Abstract
Improved living conditions have led to an increase in life expectancy worldwide. However, as people age, the risk of vascular disease tends to increase due to the accumulation and buildup of plaque in arteries. Vascular stents are used to keep blood vessels open. Biodegradable stents are designed to provide a temporary support vessel that gradually degrades and is absorbed by the body, leaving behind healed blood vessels. However, biodegradable metals can suffer from reduced mechanical strength and/or inflammatory response, both of which can affect the rate of corrosion. Therefore, it is essential to achieve a controlled and predictable degradation rate. Here, we demonstrate that the corrosion resistance of biodegradable Zn surfaces is improved by electroless deposition of zinc hydroxystannate followed by UV-grafting with silicone oil (PDMS). Potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, respiratory kinetic measurements, and long-term immersion in three simulated body fluids were applied. Although zinc hydroxystannate improves the corrosion resistance of Zn to some extent, it introduces a high surface area with hydroxyl units used to UV-graft PDMS molecules. Our results demonstrate that hydrophobic PDMS causes a 3-fold reduction in corrosion of Zn-based materials in biological environments and reduces cytotoxicity through the uncontrolled release of Zn ions.

Abstract
Developing a self-expanding hemostatic sponge with high blood absorption and rapid shape recovery for noncompressible hemorrhage remains a challenge. In this study, a 3D-printed cuttlefish bone elastomeric sponge (CBES) is fabricated, which combined ordered channels and porous structures, presented tunable mechanical strength, and shape memory potentials. The incorporation of cuttlefish bone powder (CBp) plays key roles in concentrating blood components, promoting aggregation of red blood cells and platelets, and activating platelets, which makes CBES show enhanced hemostatic performance compared with commercial gelatin sponges in vivo. Moreover, CBES promotes more histiocytic infiltration and neovascularization in the early stage of degradation than gelatin sponges, which is conducive to the regeneration and repair of injured tissue. To conclude, CBp loaded 3D-printed elastomeric sponges can promote coagulation, present the potential to guide tissue healing, and broaden the hemostatic application of traditional Chinese medicine.

Property and biological effects of the cuttlebone derived calcium phosphate particles, a potential bioactive bone substitute material. J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2023; 111:1207-1223.

Abstract
Cuttlebone (CB) is a marine waste-derived biomaterial and a rich source of calcium carbonate for the biosynthesis of the calcium phosphate (CaP) particles. The current study aimed to synthesize CB derived biphasic calcium phosphate (CB-BCP) and investigate biological activity of the CB-CaP: hydroxyapatite (CB-HA), beta-tricalcium phosphate (CB-b-TCP) and biphasic 60:40 (w/w) HA/b-TCP (CB-BCP) with the human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). The particles were synthesized using solid state reactions under mild condition and properties of the particles were compared with a commercial BCP as a reference material. Morphology, particle size, physicochemical properties, mineral contents, and the ion released patterns of the particles were examined. Then the particle/cell interaction, cell cytotoxicity and osteogenic property of the particles were investigated in the direct and indirect cell culture models. It was found that an average particles size of the CB-HA was 304.73 ± 4.19 nm, CB-b-TCP, 503.17 ± 23.06 nm and CB-BCP, 1394.67 ± 168.19 nm. The physicochemical characteristics of the CB-CaP were consistent with the HA, b-TCP and BCP. The highest level of calcium (Ca) was found in the mineral contents and the preincubated medium of the CB-BCP and traces of fluoride, magnesium, strontium, and zinc were identified in the CB-CaP. The cell cytotoxicity and osteogenic property of the particles were dose dependent. The particles adhered on cell surface and were internalized into the cell cytoplasm. The CB-BCP and CB-HA indirectly and directly promote osteoblastic differentiations of the hDPSCs in stronger levels than other groups. The CB-BCP and CB-HA were potential bioactive bone substitute materials.

PCL/Si-Doped Multi-Phase Calcium Phosphate Scaffolds Derived from Cuttlefish Bone. MATERIALS 2022; 15:ma15093348.

Abstract
Increasing attention is focused on developing biomaterials as temporary scaffolds that provide a specific environment and microstructure for bone tissue regeneration. The aim of the present work was to synthesize silicon-doped biomimetic multi-phase composite scaffolds based on bioactive inorganic phases and biocompatible polymers (poly(ε-caprolactone), PCL) using simple and inexpensive methods. Porous multi-phase composite scaffolds from cuttlefish bone were synthesized using a hydrothermal method and were further impregnated with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane 1–4 times, heat-treated (1000 °C) and coated with PCL. The effect of silicon doping and the PCL coating on the microstructure and mechanical and biological properties of the scaffolds has been investigated. Multi-phase scaffolds based on calcium phosphate (hydroxyapatite, α-tricalcium phosphate, β-tricalcium phosphate) and calcium silicate (wollastonite, larnite, dicalcium silicate) phases were obtained. Elemental mapping revealed homogeneously dispersed silicon throughout the scaffolds, whereas silicon doping increased bovine serum albumin protein adsorption. The highly porous structure of cuttlefish bone was preserved with a composite scaffold porosity of ~78%. A compressive strength of ~1.4 MPa makes the obtained composite scaffolds appropriate for non-load-bearing applications. Cytocompatibility assessment by an MTT assay of human mesenchymal stem cells revealed the non-cytotoxicity of the obtained scaffolds.

Abstract
Marine resources have tremendous potential for developing high-value biomaterials. The last decade has seen an increasing number of biomaterials that originate from marine organisms. This field is rapidly evolving. Marine biomaterials experience several periods of discovery and development ranging from coralline bone graft to polysaccharide-based biomaterials. The latter are represented by chitin and chitosan, marine-derived collagen, and composites of different organisms of marine origin. The diversity of marine natural products, their properties and applications are discussed thoroughly in the present review. These materials are easily available and possess excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability and potent bioactive characteristics. Important applications of marine biomaterials include medical applications, antimicrobial agents, drug delivery agents, anticoagulants, rehabilitation of diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, bone diseases and diabetes, as well as comestible, cosmetic and industrial applications.

Abstract
Healing of large bone defects remains a challenge in reconstructive surgery, especially with impaired healing potential due to severe trauma, infection or irradiation. In vivo studies are often performed in healthy animals, which might not accurately reflect the situation in clinical cases. In the present study, we successfully combined a critical-sized femoral defect model with an ionizing radiation protocol in rats. To support bone healing, tissue-engineered constructs were transferred into the defect after ectopic preossification and prevascularization. The combination of SiHA, MSCs and BMP-2 resulted in the significant ectopic formation of bone tissue, which can easily be transferred by means of our custom-made titanium chamber. Implanted osteogenic MSCs survived in vivo for a total of 18 weeks. The use of SiHA alone did not lead to bone formation after ectopic implantation. Analysis of gene expression showed early osteoblast differentiation and a hypoxic and inflammatory environment in implanted constructs. Irradiation led to impaired bone healing, decreased vascularization and lower short-term survival of implanted cells. We conclude that our model is highly valuable for the investigation of bone healing and tissue engineering in pre-damaged tissue and that healing of bone defects can be substantially supported by combining SiHA, MSCs and BMP-2.

Abstract
Implant materials must mimic natural human bones with biocompatibility, osteoconductivity and mechanical stability to successfully replace damaged or disease-affected bones. Synthetic hydroxyapatite was incorporated with bioglass to mimic natural bones for replacing conventional implant materials which has led to certain toxicity issues. Hence, hydroxyapatite (HAp) are recently gaining applicational importance as they are resembling the structure and function of natural bones. Further, nanosized HAp is under extensive research to utilize them as a potential replacement for traditional implants with several exclusive properties. However, chemical synthesis of nano-HAp exhibited toxicity towards normal and healthy cells. Recently, biogenic Hap synthesis from marine and animal sources are introduced as a next generation implant materials, due to their mineral ion and significant porous architecture mediated biocompatibility and bone bonding ability, compared to synthetic HAp. Thus, the purpose of the paper is to give a bird's eye view into the conventional approaches for fabricating nano-HAp, its limitations and the significance of using marine organisms and marine food wastes as a precursor for biogenic nano-Hap production. Moreover, in vivo and in vitro analyses of marine source derived nano-HAp and their potential biomedical applications were also discussed.

Abstract
Bone matrix is predominantly made up of collagen, and in vitro and in animal models studies have shown that silicon is linked to glycosaminoglycans and plays an important role in the formation of cross-links between collagen and proteoglycans, determining the beneficial effects on strength, composition, and mechanical properties of bone. However, there are still no precise indications regarding a possible role of silicon on bone health in humans. Given this background, the aim of this narrative review was to consider the effectiveness of silicon dietary intake and silicon dietary supplementation (alone or with other micronutrients), in order to suggest a daily dosage of Si supplementation, on bone mineral density in humans. This review included eight eligible studies: four regarding dietary intake and four considering supplementation with silicon alone or with other nutrients. Despite the number of studies considered being low, the number of subjects studied is high (10012) and the results are interesting. Although to date the available scientific evidences are not considered valid enough to allow to establish an adequate level of Silicon intake, based on extrapolations from the data obtained with studies on animal and human models, it has been suggested that an adequate intake in order to promote beneficial effects for bone could be considered to be around 25 mg silicon/day. As for silicon dietary supplements, it has been shown that the combined treatment with orthosilicic acid (6 mg), calcium, and vitamin D has a potentially beneficial effect on femoral BMD compared to only use of calcium and vitamin D.

Abstract
In bone tissue engineering, ionic doping using bone-related minerals such as magnesium (Mg) or strontium (Sr) is a promising strategy to make up for the inherent disadvantages (low solubility) of various apatite-based materials (such as fluorapatite (FAp) and hydroxyapatite (HA)). Therefore, some studies in recent years have tried to address the lack-of-methodology to improve the properties of bioceramics in the field. Even though the outcome of the studies has shown some promises, the influence of doped elements on the structures and properties of in-vitro and in-vivo mineralized FAp has not been investigated in detail so far. Thus, it is still an open question mark in the field. In this work, strontium modified fluorapatite (Sr-FAp), magnesium and silicon modified fluorapatite (Mg-SiFAp) bioceramics were synthesized using a mechanical alloying methodology. Results showed that the doped elements could decrease the crystallinity of FAp (56%) to less than 45% and 39% for Sr-FAp and Mg-SiFAp, respectively. Moreover, in-vitro studies revealed that Sr-FAp significantly enhanced osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs, after 21 days of culture, compared to Mg-SiFAp at both osteogenic and normal media. Then, in vivo bone formation in a defect of rat femur filled with a Sr-FAp and Mg-SiFAp compared to empty defect was investigated. Histological analysis revealed an increase in bone formation three weeks after implanting Sr-FAp compared to Mg-SiFAp and the empty defect. These results suggest that compared to magnesium and silicon, strontium ion significantly promotes bone formation in fluorapatite, making it appropriate for filling bone defects.

Abstract
Antibacterial and osteogenic functionalization of titanium (Ti) implants will greatly expand their clinical indications in immediate implant therapy, accelerate osteointegration, and enhance long-term prognosis. We had recently shown that the high-energy shot peening (HESP)-assisted micro-arc oxidation (MAO) significantly improved the bioactivity and coating stability of Ti-based substrates. In this study, we further functionalized Ti with antibacterial and osteogenic properties by doping silicon (Si) and/or copper (Cu) ions into HESP/MAO-treated coatings. Physicochemical characterization displayed that the doping of Si and Cu in HESP/MAO-treated coatings (Si/Cu-MAO) did not significantly change their surface topography, roughness, crystal structure, coating thickness, bonding strength, and wettability. The results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed that Si and Cu in the Si/Cu-MAO coating was in the form of silicate radical (SiO3 2-) and bivalent copper (Cu2+), respectively. The total amounts of Si and Cu were about 13.5 and 5.8 μg/cm2, which released about 33.2 and 31.3% within 14 day, respectively. Compared with the control group (MAO), Si doping samples (MAO-Si) significantly increased the cell viability, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, mineralization and osteogenic genes (ALP, collagen I and osteocalcin) expression of MC3T3-E1 cells. Furthermore, the addition of Cu presented good bactericidal property against both Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus mutans (even under the co-culture condition of bacteria and MC3T3-E1 cells): the bacteriostatic rate of both bacteria was over 95%. In conclusion, the novel bioactive Si/Cu-MAO coating with antibacterial and osteogenic properties is a promising functionalization method for orthopedic and dental implants, especially in the immediate implant treatment with an infected socket.

Abstract
A hydroxyapatite scaffold is a suitable biomaterial for bone tissue engineering due to its chemical component which mimics native bone. Electronic states which present on the surface of hydroxyapatite have the potential to be used to promote the adsorption or transduction of biomolecules such as protein or DNA. This study aimed to compare the morphology and bioactivity of sinter and nonsinter marine-based hydroxyapatite scaffolds. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and micro-computed tomography (microCT) were used to characterize the morphology of both scaffolds. Scaffolds were co-cultured with 5 × 104/cm2 of MC3T3-E1 preosteoblast cells for 7, 14, and 21 days. FESEM was used to observe the cell morphology, and MTT and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assays were conducted to determine the cell viability and differentiation capacity of cells on both scaffolds. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (rtPCR) was used to identify the expression of osteoblast markers. The sinter scaffold had a porous microstructure with the presence of interconnected pores as compared with the nonsinter scaffold. This sinter scaffold also significantly supported viability and differentiation of the MC3T3-E1 preosteoblast cells (p < 0.05). The marked expression of Col1α1 and osteocalcin (OCN) osteoblast markers were also observed after 14 days of incubation (p < 0.05). The sinter scaffold supported attachment, viability, and differentiation of preosteoblast cells. Hence, sinter hydroxyapatite scaffold from nacreous layer is a promising biomaterial for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the formation of nanostructure on cuttlefish bone transformed hydroxyapatite (CB-HA) porous ceramics and the effects of different nanostructures on the osteoblasts adhesion, proliferation, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) expression. Methods The cuttlefish bone was shaped as plate with diameter of 10 mm and thickness of 2 mm, filled with water, and divided into 4 groups. The CB-HA in groups 1-4 were mixed with different phosphorous solutions and then placed in an oven at 120℃ for 24 hours. In addition, the samples in group 4 were further sintered at 1 200℃ for 3 hours to remove nanostructure as controls. The chemical composition of CB-HA were analyzed by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrum, and inductively coupled plasma (ICP). The physical structure was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy, specific surface tester, and porosity tester. The MC3T3-E1 cells of 4th generation were co-cultured with 4 groups of CB-HA. After 1 day, the morphology of the cells was observed under scanning electron microscopy. After 1, 3, and 7 days, the cell proliferation was analyzed by MTT assay. After 7 and 14 days, the ALP expression was measured by pNPP method. Results X-ray diffraction spectrum showed that the four nanostructures of CB-HA were made of hydroxyapatite. The infrared absorption spectrum showed that the infrared absorption peak of CB-HA was consistent with hydroxyapatite. ICP showed that the ratio of calcium to phosphorus of all CB-HA was 1.68-1.76, which was consistent with hydroxyapatite. Scanning electron microscopy observation showed that the nanostructure on the surface of CB-HA in groups 1-3 were large, medium, and small cluster-like structures, respectively, and CB-HA in group 4 had no obvious nanostructure. There were significant differences in the specific surface areas between groups ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the porosity between groups ( P>0.05). Compared with group 4, groups 1-3 have more pores with pore size less than 50 nm. After co-cultured with osteoblasts, scanning electron microscopy observation and MTT assay showed that the cells on groups 2 and 3 adhered and proliferated better and had more ALP expression than that on groups 1 and 4 ( P<0.05). Conclusion The size of cluster-like nanostructure on the surface of CB-HA can be controlled by adjusting the concentration of ammonium ions in the phosphorous solution, and the introduction of small-sized cluster-like nanostructure on the surface of CB-HA can significantly improve the cell adhesion, proliferation, and ALP expression of the material which might be resulted from the enlarged surface area.

Abstract
Recently, usage of marine-derived materials in biomedical field has come into prominence due to their promising characteristics such as biocompatibility, low immunogenicity and wide accessibility. Among these marine sources, cuttlebone has been used as a valuable component with its trace elemental composition in traditional medicine. Recent studies have focused on the use of cuttlebone as a bioactive agent for tissue engineering applications. In this study, hydroxyapatite particles were obtained by hydrothermal synthesis of cuttlebone and incorporated to cellulose scaffolds to fabricate an osteoconductive composite scaffold for bone regeneration. Elemental analysis of raw cuttlebone material from different coastal zones and cuttlebone-derived HAp showed that various macro-, micro- and trace elements - Ca, P, Na, Mg, Cu, Sr, Cl, K, S, Br, Fe and Zn were found in a very similar amount. Moreover, biologically unfavorable heavy metals, such as Ag, Cd, Pb or V, were not detected in any cuttlebone specimen. Carbonated hydroxyapatite particle was further synthesized from cuttlebone microparticles via hydrothermal treatment and used as a mineral filler for the preparation of cellulose-based composite scaffolds. Interconnected highly porous structure of the scaffolds was confirmed by micro-computed tomography. The mean pore size of the scaffolds was 510 µm with a porosity of 85%. The scaffolds were mechanically characterized with a compression test and cuttlebone-derived HAp incorporation enhanced the mechanical properties of cellulose scaffolds. In vitro cell culture studies indicated that MG-63 cells proliferated well on scaffolds. In addition, cuttlebone-derived hydroxyapatite significantly induced the ALP activity and osteocalcin secretion. Besides, HAp incorporation increased the surface mineralization which is the major step for bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Bone is a vascularized and connective tissue. The cortical bone is the main part responsible for the support and protection of the remaining systems and organs of the body. The trabecular spongy bone serves as the storage of ions and bone marrow. As a dynamic tissue, bone is in a constant remodelling process to adapt to the mechanical demands and to repair small lesions that may occur. Nevertheless, due to the increased incidence of bone disorders, the need for bone grafts has been growing over the past decades and the development of an ideal bone graft with optimal properties remains a clinical challenge. This review addresses the bone properties (morphology, composition, and their repair and regeneration capacity) and puts the focus on the potential strategies for developing bone repair and regeneration materials. It describes the requirements for designing a suitable scaffold material, types of materials (polymers, ceramics, and composites), and techniques to obtain the porous structures (additive manufacturing techniques like robocasting or derived from marine skeletons) for bone tissue engineering applications. Overall, the main objective of this review is to gather the knowledge on the materials and methods used for the production of scaffolds for bone tissue engineering and to highlight the potential of natural porous structures such as marine skeletons as promising alternative bone graft substitute materials without any further mineralogical changes, or after partial or total transformation into calcium phosphate.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) that is based on α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) is considered desirable for bone tissue engineering because of its relatively rapid degradation properties. However, such cement is relatively weak, restricting its use to areas of low mechanical stress. Wollastonite fibers (WF) have been used to improve the mechanical strength of biomaterials. However, the biological properties of WF remain poorly understood. Here, we tested the response of osteoblast-like cells to being cultured on CPC reinforced with 5% of WF (CPC-WF). We found that both types of cement studied achieved an ion balance for calcium and phosphate after 3 days of immersion in culture medium and this allowed subsequent long-term cell culture. CPC-WF increased cell viability and stimulated cell differentiation, compared to nonreinforced CPC. We hypothesize that late silicon release by CPC-WF induces increased cell proliferation and differentiation. Based on our findings, we propose that CPC-WF is a promising material for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
In this work, thermoset polyurethane composites were prepared by the addition of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles using the reactants polyol polyether and an aliphatic diisocyanate. The polyol employed in this study was extracted from the Euterpe oleracea Mart. seeds from the Amazon Region of Brazil. The influence of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles on the structure and morphology of the composites was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), the structure was evaluated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermal properties were analyzed by thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), and biological properties were studied by in vitro and in vivo studies. It was found that the addition of HA nanoparticles promoted fibroblast adhesion while in vivo investigations with histology confirmed that the composites promoted connective tissue adherence and did not induce inflammation. In this manner, this study supports the further investigation of bio-based, polyurethane/hydroxyapatite composites as biocompatible scaffolds for numerous tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Control over the morphology and chemical composition of hydroxyapatite (HAp) bioceramic scaffolds is of great importance for their applications. In the present study, Si-substituted HAp bioceramic scaffolds with controllable morphologies (nanosheets and nanorods) were fabricated via hydrothermal treatment of calcium silicate scaffolds as precursors in NaH2PO4 and Na3PO4 aqueous solutions, respectively. Moreover, the effects of surface morphologies and Si substitution on cell attachment, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow stromal cells (rBMSCs) were systematically investigated in vitro. The results showed that nano-topography surfaces could enhance cell attachment, cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and mRNA expression levels of collagen 1 (COL1), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2), bone sialoprotein (BSP) and osteopontin (OPN). Moreover, the Si substitution could further promote cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation, while Si-substituted bioceramics with a nanorod surface possessed the highest stimulatory effect. More importantly, the in vivo rat critical-sized calvarial defect model confirmed that HAp bioceramic scaffolds with nanosheet and nanorod surfaces showed definitive bone regeneration as compared with control HAp bioceramic scaffolds with a traditional smooth surface. Moreover, Si substitution could synergistically enhance bone regeneration and mineralization, while Si-substituted HAp bioceramic scaffolds with a nanorod surface achieved the best bone repair ability. The present study suggests that the modification of the surface morphology and Si substitution on the HAp bioceramic scaffold may be an effective synergistic strategy to improve its clinical performance.
