SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2307595. [PMID: 38126648 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202307595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
In the osteoporotic microenvironment, the acidic microenvironment generated by excessive osteoclasts not only causes irreversible bone mineral dissolution, but also promotes reactive oxygen species (ROS) production to induce osteoblast senescence and excessive receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-B ligand (RANKL) production, which help to generate more osteoclasts. Hence, targeting the acidic microenvironment and RANKL production may break this vicious cycle to rescue osteoporosis. To achieve this, an acid-responsive and neutralizing system with high in vivo gene editing capacity is developed by loading sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) and RANKL-CRISPR/Cas9 (RC) plasmid in a metal-organic framework. This results showed ZIF8-NaHCO3@Cas9 (ZNC) effective neutralized acidic microenvironment and inhibited ROS production . Surprisingly, nanoparticles loaded with NaHCO3 and plasmids show higher transfection efficiency in the acidic environments as compared to the ones loaded with plasmid only. Finally, micro-CT proves complete reversal of bone volume in ovariectomized mice after ZNC injection into the bone remodeling site. Overall, the newly developed nanoparticles show strong effect in neutralizing the acidic microenvironment to achieve bone protection through promoting osteogenesis and inhibiting osteolysis in a bidirectional manner. This study provides new insights into the treatment of osteoporosis for biomedical and clinical therapies.

Lipids Health Dis 2024; 23:88. [PMID: 38528544 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-024-02083-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024] Open
Abstract
The accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) within the bone marrow microenvironment leads to diminished osteogenic differentiation and heightened lipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells residing in the bone marrow, ultimately playing a role in the development of osteoporosis (OP). Mitigating ROS levels is a promising approach to counteracting OP. In this study, a nanozyme composed of magnesium-based zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (Mg-ZIF) was engineered to effectively scavenge ROS and alleviate OP. The results of this study indicate that Mg-ZIF exhibits significant potential in scavenging ROS and effectively promoting osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Additionally, Mg-ZIF was found to inhibit the differentiation of BMSCs into adipose cells. In vivo experiments further confirmed the ability of Mg-ZIF to mitigate OP by reducing ROS levels. Mechanistically, Mg-ZIF enhances the differentiation of BMSCs into osteoblasts by upregulating lipid metabolic pathways through ROS scavenging. The results indicate that Mg-ZIF has potential as an effective therapeutic approach for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Titanium and its alloys are commonly used to fabricate orthopedic implants due to their excellent mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. In recent years, orthopedic implant surgeries have considerably increased. This has also resulted in an increase in infection-associated revision surgeries for these implants. To combat this, various approaches are being investigated in the literature. One of the approaches is modifying the surface topography of implants and creating surfaces that are not only antifouling but also encourage osteointegration. Titania nanotube surfaces have demonstrated a moderate decrease in bacterial adhesion while encouraging mesenchymal stem cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation, and hence were used in this study. In this work, titania nanotube surfaces were fabricated using a simple anodization technique. These surfaces were further modified with copper using a physical vapor deposition technique, since copper is known to be potent against bacteria once in contact. In this study, scanning electron microscopy was used to evaluate surface topography; energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to evaluate surface chemistry; contact angle goniometry was used to evaluate surface wettability; and X-ray diffraction was used to evaluate surface crystallinity. Antifouling behavior against a gram-positive and a gram-negative bacterium was also investigated. The results indicate that copper-modified titania nanotube surfaces display enhanced antifouling behavior when compared to other surfaces, and this may be a potential way to prevent infection in orthopedic implants.

Abstract
In the presented work, chitosan hydrogel modified with lanthanum was obtained for the first time. The hydrogel was used as a carrier in the controlled release of epigallocatechin gallate. The work proved the effectiveness of drug sorption by hydrogel and controlled release in simulated body fluids. The drug was released slowly and in a controlled manner from the carrier. The research techniques used in this work (FT-IR spectroscopy and imaging, Raman spectroscopy, SEM/EDS) allowed to confirm the successful retention of EGCG on the hydrogel surface. On the basis of the EDS mapping, it was possible to confirm the even distribution of the lanthanum ions. Using FT-IR imaging, we verified that the drug was evenly distributed on the entire surface of the prepared material. The antifungal effectiveness of the material has been proven on several types of fungi. The research proved that the prepared material is capable of long-term release of the active substance and has antifungal properties. As a result, the prepared material can be successfully used as an implantable hydrogel or a coating in, e.g. titanium implants.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is the most common metabolic disease of the skeletal system and is characterized by impaired bone strength. This translates into an increased risk of low-energy fractures, which means fractures caused by disproportionate force. This disease is quite insidious, its presence is usually detected only at an advanced stage, where treatment with pharmaceuticals does not produce sufficient results. It is obligatory to replace the weakened bone with an implant. For this reason, it is necessary to look at the possibilities of surface modification used in tissue engineering, which, in combination with the drugs for osteoporosis, i.e., bisphosphonates, may constitute a new and effective method for preventing the deterioration of the osteoporotic state. To achieve this purpose, titanium implants coated with magnesium or zinc zeolite were prepared. Both the sorption and release profiles differed depending on the type of ion in the zeolite structure. The successful release of risedronate from the materials at a low level was proven. It can be concluded that the proposed solution will allow the preparation of endoprostheses for patients with bone diseases such as osteoporosis.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1124107. [PMID: 36777249 PMCID: PMC9908744 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1124107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
The primary goal of peri-implantitis treatments remains the decontamination of implant surfaces exposed to polymicrobial biofilms and renders biocompatibility. In this study, we reported a synergistic strategy for the debridement and re-osteogenesis of contaminated titanium by using erythritol air abrasion (AA) coupled with an as-synthesized pH-responsive antimicrobial agent. Here, the anionic antibacterial peptide Maximin H5 C-terminally deaminated isoform (MH5C) was introduced into the Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIF-8) via a one-pot synthesis process. The formed MH5C@ZIF-8 nanoparticles (NPs) not only possessed suitable stability, but also guarantee the slow-release effect of MH5C. Antibacterial experiments revealed that MH5C@ZIF-8 NPs exhibited excellent antimicrobial abilities toward pathogenic bacteria of peri-implantitis, confirming ZIF-8 NPs as efficient nanoplatforms for delivering antibacterial peptide. To evaluate the comprehensive debridement efficiency, single-species as well as mixed-species biofilms were successively established on commercially used titanium surfaces and decontaminated with different methods: removed only by erythritol air abrasion, treated merely with MH5C@ZIF-8 NPs, or received both managements. The results demonstrated that only erythritol air abrasion accompanied with MH5C@ZIF-8 NPs at high concentrations eliminated almost all retained bacteria and impeded biofilm rehabilitation, while neither erythritol air abrasion nor MH5C@ZIF-8 NPs alone could achieve this. Subsequently, we evaluated the re-osteogenesis on previously contaminated surfaces which were treated with different debridement methods afterwards. We found that cell growth and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in the group received both treatments (AA + MH5C@ZIF-8) were higher than those in other groups. Our work emphasized the great potential of the synergistic therapy as a credible alternative for removing microorganisms and rendering re-osseointegration on contaminated implant surfaces, boding well for the comprehensive applications in peri-implantitis treatments.
