[PMID: 37960017 PMCID: PMC10647318 DOI: 10.3390/polym15214337] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2023] [Revised: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
It is known that complexes based on natural polysaccharides are able to eliminate bone defects. Prolonged hyperglycemia leads to low bone regeneration and a chronic inflammatory response. The purpose of this study was to increase the efficiency of early bone formation in a cavity of critical size in diabetes mellitus in the experiment. The polyelectrolyte complex contains high-molecular ascorbate of chitosan, chondroitin sulfate, sodium hyaluronate, heparin, adgelon serum growth factor, sodium alginate and amorphous nanohydroxyapatite (CH-SA-HA). Studies were conducted on five groups of white female Wistar rats: group 1-regeneration of a bone defect in healthy animals under a blood clot; group 2-regeneration of a bone defect under a blood clot in animals with diabetes mellitus; group 3-bone regeneration in animals with diabetes mellitus after filling the bone cavity with a collagen sponge; group 4-filling of a bone defect with a CH-SA-HA construct in healthy animals; group 5-filling of a bone defect with a CH-SA-HA construct in animals with diabetes mellitus. Implantation of the CH-SA-HA construct into bone cavities in type I diabetic rats can accelerate the rate of bone tissue repair. The inclusion of modifying polysaccharides and apatite agents in the construction may be a prospect for further improvement of the properties of implants.

Promising Materials in the Fight against Healthcare-Associated Infections: Antibacterial Properties of Chitosan-Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxanes Hybrid Hydrogels. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:428. [PMID: 37623672 PMCID: PMC10456118 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14080428] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 08/13/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023] Open
Abstract
New technologies and materials could help in this fight against healthcare-associated infections. As the majority of these infections are caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria, the development of materials with intrinsic antibacterial properties is a promising field of research. We combined chitosan (CS), with antibacterial properties, with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS), a biocompatible polymer with physico-chemical, mechanical, and rheological properties, creating a hydrogel using cross-linking agent genipin. The antibacterial properties of CS and CS-POSS hydrogels were investigated against nosocomial Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria both in terms of membrane damage and surface charge variations, and finally, the anti-biofilm property was studied through confocal microscopy. Both materials showed a good antibacterial capacity against all analyzed strains, both in suspension, with % decreases between 36.36 and 73.58 for CS and 29.86 and 66.04 for CS-POSS, and in plates with % decreases between 55.29 and 78.32 and 17.00 and 53.99 for CS and CS-POSS, respectively. The treated strains compared to the baseline condition showed an important membrane damage, which also determined a variation of surface charges, and finally, for both hydrogels, a remarkable anti-biofilm property was highlighted. Our findings showed a possible future use of these biocompatible materials in the manufacture of medical and surgical devices with intrinsic antibacterial and anti-biofilm properties.

Abstract
Bone generally displays a high intrinsic capacity to regenerate. Nonetheless, large osseous defects sometimes fail to heal. The treatment of such large segmental defects still represents a considerable clinical challenge. The regeneration of large bone defects often proves difficult, since it relies on the formation of large amounts of bone within an environment impedimental to osteogenesis, characterized by soft tissue damage and hampered vascularization. Consequently, research efforts have concentrated on tissue engineering and regenerative medical strategies to resolve this multifaceted challenge. In this review, we summarize, critically evaluate, and discuss present approaches in light of their clinical relevance; we also present future advanced techniques for bone tissue engineering, outlining the steps to realize for their translation from bench to bedside. The discussion includes the physiology of bone healing, requirements and properties of natural and synthetic biomaterials for bone reconstruction, their use in conjunction with cellular components and suitable growth factors, and strategies to improve vascularization and the translation of these regenerative concepts to in vivo applications. We conclude that the ideal all-purpose material for scaffold-guided bone regeneration is currently not available. It seems that a variety of different solutions will be employed, according to the clinical treatment necessary.

Abstract
Existing strategies for bone defect repair are difficult to monitor. Smart scaffold materials that can quantify the efficiency of new bone formation are important for bone regeneration and monitoring. Carbon nanotubes (CNT) have promising bioactivity and electrical conductivity. In this study, a noninvasive and intelligent monitoring scaffold was prepared for bone regeneration and monitoring by integrating carboxylated CNT into chemically cross-linked carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel. CNT scaffold (0.5% w/v) demonstrated improved mechanical properties with good biocompatibility and electrochemical responsiveness. Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy of CNT scaffold responded sensitively to seed cell differentiation degree in both cellular and animal levels. Interestingly, the CNT scaffold could make up the easy deactivation shortfall of bone morphogenetic protein 2 by sustainably enhancing stem cell osteogenic differentiation and new bone tissue formation through CNT roles. This research provides new ideas for the development of noninvasive and electrochemically responsive bioactive scaffolds, marking an important step in the development of intelligent tissue engineering. Existing strategies for bone defect repair are difficult to monitor. In this study, a noninvasive and intelligent monitoring scaffold was prepared for bone regeneration and monitoring. This scaffold was a combination of CNT integrated into a chemically cross-linked carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel. CNT scaffold showed improved mechanical properties with biocompatibility and electrochemical responsiveness.

Abstract
It has been reported that chitosan scaffolds, due to their physicochemical properties, stimulate cell proliferation in different tissues of the human body. This study aimed to determine the physicochemical, mechanical, and biological properties of chitosan scaffolds crosslinked with ammonium hydroxide, with different pH values, to better understand cell behavior depending on the pH of the biomaterial. Scaffolds were either neutralized with sodium hydroxide solution, washed with distilled water until reaching a neutral pH, or kept at alkaline pH. Physicochemical characterization included scanning electron microscopy (SEM), elemental composition (EDX), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and mechanical testing. In vitro cytotoxicity was assessed via dental-pulp stem cells' (DPSCs') biocompatibility. The results revealed that the neutralized scaffolds exhibited better cell proliferation and morphology. It was concluded that the chitosan scaffolds' high pH (due to residual ammonium hydroxide) decreases DPSCs' cell viability.

Abstract
This study aims at fabricating promising cytocompatible hybrid biocomposite scaffolds from chitosan (CS), hydroxyapatite (HAP) and lignin (L) for bone tissue engineering by using freeze-drying technique. Different ratios of HAP to L (50:0, 37.5:12.5, 25:25 and 12.5:37.5) were taken to determine the optimum ratio for obtaining a composite with superior properties. The mechanical and biological properties of the resulting composites were investigated. The mechanical results showed that the prepared composite with a ratio of 25:25 of HAP/L exhibited a remarkable enhancement in the mechanical properties compared to the others. Additionally, it was found from thein vitroresults that the addition of L enhanced the water uptake value of the resulting scaffolds indicating their increased hydrophilicity. As a result, a significant increase in the attachment and proliferation of MG-63 cell line (osteoblast like cells) was observed in composite scaffolds with L over the scaffold without L (CS/HAP). From these results, it could be suggested that the prepared composite scaffold with 25:25 of HAP/L is very promising biomaterials in bone tissue-engineering as it exhibited a better mechanical and biological properties than the other prepared composites.

Abstract
Background: The reconstruction of bone defect in the face and head is indispensable yet one of the most challenging procedure to date. Chitosan has emerged as a promising low-cost natural biopolymer for the bone scaffold as an alternative to surgery. This study aims to review the effectiveness of chitosan as a bone scaffold for craniofacial bone regeneration.
Methods: This systematic review used Google Scholar and PubMed as database sources. Study selection using PRISMA diagram and Boolean operator to specify the study search. The quality assessment of the study used a checklist from Joanna Briggs Institute for experimental study.
Result: We included 18 experimental studies, both in vivo and in vitro study—the in vivo study used animal subjects such as mice, goats and rabbits. The studies mostly used chitosan combined with other biomaterials such as demineralized bone matrix (DBM), genipin (GP), sodium alginate (SA), resveratrol (Res), polycaprolactone (PCL) and collagen, growth factor and stem cells such as bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2), dental pulp stem cell (DPSC), and human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSC).
Conclusion: Chitosan is a natural polymer with promising osteoconductive, osteoinductive and osteo-integrative effects in bone regeneration. Chitosan utilization for bone scaffolds combined with other biomaterials, growth factors, or stem cells gives better bone regeneration results than chitosan alone.

Abstract
Major challenges facing clinicians treating burn wounds are the lack of integration of treatment to wound, inadequate mechanical properties of treatments, and high infection rates which ultimately lead to poor wound resolution. Electrospun chitosan membranes (ESCM) are gaining popularity for use in tissue engineering applications due to their drug loading ability, biocompatibility, biomimetic fibrous structure, and antimicrobial characteristics. This work aims to modify ESCMs for improved performance in burn wound applications by incorporating elastin and magnesium-phosphate particles (MgP) to improve mechanical and bioactive properties. The following ESCMs were made to evaluate the individual components’ effects; (C: chitosan, CE: chitosan-elastin, CMg: chitosan-MgP, and CEMg: chitosan-elastin-MgP). Membrane properties analyzed were fiber size and structure, hydrophilic properties, elastin incorporation, MgP incorporation and in vitro release, mechanical properties, degradation profiles, and in vitro cytocompatibility with NIH3T3 fibroblasts. The addition of both elastin and MgP increased the average fiber diameter of CE (~400 nm), CMg (~360 nm), and CEMg (565 nm) compared to C (255 nm). Water contact angle analysis showed elastin incorporated membranes (CE and CEMg) had increased hydrophilicity (~50°) compared to the other groups (C and CMg, ~110°). The results from the degradation study showed mass retention of ~50% for C and CMg groups, compared to ~ 30% seen in CE and CEMg after 4 weeks in a lysozyme/PBS solution. CMg and CEMg exhibited burst-release behavior of ~6 µg/ml or 0.25 mM magnesium within 72 h. In vitro analysis with NIH3T3 fibroblasts showed CE and CEMg groups had superior cytocompatibility compared to C and CMg. This work has demonstrated the successful incorporation of elastin and MgP into ESCMs and allows for future studies on burn wound applications.

Abstract
Background Bone has important functions in the body. Several researchers have reported that the polysaccharides and lipopolysaccharide derived from microbes can promote osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. Enterococcus faecium, a lactic acid bacterium (LAB), produces several bioactive metabolites and has been widely applied in the food and nutraceutical industries. The exopolysaccharide (EPS) from LAB has also been extensively examined for its postbiotic effects and for its in vivo and in vitro functionalities. However, studies on promoting bone differentiation using polysaccharides from LAB are lacking. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of E. faecium L15 extract and EPS on osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) and to identify the underlying mechanisms. Methods hDPSCs were obtained from dental pulp tissue, and L15 extract and EPS were isolated from L15. Gene and protein expression of the osteogenic differentiation markers were analyzed with qPCR and western blotting and the possible signaling pathways were also investigated using western blotting. Osteogenic differentiation potential was examined by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and alizarin red s (ARS) staining. In addition, osteogenic differentiation potential of L15 EPS was explored in ex vivo culture of neonate murine calvaria. Results The calcium deposition and ALP activity were enhanced by addition of L15 extract or EPS. The expression levels of RUNX2, ALP, and COL1A1 mRNA and the protein expression levels of RUNX2, ALP, and BMP4 were increased in hDPSCs treated with the L15 extract or EPS. The L15 EPS treatment enhanced phosphorylation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). The L15 EPS-induced increases in RUNX2, ALP, and BMP4 expression were suppressed by the p38 MAPK inhibitor SB203580. The promoting effect of L15 EPS on osteogenic differentiation was not only seen in hDPSCs, but also in osteoblast precursors. ALP activity and the expression of RUNX2, ALP, and COL1A1 increased in the L15 EPS-treated osteoblast precursors. In addition, L15 EPS increased bone thickness of neonate murine calvaria in ex vivo culture. Conclusions The stimulatory effect of L15 extract and EPS on osteogenic differentiation occurred through the p38 MAPK pathway, and L15 EPS enhanced new bone formation in neonate murine calvaria. These data suggest that L15 EPS has therapeutic potential applicable to bone regeneration.

Abstract
Reconstruction of critical-sized bone defects remains a tremendous challenge for surgeons worldwide. Despite the variety of surgical techniques, current clinical strategies for bone defect repair demonstrate significant limitations and drawbacks, including donor-site morbidity, poor anatomical match, insufficient bone volume, bone graft resorption, and rejection. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) has emerged as a novel approach to guided bone tissue regeneration. BTE focuses on in vitro manipulations with seed cells, growth factors and bioactive scaffolds using bioreactors. The successful clinical translation of BTE requires overcoming a number of significant challenges. Currently, insufficient vascularization is the critical limitation for viability of the bone tissue-engineered construct. Furthermore, efficacy and safety of the scaffolds cell-seeding and exogenous growth factors administration are still controversial. The in vivo bioreactor principle (IVB) is an exceptionally promising concept for the in vivo bone tissue regeneration in a predictable patient-specific manner. This concept is based on the self-regenerative capacity of the human body, and combines flap prefabrication and axial vascularization strategies. Multiple experimental studies on in vivo BTE strategies presented in this review demonstrate the efficacy of this approach. Routine clinical application of the in vivo bioreactor principle is the future direction of BTE; however, it requires further investigation for overcoming some significant limitations.

Application of Mesoporous Silica Nanoparticle-Chitosan-Loaded BMP-2 in the Repair of Bone Defect in Chronic Osteomyelitis. J Immunol Res 2022; 2022:4450196.

Abstract
In order to test the effectiveness of nanoparticle- (NP-) loaded bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) in chronic osteomyelitis (CO) complicated with bone defect, a new nanodrug delivery system composed of mesoporous silica NP (MSN) and chitosan were used to load BMP-2 and transfer it to the target region. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were purchased and cultivated to detect the osteogenesis of chitosan-MSN (Chi-MSN) and polylactic acid glycolic acid (PLGA) delivery system. In addition, the osteogenesis of Chi-MSN was further determined by constructing a bone defect mouse model. In physicochemical property test, we found Chi-MSN NPs could effectively maintain stability in vivo and had pH response characteristics. As a result, the release efficiency of dexamethasone (Dex) and BMP-2 in the environment with pH 7.4 was less, while it increased significantly in pH 6, so as to reduce the BMP-2 and Dex loss during transportation in vivo. Otherwise, we found that the permeation efficiency of Chi-MSN was significantly higher than that of PLGA delivery system, so as to effectively transport BMP-2 and Dex to action target. In the BMSC test, we found that Chi-MSN could better promote their activity and osteogenesis, and the expression of osteogenesis-related genes (runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX-2), osteopontine (OPN), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and osteopontine (OCN)) in the Chi-MSN group was higher. In the bone defect mouse model test, we also found obviously increased bone trabecula number and thickness by Chi-MSN, contributing to better repair of bone defects. Therefore, BMP-2@Chi-MSN may be a better choice for the therapy of CO complicated with bone defect in the future.

Abstract
Trauma and bone loss from infections, tumors, and congenital diseases make bone repair and regeneration the greatest challenges in orthopedic, craniofacial, and plastic surgeries. The shortage of donors, intrinsic limitations, and complications in transplantation have led to more focus and interest in regenerative medicine. Structures that closely mimic bone tissue can be produced by this unique technology. The steady development of three-dimensional (3D)-printed bone tissue engineering scaffold therapy has played an important role in achieving the desired goal. Bioceramic scaffolds are widely studied and appear to be the most promising solution. In addition, 3D printing technology can simulate mechanical and biological surface properties and print with high precision complex internal and external structures to match their functional properties. Inkjet, extrusion, and light-based 3D printing are among the rapidly advancing bone bioprinting technologies. Furthermore, stem cell therapy has recently shown an important role in this field, although large tissue defects are difficult to fill by injection alone. The combination of 3D-printed bone tissue engineering scaffolds with stem cells has shown very promising results. Therefore, biocompatible artificial tissue engineering with living cells is the key element required for clinical applications where there is a high demand for bone defect repair. Furthermore, the emergence of various advanced manufacturing technologies has made the form of biomaterials and their functions, composition, and structure more diversified, and manifold. The importance of this article lies in that it aims to briefly review the main principles and characteristics of the currently available methods in orthopedic bioprinting technology to prepare bioceramic scaffolds, and finally discuss the challenges and prospects for applications in this promising and vital field.

Abstract
The continuous advances in surgical procedures require continuous research regarding materials with surgical applications. Biopolymers are widely studied since they usually provide a biocompatible, biodegradable, and non-toxic material. Among them, chitosan is a promising material for the development of formulations and devices with surgical applications due to its intrinsic bacteriostatic, fungistatic, hemostatic, and analgesic properties. A wide range of products has been manufactured with this polymer, including scaffolds, sponges, hydrogels, meshes, membranes, sutures, fibers, and nanoparticles. The growing interest of researchers in the use of chitosan-based materials for tissue regeneration is obvious due to extensive research in the application of chitosan for the regeneration of bone, nervous tissue, cartilage, and soft tissues. Chitosan can serve as a substance for the administration of cell-growth promoters, as well as a support for cellular growth. Another interesting application of chitosan is hemostasis control, with remarkable results in studies comparing the use of chitosan-based dressings with traditional cotton gauzes. In addition, chitosan-based or chitosan-coated surgical materials provide the formulation with antimicrobial activity that has been highly appreciated not only in dressings but also for surgical sutures or meshes.

Abstract
Biomaterials have been investigated as an alternative for the treatment of bone defects, such as chitosan/carbon nanotubes scaffolds, which allow cell proliferation. However, bone regeneration can be accelerated by electrotherapeutic resources that act on bone metabolism, such as low-level laser therapy (LLLT). Thus, this study evaluated the regeneration of bone lesions grafted with chitosan/carbon nanotubes scaffolds and associated with LLLT. For this, a defect (3 mm) was created in the femur of thirty rats, which were divided into 6 groups: Control (G1/Control), LLLT (G2/Laser), Chitosan/Carbon Nanotubes (G3/C+CNTs), Chitosan/Carbon Nanotubes with LLLT (G4/C+CNTs+L), Mineralized Chitosan/Carbon Nanotubes (G5/C+CNTsM) and Mineralized Chitosan/Carbon Nanotubes with LLLT (G6/C+CNTsM+L). After 5 weeks, the biocompatibility of the chitosan/carbon nanotubes scaffolds was observed, with the absence of inflammatory infiltrates and fibrotic tissue. Bone neoformation was denser, thicker and voluminous in G6/C+CNTsM+L. Histomorphometric analyses showed that the relative percentage and standard deviations (mean ± SD) of new bone formation in groups G1 to G6 were 59.93 ± 3.04a (G1/Control), 70.83 ± 1.21b (G2/Laser), 70.09 ± 4.31b (G3/C+CNTs), 81.6 ± 5.74c (G4/C+CNTs+L), 81.4 ± 4.57c (G5/C+CNTsM) and 91.3 ± 4.81d (G6/C+CNTsM+L), respectively, with G6 showing a significant difference in relation to the other groups (a ≠ b ≠ c ≠ d; p < 0.05). Immunohistochemistry also revealed good expression of osteocalcin (OC), osteopontin (OP) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). It was concluded that chitosan-based carbon nanotube materials combined with LLLT effectively stimulated the bone healing process.

Abstract
Some cancers such as human breast cancer, prostate cancer, and lung cancer easily metastasize to bone, leading to osteolysis and bone destruction accompanied by a complicated microenvironment. Systemic administration of bisphosphonates (BP) or denosumab is the routine therapy for osteolysis but with non-negligible side effects such as mandibular osteonecrosis and hypocalcemia. Thus, it is imperative to exploit optimized drug delivery systems, and some novel nanotechnology and nanomaterials have opened new horizons for scientists. Targeted and local drug delivery systems can optimize biodistribution depending on nanoparticles (NPs) or microspheres (MS) and implantable biomaterials with the controllable property. Drug delivery kinetics can be optimized by smart and sustained/local drug delivery systems for responsive delivery and sustained delivery. These delicately fabricated drug delivery systems with special matrix, structure, morphology, and modification can minimize unexpected toxicity caused by systemic delivery and achieve desired effects through integrating multiple drugs or multiple functions. This review summarized recent studies about optimized drug delivery systems for the treatment of cancer metastatic osteolysis, aimed at giving some inspiration in designing efficient multifunctional drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Material science is a relevant discipline in support of regenerative medicine. Indeed, tissue regeneration requires the use of scaffolds able to guide and sustain the natural cell metabolism towards tissue regrowth. This need is particularly important in musculoskeletal regeneration, such as in the case of diseased bone or osteocartilaginous regions for which calcium phosphate-based scaffolds are considered as the golden solution. However, various technological barriers related to conventional ceramic processing have thus far hampered the achievement of biomimetic and bioactive scaffolds as effective solutions for still unmet clinical needs in orthopaedics. Driven by such highly impacting socioeconomic needs, new nature-inspired approaches promise to make a technological leap forward in the development of advanced biomaterials. The present review illustrates ion-doped apatites as biomimetic materials whose bioactivity resides in their unstable chemical composition and nanocrystallinity, both of which are, however, destroyed by the classical sintering treatment. In the following, recent nature-inspired methods preventing the use of high-temperature treatments, based on (i) chemically hardening bioceramics, (ii) biomineralisation process, and (iii) biomorphic transformations, are illustrated. These methods can generate products with advanced biofunctional properties, particularly biomorphic transformations represent an emerging approach that could pave the way to a technological leap forward in medicine and also in various other application fields.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the in vivo biological safety of porous zinc oxide (ZnO)/hydroxyapatite (HA) composite materials. Methods The porous ZnO/HA composite materials and porous HA materials were prepared by the spark plasma sintering technology. First, the materials were characterized, including scanning electron microscopy to observe the material structure, in vitro degradation experiments to detect the degradation rate of the materials, and inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer to detect the concentration of Zn 2+ dissolved out of the composite material degradation. Then the two kinds of material extracts were prepared for acute systemic toxicity test. Fifteen male Kunming mice were randomly divided into groups A, B, and C ( n=5) and injected intraperitoneally with normal saline, HA extracts, and ZnO/HA extracts, respectively. The body mass of the mice was recorded before injection and at 24, 48, and 72 hours after injection. The liver and kidney tissues were taken at 72 hours for HE staining to evaluate the safety of the composite material. Finally, the biological safety of the material in vivo was evaluated by implantation experiment. The eighteen male New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into HA group and ZnO/HA group ( n=9); a bilateral radius defect model (1 cm) was established, and the right forelimbs of the two groups were implanted with porous HA materials and porous ZnO/HA composite materials, respectively; the left untreated as a blank control. The general condition of the animals were observed after operation. The rabbit blood was collected at 1 day before operation and at 1 day, 1 week, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks after operation for routine blood test (inflammation-related indicators) and blood biochemistry (liver and kidney function-related indicators). X-ray films were taken at 4, 8, and 12 weeks after operation to observe the repair of bone defects. Results Material characterization showed that porous ZnO/HA composite materials had interconnected large and small pore structures with a pore size between 50 and 500 μm, which degraded faster than porous HA materials, and continuously and slowly dissolved Zn 2+. The acute systemic toxicity test showed that the mice in each group had no abnormal performance after injection, and the body mass increased ( P<0.05). HE staining showed that the cells shape and structure of liver and kidney tissue were normal. Animal implantation experiments showed that all rabbits survived until the experiment was completed; routine blood tests showed inflammation in each group (neutrophils, monocytes, and lymphocytes increased) at 1 day after operation, and all returned to normal at 8 weeks ( P>0.05); compared with 1 day before operation, the content of inflammatory cells in the HA group increased at 1 day, 1 week, and 4 weeks after operation ( P<0.05), and the ZnO/HA group increased at 1 day after operation ( P<0.05); blood biochemistry showed that the liver and kidney function indexes were in the normal range; X-ray films showed that the ZnO/HA group had better osseointegration than the HA group at 4 weeks after operation. Conclusion The porous ZnO/HA composite material has good in vivo biological safety and good bone repair ability, which is a potential bone repair material.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bone defect is serious condition that is usually caused by traffic accident. Chitosan is a polymer developed as a scaffold to treat bone defect. However, the mechanism by which chitosan can accelerate bone growth in defect area is still unclear. This study aims to identify proteins which are crucial to the osteogenic properties of chitosan monomer using an in silico study. METHODS Molecular docking was carried out on chitosan monomer, which are d-glucosamine and glucosamine 6-phosphate units against bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2), fibronectin, fibroblast growth factor (Fgf), and phosphate transporter (PiT) using AutoDock Vina. Ligand preparation was carried out using Chem3D version 15.0.0.106, while protein preparation was performed using AutoDockTools version 1.5.6. RESULTS The results showed that glucosamine 6-phosphate had the best binding affinity with fibronectin and PiT, which was -5.7 kcal mol-1 on both proteins, while d-glucosamine had the best binding affinity with PiT (-5.2 kcal mol-1). CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that the osteogenic properties of chitosan may be due to the presence of bonds between glucosamine units and fibronectin and/or PiT. However, in vitro studies need to be done to prove this.

Abstract
After tooth loss, bone resorption is irreversible, leaving the area without adequate bone volume for successful implant treatment. Bone grafting is the only solution to reverse dental bone loss and is a well-accepted procedure required in one in every four dental implants. Research and development in materials, design and fabrication technologies have expanded over the years to achieve successful and long-lasting dental implants for tooth substitution. This review will critically present the various dental bone graft and substitute materials that have been used to achieve a successful dental implant. The article also reviews the properties of dental bone grafts and various dental bone substitutes that have been studied or are currently available commercially. The various classifications of bone grafts and substitutes, including natural and synthetic materials, are critically presented, and available commercial products in each category are discussed. Different bone substitute materials, including metals, ceramics, polymers, or their combinations, and their chemical, physical, and biocompatibility properties are explored. Limitations of the available materials are presented, and areas which require further research and development are highlighted. Tissue engineering hybrid constructions with enhanced bone regeneration ability, such as cell-based or growth factor-based bone substitutes, are discussed as an emerging area of development.

Abstract
Porous microcarriers have aroused increasing attention recently by facilitating oxygen and nutrient transfer, supporting cell attachment and growth with sufficient cell seeding density. In this study, porous polyetheretherketone (PEEK) microcarriers coated with mineralized extracellular matrix (mECM), known for their chemical, mechanical and biological superiority, were developed for orthopedic applications. Porous PEEK microcarriers were derived from smooth microcarriers using a simple wet-chemistry strategy involving the reduction of carbonyl groups. This treatment simultaneously modified surface topology and chemical composition. Furthermore, the microstructure, protein absorption, cytotoxicity and bioactivity of the obtained porous microcarriers were investigated. The deposition of mECM through repeated recellularization and decellularization on the surface of porous MCs further promoted cell proliferation and osteogenic activity. Additionally, the mECM coated porous microcarriers exhibited excellent bone regeneration in a rat calvarial defect repair model in vivo, suggesting huge potential applications in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Introduction. Several biomaterials are used in periodontal tissue engineering in order to obtain a three-dimensional scaffold, which could enhance the oral bone regeneration. These novel biomaterials, when placed in the affected area, activate a cascade of events, inducing regenerative cellular responses, and replacing the missing tissue. Natural and synthetic polymers can be used alone or in combination with other biomaterials, growth factors, and stem cells. Natural-based polymer chitosan is widely used in periodontal tissue engineering. It presents biodegradability, biocompatibility, and biological renewability properties. It is bacteriostatic and nontoxic and has hemostatic and mucoadhesive capacity. The aim of this systematic review is to obtain an updated overview of the utilization and effectiveness of chitosan-based scaffold (CS-bs) in the alveolar bone regeneration process. Materials and Methods. During database searching (using PubMed, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL), 72 items were found. The title, abstract, and full text of each study were carefully analyzed and only 22 articles were selected. Thirteen articles were excluded based on their title, five after reading the abstract, twenty-six after reading the full text, and six were not considered because of their publication date (prior to 2010). Quality assessment and data extraction were performed in the twelve included randomized controlled trials. Data concerning cell proliferation and viability (CPV), mineralization level (M), and alkaline phosphatase activity (ALPA) were recorded from each article Results. All the included trials tested CS-bs that were combined with other biomaterials (such as hydroxyapatite, alginate, polylactic-co-glycolic acid, polycaprolactone), growth factors (basic fibroblast growth factor, bone morphogenetic protein) and/or stem cells (periodontal ligament stem cells, human jaw bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells). Values about the proliferation of cementoblasts (CB) and periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs), the activity of alkaline phosphatase, and the mineralization level determined by pure chitosan scaffolds resulted in lower than those caused by chitosan-based scaffolds combined with other molecules and biomaterials. Conclusions. A higher periodontal regenerative potential was recorded in the case of CS-based scaffolds combined with other polymeric biomaterials and bioceramics (bio compared to those provided by CS alone. Furthermore, literature demonstrated that the addition of growth factors and stem cells to CS-based scaffolds might improve the biological properties of chitosan.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Currently, vascularized autologous bone transplantation is considered the gold standard for large mandibular continuity defect reconstruction. Donor site morbidity is a major concern. Therefore, bone tissue engineering (BTE) seems to be the ideal solution. Fresh-frozen bone allograft is the closest material to autologous bone. The purpose of this clinical report is to show a new technique of large mandibular continuity defect reconstruction using a fresh-frozen humeral allograft seeded with autologous iliac bone marrow aspirate and vascularized with a radial forearm flap. METHODS A 33-year-old man presented with severe cranio-facial trauma resulting in several fractures of the facial skeleton including a comminuted mandibular fracture from left parasymphysis to left angle, which caused a large continuity defect. RESULTS Result at 6 months was aesthetically and functionally satisfactory with osseointegration of the bone graft. DISCUSSION The authors chose to use iliac bone marrow aspirate to seed the allograft scaffold since hematopoietic stem cells and mesenchymal stem cell are able to differentiate into osteoblasts, ease of harvest of the iliac crest and its low rate of morbidity. Contemporary biomaterials used for BTE are bioceramic but bone is still the better scaffold to engineer bone and only allografting avoids donor site morbidity. Vascularization is one of the main challenges of BTE; insertion of autologous vascular bundles from pedicle or free flaps is 1 solution. The authors chose the radial forearm flap since the pedicle is long and the authors did not need a great amount of soft tissue.
