Abstract
Among various biomaterials employed for bone repair, composites with good biocompatibility and osteogenic ability had received increasing attention from biomedical applications. In this study, we doped selenium (Se) into hydroxyapatite (Se-HA) by the precipitation method, and prepared different amounts of Se-HA-loaded poly (amino acid)/Se-HA (PAA/Se-HA) composites (0, 10 wt%, 20 wt%, 30 wt%) byin-situmelting polycondensation. The physical and chemical properties of PAA/Se-HA composites were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and their mechanical properties. XRD and FT-IR results showed that PAA/Se-HA composites contained characteristic peaks of PAA and Se-HA with amide linkage and HA structures. DSC and TGA results specified the PAA/Se-HA30 composite crystallization, melting, and maximum weight loss temperatures at 203.33 °C, 162.54 °C, and 468.92 °C, respectively, which implied good thermal stability. SEM results showed that Se-HA was uniformly dispersed in PAA. The mechanical properties of PAA/Se-HA30 composites included bending, compressive, and yield strengths at 83.07 ± 0.57, 106.56 ± 0.46, and 99.17 ± 1.11 MPa, respectively. The cellular responses of PAA/Se-HA compositesin vitrowere studied using bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) by cell counting kit-8 assay, and results showed that PAA/Se-HA30 composites significantly promoted the proliferation of BMSCs at the concentration of 2 mg ml-1. The alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) and alizarin red staining results showed that the introduction of Se-HA into PAA enhanced ALP activity and formation of calcium nodule. Western blotting and Real-time polymerase chain reaction results showed that the introduction of Se-HA into PAA could promoted the expression of osteogenic-related proteins and mRNA (integrin-binding sialoprotein, osteopontin, runt-related transcription factor 2 and Osterix) in BMSCs. A muscle defect at the back and a bone defect at the femoral condyle of New Zealand white rabbits were introduced for evaluating the enhancement of bone regeneration of PAA and PAA/Se-HA30 composites. The implantation of muscle tissue revealed good biocompatibility of PAA and PAA/Se-HA30 composites. The implantation of bone defect showed that PAA/Se-HA30 composites enhanced bone formation at the defect site (8 weeks), exhibiting good bone conductivity. Therefore, the PAA-based composite was a promising candidate material for bone tissue regeneration.

Jiang C, Zhu G, Liu Q. Current application and future perspectives of antimicrobial degradable bone substitutes for chronic osteomyelitis. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2024; 12:1375266.

Abstract
Chronic osteomyelitis remains a persistent challenge for the surgeons due to its refractory nature. Generally, treatment involves extensive debridement of necrotic bone, filling of dead space, adequate antimicrobial therapy, bone reconstruction, and rehabilitation. However, the optimal choice of bone substitute to manage the bone defect remains debatable. This paper reviewed the clinical evidence for antimicrobial biodegradable bone substitutes in the treatment of osteomyelitis in recent years. Indeed, this combination was proved to eradicate infection and facilitate bone reconstruction, which might reduce the cost and hospital stay. Handling was associated with increased risk of unwanted side effect to affect bone healing. The study provides some valuable insights into the clinical evaluation of treatment outcomes in the aspects of infection eradication, bone reconstruction, and complications caused by materials. However, achieving complete infection eradication and subsequently perfect bone reconstruction remains challenging in compromised conditions, hence advanced innovative bone substitutes are imperative. In this review, we mainly focus on the desired functional effects of advanced bone substitutes on infection eradication and bone reconstruction from the future perspective. Handling property was optimized to simplify surgery process. It is expected that this review will provide an important opportunity to enhance the understanding of the design and application of innovative biomaterials to synergistically eradicate infection and restore integrity and function of bone.

Bioact Mater 2024; 31:18-37. [PMID: 37593495 PMCID: PMC10432151 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.07.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2023] [Revised: 07/03/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 08/19/2023] Open
Abstract
The resection of malignant osteosarcoma often results in large segmental bone defects, and the residual cells can facilitate recurrence. Consequently, the treatment of osteosarcoma is a major challenge in clinical practice. The ideal goal of treatment for osteosarcoma is to eliminate it thoroughly, and repair the resultant bone defects as well as avoid bacterial infections. Herein, we fabricated a selenium/strontium/zinc-doped hydroxyapatite (Se/Sr/Zn-HA) powder by hydrothermal method, and then employed it with polycaprolactone (PCL) as ink to construct composite scaffolds through 3D printing, and finally introduced them in bone defect repair induced by malignant osteosarcoma. The resultant composite scaffolds integrated multiple functions involving anti-tumor, osteogenic, and antibacterial potentials, mainly attributed to the anti-tumor effects of SeO32-, osteogenic effects of Sr2+ and Zn2+, and antibacterial effects of SeO32- and Zn2+. In vitro studies confirmed that Se/Sr/Zn-HA leaching solution could induce apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells, differentiation of MSCs, and proliferation of MC3T3-E1 while showing excellent antibacterial properties. In vivo tests demonstrated that Se/Sr/Zn-HA could significantly suppress tumors after 8 days of injection, and the Se/Sr/Zn-HA-PCLs scaffold repaired femoral defects effectively after 3 months of implantation. Summarily, the Se/Sr/Zn-HA-PCLs composite scaffolds developed in this study were effective for tumor treatment, bone defect repair, and post-operative anti-infection, which provided a great potential to be a facile therapeutic material for osteosarcoma resection.

Abstract
In this systematic review, the antimicrobial effect of ion-substituted calcium phosphate biomaterials was quantitatively assessed. The literature was systematically searched up to the 6th of December 2021. Study selection and data extraction was performed in duplo by two independent reviewers with a modified version of the OHAT tool for risk of bias assessment. Any differences were resolved by consensus or by a referee. A mixed effects model was used to investigate the relation between the degree of ionic substitution and bacterial reduction. Of 1016 identified studies, 108 were included in the analysis. The methodological quality of included studies ranged from 6 to 16 out of 18 (average 11.4). Selenite, copper, zinc, rubidium, gadolinium, silver and samarium had a clear antimicrobial effect, with a log reduction in bacteria count of 0.23, 1.8, 2.1, 3.6, 5.8, 7.4 and 10 per atomic% of substitution, respectively. There was considerable between-study variation, which could partially be explained by differences in material formulation, study quality and microbial strain. Future research should focus on clinically relevant scenarios in vitro and the translation to in vivo prevention of PJI.

Abstract
Bone cancer is usually a metastatic disease, affecting people of all ages. Its effective therapy requires a targeted drug administration locally at the cancer site so that the surrounding healthy organs and tissues stay unharmed. Upon a thorough literature search, a tremendous number of published articles are reporting on development of calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) for the treatment of a variety of diseases, such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, osteomyelitis, and other musculoskeletal disorders. However, just a limited number of research employs CPCs specifically for bone cancer treatment. In this review article, we study the factors influencing the local drug release from CPCs and particularly focus on bone cancer therapy. Finally, we locate the deficiencies in the literature regarding this specific topic and propose which other perspectives should be considered and discussed in future articles.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic infectious and inflammatory disease of periodontal tissues estimated to affect 70 - 80 % of all adults. At the same time, periodontium, the site of periodontal pathologies, is an extraordinarily complex plexus of soft and hard tissues, the regeneration of which using even the most advanced forms of tissue engineering continues to be a challenge. Nanotechnologies, meanwhile, have provided exquisite tools for producing biomaterials and pharmaceutical formulations capable of elevating the efficacies of standard pharmacotherapies and surgical approaches to whole new levels. A bibliographic analysis provided here demonstrates a continuously increasing research output of studies on the use of nanotechnologies in the management of periodontal disease, even when they are normalized to the total output of studies on periodontitis. The great majority of biomaterials used to tackle periodontitis, including those that pioneered this interesting field, have been polymeric. In this article, a chronological review of polymeric nanotechnologies for the treatment of periodontitis is provided, focusing on the major conceptual innovations since the late 1990s, when the first nanostructures for the treatment of periodontal diseases were fabricated. In the opening sections, the etiology and pathogenesis of periodontitis and the anatomical and histological characteristics of the periodontium are being described, along with the general clinical manifestations of the disease and the standard means of its therapy. The most prospective chemistries in the design of polymers for these applications are also elaborated. It is concluded that the amount of innovation in this field is on the rise, despite the fact that most studies are focused on the refinement of already established paradigms in tissue engineering rather than on the development of revolutionary new concepts.

Abstract
Osseointegration of implants depends on several intertwined factors: osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and immunomodulation. Lately, novel reinforcements allowing faster bonding with osseous tissue have been explored intensively. In this study, we hypothesized the use of boron as a major multifunctional ion to confer versatility to calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (cHA) synthesized by a wet precipitation/microwave reflux method. By synthesis of boron-doped calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (BcHA), we expected to obtain an osteoimmunomodulatory and regenerative nanoreinforcement. BcHA was found to possess a pure HA phase, a greater surface area (66.41 m2/g, p = 0.028), and cumulative concentrations of Ca (207.87 ± 6.90 mg/mL, p < 0.001) and B (112.70 ± 11.79 mg/mL, p < 0.001) released in comparison to cHA. Osteogenic potential of BcHA was analyzed using human fetal osteoblasts. BcHA resulted in a drastic increase in the ALP activity (1.11 ± 0.11 mmol/gDNA·min, p < 0.001), biomineralization rate, and osteogenic gene expressions compared to cHA. BcHA angiogenic potential was investigated using human umbilical cord vein endothelial cells. Significantly, the highest VEGF-A release (1111.14 ± 87.82 in 4 h, p = 0.009) and angiogenic gene expressions were obtained for BcHA-treated samples. These samples were also observed to induce a more prominent and highly branched tube network. Finally, inflammatory and inflammasome responses toward BcHA were elucidated using human monocyte-derived macrophages differentiated from THP-1s. BcHA exhibited lower CAS-1 release (50.18 ± 5.52 μg/gDNA μg/gDNA) and higher IL-10 release (126.97 ± 15.05 μg/gDNA) than cHA. In addition, BcHA treatment led to increased expression of regenerative genes such as VEGF-A, RANKL, and BMP-2. In vitro results demonstrated that BcHA has tremendous osteogenic, angiogenic, and immunomodulatory potential to be employed as a "versatile-in-all-trades" modality in various bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
This study aimed to fabricate nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) grafted/non-grafted E-glass-fiber-based (nHA/EG) and E-glass fiber (EG) orthodontic retainers and to compare their properties with commercially available retainers. Stainless-steel (SS) retainers and everStick Ortho (EST) were used as control groups. The retainers were evaluated with Raman spectroscopy and bonded to bovine teeth. The samples were fatigued under cyclic loading (120,000 cycles) followed by static load testing. The failure behavior was evaluated under an optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. The strain growth on the orthodontic retainers was assessed (48h and 168h) by an adhesion test using Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. The characteristic peaks of resin and glass fibers were observed, and the debonding force results showed a significant difference among all of the groups. SS retainers showed the highest bonding force, whereas nHA/EG retainers showed a non-significant difference from EG and EST retainers. SS retainers’ failure mode occurred mainly at the retainer–composite interface, while breakage occurred in glass-fiber-based retainers. The strains’ adhesion to EST and EG was reduced with time. However, it was increased with nHA/EG. Fabrication of nHA/EG retainers was successfully achieved and showed better debonding force compared to other glass-fiber-based groups, whereas non-linear behavior was observed for the strains’ adhesion.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles were isolated from a biowaste, buffalo bone, via the thermal decomposition method. The resulting white powdered material was characterized by Fourier Transformed Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis. The FTIR spectra confirmed that a heat treatment of the bone powder at the temperature at or above 1223 K removed the organic moieties leading to the formation of a pure inorganic biomineral. The XRD analyses showed that the obtained material was nanocrystalline HAp (nano-HAp) with an average grain diameter of 25 nm, while their rod-shaped particles with their tightly agglomerated morphology were confirmed by the SEM analysis. Besides Calcium (Ca), Phosphorous (P), and Oxygen (O), trace amounts of Aluminum (Al), Magnesium (Mg), Copper (Cu), Zirconium (Zr) and Carbon (C) were also found by EDX analysis. Antibacterial activity of nano-HAp against six standard isolates was investigated by the agar well diffusion method and found to be more susceptible to Acinetobacter baumannii while other standard strains such as Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Staphylococcus aureus showed lesser susceptibility and no antibacterial activity was noticed against Salmonella typhi and Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with the analysed concentration of nano-HAp suggesting its potential application in biomedical fields.

Abstract
Ionic substitutions are a promising strategy to enhance the biological performance of calcium phosphates (CaP) and composite materials for bone tissue engineering applications. However, systematic studies have not been performed on multi-substituted organic/inorganic scaffolds. In this work, highly porous composite scaffolds based on CaPs substituted with Sr2+, Mg2+, Zn2+ and SeO32- ions, and chitosan have been prepared by freeze-gelation technique. The scaffolds have shown highly porous structure, with very well interconnected pores and homogeneously dispersed CaPs, and high stability during 28 days in the degradation medium. Osteogenic potential of human mesenchymal stem cells seeded on scaffolds has been determined by histological, immunohistochemical and RT-qPCR analysis of cultured cells in static and dynamic conditions. Results indicated that ionic substitutions have a beneficial effect on cells and tissues. The scaffolds with multi-substituted CaPs have shown increased expression of osteogenesis related markers and increased phosphate deposits, compared to the scaffolds with non-substituted CaPs.

Abstract
In this work, 3D porous granules based on Zn and Se-containing calcium phosphates (CaPs) were fabricated using a droplet-extrusion technique. The composite beads varied in composition and contained two different natural polymers: sodium alginate (SA) and gelatin (GEL). To analyse and compare their physicochemical properties, such as porosity and morphology, different techniques were applied, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), sorption of N2 and mercury porosimetry. Prior to the fabrication of the granules, the properties of CaPs materials, (the bioceramic base of the beads), selenium (IV)-substituted hydroxyapatite (Se-HA) and zinc-substituted dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (Zn-DCPD), were also investigated. The results of cell viability assessment showed that Se-HA powder was non-toxic to human osteoblasts (hFOB 1.19) and simultaneously exhibited high toxicity to tumour cells (Saos-2). Once the cytotoxicity assay was completed, Se-HA and Zn-DCPD were used to prepare 3D materials. The prepared porous granules were used as matrices to deliver simvastatin to bones. Simvastatin was applied in either the lipophilic form or hydrophilic form. The release kinetics of simvastatin from granules of different composition was then assessed and compared.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to prepare a biomimetic selenium substituted calcium phosphate system for potential application in osteosarcoma therapy. Calcium phosphate (CaP) systems substituted with selenite ions were prepared by the wet precipitation method, using biogenic CaCO3 (derived from cuttlefish bone), CO(NH2)2-H3PO4, and Na2SeO3·5H2O as reagents. Starting reaction mixtures were prepared based on the formula for selenite-substituted hydroxyapatite, Ca10(PO4)6-x(SeO3)x(OH)2, with Ca/(P + Se) molar ratio of 1.67 and Se/(P + Se) molar ratio of: 0, 0.01, 0.05, and 0.10, respectively. The prepared CaP powders were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction analysis and Rietveld refinement studies. Phase transformation and ion release were analyzed during 7 days of incubation in simulated body fluid at 37 °C. The metabolic activity of healthy and osteosarcoma cell lines was assessed by cell cytotoxicity and viability test. The as-prepared powders were composed of calcium-deficient carbonated hydroxyapatite (HAp), octacalcium phosphate (OCP), and amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP). Along with the selenite substitution, the presence of Sr2+, Na+, and Mg2+ was detected as a result of using cuttlefish bone as a precursor for Ca2+ ions. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry analysis showed that the Se/(P + Se) molar ratios of selenite substituted powders are lower than the nominal ratios. Heat treated powders were composed of HAp, α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). Doping CaP structure with selenite ions improves the thermal stability of HAp. The powder with the Se/(P + Se) molar ratio of 0.007 showed selective toxicity to cancer cells.

Hydroxyapatite nanophases augmented with selenium and manganese ions for bone regeneration: Physiochemical, microstructural and biological characterization. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2021; 126:112149.

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
In this study, as a measure to enhance the antimicrobial activity of biomaterials, the selenium ions have been substituted into hydroxyapatite (HA) at different concentration levels. To balance the potential cytotoxic effects of selenite ions (SeO32-) in HA, strontium (Sr2+) was co-substituted at the same concentration. Selenium and strontium-substituted hydroxyapatites (Se-Sr-HA) at equal molar ratios of x Se/(Se + P) and x Sr/(Sr + Ca) at (x = 0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2) were synthesized via the wet precipitation route and sintered at 900 °C. The effect of the two-ion concentration on morphology, surface charge, composition, antibacterial ability, and cell viability were studied. X-ray diffraction verified the phase purity and confirmed the substitution of selenium and strontium ions. Acellular in vitro bioactivity tests revealed that Se-Sr-HA was highly bioactive compared to pure HA. Se-Sr-HA samples showed excellent antibacterial activity against both Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus carnosus) bacterial strains. In vitro cell-material interaction, using human osteosarcoma cells MG-63 studied by WST-8 assay, showed that Se-HA has a cytotoxic effect; however, the co-substitution of strontium in Se-HA offsets the negative impact of selenium and enhanced the biological properties of HA. Hence, the prepared samples are a suitable choice for antibacterial coatings and bone filler applications.

Abstract
Due to the threat posed by the rapid growth in the resistance of microbial species to antibiotics, there is an urgent need to develop novel materials for biomedical applications capable of providing antibacterial properties without the use of such drugs. Bone healing represents one of the applications with the highest risk of postoperative infections, with potential serious complications in case of bacterial contaminations. Therefore, tissue engineering approaches aiming at the regeneration of bone tissue should be based on the use of materials possessing antibacterial properties alongside with biological and functional characteristics. In this study, we investigated the combination of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) with a novel antimicrobial hydroxyapatite (HA) containing selenium and strontium. Strontium was chosen for its well-known osteoinductive properties, while selenium is an emerging element investigated for its multi-functional activity as an antimicrobial and anticancer agent. Successful incorporation of such ions in the HA structure was obtained. Antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus 6538P and Escherichia coli 8739 was confirmed for co-substituted HA in the powder form. Polymer-matrix composites based on two types of PHAs, P(3HB) and P(3HO-co-3HD-co-3HDD), were prepared by the incorporation of the developed antibacterial HA. An in-depth characterization of the composite materials was conducted to evaluate the effect of the filler on the physicochemical, thermal, and mechanical properties of the films. In vitro antibacterial testing showed that the composite samples induce a high reduction of the number of S. aureus 6538P and E. coli 8739 bacterial cells cultured on the surface of the materials. The films are also capable of releasing active ions which inhibited the growth of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Abstract
Biomedical implants are the need of this era due to the increase in number of accidents and follow-up surgeries. Different types of bone diseases such as osteoarthritis, osteomalacia, bone cancer, etc., are increasing globally. Mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs) are used in biomedical devices due to their osteointegration and bioactive properties. In this study, silver (Ag)- and strontium (Sr)-doped mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (Ag-Sr MBGNs) were prepared by a modified Stöber process. In this method, Ag+ and Sr2+ were co-substituted in pure MBGNs to harvest the antibacterial properties of Ag ions, as well as pro-osteogenic potential of Sr2 ions. The effect of the two-ion concentration on morphology, surface charge, composition, antibacterial ability, and in-vitro bioactivity was studied. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed the doping of Sr and Ag in MBGNs. SEM and EDX analysis confirmed the spherical morphology and typical composition of MBGNs, respectively. The Ag-Sr MBGNs showed a strong antibacterial effect against Staphylococcus carnosus and Escherichia coli bacteria determined via turbidity and disc diffusion method. Moreover, the synthesized Ag-Sr MBGNs develop apatite-like crystals upon immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF), which suggested that the addition of Sr improved in vitro bioactivity. The Ag-Sr MBGNs synthesized in this study can be used for the preparation of scaffolds or as a filler material in the composite coatings for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
In the present study we have studied the incorporation and release of selenite ions (SeO32-) in hydroxyapatite nanoparticles for the treatment of bone tumors. Two types of selenium-doped hydroxyapatite (HASe) nanoparticles (NPs) with a nominal Se/(P + Se) molar ratio ranging from 0.01 up to 0.40 have been synthesized by a new and mild wet method. The two series of samples were thoroughly characterized and resulted to be slightly different in chemical composition, but they had similar properties in terms of morphology and degree of crystallinity. Selenium release from HASe was investigated under neutral and acidic conditions to simulate both healthy tissues and the low-pH environment surrounding a tumor mass, respectively. The comparison of the release profiles at two pH values clearly showed the possibility of modulating the Se release by simply changing the amount of Se in the HASe particles. The correlation between the physicochemical properties of HASe and their dissolution as a function of pH has been also investigated to facilitate future application of the NPs as chemotherapeutic adjuvant agents. Finally, the cytotoxic activity of HASe was evaluated using prostate (PC3) and breast (MDA-MB-231) cancer cells as well as healthy human bone marrow stem cells (hBMSc). HASe NPs exerted a good cytocompatibility at low concentration of Se but, with high Se doping concentration, they displayed strong cytotoxicity.

Abstract
The use of ions as therapeutic agents has the potential to minimize the use of small-molecule drugs and biologics for the same purpose, thus providing a potentially more economic and less adverse means of treating, ameliorating or preventing a number of diseases. Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is a solid compound capable of accommodating foreign ions with a broad range of sizes and charges and its properties can dramatically change with the incorporation of these ionic additives. While most ionic substitutes in HAp have been monatomic cations, their lesser atomic weight, higher diffusivity, chaotropy and a lesser residence time on surfaces theoretically makes them prone to exert a lesser influence on the material/cell interaction than the more kosmotropic oxyanions. Selenite ion as an anionic substitution in HAp was explored in this study for its ability to affect the short-range and the long-range crystalline symmetry and solubility as well as for its ability to affect the osteoclast activity. We combined microstructural, crystallographic and spectroscopic analyses with quantum mechanical calculations to understand the structural effects of doping HAp with selenite. Integration of selenite ions into the crystal structure of HAp elongated the crystals along the c-axis, but isotropically lowered the crystallinity. It also increased the roughness of the material in direct proportion with the content of the selenite dopant, thus having a potentially positive effect on cell adhesion and integration with the host tissue. Selenite in total acted as a crystal structure breaker, but was also able to bring about symmetry at the local and global scales within specific concentration windows, indicating a variety of often mutually antagonistic crystallographic effects that it can induce in a concentration-dependent manner. Experimental determination of the lattice strain coupled with ab initio calculations on three different forms of carbonated HAp (A-type, B-type, AB-type) demonstrated that selenite ions initially substitute carbonates in the crystal structure of carbonated HAp, before substituting phosphates at higher concentrations. The most energetically favored selenite-doped HAp is of AB-type, followed by the B-type and only then by the A-type. This order of stability was entailed by the variation in the geometry and orientation of both the selenite ion and its neighboring phosphates and/or carbonates. The incorporation of selenite in different types of carbonated HAp also caused variations of different thermodynamic parameters, including entropy, enthalpy, heat capacity, and the Gibbs free energy. Solubility of HAp accommodating 1.2 wt% of selenite was 2.5 times higher than that of undoped HAp and the ensuing release of the selenite ion was directly responsible for inhibiting RAW264.7 osteoclasts. Dose-response curves demonstrated that the inhibition of osteoclasts was directly proportional to the concentration of selenite-doped HAp and to the selenite content in it. Meanwhile, selenite-doped HAp had a significantly less adverse effect on osteoblastic K7M2 and MC3T3-E1 cells than on RAW264.7 osteoclasts. The therapeutically promising osteoblast vs. osteoclast selectivity of inhibition was absent when the cells were challenged with undoped HAp, indicating that it is caused by selenite ions in HAp rather than by HAp alone. It is concluded that like three oxygens building the selenite pyramid, the coupling of (1) experimental materials science, (2) quantum mechanical modeling and (3) biological assaying is a triad from which a deeper understanding of ion-doped HAp and other biomaterials can emanate.

Abstract
Selenium-doped nanostructure has been considered as an attractive approach to enhance the antibacterial activity of calcium phosphate (CaP) materials in diverse medical applications. In this study, the selenium-doped biphasic calcium phosphate nanoparticles (SeB-NPs) were first synthesized. Then, silver was in situ incorporated into SeB-NPs to obtain nanostructured composite nanoparticles (AgSeB-NPs). Both SeB-NPs and AgSeB-NPs were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Raman spectra. The results confirmed that the SeO32- was doped at the PO43- position and silver nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of SeB-NPs. Next, Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) analysis displayed that the prepared AgSeB-NPs had a needle-cluster-like morphology. CCK-8 analysis revealed SeB-NPs and AgSeB-NPs had good cytocompatibility with osteoblasts. The antibacterial activity of the prepared AgSeB-NPs was confirmed by using Gram-negative E. coli and Gram-positive S. aureus. The above results manifested the significance of the final AgSeB-NPs for biomedical applications.

Abstract
One of the most common prophylactic techniques to solve prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is incorporation of antibiotics into acrylic bone cement to prevent bacterial colonization and proliferation by providing local antibiotic delivery directly at the implant site. Further, there has been a significant concern over the efficacy of commonly used antibiotics within bone cement due to the rise in multi-drug resistant (MDR) microorganisms. Selenium is an essential trace element that has multiple beneficial effects for human health and its chemotherapeutic action is well known. It was reported that nanostructured selenium enhanced bone cell adhesion and has an increased osteoblast function. In this context, we used the selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) to improve antibacterial and antioxidant properties of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and tri calcium phosphate (TCP)-based bone cements, and to reduce of the infection risk caused by orthopedic implants. As another novelty of this study, we proposed phosphatidylcholine (PC) as a unique and natural stabilizer in the synthesis of selenium nanoparticles. After the structural analysis of the prepared bone cements was performed, in vitro osteointegration and antibacterial efficiency were tested using MC3T-E1 (mouse osteoblastic cell line) and SaOS-2 (human primary osteogenic sarcoma) cell lines, and S. aureus (Gram positive) and E.coli (Gram negative) strains, respectively. More importantly, PC-SeNPs-reinforced bone cements exhibited significant effect against E. coli, compared to S. aureus and a dose-dependent antibacterial activity against both bacterial strains tested. Meanwhile, these bone cements induced the apoptosis of SaOS-2 through increased reactive oxygen species without negatively influencing the viability of the healthy cell line. Furthermore, the obtained confocal images revealed that PC-SeNPs (103.7 ± 0.56 nm) altered the cytoskeletal structure of SaOS-2 owing to SeNPs-induced apoptosis, when MC3T3-E1 cells showed a typical spindle-shaped morphology. Taken together, these results highlighted the potential of PC-SeNPs-doped bone cements as an effective graft material in bone applications.

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
Substituting small molecule drugs with abundant and easily affordable ions may have positive effects on the way countless disease treatments are approached. The interest in strontium cation in bone therapies soared in the wake of the success of strontium ranelate in the treatment of osteoporosis. A new method for producing thin strontium-containing hydroxyapatite (Sr-HA, Ca9Sr(PO4)6(OH)2) films as coatings that render bioinert titanium implant bioactive is reported here. The method is based on the combination of a mechanochemical synthesis of Sr-HA targets and their deposition in form of thin films on top of titanium with the use of laser ablation at low pressure. The films were 1-2 μm in thickness and their formation was studied at different temperatures, including 25, 300, and 500 °C. Highly crystalline Sr-HA target transformed during pulsed laser deposition to a fully amorphous film, whose degree of long-range order recovered with temperature. Particle edges became somewhat sharper and surface roughness moderately increased with temperature, but the (Ca+Sr)/P atomic ratio, which increased 1.5 times during the film formation, remained approximately constant at different temperatures. Despite the mostly amorphous structure of the coatings, their affinity for capturing atmospheric carbon dioxide and accommodating it as carbonate ions that replace both phosphates and hydroxyls of HA was confirmed in an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis. As the film deposition temperature increased, the lattice voids got reduced in concentration and the structure gradually "closed," becoming more compact and entailing a linear increase in microhardness with temperature, by 0.03 GPa/°C for the entire 25-500 °C range. Biocompatibility and bioactivity of Sr-HA thin films deposited on titanium were confirmed in an interaction with dental pulp stem cells, suggesting that these coatings, regardless of the processing temperature, may be viable candidates for the surface components of metallic bone implants.

Abstract
The invasive spreading of residual osteosarcoma cells becomes a serious threat to human health, urgently needing new bone regenerative biomaterials for orthopedic therapy. Thus, in this work, selenite-substituted hydroxyapatite (SeHA) nanoparticles were prepared for both inhibiting the recurrence of the tumor and accelerating the regenerative repair of bone defect. Physicochemical characterization showed these synthetic nanoparticles were spherical poly-crystals with the shape of snowflakes. Such structure benefited them to inhibit the cellular viability of osteosarcoma cells by about (58.90 ± 14.37)% during 24 h co-culturing. The expression level of cell growth-related genes such as PTEN, MMP-9, Cyclin D1, Cyclin A2, Annexin A2 and CDC2 decreased. Bisulfite Sequence PCR of PTEN gene exhibited about (22.40 ± 5.39)%, (45.91 ± 6.36)% and (25.90 ± 5.36)% promoter methylation in control, HA and SeHA group. Animal experiment also proved the similar effects. Almost no recurrence were observed in SeHA group. Oppositely, the slowly recurrent growth of the remnant tumor appeared in purely surgical group. The overall survival and toxicity analysis showed that, in the usage dose of 0-0.1 g, the SeHA-0.01 exhibited higher inhibitory recurrence and metastasis potentials, lower renal toxicity and better anti-inflammation function. Immunohistochemistry stain showed the reduced expression of PTEN, MMP-9, Ki-67 and Annexin A2, but slightly increased expression of DNMT1 and BMP-2. Compared the methylation status of PTEN gene in each group, it was confirming that SeHA nanoparticles hardly possessed the de-methylation effect, but the pure HA strikingly increased the methylation level of such gene. It seemed the dopant selenite ions possessed de-methylation effect onto PTEN gene. Therefore, from the viewpoint of inhibiting metastatic potentials, the SeHA-0.01 might be a feasible biomaterial to inhibit the relapse of the tumor post-surgery.

Abstract
Recently, a large spectrum of biomaterials emerged, with emphasis on various pure, blended, or doped calcium phosphates (CaPs). Although basic cytocompatibility testing protocols are referred by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 10993 (parts 1-22), rigorous in vitro testing using cutting-edge technologies should be carried out in order to fully understand the behavior of various biomaterials (whether in bulk or low-dimensional object form) and to better gauge their outcome when implanted. In this review, current molecular techniques are assessed for the in-depth characterization of angiogenic potential, osteogenic capability, and the modulation of oxidative stress and inflammation properties of CaPs and their cation- and/or anion-substituted derivatives. Using such techniques, mechanisms of action of these compounds can be deciphered, highlighting the signaling pathway activation, cross-talk, and modulation by microRNA expression, which in turn can safely pave the road toward a better filtering of the truly functional, application-ready innovative therapeutic bioceramic-based solutions.

Abstract
Selenium is a trace element essential to humans and forms complexes with proteins, which exert physiological functions in the body. In vitro studies suggested that selenium possesses anticancer effects and may be effective against osteosarcoma. This review aims to summarise current evidence on the anticancer activity of inorganic and organic selenium on osteosarcoma. Cellular studies revealed that inorganic and organic selenium shows cytotoxicity, anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects on various osteosarcoma cell lines. These actions may be mediated by oxidative stress induced by selenium compounds, leading to the activation of p53, proapoptotic proteins and caspases. Inorganic selenium is selective towards cancer cells, but can cause non-selective cell death at a high dose. This condition challenges the controlled release of selenium from biomaterials. Selenium treatment in animals inoculated with osteosarcoma reduced the tumour size, but did not eliminate the incidence of osteosarcoma. Only one study investigated the relationship between selenium and osteosarcoma in humans, but the results were inconclusive. In summary, although selenium may exert anticancer properties on osteosarcoma in experimental model systems, its effects in humans require further investigation.

Abstract
In this study, a novel biomaterial, i.e., brushite containing 0.67 wt% of selenium (Se-Bru) was synthesized via a wet precipitation method. Pure, unsubstituted brushite (Bru) was synthesized via the same method and used as a reference material. Different techniques of instrumental analysis were applied to investigate and compare physicochemical properties of both materials. Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy confirmed the chemical identity of both materials. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) was used to study the morphology and indicated that both samples (Bru and Se-Bru) consisted of plate-like microcrystals. Powder X-ray Diffraction (PXRD) showed that Bru, as well as Se-Bru were crystallographically homogenous. What is more, the data obtained from PXRD studies revealed that the substitution of selenite ions into the crystal structure of the material had clearly affected its lattice parameters. The incorporation of selenium was also confirmed by solid-state ¹H→31P CP MAS kinetics experiments. Additionally, studies on the release kinetics of the elements forming Se-Bru and preliminary cytotoxicity tests were conducted. This preliminary research will favor a better understanding of ionic substitution in calcium phosphates and may be a starting point for the development of selenium-doped brushite cements for potential use in bone tissue impairments treatment.

Abstract
Composite, multifunctional fine particles are likely to be at the frontier of materials science in the foreseeable future. Here we present a submicron composite particle that mimics the stratified structure of the Earth by having a zero-valent iron core, a silicate/silicide mantle, and a thin carbonaceous crust resembling the biosphere and its biotic deposits. Particles were formulated in a stable colloidal form and made to interact with various types of healthy and cancer cells in vitro. A selective anticancer activity was observed, promising from the point of view of the intended use of the particles for tumor targeting across the blood–brain barrier. As an extension of the idea underlying the fabrication of a particle mimicking the planet Earth, we propose a new field of mimetics within materials science: astromimetics. The astromimetic approach in the context of materials science consists of the design of particles after the structure of celestial bodies. With Earth being the most chemically diverse and fertile out of all the astral bodies known, it is anticipated that the great majority of astromimetic material models will fall in the domain of geo-inspired ones.
