BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2024; 161:213892. [PMID: 38795472 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2024.213892] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) stands as an essential modality for craniomaxillofacial bone defect repair, yet challenges like mechanical weakness, inappropriate degradability, limited bioactivity, and intricate manufacturing of GBR membranes hindered the clinical efficacy. Herein, we developed a Janus bacterial cellulose(BC)/MXene membrane through a facile vacuum filtration and etching strategy. This Janus membrane displayed an asymmetric bilayer structure with interfacial compatibility, where the dense layer impeded cell invasion and the porous layer maintained stable space for osteogenesis. Incorporating BC with Ti3C2Tx MXene significantly enhanced the mechanical robustness and flexibility of the material, enabling clinical operability and lasting GBR membrane supports. It also contributed to a suitable biodegradation rate, which aligned with the long-term bone repair period. After demonstrating the desirable biocompatibility, barrier role, and osteogenic capability in vitro, the membrane's regenerative potential was also confirmed in a rat cranial defect model. The excellent bone repair performance could be attributed to the osteogenic capability of MXene nanosheets, the morphological cues of the porous layer, as well as the long-lasting, stable regeneration space provided by the GBR membrane. Thus, our work presented a facile, robust, long-lasting, and biodegradable BC/MXene GBR membrane, offering a practical solution to craniomaxillofacial bone defect repair.

Abstract
The goal of this review is to present a wide range of hybrid formulations and composites containing calcium orthophosphates (abbreviated as CaPO4) that are suitable for use in biomedical applications and currently on the market. The bioactive, biocompatible, and osteoconductive properties of various CaPO4-based formulations make them valuable in the rapidly developing field of biomedical research, both in vitro and in vivo. Due to the brittleness of CaPO4, it is essential to combine the desired osteologic properties of ceramic CaPO4 with those of other compounds to create novel, multifunctional bone graft biomaterials. Consequently, this analysis offers a thorough overview of the hybrid formulations and CaPO4-based composites that are currently known. To do this, a comprehensive search of the literature on the subject was carried out in all significant databases to extract pertinent papers. There have been many formulations found with different material compositions, production methods, structural and bioactive features, and in vitro and in vivo properties. When these formulations contain additional biofunctional ingredients, such as drugs, proteins, enzymes, or antibacterial agents, they offer improved biomedical applications. Moreover, a lot of these formulations allow cell loading and promote the development of smart formulations based on CaPO4. This evaluation also discusses basic problems and scientific difficulties that call for more investigation and advancements. It also indicates perspectives for the future.

Abstract
Due to limitations of biological and alloplastic grafts, regenerative engineering has emerged as a promising alternative to treat bone defects. Bioactive polymeric scaffolds are an integral part of such an approach. Bioactivity importantly induces hydroxyapatite mineralization that promotes osteoinductivity and osseointegration with surrounding bone tissue. Strategies to confer bioactivity to polymeric scaffolds utilize bioceramic fillers, coatings and surface treatments, and additives. These approaches can also favorably impact mechanical and degradation properties. A variety of fabrication methods are utilized to prepare scaffolds with requisite morphological features. The bioactivity of scaffolds may be evaluated with a broad set of techniques, including in vitro (acellular and cellular) and in vivo methods. Herein, we highlight contemporary and emerging approaches to prepare and assess scaffold bioactivity, as well as existing challenges.

Abstract
The skin is the largest organ and a crucial barrier for protection against various intrinsic and extrinsic factors. As we age, the skin's components become more vulnerable to damage, forming wrinkles. Among different procedures, hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel has been extensively utilized for skin regeneration and reducing wrinkles. However, it has limitations like low retention and weak mechanical properties. In this study, we suggested the poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) microparticles containing alkaline magnesium hydroxide and nitric oxide-generating zinc oxide and rejuvenative hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels including these functional microparticles and asiaticoside, creating a novel delivery system for skin rejuvenation and regeneration. The fabricated rejuvenative hydrogels have exhibited enhanced biocompatibility, pH neutralization, reactive oxygen species scavenging, collagen biosynthesis, and angiogenesis capabilities in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, an excellent volume retention ability was demonstrated due to the numerous hydrogen bonds that formed between hyaluronic acid and asiaticoside. Overall, our advanced injectable hydrogel containing functional microparticles, with controlled release of bioactive molecules, has a significant potential for enhancing the regeneration and rejuvenation of the skin.

Dispersant and Protective Roles of Amphiphilic Poly(ethylene phosphate) Block Copolymers in Polyester/Bone Mineral Composites. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:11175.

Abstract
Composites of synthetic bone mineral substitutes (BMS) and biodegradable polyesters are of particular interest for bone surgery and orthopedics. Manufacturing of composite scaffolds commonly uses mixing of the BMS with polymer melts. Melt processing requires a high homogeneity of the mixing, and is complicated by BMS-promoted thermal degradation of polymers. In our work, poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) composites reinforced by commercial β-tricalcium phosphate (βTCP) or synthesized carbonated hydroxyapatite with hexagonal and plate-like crystallite shapes (hCAp and pCAp, respectively) were fabricated using injection molding. pCAp-based composites showed advanced mechanical and thermal characteristics, and the best set of mechanical characteristics was observed for the PLLA-based composite containing 25 wt% of pCAp. To achieve compatibility of polyesters and pCAp, reactive block copolymers of PLLA or PCL with poly(tert-butyl ethylene phosphate) (C1 and C2, respectively) were introduced to the composite. The formation of a polyester-b-poly(ethylene phosphoric acid) (PEPA) compatibilizer during composite preparation, followed by chemical binding of PEPA with pCAp, have been proved experimentally. The presence of 5 wt% of the compatibilizer provided deeper homogenization of the composite, resulting in a marked increase in strength and moduli as well as a more pronounced nucleation effect during isothermal crystallization. The use of C1 increased the thermal stability of the PLLA-based composite, containing 25 wt% of pCAp. In view of positive impacts of polyester-b-PEPA on composite homogeneity, mechanical characteristics, and thermal stability, polyester-b-PEPA will find application in the further development of composite materials for bone surgery and orthopedics.

Abstract
The application of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) in tissue engineering is limited due to its brittleness and uncontrollable degradation rate. In this study, the flexible p-dioxanone (PDO) and highly reactive glycolide (GA) units were introduced into PLLA segments by chemical modification to prepare poly(l-lactide-ran-p-dioxanone-ran-glycolide) (PLPG) copolymers. The copolymers were then processed into the PLPG scaffold by a 3D printing technology. The physicochemical properties of the PLPG copolymers were studied by NMR, DSC, XRD, GPC, and SEM. Furthermore, the mechanical properties, degradation properties, and biocompatibility of the PLPG scaffolds were also studied. The results showed that introducing PDO and GA units disrupted the regularity of PLLA, decreasing the crystallinity of the PLPG copolymers. However, introducing PDO and GA units could effectively improve the mechanical and degradation properties of the PLLA scaffolds. In vitro cell culture experiments indicated that the PLPG scaffolds supported proliferation, growth, and differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. The PLPG scaffolds reported herein, with controllable degradation rates and mechanical performance, may find applications in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
This review paper analyzes the development of advanced class polylactide (PLA) materials through a combination of stereocomplexation and nanocomposites approaches. The similarities in these approaches provide the opportunity to generate an advanced stereocomplex PLA nanocomposite (stereo-nano PLA) material with various beneficial properties. As a potential "green" polymer with tunable characteristics (e.g., modifiable molecular structure and organic-inorganic miscibility), stereo-nano PLA could be used for various advanced applications. The molecular structure modification of PLA homopolymers and nanoparticles in stereo-nano PLA materials enables us to encounter stereocomplexation and nanocomposites constraints. The hydrogen bonding of D- and L-lactide fragments aids in the formation of stereococomplex crystallites, while the hetero-nucleation capabilities of nanofillers result in a synergism that improves the physical, thermal, and mechanical properties of materials, including stereocomplex memory (melt stability) and nanoparticle dispersion. The special properties of selected nanoparticles also allow the production of stereo-nano PLA materials with distinctive characteristics, such as electrical conductivity, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial properties. The D- and L-lactide chains in PLA copolymers provide self-assembly capabilities to form stable nanocarrier micelles for encapsulating nanoparticles. This development of advanced stereo-nano PLA with biodegradability, biocompatibility, and tunability properties shows potential for use in wider and advanced applications as a high-performance material, in engineering field, electronic, medical device, biomedical, diagnosis, and therapeutic applications.

[PMID: 36826882 PMCID: PMC9961440 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14020083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2022] [Revised: 01/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Different compositions of biodegradable materials are being investigated to successfully replace non-resorbable ones in bone tissue regeneration in dental surgery. The systematic review tried to address the question, "Can biodegradable polymers act as a replacement for conventional materials in dental surgery procedures?" (2) Methods: An electronic search of the PubMed and Scopus databases was conducted in October 2022. The following keywords were used: (lactide polymers) and (hydroxyapatite or fluorapatite) and (dentistry) and (regeneration). Initially, 59 studies were found. Forty-one studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. (3) Results: These usually improved the properties and induced osteogenesis, tissue mineralisation and bone regeneration by inducing osteoblast proliferation. Five studies showed higher induction of osteogenesis in the case of biomaterials, UV-HAp/PLLA, ALBO-OS, bioresorbable raw particulate hydroxyapatite/poly-L-lactide and PLGA/Hap, compared to conventional materials such as titanium. Four studies confirmed improvement in tissue mineralisation with the usage of biomaterials: hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid (HA/PLA) loaded with dog's dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), Coll/HAp/PLCL, PDLLA/VACNT-O:nHAp, incorporation of hydroxyapatite and simvastatin. Three studies showed an acceleration in proliferation of osteoblasts for the use of biomaterials with additional factors such as collagen and UV light. (4) Conclusions: Lactide polymers present higher osteointegration and cell proliferation rate than the materials compared. They are superior to non-biodegradable materials in terms of the biocompability, bone remodelling and healing time tests. Moreover, because there is no need of reoperation, as the material automatically degrades, the chance of scars and skin sclerosis is lower. However, more studies involving greater numbers of biomaterial types and mixes need to be performed in order to find a perfect biodegradable material.

Abstract
Tumor recurrence and bacterial infection are common problems during bone repair and reconstruction after bone tumor surgery. In this study, silver-anchored MoS2 nanosheets (Ag@PMoS2) were synthesized by in situ reduction, then a composite polymer scaffold (Ag@PMoS2/PGA) with sustained antitumor and antibacterial activity was successfully constructed by selective laser sintering technique. In the Ag@PMoS2 nanostructures, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were sandwiched between adjacent MoS2 nanosheets (MoS2 NSs), which restrained the restacking of the MoS2 NSs. In addition, the MoS2 NSs acted as steric hindrance layers, which prevented the aggregation of Ag NPs. More importantly, MoS2 NSs can provide a barrier layer for Ag NPs, hindering Ag NPs from reacting with the external solution to prevent its quick release. The results showed that Ag@PMoS2/PGA scaffolds have stronger photothermal effect and antitumor function. Meanwhile, the Ag@PMoS2/PGA scaffolds also demonstrated slow control of silver ion (Ag+) release and more efficient long-term antibacterial ability. Besides, composite scaffolds have been proved to kill the MG-63 cells by inducing apoptosis and inhibit bacterial proliferation by upregulating the level of bacterial reactive oxygen species. This kind of novel bifunctional implants with antitumor and antibacterial properties provides better choice for the artificial bone transplantation after primary bone tumor resection.

Abstract
Poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA), as a biodegradable polymer, has attracted attention for use as a biomaterial. In order to apply PLLA as a cardiovascular stent, stronger mechanical properties and anti-inflammatory effects against acidic by-products are required. In this study, PLLA/PDLA stereocomplex microparticles (SC) were developed and surface-modified magnesium hydroxide (MH) nanoparticles with oligolactide were combined with these PLLA composites. The SC improved the mechanical properties of the PLLA composites through the formation of stereocomplex structures. The surface-modified MH nanoparticles showed enhanced mechanical properties due to the stereocomplex structures formed by PLLA chains and inhibited inflammatory responses by pH neutralization as a result of MH. Additionally, the MH nanoparticles containing PLLA composites had antibacterial effects and increased the viability of human vascular endothelial cells. This technology is expected to have great potential in the development of PLLA composite materials for the production of various medical devices, such as cardiovascular stents.

Abstract
Bacterial infection with high morbidity (>30%) seriously affects the defect's healing after bone transplantation. To this end, chemotherapy and photothermal therapy have been utilized for antibacterial treatment owing to their high selectivity and minimal toxicity. However, they also face several dilemmas. For example, bacterial biofilms prevented the penetration of antibacterial agents and local temperatures (over 70 °C) caused by the photothermal therapy damaged normal tissue. Herein, a co-dispersion nanosystem with chemo-photothermal function was constructed via the in situ growth of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) on graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets. In this nanosystem, GO generates a local temperature (∼50 °C) to increase the permeability of a bacterial biofilm under near-infrared laser irradiation. Then, Zn ions released by ZIF-8 seized this chance to react with the bacterial membrane and inactivate it, thus realizing efficient sterilization in a low-temperature environment. This antibacterial system was incorporated into a poly-l-lactic acid scaffold for bone repair. Results showed that the scaffold showed a high antibacterial rate of 85% against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. In vitro cell tests showed that the scaffold promoted cell proliferation.

Abstract
Fe is considered as a potential candidate for implant materials, but its application is impeded by the low degradation rate. Herein, a dual-phase Fe30Mn6Si alloy was prepared by mechanical alloying (MA). During MA, the motion of dislocations driven by the impact stress promoted the solid solution of Mn in Fe, which transformed α-ferrite into γ-austenite since Mn was an austenite-stabilizing element. Meanwhile, the incorporation of Si decreased the stacking fault energy inside austenite grains, which tangled dislocations into stacking faults and acted as nucleation sites for ε-martensite. Resultantly, Fe30Mn6Si powder had a dual-phase structure composed of 53% γ-austenite and 47% ε-martensite. Afterward, the powders were prepared into implants by selective laser melting. The Fe30Mn6Si alloy had a more negative corrosion potential of -0.76 ± 0.09 V and a higher corrosion current of 30.61 ± 0.41 μA/cm2 than Fe and Fe30Mn. Besides, the long-term weight loss tests also proved that Fe30Mn6Si had the optimal degradation rate (0.25 ± 0.02 mm/year).

Abstract
Fe-based biocomposites are emerging as temporary orthopedic implants due to natural biodegradability and high mechanical strength. Yet, the slow degradation kinetics restricts their biomedical applications. In this work, Cu-initiated redox system was established to accelerate the biodegradation of Fe-C composite scaffold prepared by selective laser melting. On the one hand, Cu induced micro-galvanic corrosion with Fe matrix due to their differences in potentials, accelerating the electron separation from Fe and further the dissolution of Fe matrix. On the other hand, Cu, as a good conductor of electron transfer, reduced the electron transfer impedance and increased the corrosion current density in Fe/C micro-galvanic cells. Consequently, the degradation rate of Fe-C scaffold was increased by 69% from 0.16 mm/y to 0.27 mm/y in the immersion tests. Additionally, the composite scaffold exhibited compression strength of 128 MPa and hardness of 148 HV, respectively. After co-culturing with the composite scaffold, MG-63 cells presented classical fusiform shape and good cell viability, indicating favorable biocompatibility. These results showed the potential applications of the developed redox systems as highly efficient initiator in accelerating the biodegradation of Fe-based biocomposites.

Abstract
Black phosphorus (BP) exhibits great potential as antibacterial materials due to its unique photocatalytic activity. However, the unsatisfactory optical absorption and quick recombination of photoinduced electron-hole pairs restrain its photocatalytic antibacterial performance. In this work, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were decorated on BP to construct BP@AgNPs nanohybrids and then introduced into poly-l-lactic acid scaffold. Combining the tunable bandgap of BP and the LSPR effect of AgNPs, BP@AgNPs nanohybrids displayed the broaden visible light absorption. Furthermore, AgNPs acted as electron acceptors could accelerate charge transfer and suppress electron-hole recombination. Therefore, BP@AgNPs nanohybrids achieved synergistically enhanced photocatalytic antibacterial activity under visible light irradiation. Fluorescence probe experiment verified that BP@AgNPs promoted the generation of reactive oxygen species, which could disrupt bacteria membrane, damage DNA and oxide proteins, and finally lead to bacteria apoptosis. As a result, the scaffold possessed strong antibacterial efficiency with a bactericidal rate of 97% under light irradiation. Moreover, the scaffold also exhibited good cytocompatibility. This work highlighted a new strategy to develop photocatalytic antibacterial scaffold for bone implant application.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The reinforcement effect of fiber-reinforced polymer composites is usually limited because of the poor interfacial interaction between fiber and polymer, though fiber reinforcement is regarded as an effective method to enhance the mechanical properties of polymer. METHODS In this study, nano-SiO2 particles grafted by 3-Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (KH560) were introduced onto the surface of 3-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane (KH550) modified carbon fiber (CF) by a self-assembly strategy to improve the interfacial bonding between CF and biopolymer poly (lactic acid) (PLLA). RESULTS The results indicated that PLLA chains preferred to anchor at the surface of nano-SiO2 particles and then formed high order crystalline structures. Subsequently, PLLA spherulites could epitaxially grow on the surface of functionalized CF, forming a transcrystalline structure at the CF/PLLA interface. Meanwhile, the nano-SiO2 particles were fixed in the transcrystalline structure, which induced a stronger mechanical locking effect between CF and PLLA matrix. The results of tensile experiments indicated that the PLLA/CF-SiO2 scaffold with a ratio of CF to SiO2 of 9:3 possessed the optimal strength and modulus of 10.11 MPa and 1.18 GPa, respectively. In addition, in vitro tests including cell adhesion and fluorescence indicated that the scaffold had no toxicity and could provide a suitable microenvironment for the growth and proliferation of cell. CONCLUSION In short, the PLLA/CF-SiO2 scaffold with good mechanical properties and cytocompatibility had great potential in the application of bone tissue engineering.
