Abstract
Living organisms in nature have undergone continuous evolution over billions of years, resulting in the formation of high-performance fracture-resistant biomineralized tissues such as bones and teeth to fulfill mechanical and biological functions, despite the fact that most inorganic biominerals that constitute biomineralized tissues are weak and brittle. During the long-period evolution process, nature has evolved a number of highly effective and smart strategies to design chemical compositions and structures of biomineralized tissues to enable superior properties and to adapt to surrounding environments. Most biomineralized tissues have hierarchically ordered structures consisting of very small building blocks on the nanometer scale (nanoparticles, nanofibers or nanoflakes) to reduce the inherent weaknesses and brittleness of corresponding inorganic biominerals, to prevent crack initiation and propagation, and to allow high defect tolerance. The bioinspired principles derived from biomineralized tissues are indispensable for designing and constructing high-performance biomimetic materials. In recent years, a large number of high-performance biomimetic materials have been prepared based on these bioinspired principles with a large volume of literature covering this topic. Therefore, a timely and comprehensive review on this hot topic is highly important and contributes to the future development of this rapidly evolving research field. This review article aims to be comprehensive, authoritative, and critical with wide general interest to the science community, summarizing recent advances in revealing the formation processes, composition, and structures of biomineralized tissues, providing in-depth insights into guidelines derived from biomineralized tissues for the design and construction of high-performance biomimetic materials, and discussing recent progress, current research trends, key problems, future main research directions and challenges, and future perspectives in this exciting and rapidly evolving research field.

[PMID: 38534828 DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics9030143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Open-cell foams based on hydroxyapatite (HAp) can mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) to better replace damaged hard tissues and assist in their regeneration processes. Aerogels of HAp nanowires (NW) with barium titanate (BT) particles were produced and characterized regarding their physical and chemical properties, bioactivity, and in vitro cytotoxicity. Considering the role of piezoelectricity (mainly due to collagen) and surface charges in bone remodeling, all BT particles, of size 280 nm and 2 and 3 µm, contained BaTiO3 in their piezoelectric tetragonal phase. The synthesized nanowires were verified to be AB-type carbonated hydroxyapatite. The aerogels showed high porosity and relatively homogeneous distribution of the BT particles. Barium titanate proved to be non-cytotoxic while all the aerogels produced were cytotoxic for an extract concentration of 1 mg/mL but became non-cytotoxic at concentrations of 0.5 mg/mL and below. It is possible that these results were affected by the higher surface area and quicker dissolution rate of the aerogels. In the bioactivity assays, SEM/EDS, it was not easy to differentiate between the apatite deposition and the surface of the HAp wires. However, a quantitative EDS analysis shows a possible CaP deposition/dissolution cycle taking place.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite-based materials have been widely used in countless applications, such as bone regeneration, catalysis, air and water purification or protein separation. Recently, much interest has been given to controlling the aspect ratio of hydroxyapatite crystals from bulk samples. The ability to exert control over the aspect ratio may revolutionize the applications of these materials towards new functional materials. Controlling the shape, size and orientation of HA crystals allows obtaining high aspect ratio structures, improving several key properties of HA materials such as molecule adsorption, ion exchange, catalytic reactions, and even overcoming the well-known brittleness of ceramic materials. Regulating the morphogenesis of HA crystals to form elongated oriented fibres has led to flexible inorganic synthetic sponges, aerogels, membranes, papers, among others, with applications in sustainability, energy and catalysis, and especially in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Barrier membranes with osteogenesis are desirable for promoting bone repair. Janus membrane, which has a bilayered structure with different properties on each side, could meet the osteogenesis/barrier dual functions of guided bone regeneration. In this work, new biodegradable Janus carboxymethyl chitin membrane with asymmetric pore structure was prepared based on thermosensitive carboxymethyl chitin without using any crosslinkers. Nano-hydroxyapatites were cast on single-sided membrane. The obtained carboxymethyl chitin/nano-hydroxyapatite Janus membrane showed dual biofunctions: the dense layer of the Janus membrane could act as a barrier to prevent connective tissue cells from invading the bone defects, while the porous layer (with pore size 100-200 μm) containing nano-hydroxyapatite could guide bone regeneration. After implanted on the rat critical-sized calvarial defect 8 weeks, carboxymethyl chitin/nano-hydroxyapatite membrane showed the most newly formed bone tissue with the highest bone volume/total volume ratio (10.03 ± 1.81 %, analyzed by micro CT), which was significantly better than the commercial collagen membrane GTR® (5.05 ± 0.76 %). Meanwhile, this Janus membrane possessed good hemostatic ability. These results suggest a facile strategy to construct hemostasis-osteogenesis integrated Janus carboxymethyl chitin/hydroxyapatite membrane for guided bone regeneration.

Abstract
In 2014, a new type of the fire-resistant paper based on ultralong hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanowires was reported by the author’s research group, which had superior properties and promising applications in various fields, such as high-temperature resistance, fire retardance, heat insulation, electrical insulation, energy, environmental protection, and biomedicine. The wet end chemical properties of the fire-resistant paper pulp are very important for papermaking and mechanical performance of the paper, which play a guiding role in the practical production of the fire-resistant paper. In this paper, the wet end chemical properties of a new kind of fire-resistant paper pulp based on ultralong HAP nanowires are studied for the first time by focusing on the wet end chemical parameters, the effects of these parameters on the properties such as flocculation, retention, draining, and white water circulation of the fire-resistant paper pulp, and their effects on the properties of the as-prepared fire-resistant paper. The experimental results indicated that the wet end chemical properties of the new kind of fire-resistant paper pulp based on ultralong HAP nanowires were unique and entirely different from those of the traditional paper pulp based on plant fibers. The wet end chemical properties of the fire-resistant paper pulp were significantly influenced by the inorganic adhesive and its content, which affected the runnability of the paper machine and the properties of the as-prepared fire-resistant paper. The flocculation properties of the fire-resistant paper pulp based on ultralong HAP nanowires were affected by the conductivity and Zeta potential. The addition of the inorganic adhesive in the fire-resistant paper pulp based on ultralong HAP nanowires could significantly increase the conductivity of the fire-resistant paper pulp, reduce the particle size of paper pulp floccules, and increase the tensile strength of the fire-resistant paper. In addition, the fire-resistant paper pulp based on ultralong HAP nanowires in the presence of inorganic adhesive exhibited excellent antibacterial performance. This work will contribute to and accelerate the commercialization process and applications of the new type of the fire-resistant paper based on ultralong HAP nanowires.

Abstract
Various types of materials have been traditionally used to restore damaged bones. In the late 1960s, a strong interest was raised in studying ceramics as potential bone grafts due to their biomechanical properties. A short time later, such synthetic biomaterials were called bioceramics. Bioceramics can be prepared from diverse inorganic substances, but this review is limited to calcium orthophosphate (CaPO4)-based formulations only, due to its chemical similarity to mammalian bones and teeth. During the past 50 years, there have been a number of important achievements in this field. Namely, after the initial development of bioceramics that was just tolerated in the physiological environment, an emphasis was shifted towards the formulations able to form direct chemical bonds with the adjacent bones. Afterwards, by the structural and compositional controls, it became possible to choose whether the CaPO4-based implants would remain biologically stable once incorporated into the skeletal structure or whether they would be resorbed over time. At the turn of the millennium, a new concept of regenerative bioceramics was developed, and such formulations became an integrated part of the tissue engineering approach. Now, CaPO4-based scaffolds are designed to induce bone formation and vascularization. These scaffolds are usually porous and harbor various biomolecules and/or cells. Therefore, current biomedical applications of CaPO4-based bioceramics include artificial bone grafts, bone augmentations, maxillofacial reconstruction, spinal fusion, and periodontal disease repairs, as well as bone fillers after tumor surgery. Prospective future applications comprise drug delivery and tissue engineering purposes because CaPO4 appear to be promising carriers of growth factors, bioactive peptides, and various types of cells.

Microwave-Assisted Hydrothermal Rapid Synthesis of Ultralong Hydroxyapatite Nanowires Using Adenosine 5'-Triphosphate. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27155020.

Abstract
Ultralong hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanowires are promising for various biomedical applications owing to their chemical similarity to the inorganic constituent of bone, high biocompatibility, good flexibility, excellent mechanical properties, etc. However, it is still challenging to control the formation of ultralong HAP nanowires because of the presence of free PO43− ions in the reaction system containing the inorganic phosphate source. In addition, it takes a long period of time (usually tens of hours) for the synthetic process of ultralong HAP nanowires. Herein, for the first time, we have developed an eco-friendly calcium oleate precursor microwave hydrothermal method using biocompatible adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) as a bio-phosphorus source and water as the only solvent for the rapid synthesis of ultralong HAP nanowires. The controllable hydrolysis of ATP can avoid the premature formation of calcium phosphate nuclei and uncontrollable crystal growth. Microwave heating can significantly shorten the synthetic time from tens of hours required by the traditional heating to 1 h, thus achieving high efficiency, energy saving and low cost. The as-prepared ultralong HAP nanowires with high flexibility have lengths of several hundred micrometers and diameters of 10~20 nm, and they usually self-assemble into nanowire bundles along their longitudinal direction. The as-prepared ultralong HAP nanowire/chitosan porous scaffold has excellent bioactivity, good biodegradation and cytocompatibility owing to the bioactive adenosine adsorbed on the surface of ultralong HAP nanowires. It is expected that ultralong HAP nanowires will be promising for various applications in the biomedical fields, such as bone defect repair, skin wound healing, and as a drug nanocarrier.

Abstract
Seeking high biological activity and osteoinductive ability has always been an urgent problem for three-dimensional-printed (3DP) bony implants. Here, a 3DP methacrylic anhydride-modified gelatin (GelMA)/hydroxyapatite (HAp) scaffold with a high solid content of 82.5% was prepared and anchored by a functionalized polyphenol hydrogel. The scaffold and hydrogel were organically integrated into a bioinspired bony implant (HGH) by phenolic hydroxyl of hyaluronan derivatives conjugating amino groups of collagen I and GelMA and further chelating calcium ions of HAp. Compared with a simplex 3DP scaffold, this freeze-dried HGH presented better water retention, delayed degradation, and mechanical stability. It could promote migration, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stem cells in vitro. One week of implantation showed that it promoted directional migration of endogenous stem cells and early osteogenesis and angiogenesis. After 15 week surgery of rabbit skull defects, the BV/TV value of HGH returned to 73% of the normal group level. This strategy provided a new research idea for bone regeneration.

Biopaper Based on Ultralong Hydroxyapatite Nanowires and Cellulose Fibers Promotes Skin Wound Healing by Inducing Angiogenesis. COATINGS 2022.

Abstract
Skin injury that is difficult to heal caused by various factors remains a major clinical challenge. Hydroxyapatite (HAP) has high potential for wound healing owing to its high biocompatibility and adequate angiogenic ability, while traditional HAP materials are not suitable for wound dressing due to their high brittleness and poor mechanical properties. To address this challenge, we developed a novel wound dressing made of flexible ultralong HAP nanowire-based biopaper. This biopaper is flexible and superhydrophilic, with suitable tensile strength (2.57 MPa), high porosity (77%), and adequate specific surface area (36.84 m2·g−1) and can continuously release Ca2+ ions to promote the healing of skin wounds. Experiments in vitro and in vivo show that the ultralong HAP nanowire-based biopaper can effectively induce human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) treated with hypoxia and rat skin tissue to produce more angiogenic factors. The as-prepared biopaper can also enhance the proliferation, migration, and in vitro angiogenesis of HUVECs. In addition, the biopaper can promote the rat skin to achieve thicker skin re-epithelialization and the formation of new blood vessels, and thus promote the healing of the wound. Therefore, the ultralong HAP nanowire-based biopaper has the potential to be a safe and effective wound dressing and has significant clinical application prospects.

Abstract
This study was conducted in order to investigate biological compatibility of a thin and flexible hydroxyapatite (HAP) paper which consists of ultralong hydroxyapatite nanowires. Circular-shaped cranial bone defects with a diameter of 8.8 mm were prepared to expose the dura maters in Wistar rats. The similar-sized, circular-shaped HAP paper was placed at the bottom of the bone defects. After 2, 4, and 8 weeks, the rats were sacrificed, and the experimental sections were examined by micro-CT scanning and histological observation. The HAP paper covered with fibrous tissues showed no inflammatory cell infiltration, and their thicknesses decreased over time. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive osteoclast-like cells were induced around the edges of the HAP paper along with the exfoliation of the HAP paper. The newly-formed bones were observed in the bone-defected areas, either with a direct contact with the HAP paper or through thin fibrous tissues. The HAP paper-induced osteoblast differentiation was confirmed since the alkaline phosphatase activities were detected on the surfaces of the HAP paper. These results indicated that the HAP paper may induce osteogenesis without causing any harmful effects. The highly flexible HAP paper can contribute to further development of bone regenerative therapy.

Abstract
The synthetic analogue to biogenic apatite, hydroxyapatite (HA) has a number of physicochemical properties that make it an attractive candidate for diagnosis, treatment of disease and augmentation of biological tissues. Here we describe some of the recent studies on HA, which may provide bases for a number of new medical applications. The content of this review is divided to different medical application modes utilizing HA, including tissue engineering, medical implants, controlled drug delivery, gene therapies, cancer therapies and bioimaging. A number of advantages of HA over other biomaterials emerge from this discourse, including (i) biocompatibility, (ii) bioactivity, (iii) relatively simple synthesis protocols for the fabrication of nanoparticles with specific sizes and shapes, (iv) smart response to environmental stimuli, (v) facile functionalization and surface modification through noncovalent interactions, and (vi) the capacity for being simultaneously loaded with a wide range of therapeutic agents and switched to bioimaging modalities for uses in theranostics. A special section is dedicated to analysis of the safety of particulate HA as a component of parenterally administrable medications. It is concluded that despite the fact that many benefits come with the usage of HA, its deficiencies and potential side effects must be addressed before the translation to the clinical domain is pursued. Although HA has been known in the biomaterials world as the exemplar of safety, this safety proves to be the function of size, morphology, surface ligands and other structural and compositional parameters defining the particles. For this reason, each HA, especially when it comes in a novel structural form, must be treated anew from the safety research angle before being allowed to enter the clinical stage.

Abstract
Aim: The pharmaceutical industry is showing renewed interest in therapeutic peptides. Unfortunately, the chemical synthesis of peptides remains very expensive and problematic in terms of environmental sustainability. Hence, making peptides ‘greener’ has become a new front line for the expansion of peptide market. Results: We developed a mechanochemical solvent-free peptide bond-forming protocol using standard reagents and nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite as a bio-compatible, reusable inorganic base. The reaction was also conducted under ultra-mild, minimal solvent-grinding conditions, using common laboratory equipment. Conclusion: The efficacy of the described protocol was validated with the convenient preparation of endomorphin-1, H-Tyr-Pro-Trp-Phe-NH2, the endogenous ligand of the μ-opioid receptor, currently regarded as a lead for the discovery of painkillers devoid of harmful side effects.
