Abstract
Mg is a typical biodegradable metal widely used for biomedical applications due to its considerable mechanical properties and bioactivity. Biodegradable polymers have attracted great interest owing to their favorable processability and inclusiveness. However, it is challenging for the degradation rates of Mg or polymers to precisely match tissue repair processes, and the significant changes in local pH during degradation hinder tissue repair. The concept of combining Mg with polymers is proposed to overcome the shortcomings of materials, aiming to meet repair needs from various aspects such as mechanics and biology. Therefore, it is essential to systematically understand the behavior of biodegradable Mg/polymer composite (BMPC) from the design, manufacturing, mechanical properties, degradation, and biological effects. In this review, we elaborate on the design concepts and manufacturing strategies of high-strength BMPC, the "structure-function" relationship between the microstructures and mechanical properties of composites, the variation in the degradation rate due to endogenous and exogenous factors, and the establishment of advanced degradation research platform. Additionally, the interplay among composite components during degradation and the biological function of composites under non-responsive/stimuli-responsive platforms are also discussed. Finally, we hope that this review will benefit future clinical applications of "structure-function" integrated biomaterials.

An injectable magnesium-coordinated phosphate chitosan-based hydrogel loaded with vancomycin for antibacterial and osteogenesis in the treatment of osteomyelitis. Regen Biomater 2024; 11:rbae049. [PMID: 38919844 PMCID: PMC11196881 DOI: 10.1093/rb/rbae049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Microbial infections of bones, particularly after joint replacement surgery, are a common occurrence in clinical settings and often lead to osteomyelitis (OM). Unfortunately, current treatment approaches for OM are not satisfactory. To address this issue, this study focuses on the development and evaluation of an injectable magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticle (NP)-coordinated phosphocreatine-grafted chitosan hydrogel (CMPMg-VCM) loaded with varying amounts of vancomycin (VCM) for the treatment of OM. The results demonstrate that the loading of VCM does not affect the formation of the injectable hydrogel, and the MgO-incorporated hydrogel exhibits anti-swelling properties. The release of VCM from the hydrogel effectively kills S.aureus bacteria, with CMPMg-VCM (50) showing the highest antibacterial activity even after prolonged immersion in PBS solution for 12 days. Importantly, all the hydrogels are non-toxic to MC3T3-E1 cells and promote osteogenic differentiation through the early secretion of alkaline phosphatase and calcium nodule formation. Furthermore, in vivo experiments using a rat OM model reveal that the CMPMg-VCM hydrogel effectively kills and inhibits bacterial growth, while also protecting the infected bone from osteolysis. These beneficial properties are attributed to the burst release of VCM, which disrupts bacterial biofilm, as well as the release of Mg ions and hydroxyl by the degradation of MgO NPs, which inhibits bacterial growth and prevents osteolysis. Overall, the CMPMg-VCM hydrogel exhibits promising potential for the treatment of microbial bone infections.

Abstract
Biomaterials are an important and integrated part of modern medicine, and their development and improvement are essential. The fundamental requirement of a biomaterial is found to be in its interaction with the surrounding environment, with which it must coexist. The aim of this study was to assess the biological characteristics of hydroxyapatite (HAp)-based coatings doped with Mg and Zn ions obtained by the pulsed galvanostatic electrochemical method on the surface of pure titanium (cp-Ti) functionalized with titanium dioxide nanotubes (NTs TiO2) obtained by anodic oxidation. The obtained results highlighted that the addition of Zn or Mg into the HAp structure enhances the in vitro response of the cp-Ti surface functionalized with NT TiO2. The contact angle and surface free energy showed that all the developed surfaces have a hydrophilic character in comparison with the cp-Ti surface. The HAp-based coatings doped with Zn registered superior values than the ones with Mg, in terms of biomineralization, electrochemical behavior, and cell interaction. Overall, it can be said that the addition of Mg or Zn can enhance the in vitro behavior of the HAp-based coatings in accordance with clinical requirements. Antibacterial tests showed that the proposed HAp-Mg coatings had no efficiency against Escherichia coli, while the HAp-Zn coatings registered the highest antibacterial efficiency.

Abstract
Magnesium-based coatings have attracted great attention in surface modification of titanium implants due to their superior angiogenic and osteogenic properties. However, their biological effects as a carbonate-based constituent remain unrevealed. In this study, magnesium carbonate coatings were prepared on titanium surfaces under hydrothermal conditions and subsequently treated with hydrogen peroxide. Also, their antibacterial activity and in vitro cell biocompatibility were evaluated. The obtained coatings consisted of nanoparticles without cracks and exhibited excellent adhesion to the substrate. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results indicated pure magnesium carbonate coatings formed on the Ti surface after hydrothermal treatment. After hydrogen peroxide treatment, the phase composition of the coatings had no obvious change. Compared to the untreated coatings, the hydrogen peroxide-treated coatings showed increased surface roughness and hydrophilicity. Co-culture with Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) demonstrated that the obtained coatings had good antibacterial activity. In vitro cell culture results showed that the hydrogen peroxide-treated coatings enhanced the viability, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). These findings suggest that this MgCO3-based coating exhibits excellent antibacterial performance and osteogenic potential. Based on the above, this study provides a simple method for preparing titanium implants with dual antibacterial and osteogenic capabilities, holding great promise in clinical applications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the biocompatibility, osteogenic and antibacterial activity of biomedical devices based on Magnesium (Mg) Alloys manufactured by Superplastic Forming process (SPF) and subjected to Hydrothermal (HT) and Sol-Gel Treatment (Sol-Gel). METHODS Mg-SPF devices subjected to Hydrothermal (Mg-SPF+HT) and Sol-Gel Treatment (Mg-SPF+Sol-Gel) were investigated. The biocompatibility of Mg-SPF+Sol-Gel and Mg-SPF+HT devices was observed by indirect and direct cytotoxicity assays, whereas the colonization of sample surfaces was assessed by confocal microscopy. qRT-PCR analysis and microbial growth curve analyses were employed to evaluate the osteogenic and antibacterial activity of both SPF-Mg treated devices, respectively. RESULTS Mg-SPF+HT and Mg-SPF+Sol-Gel showed a high degree of biocompatibility. Analysis of mRNA expression of osteogenic genes in cells cultured on Mg-treated devices revealed a significant upregulation of the expression levels of BMP2 and Runx-2. Furthermore, the bacterial growth in strains developed in contact with both the Mg-SPF+HT and Mg-SPF+Sol-Gel devices was lower than that observed in the control. SIGNIFICANCE Hydrothermal and Sol-Gel Treatments of Mg alloys obtained through the SPF process demonstrated bioactive, osteogenic and antibacterial activity, offering a promising alternative to conventional Mg-based devices. The obtained Mg-based materials may have the potential to enhance the tunability of temporary devices in maxillary reconstruction, eliminating the need for second surgeries, and ensuring a good bone reconstruction and a reduced implant failure rate due to bacterial infections.

Abstract
Infectious chronic wounds have gradually become a major clinical problem due to their high prevalence and poor treatment outcomes. The urgent need for wound dressings with immune modulatory, antibacterial, and angiogenic properties has led to the development of innovative solutions. Asiatic acid (AA), derived from herbs, has demonstrated excellent antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and angiogenic effects, making it a promising candidate for incorporation into hydrogel carriers for wound healing. However, there is currently no available report on AA-based self-assembled hydrogels. Here, a novel hybrid hydrogel dressing consists of interpenetrating polymer networks composed of self-assembled magnesium ion (Mg2+) coordinated asiatic acid (AA-Mg) and bacterial cellulose (BC) is developed to promote infected chronic wound healing. A natural carrier-free self-assembled AA-Mg hydrogel with good injectable and self-healing properties could maintain the sustained release of AA and Mg2+ over an extended period. Notably, the introduction of Mg2+ boosted some pharmacological effects of self-assembled hydrogels due to its excellent anti-inflammatory and angiogenesis. In vitro studies confirmed the exceptional biocompatibility, antibacterial efficacy, and anti-inflammatory potential of the AA-Mg/BC hybrid hydrogel, which also exhibited a commendable mechanical strength. Furthermore, in vivo biological results displayed that the hybrid hydrogel significantly accelerated the wound healing process by boosting dense and organized collagen deposition and the granulation tissue and benefiting revascularization. The introduced self-assembled AA-Mg-based hydrogel offers a promising solution for the effective management of chronic wounds. This universal strategy for the preparation of self-assembled hydrogels modulated with bioactive divalent metal ions is able to excavate more herbal small molecules to construct new self-assembled biomaterials.

Abstract
Commercially available guided bone regeneration (GBR) membranes often exhibit limited mechanical properties or bioactivity, leading to poor performance in repairing bone defects. To surmount this limitation, we developed a Janus structural composite membrane (Mg-MgO/PCL) reinforced by dual Mg (Mg sheets and MgO NPs) by using a combined processing technique involving casting and electrospinning. Results showed that the addition of Mg sheets and MgO NPs enhanced the mechanical properties of the composite membrane for osteogenic space maintenance, specifically tensile strength (from 10.2 ± 1.2 to 50.3 ± 4.5 MPa) and compression force (from 0 to 0.94 ± 0.09 N mm-1), through Mg sheet reinforcement and improved crystallization. The dense cast side of the Janus structure membrane displayed better fibroblast barrier capacity than a single fiber structure; meanwhile, the PCL matrix protected the Mg sheet from severe corrosion due to predeformation. The porous microfibers side supported preosteoblast cell adhesion, enhanced osteogenesis, and angiogenesis in vitro, through the biomimetic extracellular matrix and sustainable Mg2+ release. Furthermore, the Mg-MgO/PCL membrane incorporating 2 wt % MgO NPs exhibited remarkable antimicrobial properties, inducing over 88.75% apoptosis in Staphylococcus aureus. An in vivo experiment using the rat skull defect model (Φ = 5 mm) confirmed that the Mg-MgO/PCL membrane significantly improved new bone formation postsurgery. Collectively, our investigation provides valuable insights into the design of multifunctional membranes for clinical oral GBR application.

Abstract
Magnesium phosphate cement (MPC) is a suitable alternative for the currently used calcium phosphates, owing to beneficial properties like favorable resorption rate, fast hardening, and higher compressive strength. However, due to insufficient mechanical properties and high brittleness, further improvement is still expected. In this paper, we reported the preparation of a novel type of dual-setting cement based on MPC with poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA). The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of HEMA addition, especially its concentration and premix time, on the selected properties of the composite. Several beneficial effects were found: better formability, shortened setting time, and improvement of mechanical strengths. The developed cements were hardening in ∼16-21 min, consisted of well-crystallized phases and polymerized HEMA, had porosity between ∼2-11%, degraded slowly by ∼0.1-4%/18 days, their wettability was ∼20-30°, they showed compressive and bending strength between ∼45-73 and 13-20 MPa, respectively, and, finally, their Young's Modulus was close to ∼2.5-3.0 GPa. The results showed that the optimal cement composition is MPC+15%HEMA and 4 min of polymer premixing time. Overall, our research suggested that this developed cement may be used in various biomedical applications.

Accumulative Rolling Mg/PLLA Composite Membrane with Lamellar Heterostructure for Enhanced Bacteria Inhibition and Rapid Bone Regeneration. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2023; 19:e2301638. [PMID: 37345962 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202301638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Revised: 05/19/2023] [Indexed: 06/23/2023]
Abstract
Developing composite materials with optimized mechanics, degradation, and bioactivity for bone regeneration has long been a crucial mission. Herein, a multifunctional Mg/Poly-l-lactic acid (Mg/PLLA) composite membrane based on the "materials plain" concept through the accumulative rolling (AR) method is proposed. Results show that at a rolling ratio of 75%, the comprehensive mechanical properties of the membrane in the rolling direction are self-reinforced significantly (elongation at break ≈53.2%, tensile strength ≈104.0 MPa, Young's modulus ≈2.13 GPa). This enhancement is attributed to the directional arrangement and increased crystallization of PLLA molecular chains, as demonstrated by SAXS and DSC results. Furthermore, the AR composite membrane presents a lamellar heterostructure, which not only avoids the accumulation of Mg microparticles (MgMPs) but also regulates the degradation rate. Through the contribution of bioactive MgMPs and their photothermal effect synergistically, the membrane effectively eliminates bacterial infection and accelerates vascularized bone regeneration both in vitro and in vivo. Notably, the membrane exhibits outstanding rat skull bone regeneration performance in only 4 weeks, surpassing most literature reports. In short, this work develops a composite membrane with a "one stone, four birds" effect, opening an efficient avenue toward high-performance orthopedic materials.

Abstract
Biodegradable magnesium (Mg) alloys have been extensively investigated in orthopedic implants due to their suitable mechanical strength and high biocompatibility. However, no studies have reported whether Mg alloys can be used to repair lamina defects, and the biological mechanisms regulating osteogenesis are not fully understood. The present study developed a lamina reconstruction device using our patented biodegradable Mg-Nd-Zn-Zr alloy (JDBM), and brushite (CaHPO4·2H2O, Dicalcium phosphate dihydrate, DCPD) coating was developed on the implant. Through in vitro and in vivo experiments, we evaluated the degradation behavior and biocompatibility of DCPD-JDBM. In addition, we explored the potential molecular mechanisms by which it regulates osteogenesis. In vitro, ion release and cytotoxicity tests revealed that DCPD-JDBM had better corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. We found that DCPD-JDBM extracts could promote MC3T3-E1 osteogenic differentiation via the IGF2/PI3K/AKT pathway. The lamina reconstruction device was implanted on a rat lumbar lamina defect model. Radiographic and histological analysis showed that DCPD-JDBM accelerated the repair of rat lamina defects and exhibited lower degradation rate compared to uncoated JDBM. Immunohistochemical and qRT-PCR results showed that DCPD-JDBM promoted osteogenesis in rat laminae via IGF2/PI3K/AKT pathway. This study shows that DCPD-JDBM is a promising biodegradable Mg-based material with great potential for clinical applications.

Abstract
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) membranes are commonly used for periodontal tissue regeneration. Due to the complications of existing GBR membranes, the design of bioactive membranes is still relevant. GBR membranes with an asymmetric structure can accommodate the functional requirements of different interfacial tissues. Here, poly(lactic acid-glycolic acid) (PLGA) was selected as the matrix for preparing a bi-layered membrane with both dense and porous structure. The dense layer for blocking soft tissues was incorporated with zinc (Zn) particles, while the porous layer for promoting bone regeneration was co-incorporated with magnesium (Mg) and Zn particles. Mg/Zn-embedded PLGA membranes exhibited 166% higher mechanical strength in comparison with pure PLGA membranes and showed suitable degradation properties with a sequential ion release behavior of Mg2+ first and continuously Zn2+. More importantly, the release of Zn2+ from bi-layered PLGA endowed GBR membranes with excellent antibacterial activity (antibacterial rate > 69.3%) as well as good cytocompatibility with MC3T3-E1 (mouse calvaria pre-osteoblastic cells) and HGF-1 (human gingival fibroblast cells). Thus, the asymmetric bi-layered PLGA membranes embedded with Mg and Zn particles provide a simple and effective strategy to not only reinforce the PLGA membrane but also endow membranes with osteogenic and antibacterial activity due to the continuous ion release profile, which serves as a promising candidate for use in GBR therapy.

Abstract
Due to their high porosity, large specific surface area, and structural similarity with the extracellular matrix (ECM), electrospun nanofiber membranes are often endowed with the antibacterial properties for biomedical applications. The purpose of this study was to synthesize nano-structured Sc2O3-MgO by doping Sc3+, calcining at 600 °C, and then loading it onto the PCL/PVP substrates with electrospinning technology with the aim of developing new efficient antibacterial nanofiber membranes for tissue engineering. A scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) were used to study the morphology of all formulations and analyze the types and contents of the elements, and an X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier transform attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) were used for further analysis. The experimental results showed that the PCL/PVP (SMCV-2.0) nanofibers loaded with 2.0 wt% Sc2O3-MgO were smooth and homogeneous with an average diameter of 252.6 nm; the antibacterial test indicated that a low load concentration of 2.0 wt% Sc2O3-MgO in PCL/PVP (SMCV-2.0) showed a 100% antibacterial rate against Escherichia coli (E. coli).

Abstract
Antibacterial membranes have attracted researchers' interest in recent years as a possible approach for dealing with biofouling on the membrane surface. This research aims to see if blending AZ63 Mg alloy into a polyethersulphone (PES) membrane can improve antifouling and separation properties. The composite membranes' pure water flux continued to increase from pristine PES to PES/AZ63 2.00 wt%. The results showed that PES/AZ63 2.00 wt% membrane supplied the highest permeate flux of E. coli. The steady-state fluxes of AZ63 composite membranes were 113.24, 104.38 and 44.79 L/m2h for PES/AZ63 2.00 wt%, 1.00 wt%, and 0.50 wt%, respectively. The enhanced biological activity of AZ63 was studied based on antioxidant activity, DNA cleavage, antimicrobial, anti-biofilm, bacterial viability inhibition and photodynamic antimicrobial therapy studies. The maximum DPPH scavenging activity was determined as 81.25% with AZ63. AZ63 indicated good chemical nuclease activity and also showed moderate antimicrobial activity against studied strains. The highest biofilm inhibition of AZ63 was 83.25% and 71.63% towards P. aeruginosa and S. aureus, respectively. The cell viability inhibition activity of AZ63 was found as 96.34% against E. coli. The photodynamic antimicrobial therapy results displayed that AZ63 demonstrated 100% bacterial inhibition when using E. coli.

Abstract
Hydrogels, with a three-dimensional network of water-soluble polymer and water, could simulate the critical properties of extracellular matrix, which has been widely used in bone tissue engineering. However, most of conventional hydrogels for bone regeneration are fragile and have poor osteogenic activity, which restricts their applications. In this work, a novel nanoparticle-hydrogel composite consisting of physically cross-linked double-network loaded with MgO-Ag2O nanocomposites was developed by the sol-gel method. The Mg2+ released from MgO-Ag2O nanocomposites was used as an ionic cross-linking site of sodium alginate (SA), while the hydrophobic micelles in the polyacrylamide (PAAM) network is acted as another crosslinking point. The results indicated that the novel nanoparticle-hydrogel composites had good self-recovery ability and excellent mechanical properties compared with the conventional sodium alginate (SA)/polyacrylamide (PAAM) hydrogels. Additionally, it showed a slow release of Mg and Ag ions due to the dual function of the embedding effect of hydrogels and the increasing pH of the solution induced by the hydrolysis of sodium alginate. In terms of in vitro tests, the nanoparticle-hydrogel composites showed significantly stimulatory effects on the proliferation and differentiation of SaOS-2 cells. In addition, the antibacterial effects of the nanoparticle-hydrogel composites were gradually enhanced with the increase of MgO-Ag2O content.

Abstract
Lumbar fusion often remains the last treatment option for various acute and chronic spinal conditions, including infectious and degenerative diseases. Placement of a cage in the intervertebral space has become a routine clinical treatment for spinal fusion surgery to provide sufficient biomechanical stability, which is required to achieve bony ingrowth of the implant. Routinely used cages for clinical application are made of titanium (Ti) or polyetheretherketone (PEEK). Ti has been used since the 1980s; however, its shortcomings, such as impaired radiographical opacity and higher elastic modulus compared to bone, have led to the development of PEEK cages, which are associated with reduced stress shielding as well as no radiographical artefacts. Since PEEK is bioinert, its osteointegration capacity is limited, which in turn enhances fibrotic tissue formation and peri-implant infections. To address shortcomings of both of these biomaterials, interdisciplinary teams have developed biodegradable cages. Rooted in promising preclinical large animal studies, a hollow cylindrical cage (Hydrosorb™) made of 70:30 poly-l-lactide-co-d, l-lactide acid (PLDLLA) was clinically studied. However, reduced bony integration and unfavourable long-term clinical outcomes prohibited its routine clinical application. More recently, scaffold-guided bone regeneration (SGBR) with application of highly porous biodegradable constructs is emerging. Advancements in additive manufacturing technology now allow the cage designs that match requirements, such as stiffness of surrounding tissues, while providing long-term biomechanical stability. A favourable clinical outcome has been observed in the treatment of various bone defects, particularly for 3D-printed composite scaffolds made of medical-grade polycaprolactone (mPCL) in combination with a ceramic filler material. Therefore, advanced cage design made of mPCL and ceramic may also carry initial high spinal forces up to the time of bony fusion and subsequently resorb without clinical side effects. Furthermore, surface modification of implants is an effective approach to simultaneously reduce microbial infection and improve tissue integration. We present a design concept for a scaffold surface which result in osteoconductive and antimicrobial properties that have the potential to achieve higher rates of fusion and less clinical complications. In this review, we explore the preclinical and clinical studies which used bioresorbable cages. Furthermore, we critically discuss the need for a cutting-edge research program that includes comprehensive preclinical in vitro and in vivo studies to enable successful translation from bench to bedside. We develop such a conceptual framework by examining the state-of-the-art literature and posing the questions that will guide this field in the coming years.

Abstract
To study the abnormal failure of magnesium anodes for buried pipelines in marine engineering in the unique environment of mudflats, a strain of a sulfate–reducing prokaryote (SRP) was isolated from pipe–laying soil, and identified as Desulfovibrio sp. HQM3. Weight–loss test, electrochemical measurements, SEM, EDS, XRD, and CLSM techniques were used to study the effect of corrosion on the AZ31B magnesium alloy. Under the influence of SRP, the magnesium alloy corroded severely at rates up to 1.31 mm/year in the mudflat environment. SRP accelerated corrosion by 0.3mm/year. Pitting occurred on the samples in both abiotic and biotic systems. The pitting depth reached 163.47 μm in the biotic system after 14 days. The main composition of a petal–like corrosion product was Mg(OH)2. The results show that a mudflat environment can lead to an accelerated corrosion of magnesium alloys.

Construction of a magnesium hydroxide/graphene oxide/hydroxyapatite composite coating on Mg–Ca–Zn–Ag alloy to inhibit bacterial infection and promote bone regeneration. Bioact Mater 2022; 18:354-367.

Abstract
The improved corrosion resistance, osteogenic activity, and antibacterial ability are the key factors for promoting the large-scale clinical application of magnesium (Mg)-based implants. In the present study, a novel nanocomposite coating composed of inner magnesium hydroxide, middle graphene oxide, and outer hydroxyapatite (Mg(OH)2/GO/HA) is constructed on the surface of Mg-0.8Ca–5Zn-1.5Ag by a combined strategy of hydrothermal treatment, electrophoretic deposition, and electrochemical deposition. The results of material characterization and electrochemical corrosion test showed that all the three coatings have high bonding strength, hydrophilicity and corrosion resistance. In vitro studies show that Mg(OH)2 indeed improves the antibacterial activity of the substrate. The next GO and GO/HA coating procedures both promote the osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells and show no harm to the antibacterial activity of Mg(OH)2 coating, but the latter exhibits the best promoting effect. In vivo studies demonstrate that the Mg alloy with the composite coating not only ameliorates osteolysis induced by bacterial invasion but also promotes bone regeneration under both normal and infected conditions. The current study provides a promising surface modification strategy for developing multifunctional Mg-based implants with good corrosion resistance, antibacterial ability and osteogenic activity to enlarge their biomedical applications. A Mg(OH)2/GO/HA composite coating with high bonding strength was constructed on the surface of Mg–Ca–Zn–Ag alloy. The outer HA layer with excellent osteogenic activity recovered the high corrosion resistance of inner Mg(OH)2 layer. The Mg(OH)2/GO/HA composite coating promoted new bone regeneration significantly under both normal and infected conditions.

Abstract
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a biocompatible polymer, but its clinical application is largely limited due to its inert surface. To solve this problem, a multifunctional PEEK implant is urgently fabricated. In this work, a dual-metal-organic framework (Zn-Mg-MOF74) coating is bonded to PEEK using a mussel-inspired polydopamine interlayer to prepare the coating, and then, dexamethasone (DEX) is loaded on the coating surface. The PEEK surface with the multifunctional coating provides superior hydrophilicity and favorable stability and forms an alkaline microenvironment when Mg2+, Zn2+, 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid, and DEX are released due to the coating degradation. In vitro results showed that the multifunctional coating has strong antibacterial ability against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus; it also improves human umbilical vein endothelial cell angiogenic ability and enhances rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell osteogenic differentiation activity. Furthermore, the in vivo rat subcutaneous infection model, chicken chorioallantoic membrane model, and rat femoral drilling model verify that the PEEK implant coated with the multifunctional coating has strong antibacterial and angiogenic ability and promotes the formation of new bone around the implant with a stronger bone-implant interface. Our findings indicate that DEX loaded on the Zn-Mg-MOF74 coating-modified PEEK implant with bacteriostasis, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis properties has great clinical application potential as bone graft materials.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) alloys that have both antibacterial and osteogenic properties are suitable candidates for orthopedic implants. However, the fabrication of ideal Mg implants suitable for bone repair remains challenging because it requires implants with interconnected pore structures and personalized geometric shapes. In this study, we fabricated a porous 3D-printed Mg-Nd-Zn-Zr (denoted as JDBM) implant with suitable mechanical properties using selective laser melting technology. The 3D-printed JDBM implant exhibited cytocompatibility in MC3T3-E1 and RAW267.4 cells and excellent osteoinductivity in vitro. Furthermore, the implant demonstrated excellent antibacterial ratios of 90.0% and 92.1% for methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and Escherichia coli, respectively. The 3D-printed JDBM implant prevented MRSA-induced implant-related infection in a rabbit model and showed good in vivo biocompatibility based on the results of histological evaluation, blood tests, and Mg2+ deposition detection. In addition, enhanced inflammatory response and TNF-α secretion were observed at the bone-implant interface of the 3D-printed JDBM implants during the early implantation stage. The high Mg2+ environment produced by the degradation of 3D-printed JDBM implants could promote M1 phenotype of macrophages (Tnf, iNOS, Ccl3, Ccl4, Ccl5, Cxcl10, and Cxcl2), and enhance the phagocytic ability of macrophages. The enhanced immunoregulatory effect generated by relatively fast Mg2+ release and implant degradation during the early implantation stage is a potential antibacterial mechanism of Mg-based implant. Our findings indicate that 3D-printed porous JDBM implants, having both antibacterial property and osteoinductivity, hold potential for future orthopedic applications. Porous JDBM implants promising mechanical properties was fabricated by selective laser melting. 3D-printed JDBM implant exhibited excellent antibacterial property, osteoinductivity, and biocompatibility. Temporally enhanced immunoregulatory effect in early stage was a potential antibacterial mechanism of Mg-based implant.

Abstract
Magnesium is a promising material. It has a remarkable mix of mechanical and biomedical properties that has made it suitable for a vast range of applications. Moreover, with alloying, many of these inherent properties can be further improved. Today, it is primarily used in the automotive, aerospace, and medical industries. However, magnesium has its own set of drawbacks that the industry and research communities are actively addressing. Magnesium’s rapid corrosion is its most significant drawback, and it dramatically impeded magnesium’s growth and expansion into other applications. This article reviews both the engineering and biomedical aspects and applications for magnesium and its alloys. It will also elaborate on the challenges that the material faces and how they can be overcome and discuss its outlook.

Abstract
Coatings are playing an important role in corrosion mitigation of magnesium alloys, and in this study, a facile and eco-friendly chemical deposition process is proposed to improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium-neodymium alloys. The mixture of 1.5 mol/L KH2PO4 solution and 1.2 mol/L CaCl2 solution is used for reaction solution, and ultrasound is introduced into the process for assisting the chemical deposition. After 40 minutes of the surface treatment, the surface and cross-sectional morphologies are observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), which reveals that a layer of dense coating is formed on Mg alloy. Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) are further combined to analyze the coating, and it is thereby confirmed that this coating mainly consists of CaHPO4·2H2O. Electrochemical tests and soaking experiments are conducted to evaluate the corrosion resistance of the treated samples in simulated concrete pore solutions. Both the untreated and treated samples have a good corrosion resistance in the Cl- free simulated concrete pore solution, but their corrosion behavior is influenced by the introduction of Cl- in this study. Fortunately, the coating can protect the substrate effectively in the Cl- containing simulated concrete pore solution. In summary, it provides a possible way for magnesium alloys to improve their corrosion resistance when they are used in building engineering.

Abstract
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a popular thermoplastic material widely used in engineering applications due to its favorable mechanical properties and stability at high temperatures. With the first implantable grade PEEK being commercialized in 1990s, the use of PEEK has since grown exponentially in the biomedical field and has rapidly transformed a large section of the medical devices landscape. Nowadays, PEEK is a standard biomaterial used across a wide range of implant applications, however, its bioinertness remains a limitation for bone repair applications. The increasing demand for enhanced treatment efficacy/improved patient quality of life, calls for next-generation implants that can offer fast bone integration as well as other desirable therapeutic functions. As such, modification of PEEK implants has progressively shifted from offering desirable mechanical properties, enhancing bioactivity/fast osteointegration, to more recently, tackling post-surgery bacterial infection/biofilm formation, modulation of inflammation and management of bone cancers. Such progress is also accompanied by the evolution of the PEEK manufacturing technologies, to meet the ever increasing demand for more patient specific devices. However, no review has comprehensively covered the recently engaged application areas to date. This paper provides an up-to-date review on the development of PEEK-based biomedical devices in the past 10 years, with particularly focus on modifying PEEK for multi-modal therapeutics. The aim is to provide the peers with a timely update, which may guide and inspire the research and development of next generation PEEK-based healthcare products. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Significant progress has been made in PEEK processing and modification techniques in the past decades, which greatly contributed to its wide applications in the biomedical field. Despite the high volume of published literature on PEEK implant related research, there is a lack of review on its emerging applications in multi-modal therapeutics, which involve bone regeneration, anti-bacteria/anti-inflammation, and cancer inhibition, etc. This timely review covers the state-of-the-art in these exciting areas and provides the important guidance for next generation PEEK based biomedical device research and development.

Abstract
The effects of dual Zr and O plasma immersion ion implantation (Zr & O PIII) on antibacterial properties of ZK60 Mg alloys are systematically investigated. The results show that a hydrophobic, smooth, and ZrO2-containing graded film is formed. Electrochemical assessment shows that the corrosion rate of the plasma-treated Mg alloy decreases and the decreased degradation rate is attributed to the protection rendered by the surface oxide. In vitro and in vivo antibacterial tests reveal Zr & O PIII ZK60 presents higher antibacterial rate compared to Zr PIII ZK60 and untreated control. The hydrophobic and smooth surface suppresses bacterial adhesion. High concentration of oxygen vacancies in the surface films are determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV–vis diffuse reflectance spectra (UV–vis DRS) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and involved in the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The higher level of ROS expression inhibits biofilm formation by down-regulating the expression of icaADBC genes but up-regulating the expression of icaR gene. In addition, Zr & O PIII improves cell viability and initial cell adhesion confirming good cytocompatibility. Dual Zr & O PIII is a simple and practical means to expedite clinical acceptance of biodegradable magnesium alloys. A ZrO2-containing graded film with high concentration of oxygen vacancies was formed via PIII. S. aureus adhesion was suppressed due to enhanced hydrophobicity and decreased roughness. High concentration of oxygen vacancies lead to the upregulation of ROS expression. ROS mediates biofilm-associated genes expression to inhibit biofilm formation in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
To overcome the restricted degradation, poor antiacterial and osteoindctive problems of magnesium and its alloys, this study presented the spinning coating of an antimicrobial peptide (AP)-loaded silk fibroin (SF) composite onto a corrosion-resistant MgO-coated AZ31 Mg alloy via anodization (aMgO) and electrodeposition (eMgO) methods. The composite coatings not only created a smooth and hydrophilic surface, but also obviously improved the corrosion resistance according to the test of corrosion potential and current density. The colonization of E. coli on MgO-AP composite coatings was significantly reduced as compared to the MgO layers, due to the potential synergetic effects of APs and Mg2+. Compared with the bare AZ31, the composite coating inhibited the corrosion of the substrate and the release of Mg2+, supported the adhesion, spreading and proliferation of osteoblasts, and presented a significantly improved osteogenic differentiation trend. Therefore, the MgO-AP composite coating, which had both antibacterial and bone-promoting abilities, was expected to be applied for surface modification of magnesium alloy implants to solve the clinical problems of bacterial infection and poor osseointegration.

Abstract
The oral cavity harbors complex microbial communities, which leads to biomaterial-associated infections (BAI) during dental and orthopedic treatments. Conventional antibiotic treatments have met great challenges recently due to the increasing emergency of drug-resistant bacteria. To tackle this clinical issue, antibacterial surface treatments, containing surface modification and coatings, of dental and orthopedic materials have become an area of intensive interest now. Among various antibacterial agents used in surface treatments, metallic agents possess unique properties, mainly including broad-spectrum antibacterial properties, low potential to develop bacterial resistance, relative biocompatibility, and chemical stability. Therefore, this review mainly focuses on underlying antibacterial applications and the mechanisms of metallic agents in dentistry and orthopedics. An overview of the present review indicates that much work remains to be done to deepen the understanding of antibacterial mechanisms and potential side-effects of metallic agents.

Abstract
Magnesium alloys are considered for building materials in this study due to their natural immunity to corrosion in alkaline concrete pore solution. But, chloride ions attack often hinders the application of most metals. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a preliminary corrosion evaluation and attempt to find an effective way to resist the attack of chloride ions in concrete pore solution. In our study, hydrothermal treatment is carried out to modify Mg-9.3 wt. % Al alloy. After the treatment in NaOH solution for 10 h, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reveals that a layer of dense coating with a thickness of about 5 μm is formed on Mg alloy. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) are combined to analyze the coating, and it is thereby confirmed that the coating is mainly composed of Mg(OH)2. As expected, both immersion test and electrochemical corrosion test show that the coated magnesium alloy has a better corrosion resistance than the uncoated one in simulated concrete pore solution with and without chloride ions. In summary, it indicates that hydrothermal treatment is a feasible method to improve the corrosion resistance of Mg alloys used for building engineering from the perspective of corrosion science.

Advances in Antibacterial Functionalized Coatings on Mg and Its Alloys for Medical Use—A Review. COATINGS 2020.

Abstract
As a revolutionary implant material, magnesium and its alloys have many exciting performances, such as biodegradability, mechanical compatibility, and excellent biosecurity. However, the rapid and uncontrollable degradation rate of magnesium greatly hampers its clinical use. Many efforts have been taken to enhance the corrosion resistance of magnesium. However, it must be noted that improving the corrosion resistance of magnesium will lead to the compromise of its antibacterial abilities, which are attribute and proportional to the alkaline pH during its degradation. Providing antibacterial functionalized coating is one of the best methods for balancing the degradation rate and the antibacterial ability of magnesium. Antibacterial functionalized magnesium is especially well-suited for patients with diabetes and infected wounds. Considering the extremely complex biological environment in the human body and the demands of enhancing corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, osteogenesis, and antibacterial ability, composite coatings with combined properties of different materials may be promising. The aim of this review isto collect and compare recent studies on antibacterial functionalized coatings on magnesium and its alloys. The clinical applications of antibacterial functionalized coatings and their material characteristics, antibacterial abilities, in vitro cytocompatibility, and corrosion resistance are also discussed in detail.

Acta Biomater 2020; 108:207-222. [PMID: 32251784 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2020.03.044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 73] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2019] [Revised: 03/17/2020] [Accepted: 03/30/2020] [Indexed: 01/14/2023]
Abstract
Biomaterial-based membranes represent a promising therapeutic option for periodontal diseases. Although conventional periodontal membranes function greatly in preventing the ingrowth of both fibroblasts and epithelial cells as well as connective tissues, they are not capable of promoting periodontal tissue regeneration. Here, we report a multifunctional periodontal membrane prepared by electrospinning biodegradable polymers with magnesium oxide nanoparticles (nMgO). nMgO is a light metal-based nanoparticle with high antibacterial capacity and can be fully resorbed in the body. Our results showed that incorporating nMgO into poly(L-lactic acid) (PLA)/gelatin significantly improved the overall properties of membranes, including elevated tensile strength to maintain structural stability and adjusted degradation rate to fit the time window of periodontal regeneration. Acidic degradation products of PLA were neutralized by alkaline ions from nMgO hydrolysis, ameliorating pH microenvironment beneficial for cell proliferation. In vitro studies demonstrated considerable antibacterial and osteogenic properties of nMgO-incorporated membranes that are highly valuable for periodontal regeneration. Further investigations in a rat periodontal defect model revealed that nMgO-incorporated membranes effectively guided periodontal tissue regeneration. Taken together, our data indicate that nMgO-incorporated membranes might be a promising therapeutic option for periodontal regeneration. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Traditional clinical treatments of periodontal diseases largely focus on the management of the pathologic processes, which cannot effectively regenerate the lost periodontal tissue. GTR, a classic method for periodontal regeneration, has shown promise in clinical practice. However, the current membranes might not fully fulfill the criteria of ideal membranes. Here, we report bioabsorbable nMgO-incorporated nanofibrous membranes prepared by electrospinning to provide an alternative for the clinical practice of GTR. The membranes not only function greatly as physical barriers but also exhibit high antibacterial and osteoinductive properties. We therefore believe that this study will inspire more practice work on the development of effective GTR membranes for periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
Magnesium is currently increasing interest in the field of biomaterials. An extensive bibliography on this material in the last two decades arises from its potential for the development of biodegradable implants. In addition, many researches, motivated by this progress, have analyzed the performance of magnesium in both in vitro and in vivo assays with gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria in a very broad range of conditions. This review explores the extensive literature in recent years on magnesium in biomaterials-related infections, and discusses the mechanisms of the Mg action on bacteria, as well as the competition of Mg2+ and/or synergy with other divalent cations in this subject.

Abstract
In bone implants, antibacterial biomaterials with nonleaching surfaces are superior to ones based on abrupt release because systemic side effects arising from the latter can be avoided. In this work, a nonleaching antibacterial concept is demonstrated by fabricating 2D nanoflakes in situ on magnesium (Mg). Different from the conventional antibacterial mechanisms that depend on Mg2+ release and pH increase, the nanoflakes exert mechanical tension onto the bacteria membranes to destroy microorganisms on contact and produce intracellular stress via physical interactions, which is also revealed by computational simulations. Moreover, the nanoflake layer decelerates the corrosion process resulting in mitigated Mg2+ release, weaker alkalinity in the vicinity, and less hydrogen evolution, in turn inducing less inflammatory reactions and ensuring the biocompatibility as confirmed by the in vivo study. In this way, bacteria are killed by a mechanical process causing very little side effects. This work provides information and insights pertaining to the design of multifunctional biomaterials.

A surface-engineered multifunctional TiO 2 based nano-layer simultaneously elevates the corrosion resistance, osteoconductivity and antimicrobial property of a magnesium alloy. Acta Biomater 2019; 99:495-513. [PMID: 31518705 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2019.09.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2019] [Revised: 08/12/2019] [Accepted: 09/06/2019] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Magnesium biometals exhibit great potentials for orthopeadic applications owing to their biodegradability, bioactive effects and satisfactory mechanical properties. However, rapid corrosion of Mg implants in vivo combined with large amount of hydrogen gas evolution is harmful to bone healing process which seriously confines their clinical applications. Enlightened by the superior biocompatibility and corrosion resistance of passive titanium oxide layer automatically formed on titanium alloy, we employ the Ti and O dual plasma ion immersion implantation (PIII) technique to construct a multifunctional TiO2 based nano-layer on ZK60 magnesium substrates for enhanced corrosion resistance, osteoconductivity and antimicrobial activity. The constructed nano-layer (TiO2/MgO) can effectively suppress degradation rate of ZK60 substrates in vitro and still maintain 94% implant volume after post-surgery eight weeks. In animal study, a large amount of bony tissue with increased bone mineral density and trabecular thickness is formed around the PIII treated group in post-operation eight weeks. Moreover, the newly formed bone in the PIII treated group is well mineralized and its mechanical property almost restores to the level of that of surrounding mature bone. Surprisingly, a remarkable killing ratio of 99.31% against S. aureus can be found on the PIII treated sample under ultra-violet (UV) irradiation which mainly attributes to the oxidative stress induced by the reactive oxygen species (ROS). We believe that this multifunctional TiO2 based nano-layer not only controls the degradation of magnesium implant, but also regulates its implant-to-bone integration effectively. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Rapid corrosion of magnesium implants is the major issue for orthopaedic applications. Inspired by the biocompatibility and corrosion resistance of passive titanium oxide layer automatically formed on titanium alloy, we construct a multifunctional TiO2/MgO nanolayer on magnesium substrates to simultaneously achieve superior corrosion resistance, satisfactory osteoconductivity in rat intramedullary bone defect model and excellent antimicrobial activity against S. aureus under UV irradiation. The current findings suggest that the specific TiO2/MgO nano-layer on magnesium surface can achieve the three objectives aforementioned and we believe this study can demonstrate the potential of biodegradable metals for future clinical applications.

Abstract
Objective This work focuses on tackling the inadequate bone/implant interface strength of acrylic bone cements, which is a formidable problem diminishing their clinical performance, especially in percutaneous kyphoplasty surgery. Methods A new strategy of incorporating magnesium particles into clinically used poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) bone cement to prepare a surface-degradable bone cement (SdBC) is proposed and validated both in vitro and in vivo. Results This surface degradation characteristic enables osseointegrative, angiogenic and antiinfective properties. SdBC showed fast surface degradation and formed porous surfaces as designed, while the desirable high compressive strengths (≥70 MPa) of the cement were preserved. Besides, the SdBC with proper Mg content promoted osteoblast adhesion, spreading, proliferation and endothelial cell angiogenesis capacity compared with PMMA. Also, SdBC demonstrated clear inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. In vivo evaluation on SdBC by the rat femur defect model showed that the bone/implant interface strength was significantly enhanced in SdBC (push-out force of 11.8 ± 1.5 N for SdBC vs 7.0 ± 2.3N for PMMA), suggesting significantly improved osseointegration and bone growth induced by the surface degradation of the cement. The injectability, setting times and compressive strengths of SdBC with proper content of Mg particles (2.8 wt% and 5.4 wt%) were comparable with those of the clinical acrylic bone cement, while the heat release during polymerization was reduced (maximum temperature 78 ± 1 °C for PMMA vs 73.3 ± 1.5 °C for SdBC). Conclusions This work validates a new concept of designing bioactive bone/implant interface in PMMA bone cement. And this surface-degradable bone cement possesses great potential for minimally invasive orthopaedic surgeries such as percutaneous kyphoplasty. The translational potential of this article This work reports PMMA/Mg surface-degradable acrylic bone cements that possess enhanced osseointegrative, angiogenic and antiinfective properties that are lacking in the clinically used acrylic bone cements. This new kind of bone cements could improve the treatment outcome of many orthopaedic surgeries such as percutaneous kyphoplasty and arthroplasty.

Abstract
Due to their remarkable antibacterial properties, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and curcumin (CCM) have been widely used in the antimicrobial field. In our study, we have fabricated the uniform and stable silver/curcumin composite nanoparticles by a facile ultrasound treatment process and the synergistic antibacterial activity were evaluated. The curcumin not only played a role of reducing agent but also acted as a capping agent. The antibacterial effects of silver/curcumin (cAgNPs) were studied by measuring the growth curve and surface plate assay based on the E. coli and B. subtilis, which showed concentration dependent bacteriostatic and bactericidal effects of cAgNPs. The presence of CCM enhance the binding of Ag to bacterial membrane and Ag+ release in comparison to that without CCM, so that creating a temporary and local high Ag+ concentration near the surface of the bacterium, meanwhile, generation of more reactive oxygen species, lead to membrane damage, bacterial lipases and induce leakage of intracellular contents followed by bacterial death that lead to growth inhibition of the bacteria. The antibacterial effects were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), the effect which were further found to decrease by introducing antioxidant N-acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) act as a reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging agent. These initial data suggest that cAgNPs have a highly antibacterial efficient and might have potential to be developed as an effective antimicrobial nanomaterial.

Abstract
Inhibition of bacterial growth with the simultaneous promotion of angiogenesis has been challenging in the repair and regeneration of infected tissues. Here, we aim to tackle this issue through the use of cobalt-doped silicate microspheres that can sustainably release dual ions (silicate and cobalt) at therapeutically-relevant doses. The cobalt was doped up to 2.5 wt% within a sol-gel silicate glass network, and microspheres with the size of ∼300 μm were generated by an emulsification method. The cobalt and silicate ions released were shown to synergistically upregulate key angiogenic genes, such as HIF1-α, VEGF and the receptor KDR. Moreover, the incorporation of ions promoted the polarization, migration, homing and sprouting angiogenesis of endothelial cells. Neo-vascular formation was significantly higher in the dual-ion delivered microspheres, as evidenced in a chicken chorioallantoic membrane model. When cultured with bacterial species, the cobalt-doped microspheres effectively inhibited bacteria growth in both indirect or direct contacts. Of note, the bacteria/endothelial cell coculture model proved the efficacy of dual-ion releasing microcarriers for maintaining the endothelial survivability against bacterial contamination and their cell-cell junction. The current study demonstrates the multiple actions (proangiogenic and antibacterial) of silicate and cobalt ions released from microspheres, and the concept provided here can be extensively applied to repair and regenerate infected tissues as a growth factor- or drug-free delivery system. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: While several ions have been introduced to biomaterials for therapeutic purposes, relaying the effects of antibacterial into tissue regenerative (e.g., angiogenesis) has been a significant challenge. In this study, we aim to develop a biomaterial platform that has the capacity of both 'antibacterial' and 'proangiogenic' from a microsphere sustainably releasing multiple ions (herein cobalt and silicate). Here, dual-actions of the microspheres revealed the stimulated endothelial functions as well as the inhibited growth of different bacterial species. In particular, protecting endothelial survivability against bacterial contamination was reported using the bacterial/endothelial co-culture model. The current concept of drug-free yet multiple-ion delivery biomaterials can be applicable for the repair and regeneration of infected tissues with dual actions of angiogenesis and suppressing bacterial activity.

Abstract
The prevention of microbial biofilm formation on a biomaterial surface is crucial in avoiding implants failures and the development of antibiotic resistant bacteria. It was reported that biodegradable Mg alloys may show antimicrobial effects due to the alkalinization of the corroding area. However, this issue is controversial and deserves a detailed study, since the processes occurring at the [biodegradable metal/biological medium] interface are complex and varied. Results showed that bacterial adhesion on AZ31 was lower than that of the titanium control and revealed that was dependent on surface composition, depicting some preferential sites for bacterial attachment (C-, P-, O-containing corrosion products) and others that are particularly avoided (active corrosion sites). As a key challenge, a strategy able to improve the performance of Mg alloys by both, reducing the formation of corrosion products and inhibiting bacterial adhesion was subsequently developed. A polymeric layer (polyTOH) was obtained by electropolymerization of thymol (TOH), a phytophenolic compound. The polyTOH can operate as a multifunctional film that improves the surface characteristics of the AZ31 Mg alloy by enhancing corrosion resistance (ions release was reduced to almost the half during the first days) and create an anti-adherent surface (bacterial attachment was 30-fold lower on polyTOH-AZ31 than on non-coated Mg alloy and 200-fold lower than Ti control and was constrained to specific regions). This anti-adherent property implies an additional advantage: enhancement of the efficacy of antibiotic treatments.

Abstract
Electrical interactions between bacteria and the environment are delicate and essential. In this study, an external electrical current is applied to capacitive titania nanotubes doped with carbon (TNT-C) to evaluate the effects on bacteria killing and the underlying mechanism is investigated. When TNT-C is charged, post-charging antibacterial effects proportional to the capacitance are observed. This capacitance-based antibacterial system works well with both direct and alternating current (DC, AC) and the higher discharging capacity in the positive DC (DC+) group leads to better antibacterial performance. Extracellular electron transfer observed during early contact contributes to the surface-dependent post-charging antibacterial process. Physiologically, the electrical interaction deforms the bacteria morphology and elevates the intracellular reactive oxygen species level without impairing the growth of osteoblasts. Our finding spurs the design of light-independent antibacterial materials and provides insights into the use of electricity to modify biomaterials to complement other bacteria killing measures such as light irradiation. Bacteria are known to be sensitive to electrical interactions with the environment. Here, the authors report on a study into how the antibacterial properties of carbon-doped titania nanotubes are affected by capacitance after charging with direct and alternating currents.

Abstract
Degradation limits the application of magnesium alloys, and evaluation methods for non-traumatic in vivo quantification of implant degradation and bone formation are imperfect. In the present study, a micro-arc-oxidized AZ31 magnesium alloy was used to evaluate the degradation of implants and new bone formation in 60 male New Zealand white rabbits. Degradation was monitored by weighing the implants prior to and following implantation, and by performing micro-computed tomography (CT) scans and histological analysis after 1, 4, 12, 24, 36, and 48 weeks of implantation. The results indicated that the implants underwent slow degradation in the first 4 weeks, with negligible degradation in the first week, followed by significantly increased degradation during weeks 12–24 (P<0.05), and continued degradation until the end of the 48-week experimental period. The magnesium content decreased as the implant degraded (P<0.05); however, the density of the material exhibited almost no change. Micro-CT results also demonstrated that pin volume, pin mineral density, mean ‘pin thickness’, bone surface/bone volume and trabecular separation decreased over time (P<0.05), and that the pin surface area/pin volume, bone volume fraction, trabecular thickness, trabecular number and tissue mineral density increased over time (P<0.05), indicating that the number of bones and density of new bone increased as magnesium degraded. These results support the positive effect of magnesium on osteogenesis. However, from the maximum inner diameter of the new bone loop and diameter of the pin in the same position, the magnesium alloy was not capable of creating sufficient bridges between the bones and biomaterials when there were preexisting gaps. Histological analyses indicated that there were no inflammatory responses around the implants. The results of the present study indicate that a micro-arc-oxidized AZ31 magnesium alloy is safe in vivo and efficiently degraded. Furthermore, the novel bone formation increased as the implant degraded. The findings concluded that micro-CT, which is useful for providing non-traumatic, in vivo, quantitative and precise data, has great value for exploring the degradation of implants and novel bone formation.

Abstract
Regeneration of infected tissues is a globally challenging issue in medicine and dentistry. Common clinical therapies involving a complete removal of infected areas together with a treatment of antimicrobial drugs are often suboptimal. Biomaterials with anti-bacterial and pro-regenerative potential can offer a solution to this. Here we design a novel nanocarrier based on a mesoporous silicate-calcium glass by doping with Ag ions and simultaneously loading antimicrobial drugs onto mesopores. The nanocarriers could controllably release multiple ions (silver, calcium, and silicate) and drugs (tetracycline or chlorohexidine) to levels therapeutically relevant, and effectively internalize to human dental stem cells (∼90%) with excellent viability, ultimately stimulating odontogenic differentiation. The release of Ag ions had profound effects on most oral bacteria species through a membrane rupture, and the antibiotic delivery complemented the antibacterial functions by inhibiting protein synthesis. Of note, the nanocarriers easily anchored to bacteria membrane helping the delivery of molecules to an intra-bacterial space. When administered to an infected dentin-pulp defect in rats, the therapeutic nanocarriers effectively regenerated tissues following a complete bacterial killing. This novel concept of multiple-delivering ions and drug can be extensively applied to other infectious tissues that require relayed biological functions (anti-bacterial then pro-regenerative) for successful healing.

Abstract
Dental materials often cause bacterial adhesion and promote bacterial biofilm formation, which brings a series of long-standing and significant problems in oral health. However, the current development of antibacterial research in dental devices is limited by the lack of materials endowed with good antibacterial properties against oral bacteria. Here, we present a new strategy for reducing the initial adhesion of bacterial on dental biomaterials by chemically bonding long-chain polyethylene glycol. Our work represents an important step toward solving the problem of bacterial accumulation on dental devices.

Abstract
Bacterial colonisation and biofilm formation are characteristics of implant-associated infections. In search of candidates for improved prosthetic materials, fast corroding Mg-based coatings on titanium surfaces were examined for their cytotoxic and antimicrobial properties. Human osteoblasts and Staphylococcus epidermidis were each cultured on cylindrical Ti samples coated with a thin layer of Mg/Mg45Zn5Ca, applied via magnetron sputtering. Uncoated titanium samples served as controls. S. epidermidis was quantified by counting colony forming units. The biofilm-bound fraction was isolated via ultrasonic treatment, and the planktonic fraction via centrifugation. Biofilm-bound S. epidermidis was significantly decreased by approximately four to five orders of magnitude in both Mg- and Mg45Zn5Ca-coated samples after seven days compared to the control. The osteoblast viability was within the tolerance threshold of 70% stated in DIN EN ISO 10993-5:2009-10 for Mg (~80%) but not for Mg45Zn5Ca (~25%). Accordingly, Mg-coated titanium was identified as a promising candidate for an implant material with antibacterial properties and low cytotoxicity levels. The approach of exploiting fast corrosion contrasts with existing methods, which have generally focused on reducing corrosion.

Abstract
Although titanium embedded with silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs@Ti) are suitable for biomedical implants because of the good cytocompatibility and antibacterial characteristics, the exact antibacterial mechanism is not well understood. In the present work, the antibacterial mechanisms of Ag-NPs@Ti prepared by plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) are explored in details. The antibacterial effects of the Ag-NPs depend on the conductivity of the substrate revealing the importance of electron transfer in the antibacterial process. In addition, electron transfer between the Ag-NPs and titanium substrate produces bursts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in both the bacteria cells and culture medium. ROS leads to bacteria death by inducing intracellular oxidation, membrane potential variation, and cellular contents release and the antibacterial ability of Ag-NPs@Ti is inhibited appreciably after adding ROS scavengers. Even though ROS signals are detected from osteoblasts cultured on Ag-NPs@Ti, the cell compatibility is not impaired. This electron-transfer-based antibacterial process which produces ROS provides insights into the design of biomaterials with both antibacterial properties and cytocompatibility.
