Esmaeili M, Ghasemi S, Shariati L, Karbasi S. Evaluating the osteogenic properties of polyhydroxybutyrate-zein/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) electrospun composite scaffold for bone tissue engineering applications. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 276:133829. [PMID: 39002904 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133829] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2024] [Revised: 06/29/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
In this investigation, the electrospun nanocomposite scaffolds were developed utilizing poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB), zein, and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) at varying concentrations of MWCNTs including 0.5 and 1 wt%. Based on the SEM evaluations, the scaffold containing 1 wt% MWCNTs (PZ-1C) exhibited the lowest fiber diameter (384 ± 99 nm) alongside a suitable porosity percentage. The presence of zein and MWCNT in the chemical structure of the scaffold was evaluated by FTIR. Furthermore, TEM images revealed the alignment of MWCNTs with the fibers. Adding 1 % MWCNTs to the PHB-zein scaffold significantly enhanced tensile strength by about 69 % and reduced elongation by about 31 %. Hydrophilicity, surface roughness, crystallinity, and biomineralization were increased by incorporating 1 wt% MWCNTs, while weight loss after in vitro degradation was decreased. The MG-63 cells exhibited enhanced attachment, viability, ALP secretion, calcium deposition, and gene expression (COLI, RUNX2, and OCN) when cultivated on the scaffold containing MWCNTs compared to the scaffolds lacking MWCNTs. Moreover, the study found that MWCNTs significantly reduced platelet adhesion and hemolysis rates below 4 %, indicating their favorable anti-hemolysis properties. Regarding the aforementioned results, the PZ-1C electrospun composite scaffold is a promising scaffold with osteogenic properties for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Bone tissue defects present a major challenge in orthopedic surgery. Bone tissue engineering using multiple versatile bioactive materials is a potential strategy for bone-defect repair and regeneration. Due to their unique physicochemical and mechanical properties, biofunctional materials can enhance cellular adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation, thereby supporting and stimulating the formation of new bone tissue. 3D bioprinting and physical stimuli-responsive strategies have been employed in various studies on bone regeneration for the fabrication of desired multifunctional biomaterials with integrated bone tissue repair and regeneration properties. In this review, biomaterials applied to bone tissue engineering, emerging 3D bioprinting techniques, and physical stimuli-responsive strategies for the rational manufacturing of novel biomaterials with bone therapeutic and regenerative functions are summarized. Furthermore, the impact of biomaterials on the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells and the potential pathways associated with biomaterial-induced osteogenesis are discussed.

Abstract
This study presents a facile fabrication of 58S bioactive glass (BG)-polymer composite coatings on a 316L stainless steel (SS) substrate using the electrophoretic deposition technique. The suspension characteristics and deposition kinetics of BG, along with three different polymers, namely ethylcellulose (EC), poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), have been utilized to fabricate the coatings. Among all coatings, 58S BG and EC polymers are selected as the final composite coating (EC6) owing to their homogeneity and good adhesion. EC6 coating exhibits a thickness of ∼18 μm and an average roughness of ∼2.5 μm. Herein, EC6 demonstrates better hydroxyapatite formation compared to PAA and PVP coatings in simulated body fluid-based mineralization studies for a period of 28 days. Corrosion studies of EC6 in phosphate-buffered saline further confirm the higher corrosion resistance properties after 14 days. In vitro cytocompatibility studies using human placental mesenchymal stem cells demonstrate an increase in cellular viability, attachment, and higher proliferation compared to the bare SS substrate. EC6 coatings promote osteogenic differentiation, which is confirmed via the upregulation of the OPN and OCN genes. Moreover, the EC6 sample exhibits improved antibacterial properties against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus compared to the uncoated ones. The findings of this work emphasize the potential of electrophoretically fabricated BG-EC composite coatings on SS substrates for orthopedic applications.

A comparative analysis of the cytocompatibility, protein adsorption, osteogenic and angiogenic properties of the 45S5- and S53P4-bioactive glass compositions. Biomed Mater 2024; 19:025027. [PMID: 38266275 DOI: 10.1088/1748-605x/ad2210] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 01/26/2024]
Abstract
Despite their long history of application in orthopedics, the osteogenic and angiogenic properties as well as the cytocompatibility and protein adsorption of the 45S5- (in wt%: 45.0 SiO2, 24.5 Na2O, 24.5 CaO, 6.0 P2O5) and S53P4- (in wt%: 53.0 SiO2, 23.0 Na2O, 20.0 CaO, 4.0 P2O5) bioactive glass (BG) compositions have not yet been directly compared in one and the same experimental setting. In this study, the influence of morphologically equal granules of both BGs on proliferation, viability, osteogenic differentiation and angiogenic response of human bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) was assessed. Furthermore, their impact on vascular tube formation and adsorption of relevant proteins was evaluated. Both BGs showed excellent cytocompatibility and stimulated osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. The 45S5-BG showed enhanced stimulation of bone morphogenic protein 2 (BMP2) gene expression and protein production compared to S53P4-BG. While gene expression and protein production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were stimulated, both BGs had only limited influence on tubular network formation. 45S5-BG adsorbed a higher portion of proteins, namely BMP2 and VEGF, on its surface. In conclusion, both BGs show favorable properties with slight advantages for 45S5-BG. Since protein adsorption on BG surfaces is important for their biological performance, the composition of the proteome formed by osteogenic cells cultured on BGs should be analyzed in order to gain a deeper understanding of the mechanisms that are responsible for BG-mediated stimulation of osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
The conventional approach for addressing bone defects and stubborn non-unions typically involves the use of autogenous bone grafts. Nevertheless, obtaining these grafts can be challenging, and the procedure can lead to significant morbidity. Three primary treatment strategies for managing bone defects and non-unions prove resistant to conventional treatments: synthetic bone graft substitutes (BGS), a combination of BGS with bioactive molecules, and the use of BGS in conjunction with stem cells. In the realm of synthetic BGS, a multitude of biomaterials have emerged for creating scaffolds in bone tissue engineering (TE). These materials encompass biometals like titanium, iron, magnesium, and zinc, as well as bioceramics such as hydroxyapatite (HA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP). Bone TE scaffolds serve as temporary implants, fostering tissue ingrowth and the regeneration of new bone. They are meticulously designed to enhance bone healing by optimizing geometric, mechanical, and biological properties. These scaffolds undergo continual remodeling facilitated by bone cells like osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Through various signaling pathways, stem cells and bone cells work together to regulate bone regeneration when a portion of bone is damaged or deformed. By targeting signaling pathways, bone TE can improve bone defects through effective therapies. This review provided insights into the interplay between cells and the current state of bioceramics in the context of bone regeneration.

Abstract
Due to the limitations of the current treatment approaches of allograft and autograft techniques, treating bone disorders is a significant challenge. To address these shortcomings, a novel biomaterial composite is required. This study presents the preparation and fabrication of a novel biomaterial composite scaffold that combines poly (D, L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA), mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG), molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), and simvastatin (Sim) to address the limitations of current bone grafting techniques of autograft and allograft. The fabricated scaffold of PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composites was developed using a low-cost hydraulic press and salt leaching method, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis confirmed the scaffolds have a pore size between 143 and 240 μm. The protein adsorption for fabricated scaffolds was increased at 24 h. The water adsorption and retention studies showed significant results on the PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composite scaffold. The biodegradation studies of the PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composite scaffold have shown 54% after 28 days. In vitro, bioactivity evaluation utilizing simulated body fluid studies confirmed the development of bone mineral hydroxyapatite on the scaffolds, which was characterized using x-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, and SEM analysis. Furthermore, the PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composite scaffold is biocompatible with C3H10T1/2 cells and expresses more alkaline phosphatase and mineralization activity. Additionally, in vivo research showed that PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim stimulates a higher rate of bone regeneration. These findings highlight the fabricated PLGA-MBG-MoS2-Sim composite scaffold presents a promising solution for the limitations of current bone grafting techniques.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the osteogenic and antimicrobial effect of bioactive glass S53P4 incorporated into β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds in vitro and the bone neoformation in vivo. β-TCP and β-TCP/S53P4 scaffolds were prepared by the gel casting method. Samples were morphologically and physically characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). In vitro tests were performed using MG63 cells. American Type Culture Collection reference strains were used to determine the scaffold's antimicrobial potential. Defects were created in the tibia of New Zealand rabbits and filled with experimental scaffolds. The incorporation of S53P4 bioglass promotes significant changes in the crystalline phases formed and in the morphology of the surface of the scaffolds. The β-TCP/S53P4 scaffolds did not demonstrate an in vitro cytotoxic effect, presented similar alkaline phosphatase activity, and induced a significantly higher protein amount when compared to β-TCP. The expression of Itg β1 in the β-TCP scaffold was higher than in the β-TCP/S53P4, and there was higher expression of Col-1 in the β-TCP/S53P4 group. Higher bone formation and antimicrobial activity were observed in the β-TCP/S53P4 group. The results confirm the osteogenic capacity of β-TCP ceramics and suggest that, after bioactive glass S53P4 incorporation, it can prevent microbial infections, demonstrating to be an excellent biomaterial for application in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Bioactive glass (BaG) materials are increasingly used in clinics, but their regulatory mechanisms on osteogenic differentiation remain understudied. In this study, we elucidated the currently unknown role of the p38 MAPK downstream target heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), in the osteogenic commitment of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), derived from adipose tissue (hASCs) and bone marrow (hBMSCs). Osteogenesis was induced with ionic extract of an experimental BaG in osteogenic medium (OM). Our results showed that BaG OM induced fast osteogenesis of hASCs and hBMSCs, demonstrated by enhanced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, production of extracellular matrix protein collagen type I, and matrix mineralization. BaG OM stimulated early and transient activation of p38/HSP27 signaling by phosphorylation in hMSCs. Inhibition of HSP27 phosphorylation with SB202190 reduced the ALP activity, mineralization, and collagen type I production induced by BaG OM. Furthermore, the reduced pHSP27 protein by SB202190 corresponded to a reduced F-actin intensity of hMSCs. The phosphorylation of HSP27 allowed its co-localization with the cytoskeleton. In terminally differentiated cells, however, pHSP27 was found diffusely in the cytoplasm. This study provides the first evidence that HSP27 is involved in hMSC osteogenesis induced with the ionic dissolution products of BaG. Our results indicate that HSP27 phosphorylation plays a role in the osteogenic commitment of hMSCs, possibly through the interaction with the cytoskeleton.

In this study, the electrospun nanocomposite scaffolds based on polyhydroxybutyrate(PHB)-Starch-multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were fabricated with different concentrations of MWCNTs including 0.5, 0.75 and 1 wt%. The synthesized scaffolds were characterized in terms of morphology, porosity, thermal and mechanical properties, biodegradation, bioactivity, and cell behavior. The effect of the developed structures on MG63 cells was determined by real-time PCR quantification of collagen type I, osteocalcin, osteopontin and osteonectin genes. Our results showed that the scaffold containing 1 wt% MWCNTs presented the lowest fiber diameter (124 ± 44 nm) with a porosity percentage above 80 % and the highest tensile strength (24.37 ± 0.22 MPa). The addition of MWCNTs has a positive effect on surface roughness and hydrophilicity. The formation of calcium phosphate sediments on the surface of the scaffolds after immersion in SBF is observed by SEM and verified by EDS and XRD analysis.MG63 cells were well cultured on the scaffold containing MWCNTs and presented more cell viability, ALP secretion, calcium deposition and gene expression compared to the scaffolds without MWCNTs. The PHB-starch-1wt.%MWCNTs scaffold can be considerable for studies of supplemental bone tissue engineering applications.

Electroactive Hydroxyapatite/Carbon Nanofiber Scaffolds for Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 24:ijms24010530. [PMID: 36613973 PMCID: PMC9820130 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24010530] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2022] [Revised: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Traditional bone defect treatments are limited by an insufficient supply of autologous bone, the immune rejection of allogeneic bone grafts, and high medical costs. To address this medical need, bone tissue engineering has emerged as a promising option. Among the existing tissue engineering materials, the use of electroactive scaffolds has become a common strategy in bone repair. However, single-function electroactive scaffolds are not sufficient for scientific research or clinical application. On the other hand, multifunctional electroactive scaffolds are often complicated and expensive to prepare. Therefore, we propose a new tissue engineering strategy that optimizes the electrical properties and biocompatibility of carbon-based materials. Here, a hydroxyapatite/carbon nanofiber (HAp/CNF) scaffold with optimal electrical activity was prepared by electrospinning HAp nanoparticle-incorporated polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and then carbonizing the fibers. Biochemical assessments of the markers of osteogenesis in human adipose-derived stem cells (h-ADSCs) cultured on HAp/CNF scaffolds demonstrate that the material promoted the osteogenic differentiation of h-ADSCs in the absence of an osteogenic factor. The results of this study show that electroactive carbon materials with a fibrous structure can promote the osteogenic differentiation of h-ADSCs, providing a new strategy for the preparation and application of carbon-based materials in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
In this paper, given the lack of osteogenic activity of sodium alginate (SA) hydrogel and to simulate the composition of natural bone, ionic-crosslinking NBG/n-HA/SA hydrogel scaffolds were prepared by using nano bioactive glass (NBG) and nano hydroxyapatite (n-HA) with high bioactivity as composite calcium sources and reinforcement phases, and D-gluconic acid δ-lactone (GDL) as the coagulant. The results showed that the mixture of the precursor forming the network had good injectability and plasticity. When the dosage of GDL was 0.75 g, the gelling time of the composite hydrogel could be regulated within 4-8 min, and the hydrogel had high compressive strength (170-220 kPa), as well. When the mass ratio of calcium source to SA was 1:1, the crosslinking network was relatively uniform with a considerable number of large pores around 40 μm in the structure. In the immersion experiment in vitro, it was found that the composite hydrogel could promote the deposition of bone-like apatite on the material's surface. Meanwhile, the cell experiments in vitro verified that the NBG/n-HA/SA composite hydrogel had good cytocompatibility without cytotoxicity. Moreover, the composite hydrogel could enhance the activity of ALP of mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, and thus, it had good osteogenic activity.

Mechanical Properties and In Vitro Biocompatibility of Hybrid Polymer-HA/BAG Ceramic Dental Materials. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14183774.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to prepare hybrid polymer-ceramic dental materials for chairside computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) applications. The hybrid polymer-ceramic materials were fabricated via infiltrating polymerizable monomer mixtures into sintered hydroxyapatite/bioactive glass (HA/BAG) ceramic blocks and thermo-curing. The microstructure was observed by scanning electron microscopy and an energy-dispersive spectrometer. The phase structure was analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The composition ratio was analyzed by a thermogravimetric analyzer. The hardness was measured by a Vickers hardness tester. The flexural strength, flexural modulus, and compressive strength were measured and calculated by a universal testing machine. The growth of human gingival fibroblasts was evaluated by a 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) colorimetric assay and immunofluorescence staining. The results showed that the sintering temperature and BAG content affected the mechanical properties of the hybrid polymer-ceramic materials. The X-ray diffraction analysis showed that high-temperature sintering promoted the partial conversion of HA to β-tricalcium phosphate. The values of the hardness, flexural strength, flexural modulus, and compressive strength of all the hybrid polymer-ceramic materials were 0.89-3.51 GPa, 57.61-118.05 MPa, 20.26-39.77 GPa, and 60.36-390.46 MPa, respectively. The mechanical properties of the hybrid polymer-ceramic materials were similar to natural teeth. As a trade-off between flexural strength and hardness, hybrid polymer-ceramic material with 20 wt.% BAG sintered at 1000 °C was the best material. In vitro experiments confirmed the biocompatibility of the hybrid polymer-ceramic material. Therefore, the hybrid polymer-ceramic material is expected to become a new type of dental restoration material.

Abstract
The adaptive foam reticulation technique combines the foam reticulation and freeze casting methodologies of fabricating bone reparative scaffolds to offer a potential alternative to autografts. For the first time this paper studies the effect of processing on the mechanical properties and in-vitro cell growth of controllably generating a hierarchical structure of macro- (94 ± 6 to 514 ± 36 μm) and microporosity (2-30 μm) by the inclusion of camphene as a porogen during processing. Scaffolds were produced with porogen additions of 0-25 wt%. Porosity values of the structures of 85-96% were determined using the Archimedes technique and verified using X-ray Computed Tomography. The strength of the hydroxyapatite scaffolds, 5.70 ± 1.0 to 159 ± 61 kPa, correlated to theoretically determined values, 3.71 ± 0.8 to 134 ± 12 kPa, calculated by the novel incorporation of a shape factor into a standard equation. Fibroblast (3T3) and pre-osteoblast (MC3T3) cell growth was found to be significantly (P < 0.005) improved using 25 wt% porogen. This was supported by increased levels of alkaline phosphatase and was thought to result from greater dissolution as quantified by increased calcium levels in incubating media. The combination of these properties renders adaptive foam reticulation-fabricated scaffolds suitable for non-structural bone regenerative applications in non-load bearing bone defects.

Abstract
Three dimensional (3D) substrates based on natural and synthetic polymers enhance the osteogenic and mechanical properties of the bone tissue engineering scaffolds. Here, a novel bioactive composite scaffolds from polycaprolactone /kappa-carrageenan were developed for bone regeneration applications. 3D PCL scaffolds were fabricated by 3D printing method followed by coating with carboxymethyl kappa-carrageenan. This organic film was used to create calcium and strontium phosphate layers via a modified alternate soaking process in CaCl 2 /SrCl 2 and Na2HPO4 solutions in which calcium ions were replaced by strontium, with different amounts of strontium in the solutions. Various characterization techniques were executed to analyze the effects of strontium ion on the scaffold properties. The morphological results demonstrated the highly porous with interconnected pores and uniform pore sizes scaffolds. It was indicated that the highest crystallinity and compressive strength were obtained when 100% CaCl2 was replaced by SrCl2 in the solution (P-C-Sr). Incorporation of Sr onto the structure increased the degradation rate of the scaffolds. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) culture on the scaffolds showed that Sr effectively improved attachment and viability of the MSCs and accelerated osteogenic differentiation as revealed by Alkaline phosphatase activity, calcium content and Real Time-Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assays.

The Effect of Strontium-Substituted Hydroxyapatite Nanofibrous Matrix on Osteoblast Proliferation and Differentiation. MEMBRANES 2021; 11:membranes11080624.

Abstract
Natural bone tissue consists primarily of bioapatite and collagen. Synthetic hydroxyapatite (HA) possesses good biocompatibility, bioactivity, and osteoconductivity due to its chemical and biological similarity to bioapatite. Hence, HA has been widely used as a bone graft, cell carrier and drug/gene delivery carrier. Moreover, strontium-substituted hydroxyapatite (SrHA) can enhance osteogenic differentiation and inhibit adipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. Hence, SrHA has the potential to be used as a bone graft for bone regeneration. It is widely accepted that cell adhesion and most cellular activities are sensitive to the topography and molecular composition of the matrix. Electrospun polymer or polymer-bioceramic composite nanofibers have been demonstrated to enhance osteoblast differentiation. However, to date, no studies have investigated the effect of nanofibrous bioceramic matrices on osteoblasts. In this study, hydroxyapatite nanofiber (HANF) and strontium-substituted hydroxyapatite nanofiber (SrHANF) matrices were fabricated by electrospinning. The effect of the HANF components on MG63 osteoblast-like cells was evaluated by cell morphology, proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) and gene expression levels of RUNX2, COLI, OCN and BSP. The results showed that MG63 osteoblast-like cells exhibited higher ALP and gene expression levels of RUNX2, COLI, BSP and OCN on the SrHANF matrix than the HANF matrix. Hence, SrHANFs could enhance the differentiation of MG63 osteoblast-like cells.

Abstract
This work investigates the bioactivity of novel silver-doped (BG-Ag) and gold-doped (BG-Au) quaternary 46S6 bioactive glasses synthesized via a semi-solid-state technique. A pseudo-second-order kinetic model successfully predicted the in vitro uptake kinetic profiles of the initial ion-exchange release of Ca in simulated body fluid, the subsequent Si release, and finally, the adsorption of Ca and P onto the bioactive glasses. Doping with silver nanoparticles enhanced the rate of P uptake by up to approximately 90%; whereas doping with gold nanoparticles improved Ca and P uptake rates by up to about 7 and 2 times, respectively; as well as Ca uptake capacity by up to about 19%. The results revealed that the combined effect of Ca and Si release, and possibly the release of silver and gold ions into solution, influenced apatite formation due to their effect on Ca and P uptake rate and capacity. In general, gold-doped bioactive glasses are favoured for enhancing Ca and P uptake rates in addition to Ca uptake capacity. However, silver-doped bioactive glasses being less expensive can be utilized for applications targeting rapid healing. In vitro studies showed that BG, BG-Ag and BG-Au had no cytotoxic effects on osteosarcoma MG-63 cells, while they exhibited a remarkable cell proliferation even at low concentration. The prepared bioactive glass doped with noble metal nanoparticles could be potentially used in bone regeneration applications.

Abstract
Bone defects and periodontal disease are pathological conditions that may become neglected diseases if not treated properly. Hydroxyapatite (HA), along with tricalcium phosphate and bioglass ceramic, is a biomaterial widely applied to orthopedic and dental uses. The in vivo performance of HA is determined by the interaction between HA particles with bone cells, particularly the bone mineralizing cells osteoblasts. It has been reported that HA-induced osteoblastic differentiation by increasing the expression of osteogenic transcription factors. However, the pathway involved and the events that occur in the cell membrane have not been well understood and remain controversial. Advances in gene editing and the discovery of pharmacologic inhibitors assist researchers to better understand osteoblastic differentiation. This review summarizes the involvement of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), p38, Wnt, and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) in osteoblastic cellular regulation induced by HA. These advances enhance the current understanding of the molecular mechanism of HA as a biomaterial. Moreover, they provide a better strategy for the design of HA to be utilized in bone engineering.

Abstract
Bone reconstruction in the oral and maxillofacial region presents particular challenges related to the development of biomaterials with osteoinductive properties and suitable physical characteristics for their surgical use in irregular bony defects. In this work, the preparation and bioactivity of chitosan-gelatin (ChG) hydrogel beads loaded with either bioactive glass nanoparticles (nBG) or mesoporous bioactive glass nanospheres (nMBG) were studied.In vitrotesting of the bionanocomposite beads was carried out in simulated body fluid, and through viability and osteogenic differentiation assays using dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs).In vivobone regenerative properties of the biomaterials were assessed using a rat femoral defect model and compared with a traditional maxillary allograft (Puros®). ChG hydrogel beads containing homogeneously distributed BG nanoparticles promoted rapid bone-like apatite mineralization and induced the osteogenic differentiation of DPSCsin vitro. The bionanocomposite beads loaded with either nBG or nMBG also produced a greater bone tissue formationin vivoas compared to Puros® after 8 weeks of implantation. The osteoinductivity capacity of the bionanocomposite hydrogel beads coupled with their physical properties make them promissory for the reconstruction of irregular and less accessible maxillary bone defects.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanopowders with different manganese (Mn) and selenium (Se) contents with Mn/Ca and Se/P molar ratio of 1 mol%, 2.5 mol% and 5 mol% were synthesized by wet-co-chemical precipitation method. The results revealed that with either Mn or Se doping, ion-substituted apatite phase was achieved with good crystallographic features. The combined evidence obtained from spectrometric techniques revealed that nanocrystalline HAP was effectively doped with Mn and Se ions, where Se in form of SeO32- replaced PO43- and Mn2+ replaced Ca2+. Mn and Se doped HAP samples exhibited rod-like and needle-like morphology with strong tendency to form agglomerates. HAP enriched with Mn and Se represented a strong antibacterial effect and also showed prominent blood compatibility. From the biocompatibility testing, it was evident that Mn and Se doped HAP augmented the osteoblasts adhesion, migration and proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. To conclude from this study, it is clearly evident that the doping amount of both Mn and Se ions can determine the size and morphology of the final HAP product. Therefore, Mn and Se HAP nanopowders with molar ratio less than 5 mol% without any heat treatment can provide good crystallographic features to HAP with satisfying micro-structural, thermal and biological properties.

Abstract
Bioactive glasses (BAGs) were invented five decades ago and have been widely used clinically in orthopedic and stomatology. However, in the past two decades, BAGs have been explored immensely by several researchers worldwide as a multifunctional delivery system for a multitude of therapeutics ranging from metal ions to small molecules (e.g., drugs) and macromolecules (e.g., DNA). The impetus for devising a BAG-based delivery system in the 21st century is based upon the facilitative properties it offers for entrapment of a wide range of therapeutic molecules and the tailorable controlled release kinetics to the target tissue site along with the biological activity of the ionic dissolution products in several pathological conditions such as osteoporosis, cancer, infection, and inflammation. This review comprises two parts: the first part discusses the need for a new delivery system and how the journey from melt quench progressed towards template-based sol-gel mesoporous. In the second part, we have comprehended the scientific advancements made so far, emphasizing BAGs as a delivery system ranging from therapeutic ions to phytopharmaceuticals. We have also highlighted a few loopholes that have prevented bench-to-bedside clinical translation of a plethora of elucidative researches done so far.

[PMID: 33294736 PMCID: PMC7691683 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2020.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 64] [Impact Index Per Article: 21.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2020] [Revised: 11/03/2020] [Accepted: 11/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Bone defects are commonly caused by severe trauma, malignant tumors, or congenital diseases and remain among the toughest clinical problems faced by orthopedic surgeons, especially when of critical size. Biodegradable zinc-based metals have recently gained popularity for their desirable biocompatibility, suitable degradation rate, and favorable osteogenesis-promoting properties. The biphasic activity of Sr promotes osteogenesis and inhibits osteoclastogenesis, which imparts Zn-Sr alloys with the ideal theoretical osteogenic properties. Herein, a biodegradable Zn-Sr binary alloy system was fabricated. The cytocompatibility and osteogenesis of the Zn-Sr alloys were significantly better than those of pure Zn in MC3T3-E1 cells. RNA-sequencing illustrated that the Zn-0.8Sr alloy promoted osteogenesis by activating the wnt/β-catenin, PI3K/Akt, and MAPK/Erk signaling pathways. Furthermore, rat femoral condyle defects were repaired using Zn-0.8Sr alloy scaffolds, with pure Ti as a control. The scaffold-bone integration and bone ingrowth confirmed the favorable in vivo repair properties of the Zn-Sr alloy, which was verified to offer satisfactory biosafety based on the hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining and ion concentration testing of important organs. The Zn-0.8Sr alloy was identified as an ideal bone repair material candidate, especially for application in critical-sized defects on load-bearing sites due to its favorable biocompatibility and osteogenic properties in vitro and in vivo.

Sol-Gel Synthesis, in vitro Behavior, and Human Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Differentiation and Proliferation of Bioactive Glass 58S. IRANIAN BIOMEDICAL JOURNAL 2021. [PMID: 33639637 PMCID: PMC8183389 DOI: 10.52547/ibj.25.3.180] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Background: Bioactive glasses 58S, are silicate-based materials containing calcium and phosphate, which dissolved in body fluid and bond to the bone tissue. This type of bioactive glass is highly biocompatible and has a wide range of clinical applications. Methods: The 58S glass powders were synthesized via sol-gel methods, using tetraethyl orthosilicate, triethyl phosphate, and calcium nitrate, as precursors. Upon the analyses of phase and chemical structures of bioactive glass in different gelation times (12, 48, and 100 h), the appropriate heat treatment (at 525, 575, and 625 °C) was performed to eliminate nitrate compounds and stabilize the glass powder samples. The in vitro assay in SBF solution revealed the bioactivity of the synthesized 58S glass through the morphological (SEM), chemical structure (FTIR), release of calcium, phosphorous and silicon elements, pH variations, and weight loss measurements. The behavior of MSCs in the presence of bioactive glass powders was studied by MTT cytotoxicity, cell staining, ALP activity and biomineralization tests, as well as by the evaluation of ALP, osteocalcin, osteonectin, collagenI, and RUNX2 gene expression. Results: The results confirmed a gelation time of 100 h and a calcination temperature of 575 °C at optimal conditions for the synthesis of nitrate-free bioactive glass powders. Conclusion: The glass spherical nanoparticles in the range of 20-30 nm possess the improved bioactivity and osteogenic properties as demanded for bone tissue engineering.

An experimental and theoretical approach on stability towards hydrolysis of triethyl phosphate and its effects on the microstructure of sol-gel-derived bioactive silicate glass. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2021; 120:111759. [PMID: 33545900 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2020.111759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2020] [Revised: 11/16/2020] [Accepted: 11/21/2020] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
The sol-gel method is versatile and one of the well-established synthetic approaches for preparing bioactive glass with improved microstructure. In a successful approach, alkoxide precursors undergo rapid hydrolysis, followed by immediate condensation leading to the formation of three-dimensional gels. On the other hand, a slow kinetics rate for hydrolysis of one or more alkoxide precursors generates a mismatch in the progression of the consecutive reactions of the sol-gel process, which makes it difficult to form homogeneous multicomponent glass products. The amorphous phase separation (APS) into the gel is thermodynamically unstable and tends to transform into a crystalline form during the calcination step of xerogel. In the present study, we report a combined experimental and theoretical method to investigate the stability towards hydrolysis of triethyl phosphate (TEP) and its effects on the mechanism leading to phase separation in 58S bioactive glass obtained via sol-gel route. A multitechnical approach for the experimental characterization combined with calculations of functional density theory (DFT) suggest that TEP should not undergo hydrolysis by water under acidic conditions during the formation of the sol or even in the gel phase. The activation energy barrier (ΔG‡) showed a height of about 20 kcal·mol-1 for the three stages of hydrolysis and the reaction rates calculated for each stage of TEP hydrolysis were kFHR = 7.0 × 10-3s-1, kSHR = 6.8 × 10-3s-1 and kTHR = 3.5 × 10-3s-1. These results show that TEP remains in the non-hydrolyzed form segregated within the xerogel matrix until its thermal decomposition in the calcination step, when P species preferentially associate with calcium ions (labile species) and other phosphate groups present nearby, forming crystalline domains of calcium pyrophosphates permeated by the silica-rich glass matrix. Together, our data expand the knowledge about the synthesis by the sol-gel method of bioactive glass and establishes a mechanism that explains the role played by the precursor source of phosphorus (TEP) in the phase separation, an event commonly observed for these biomaterials.

Abstract
Collagen, gelatin, silk fibroin, hyaluronic acid, chitosan, alginate, and cellulose are biocompatible and non-cytotoxic, being attractive natural polymers for medical devices for both soft and hard tissues. However, such natural polymers have low bioactivity and poor mechanical properties, which limit their applications. To tackle these drawbacks, collagen, gelatin, silk fibroin, hyaluronic acid, chitosan, alginate, and cellulose can be combined with bioactive glass (BG) nanoparticles and microparticles to produce composites. The incorporation of BGs improves the mechanical properties of the final system as well as its bioactivity and regenerative potential. Indeed, several studies have demonstrated that polymer/BG composites may improve angiogenesis, neo-vascularization, cells adhesion, and proliferation. This review presents the state of the art and future perspectives of collagen, gelatin, silk fibroin, hyaluronic acid, chitosan, alginate, and cellulose matrices combined with BG particles to develop composites such as scaffolds, injectable fillers, membranes, hydrogels, and coatings. Emphasis is devoted to the biological potentialities of these hybrid systems, which look rather promising toward a wide spectrum of applications.

Abstract
Bone injuries occur due to various traumatic and disease conditions. Healing of bone injury occurs via a multi-stage intricate process. Body has the potential to rectify most of the bone injuries but some severe traumatic cases with critical size defects may require interventions. Autografts are still considered the "gold standard" for fracture healing but due to limitations associated with it, new alternatives are warranted. The field of orthobiologics has provided novel approaches using scaffolds, bioactive molecules, stem cells for the treatment of bone defects. Phyto-bioactives have been widely used in alternative medicine and folklore practices for curing bone ailments. It is believed that different bioactive constituents in plants work synergistically to give the therapeutic efficacy. Bioactives in plants extracts act upon different signal transduction pathways aiding in bone healing. The present review focuses on the use, chemical composition, mode of delivery, mechanism of action, and possible future strategies of three medicinal plants popularly used in traditional medicine for bone healing: Cissus quadrangularis, Withania somnifera and Tinospora cordifolia. Plants extracts seem to be a natural and non-toxic therapeutic alternative in treating bone injuries. Most of the studies on bone healing for these plants have reported oral administration of the extracts and presented them as a safe alternative without any side effects despite giving higher doses. Forthcoming studies could be directed towards the local delivery of extracts at the defect site. Unification of herbal extracts and orthobiologics could be an interesting direction in the field of bone healing in future. The present review intends to provide a bird's eye view of different strategies used in bone healing, mechanisms involved and future direction of advancements using phytobioactives and orthobiologics.

Abstract
The global incidence of bone tissue injuries has been increasing rapidly in recent years, making it imperative to develop suitable bone grafts for facilitating bone tissue regeneration. It has been demonstrated that nanomaterials/nanocomposites scaffolds can more effectively promote new bone tissue formation compared with micromaterials. This may be attributed to their nanoscaled structural and topological features that better mimic the physiological characteristics of natural bone tissue. In this review, we examined the current applications of various nanomaterial/nanocomposite scaffolds and different topological structures for bone tissue engineering, as well as the underlying mechanisms of regeneration. The potential risks and toxicity of nanomaterials will also be critically discussed. Finally, some considerations for the clinical applications of nanomaterials/nanocomposites scaffolds for bone tissue engineering are mentioned.

Abstract
The primary aim of tissue engineering scaffolds is to mimic the in vivo environment and promote tissue growth. In this quest, a number of strategies have been developed such as enhancing cell-material interactions through modulation of scaffold physico-chemical parameters. However, more is required for scaffolds to relate to the cell natural environment. Growth factors (GFs) secreted by cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) are involved in both normal repair and abnormal remodeling. The direct use of GFs on their own or when incorporated within scaffolds represent a number of challenges such as release rate, stability and shelf-life. Small molecules have been proposed as promising alternatives to GFs as they are able to minimize or overcome many shortcomings of GFs, in particular immune response and instability. Despite the promise of small molecules in various TE applications, their direct use is limited by nonspecific adverse effects on non-target tissues and organs. Hence, they have been incorporated within scaffolds to localize their actions and control their release to target sites. However, scanty rationale is available which links the chemical structure of these molecules with their mode of action. We herewith review various small molecules either when used on their own or when incorporated within polymeric carriers/scaffolds for bone, cartilage, neural, adipose and skin tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an inflammatory disease, in which the host immuno-inflammatory response against the dysbiotic subgingival biofilm leads to the breakdown of periodontal tissues. Most of the available treatments seem to be effective in the short-term; nevertheless, permanent periodical controls and patient compliance compromise long-term success. Different strategies have been proposed for the modulation of the host immune response as potential therapeutic tools to take a better care of most susceptible periodontitis patients, such as drug local delivery approaches. Though, maintaining an effective drug concentration for a prolonged period of time has not been achieved yet. In this context, advanced drug delivery strategies using biodegradable nanocarriers have been proposed to avoid toxicity and frequency-related problems of treatment. The versatility of distinct nanocarriers allows the improvement of their loading and release capabilities and could be potentially used for microbiological control, periodontal regeneration, and/or immunomodulation. In the present review, we revise and discuss the most frequent biodegradable nanocarrier strategies proposed for the treatment of periodontitis, including polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), chitosan, and silica-derived nanoparticles, and further suggest novel therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Bionanocomposite scaffolds based on aliphatic polyurethane (PU) and bioactive glass nanoparticles were produced by using a one-step in situ polymerization method. Bioactive glass nanoparticles (nBG) or mesoporous BG nanospheres (nMBG) were incorporated during the polymerization reaction to produce simultaneous formation and foaming of porous nanocomposite scaffolds. The in vitro bioactivity of the scaffolds was assessed in simulated body fluid (SBF), and through cytocompatibility and osteogenic differentiation assays with stem cells. Bone regeneration properties of the scaffold materials were in vivo assessed by using a critical-sized femoral defect model in rat. The scaffold nanocomposites showed excellent cytocompatibility and ability to accelerate the crystallization of bone-like apatite in vitro. nBG/PU bionanocomposite scaffold exhibited the higher capacity to stimulate osteogenic cell differentiation as judged by an increased ALP activity and the presence of mineralized nodules associated with the stem cells. nBG (5%)/PU scaffold significantly also produces in vivo a denser and more significant amount of new bone after 8 weeks of implantation, which is attributed to the more rapid dissolution rate of nBG into osteogenic ionic products compared to nMBG. The results of this work show that the in situ polymerization method combined with the use of nanodimensional BG particles enable the production of PU - based scaffolds with enhanced bioactive properties to stimulate the bone tissue regeneration.

Phytosynthesis of gold nanoparticles: Characterization, biocompatibility, and evaluation of its osteoinductive potential for application in implant dentistry. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING.

[PMID: 30274099 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2018.08.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2017] [Revised: 07/30/2018] [Accepted: 08/09/2018] [Indexed: 10/28/2022]
Abstract
Gold nanoparticles have been extensively used in diagnostics, biomedical imaging, and drug delivery owing to simple method of synthesis and versatile surface functionalization. Present investigation aims to evaluate the osteoinductive property of Salacia chinensis (SC) mediated gold nanoparticles (GNPs) for its application in implant dentistry. The formation of GNPs was assessed initially using the visual method and characterized analytically by using UV-visible spectroscopy, Zetasizer, X-RD, ICP-AES, AFM, and TEM. Green synthesized GNPs exhibited a remarkable stability in various blood components (0.2 M histidine, 0.2 M cysteine 2% bovine serum albumin, and 2% human serum albumin) and were found to be nontoxic when evaluated for their cytocompatibility and blood compatibility using periodontal fibroblasts and erythrocytes respectively. Exposure of GNPs to MG-63 cell lines displayed increased percent cell viability (138 ± 27.4) compared to the control group (96 ± 3.7) which confirms its osteoinductive potential. Herein, it can be concluded that the stable, biocompatible and eco-friendly GNPs can be used as an effective bone inductive agent during dental implant therapy.

[PMID: 29448144 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2018.02.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2017] [Revised: 01/22/2018] [Accepted: 02/02/2018] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Biomedical cements are considered promising injectable materials for bone repair and regeneration. Calcium phosphate composition sized with tens of micrometers is currently one of the major powder forms. Here we report a unique cement form made from mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGn). The nanopowder could harden in reaction with aqueous solution at powder-to-liquid ratios as low as 0.4-0.5 (vs. 2.0-3.0 for conventional calcium phosphate cement CPC). The cementation mechanism investigated from TEM, XRD, FT-IR, XPS, and NMR analyses was demonstrated to be the ionic (Si and Ca) dissolution and then reprecipitation to form Si-Ca-(P) based amorphous nano-islands that could network the particles. The nanopowder-derived nanocement exhibited high surface area (78.7 m2/g); approximately 9 times higher than conventional CPC. The immersion of nanocement in simulated body fluid produced apatite nanocrystallites with ultrafine size of 10 nm (vs. 55 nm in CPC). The ultrafine nanocement adsorbed protein molecules (particularly positive charged proteins) at substantial levels; approximately 160 times higher than CPC. The nanocement released Si and Ca ions continuously over the test period of 2 weeks; the Si release was unique in nanocement whereas the Ca release was in a similar range to that observed in CPC. The release of ions significantly stimulated the responses of cells studied (rMSCs and HUVECs). The viability and osteogenesis of rMSCs were significantly enhanced by the nanocement ionic extracts. Furthermore, the in vitro tubular networking of HUVECs was improved by the nanocement ionic extracts. The in vivo neo-blood vessel formation in CAM model was significantly higher by the nanocement implant when compared with the CPC counterpart, implying the Si ion release might play a significant role in pro-angiogenesis. Furthermore, the early bone forming response of the nanocement, based on the implantation in a rat calvarial bone defect, demonstrated a sign of osteoinductivity along with excellent osteocondution and bone matrix formation. Although more studies remain to confirm the potential of nanocement, some of the intriguing physico-chemical properties and the biological responses reported herein support the promise of the new 'nanopowder-based nanocement' for hard tissue repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Bone is a highly integrative and dynamic tissue of the human body. It is continually remodeled by bone cells such as osteoblasts, osteoclasts. When a fraction of a bone is damaged or deformed, stem cells and bone cells under the influence of several signaling pathways regulate bone regeneration at the particular locale. Effective therapies for bone defects can be met via bone tissue engineering which employs drug delivery systems with biomaterials to enhance cellular functions by acting on signaling pathways such as Wnt, BMP, TGF-β, and Notch. This review provides the current understanding of polymers/bioceramics/bioactive compounds as scaffolds in activation of signaling pathways for the formation of bone.
