substrates increased progressively as the temperature increased. The oxidized Ti surfaces were soaked in calcium and phosphate solutions supersaturated with respect to both hydroxyapatite (HA) and OCP but slightly supersaturated with dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD). OCP crystals with a blade-like morphology were deposited as the primary crystalline phase on Ti substrates, while DCPD was included as a minor constituent. The amount of OCP deposition was maximized under 0.015 Pa in 300 degrees C. On the other hand, the oxidation temperature did not show a significant effect on the deposit in the range examined. The phase conversion from OCP to HA, determined by XRD, was demonstrated to occur even at 1 day and to advance until 7 days by immersing the Ti substrate with the deposit in simulated body fluid at 37 degrees C. The present results suggest that ECR plasma oxidation could be used to improve a Ti surface regarding its bioactivity due to the enhancement of osteoconductive OCP deposition.

Abstract
The present study was designed to investigate whether the amount of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) affects the characteristics of alginate (Alg)/OCP scaffolds regarding the pore formation and its distribution, and the thermodynamic stability from OCP to hydroxyapatite (HA) in an in vitro physiological environment. Alg/OCP composites with weight ratios of 100/0, 75/25, 50/50, and 25/75 were prepared through mixing the ground synthesized OCP crystals with an Alg solution and applying lyophilization. Analysis of X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and mercury intrusion porosimetry verified that the crystalline phase of OCP and the porosities were retained regardless of the OCP amount. On the other hand, the elastic modulus, determined by mechanical testing, and, interestingly, the pore size increased with increasing the OCP amount. The immersion of the composites in a simulated body fluid up to 14 days revealed that OCP in Alg matrices tends to convert to HA with enhancing the calcium consumption depending on the OCP amount. The results indicated that the inclusion of OCP crystals in the Alg matrix by the mixing process controls the character of the pore distribution in Alg/OCP composites while maintaining the transitory nature of OCP.

Abstract
Synthetic octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been shown to enhance bone formation and to biodegrade if implanted into bone defects. Here, we hypothesized that an OCP-atelocollagen complex (OCP/Col) is biodegradable and can induce bone formation in a thickness-dependent manner when implanted into the calvaria. OCP/Col disks (diameter, 9 mm; thickness, 1 or 3 mm) were implanted into a subperiosteal pocket in the calvaria of 12-week-old Wistar rats for 4, 8, and 12 weeks and subsequent bone formation was monitored. X-ray diffraction analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed that OCP in the OCP/Col implants was converted into a carbonate-rich apatite after 4 weeks. Although thinner disks tended to be replaced by new bone, thicker disks were progressively resorbed by osteoclast-like cells until 12 weeks, possibly via the increased mechanical load in the subperiosteal pocket. Therefore, OCP/Col can increase appositional intra-membranous bone formation if the appropriate size of the implant is applied.

Intramembranous bone tissue response to biodegradable octacalcium phosphate implant. Acta Biomater 2009; 5:1756-66.

Abstract
Previous studies showed that synthetic octacalcium phosphate (OCP) enhances bone formation coupled with its own osteoclastic biodegradation more than non-biodegradable hydroxyapatite (HA), including sintered HA ceramic, when implanted in animal bone defects. The present study was designed to investigate whether synthetic OCP in granule form has biodegradable characteristics when implanted in the subperiosteal area of mouse calvaria in comparison with non-sintered stoichiometric HA, especially in relatively short periods after implantation. OCP crystals exhibited plate-like morphology, whereas HA crystals had a sphere-like structure. Both crystals had large pore volumes >75% in total, with micropores within the granules. Direct bonding of newly formed bone was discernible in HA until 35 days after implantation by element analysis for calcium and phosphorus. However, histomorphometric analysis demonstrated that bone formation was facilitated on OCP surfaces with greater alkaline phosphatase activity than on HA up to 21 days. The surfaces attacked by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase positive osteoclast-like cells were significantly greater than those of HA. OCP became encapsulated and replaced with new bone with prolonged implantation periods up to 180 days. The results suggest that the enhanced bone formation in mouse calvaria could be associated with the biodegradable nature of OCP, and that OCP could be used in augmenting intramembranous bone volume.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown that synthetic octacalcium phosphate (OCP) facilitates in vitro osteoblastic cell differentiation in an OCP dose-dependent manner and that a complex of OCP and collagen (OCP/collagen) enhances critical-sized rat calvaria defects more than OCP alone. The present study was designed to investigate whether the bone regenerative properties of OCP/collagen are augmented in an OCP dose-dependent manner, thereby establishing a suitable composition of this composite as a bone substitute material. OCP/collagens with a wide range of mixing ratios from 23:77 to 83:17, including the previously examined composition (77:23), were prepared by blending granules of OCP with atelocollagen and molded into a disk as an implant. A critical-sized defect was made in rat calvaria, and each disk was implanted into the defect for 4 or 12 weeks and then examined radiographically, histologically, and histomorphometrically. Mouse bone marrow-derived stromal ST-2 cells were cultured in dishes pre-coated with OCP/collagen or OCP alone with different OCP contents to determine the capacity of cell attachment and proliferation up to 14 days. Histological and radiographic examinations showed that newly formed bone was observed in relation to OCP granules within the collagen matrix. Histomorphometric analysis confirmed that increasing the amount of OCP in collagen matrices resulted in progressive enhancement of bone regeneration and that the ratio 83:17 generated the maximum repair level of approximately 64% of the defect at 12 weeks. OCP/collagen promoted the proliferation and attachment of ST-2 cells more than OCP alone regardless of OCP content. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis of the coatings after the incubation indicated that OCP tended to convert to apatite regardless of the presence of collagen. The present study demonstrated that the osteoconductive characteristics of OCP/collagen can be displayed in an OCP dose-dependent manner. The results suggest that collagen promotes the proliferation and attachment of host osteoblastic cells on OCP/collagen composite implants.
