Biomaterials 2024; 311:122699. [PMID: 38981153 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/11/2024]
Abstract
The treatment of osteoporotic bone defects poses a challenge due to the degradation of the skeletal vascular system and the disruption of local bone metabolism within the osteoporotic microenvironment. However, it is feasible to modulate the disrupted local bone metabolism imbalance through enhanced vascularization, a theory termed "vascularization-bone metabolic balance". This study developed a 3D-printed polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffold modified with EPLQLKM and SVVYGLR peptides (PCL-SE). The EPLQLKM peptide attracts bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), while the SVVYGLR peptide enhances endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) vascular differentiation, thus regulating bone metabolism and fostering bone regeneration through the paracrine effects of EPCs. Further mechanistic research demonstrated that PCL-SE promoted the vascularization of EPCs, activating the Notch signaling pathway in BMSCs, leading to the upregulation of osteogenesis-related genes and the downregulation of osteoclast-related genes, thereby restoring bone metabolic balance. Furthermore, PCL-SE facilitated the differentiation of EPCs into "H"-type vessels and the recruitment of BMSCs to synergistically enhance osteogenesis, resulting in the regeneration of normal microvessels and bone tissues in cases of femoral condylar bone defects in osteoporotic SD rats. This study suggests that PCL-SE supports in-situ vascularization, remodels bone metabolic translational balance, and offers a promising therapeutic regimen for osteoporotic bone defects.

Abstract
Processing of bone allografts with strong acids and γ-sterilization results in decreased biomechanical properties and reduction in osteogenecity and osteoconductivity. High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatment could be a gentle alternative to processing techniques usually applied. HHP is known to induce devitalization of cancellous bone while preserving biomechanical stability and molecules that induce cell differentiation. Here, a specific HHP protocol for devitalization of cancellous bone was applied to rabbit femoral bone. Allogeneic bone cylinders were subsequently implanted into a defect in the lateral condyles of rabbit femora and were compared to autologous bone grafts. Analysis of bone integration 4 and 12 weeks postoperatively revealed no differences between autografts and HHP-treated allografts regarding the expression of genes characteristic for bone remodeling, showing expression niveous comparable to original bone cylinder. Furthermore, biomechanical properties were evaluated 12 weeks postoperatively. Autografts and HHP-treated allografts both showed a yield strength ranging between 2 and 2.5 MPa and an average bone mass density of 250 mg/cm2. Furthermore, histological analysis of the region of interest revealed a rate of 5 to 10% BPM-2 and approximately 40% osteocalcin-positive staining, with no marked differences between allografts and autografts demonstrating comparable matrix deposition in the graft region. A suitable graft integrity was pointed out by μCT imaging in both groups, supporting the biomechanical data. In summary, the integrity of HHP-treated cancellous bone allografts showed similar results to untreated autografts. Hence, HHP treatment may represent a gentle and effective alternative to existing processing techniques for bone allografts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The posterior maxilla presents challenges for implant insertion because of the poor bone quality as well as the loss of vertical bone height. Indirect transcrestal sinus lift techniques are advised when a few millimeters of additional height are needed. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of antral membrane balloon technique versus Densah burs for transcrestal maxillary sinus lifting with simultaneous implant placement. MATERIALS AND METHODS This randomized clinical trial was conducted on 22 patients received 32 dental implants for replacement of missed maxillary posterior teeth after crestal maxillary sinus lifting. The patients were randomly divided into two groups. Group 1, patients underwent crestal sinus floor elevation with simultaneous implant placement using antral membrane balloon technique. Group 2, patients underwent crestal sinus floor elevation with simultaneous implant placement using Densah burs. Patients were evaluated clinically and radiographically using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) at regular time intervals immediately, 6 months and 12 months after surgery. All clinical and radiographic parameters were statistically analyzed. RESULTS All dental implants were successful for 12 months of follow up. Regarding implant primary stability, there was a statistical significant difference between the study groups in favor of Densah group (P = 0.004), while there was no significant difference after 6 months (P = 0.07). Radiographically, balloon group showed a statistically significant immediate postoperative vertical bone height (P < 0.0001), and significant reduction in vertical bone height after 6 months (P < 0.0001). Densah group showed significant increase in bone density (P ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSION Both techniques demonstrated successful clinical and radiographic outcomes for crestal sinus lift. The antral membrane balloon group demonstrated better immediate postoperative vertical bone gain, while Densah burs had higher implant primary stability and bone density. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study was registered in Clinical-Trials.gov PRS ( https://register. CLINICALTRIALS gov ) under identification number NCT05922592 on 28/06/2023.

Abstract
Bone grafting serves to restore the alveolar bone defect, providing adequate alveolar bone essential for long-term implant survival. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the success rate of guided bone regeneration (GBR) bone grafting and investigate the survival rate of implants and the degree of marginal bone loss (MBL) around implants. Furthermore, the influence of confounding factors such as patient conditions, bone graft properties, and implant characteristics was assessed. This study was carried out on treatment outcomes of patients with implants between January 2007 and December 2016, using various graft materials, including autograft, allograft, and xenograft. In a mean follow-up of 70 months (range: 3-10 years), the overall success rate of bone graft (n = 80) was 100%, and the overall survival rate of implant (n = 107) was 97.2% (autograft: 100%, allograft: 100%, and xenograft: 92.9%; P = .03). Mean MBL up to 3 years after implant installation were similar among graft materials, with 0.84 ± 0.48 mm in autograft, 0.73 ± 0.42 mm in allograft, and 1.01 ± 0.59 mm in xenograft (P = .14). Posterior mandibular location had a significant influence on implant survival (P = .003). A significant association of MBL with several factors, including age >60 years (P = .03), both diabetes and hypertension (P = .02), without receiving adjunctive membrane (P = .04), loading within 3-6 months (P < .001), and screw-retained crown (P = .008), was confirmed. Our data substantiated that implant rehabilitation with GBR using autograft and allograft provides the most predictable results. The factors above should be carefully considered with xenograft to enhance long-term clinical outcomes.

Abstract
AIMS This study aimed to systematically compare the patients undergoing lateral MSFA therapies utilizing bovine-originated xenografts versus varied synthetic bone grafting materials. METHODS Pubmed, Scopus, Embase, and Cochrane Library were searched up to April 2023, compensated by a manual search in selected journals. Studies reporting histological outcomes (residual bone graft, newly formed bone, non-mineralized tissue) and clinical outcomes (implant survival, ISQ value) were included. Several analyses were performed, including meta-analysis, sensitivity study, and Egger's regression tests. RESULTS Sixteen clinical/randomized control trials were included in this systematic review, among which 12 were enrolled in a meta-analysis. The percentage of newly formed bone within the grafted sinuses by hybrid HA/TCP was significantly higher than those by xenografts (WMD 2.85, 95%CI [0.72; 4.99]), but those grafted by pure HA (WMD -1.72, 95%CI [-3.15; -0.29]) or TCP (WMD -7.10, 95%CI [-13.02; -1.17]) were significantly lower than xenograft counterparts. The residual bone graft and non-mineralized tissue yielded by synthetic HA, TCP, and HA/TCP showed no significant differences with the xenograft group. CONCLUSION The chemistry of grafted bone substitutes in lateral MSFA influenced the quantity of newly formed bone. Those grafted with hybrid HA/TCP yielded the highest amount of new bone compared to bovine-originated HA. However, this influence was not significant on residual bone graft and non-mineralized tissue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the biocompatibility and effectiveness in terms of osseointegration of dental implants composed of novel injectable bone grafts with and without ostrich eggshell particles and membrane protein in rabbit femur. METHODS Sixteen adult male New Zealand rabbits were used in this study. A bone defect was created in each animal's right and left femur, and a dental implant was placed adjacent to the defect. Two graft materials were prepared, one containing the membrane protein and the other not. In two groups, the defects were filled with these materials. In the negative control group (NC, (n:8)), the defects were left empty. A commercial product of biphasic calcium sulfate was used as a positive control material (PC, n = 8). The graft groups were defined as the group with the membrane protein (MP+, (n:8)), and without the membrane protein (MP-, n:8). The animals were euthanized at the 12th week after surgery. The samples were investigated using histology, histomorphometry, and micro-computed tomography. Data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's tests (p = 0.05). RESULTS Both the PC and MP+ groups had similar newly formed bone areas, and the mean values of these groups were significantly (p < 0.05) higher than those of the MP- and NC groups. The PC group had the highest amount of unresorbed material, while the MP- group had the lowest amount of unresorbed material. The bone-implant contact (BIC) scores of the PC and MP+ groups were significantly higher (p < 0.05) than that of the NC group. The connective tissue area of the PC group was the lowest, which was significantly lower than the other groups (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The grafts produced are highly biocompatible and also showed osteoproductivity. Their cost-effectiveness and osteoproductive activity require further investigation.

Abstract
Biomaterial-based approaches for bone regeneration seek to explore alternative strategies to repair non-healing fractures and critical-sized bone defects. Fracture non-union occurs due to a number of factors resulting in the formation of bone defects. Rigorous evaluation of the biomaterials in relevant models and assessment of their potential to translate towards clinical use is vital. Large animal experimentation can be used to model fracture non-union while scaling-up materials for clinical use. Growth factors modulate cell phenotype, behaviour and initiate signalling pathways leading to changes in matrix deposition and tissue formation. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) is a potent osteogenic growth factor, with a rapid clearance time in vivo necessitating clinical use at a high dose, with potential deleterious side-effects. The current studies have examined the potential for Laponite® nanoclay coated poly(caprolactone) trimethacrylate (PCL-TMA900) scaffolds to bind BMP-2 for enhanced osteoinduction in a large animal critical-sized bone defect. An ovine femoral condyle defect model confirmed PCL-TMA900 scaffolds coated with Laponite®/BMP-2 produced significant bone formation compared to the uncoated PCL-TMA 900 scaffold in vivo, assessed by micro-computed tomography (μCT) and histology. This indicated the ability of Laponite® to deliver the bioactive BMP-2 on the PCL-TMA900 scaffold. Bone formed around the Laponite®/BMP-2 coated PCL-TMA900 scaffold, with no erroneous bone formation observed away from the scaffold material confirming localisation of BMP-2 delivery. The current studies demonstrate the ability of a nanoclay to localise and deliver bioactive BMP-2 within a tailored octet-truss scaffold for efficacious bone defect repair in a large animal model with significant implications for translation to the clinic.

Abstract
To alleviate skull defects and enhance the biological activity of taxifolin, this study utilized the thin-film dispersion method to prepare paclitaxel liposomes (TL). Thiolated chitosan (CSSH)-modified TL (CTL) was synthesized through charge interactions. Injectable hydrogels (BLG) were then prepared as hydrogel scaffolds loaded with TAX (TG), TL (TLG), and CTL (CTLG) using a Schiff base reaction involving oxidized dextran and carboxymethyl chitosan. The study investigated the bone reparative properties of CTLG through molecular docking, western blot techniques, and transcriptome analysis. The particle sizes of CTL were measured at 248.90 ± 14.03 nm, respectively, with zeta potentials of +36.68 ± 5.43 mV, respectively. CTLG showed excellent antioxidant capacity in vitro. It also has a good inhibitory effect on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, with inhibition rates of 93.88 ± 1.59 % and 88.56 ± 2.83 % respectively. The results of 5-ethynyl-2 '-deoxyuridine staining, alkaline phosphatase staining and alizarin red staining showed that CTLG also had the potential to promote the proliferation and differentiation of mouse embryonic osteoblasts (MC3T3-E1). The study revealed that CTLG enhances the expression of osteogenic proteins by regulating the Wnt signaling pathway, shedding light on the potential application of TAX and bone regeneration mechanisms.

Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:7746. [PMID: 39062989 PMCID: PMC11277074 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25147746] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2024] [Revised: 07/04/2024] [Accepted: 07/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Periodontitis is a serious form of oral gum inflammation with recession of gingival soft tissue, destruction of the periodontal ligament, and absorption of alveolar bone. Management of periodontal tissue and bone destruction, along with the restoration of functionality and structural integrity, is not possible with conventional clinical therapy alone. Guided bone and tissue regeneration therapy employs an occlusive biodegradable barrier membrane and graft biomaterials to guide the formation of alveolar bone and tissues for periodontal restoration and regeneration. Amongst several grafting approaches, alloplastic grafts/biomaterials, either derived from natural sources, synthesization, or a combination of both, offer a wide variety of resources tailored to multiple needs. Examining several pertinent scientific databases (Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library) provided the foundation to cover the literature on synthetic graft materials and membranes, devoted to achieving periodontal tissue and bone regeneration. This discussion proceeds by highlighting potential grafting and barrier biomaterials, their characteristics, efficiency, regenerative ability, therapy outcomes, and advancements in periodontal guided regeneration therapy. Marketed and standardized quality products made of grafts and membrane biomaterials have been documented in this work. Conclusively, this paper illustrates the challenges, risk factors, and combination of biomaterials and drug delivery systems with which to reconstruct the hierarchical periodontium.

Abstract
The intricate nature of oral-maxillofacial structure and function, coupled with the dynamic oral bacterial environment, presents formidable obstacles in addressing the repair and regeneration of oral-maxillofacial bone defects. Numerous characteristics should be noticed in oral-maxillofacial bone repair, such as irregular morphology of bone defects, homeostasis between hosts and microorganisms in the oral cavity and complex periodontal structures that facilitate epithelial ingrowth. Therefore, oral-maxillofacial bone repair necessitates restoration materials that adhere to stringent and specific demands. This review starts with exploring these particular requirements by introducing the particular characteristics of oral-maxillofacial bones and then summarizes the classifications of current bone repair materials in respect of composition and structure. Additionally, we discuss the modifications in current bone repair materials including improving mechanical properties, optimizing surface topography and pore structure and adding bioactive components such as elements, compounds, cells and their derivatives. Ultimately, we organize a range of potential optimization strategies and future perspectives for enhancing oral-maxillofacial bone repair materials, including physical environment manipulation, oral microbial homeostasis modulation, osteo-immune regulation, smart stimuli-responsive strategies and multifaceted approach for poly-pathic treatment, in the hope of providing some insights for researchers in this field. In summary, this review analyzes the complex demands of oral-maxillofacial bone repair, especially for periodontal and alveolar bone, concludes multifaceted strategies for corresponding biomaterials and aims to inspire future research in the pursuit of more effective treatment outcomes.

An injectable and coagulation-independent Tetra-PEG hydrogel bioadhesive for post-extraction hemostasis and alveolar bone regeneration. Bioact Mater 2024; 37:106-118. [PMID: 39022616 PMCID: PMC11252469 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2024.03.015] [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: 01/16/2024] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Effective control of post-extraction hemorrhage and alveolar bone resorption is critical for successful extraction socket treatment, which remains an unmet clinical challenge. Herein, an injectable Tetra-PEG hydrogel that possesses rapid gelation, firm tissue adhesion, high mechanical strength, suitable degradability, and excellent biocompatibility is developed as a sutureless and coagulation-independent bioadhesive for the management of extraction sockets. Our results demonstrate that the rapid and robust adhesive sealing of the extraction socket by the Tetra-PEG hydrogel can provide reliable protection for the underlying wound and stabilize blood clots to facilitate tissue healing. In vivo experiments using an anticoagulated rat tooth extraction model show that the hydrogel significantly outperformed clinically used cotton and gelatin sponge in hemostatic efficacy, wound closure, alveolar ridge preservation, and in situ alveolar bone regeneration. Histomorphological evaluations reveal the mechanisms for accelerated bone repair through suppressed long-term inflammation, elevated collagen deposition, higher osteoblast activity, and enhanced angiogenesis. Together, our study highlights the clinical potential of the developed injectable Tetra-PEG hydrogel for treating anticoagulant-related post-extraction hemorrhage and improving socket healing.

Abstract
Over the last decades, a variety of biomaterials, ranging from synthetic products to autologous and heterologous grafts, have been recommended to conserve and regenerate bone tissue after tooth extraction. We conducted a biochemical study on ground extracted teeth that aimed to evaluate the osteoinductive and osteoconductive potential of dentin by assessing the releases of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP-2), osteocalcin (OC) and osteonectin (ON) over time (24 h, 10 days and 28 days). Twenty-six patients, who required the extraction of nonrestorable teeth, were enrolled in the study according to the inclusion criteria, as follows: thirteen young patients 18 to 49 years of age (UNDER 50), and thirteen patients of 50 to 70 years (OVER 50); a total of twenty-six teeth were extracted, ground and analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). All ground teeth released BMP-2, OC and ON at each time point; no differences were observed between the UNDER-50 and OVER-50 patients. The results of the study support the use of autologous dentin as osteoinductive material for bone regeneration procedures, irrespective of patients' ages.

Abstract
An injectable hydrogel formulation is developed utilizing low- and high-molecular-weight chitosan (LCH and HCH) incorporated with curcumin and α-tocopherol-loaded liposomes (Lip/Cur+Toc). Cur and Toc releases are delayed within the hydrogels. The injectability of hydrogels is proved via rheological analyses. In vitro studies are conducted using human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) and human gingival fibroblasts (hGFs) to examine the biological performance of the hydrogels toward endodontics and periodontics, respectively. The viability of hDPSCs treated with the hydrogels with Lip/Cur+Toc is the highest till day 14, compared to the neat hydrogels. During odontogenic differentiation tests, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) enzyme activity of hDPSCs is induced in the Cur-containing groups. Biomineralization is enhanced mostly with Lip/Cur+Toc incorporation. The viability of hGFs is the highest in HCH combined with Lip/Cur+Toc while wound healing occurs almost 100% in both (Lip/Cur+Toc@LCH and Lip/Cur+Toc@HCH) after 2 days. Antioxidant activity of Lip/Cur+Toc@LCH on hGFs is significantly the highest among the groups. Antimicrobial tests demonstrate that Lip/Cur+Toc@LCH is more effective against Escherichia coli whereas so is Lip/Cur+Toc@HCH against Staphylococcus aureus. The antimicrobial mechanism of the hydrogels is investigated for the first time through various computational models. LCH and HCH loaded with Lip/Cur+Toc are promising candidates with multi-functional features for endodontics and periodontics.

Mater Today Bio 2024; 26:101100. [PMID: 38854953 PMCID: PMC11157282 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2024.101100] [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: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives Calcium phosphate-based biomaterials (CaP) are the most widely used biomaterials to enhance bone regeneration in the treatment of alveolar bone deficiencies, cranio-maxillofacial and periodontal infrabony defects, with positive preclinical and clinical results reported. This systematic review aimed to assess the influence of the physicochemical properties of CaP biomaterials on the performance of bone regeneration in preclinical animal models. Methods The PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science databases were searched to retrieve the preclinical studies investigating physicochemical characteristics of CaP biomaterials. The studies were screened for inclusion based on intervention (physicochemical characterization and in vivo evaluation) and reported measurable outcomes. Results A total of 1532 articles were retrieved and 58 studies were ultimately included in the systematic review. A wide range of physicochemical characteristics of CaP biomaterials was found to be assessed in the included studies. Despite a high degree of heterogeneity, the meta-analysis was performed on 39 studies and evidenced significant effects of biomaterial characteristics on their bone regeneration outcomes. The study specifically showed that macropore size, Ca/P ratio, and compressive strength exerted significant influence on the formation of newly regenerated bone. Moreover, factors such as particle size, Ca/P ratio, and surface area were found to impact bone-to-material contact during the regeneration process. In terms of biodegradability, the amount of residual graft was determined by macropore size, particle size, and compressive strength. Conclusion The systematic review showed that the physicochemical characteristics of CaP biomaterials are highly determining for scaffold's performance, emphasizing its usefulness in designing the next generation of bone scaffolds to target higher rates of regeneration.

Abstract
Critical size bone defects represent a significant challenge worldwide, often leading to persistent pain and physical disability that profoundly impact patients' quality of life and mental well-being. To address the intricate and complex repair processes involved in these defects, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing and revealed notable shifts in cellular populations within regenerative tissue. Specifically, we observed a decrease in progenitor lineage cells and endothelial cells, coupled with an increase in fibrotic lineage cells and pro-inflammatory cells within regenerative tissue. Furthermore, our analysis of differentially expressed genes and associated signaling pathway at the single-cell level highlighted impaired angiogenesis as a central pathway in critical size bone defects, notably influenced by reduction of Spp1 and Cxcl12 expression. This deficiency was particularly pronounced in progenitor lineage cells and myeloid lineage cells, underscoring its significance in the regeneration process. In response to these findings, we developed an innovative approach to enhance bone regeneration in critical size bone defects. Our fabrication process involves the integration of electrospun PCL fibers with electrosprayed PLGA microspheres carrying Spp1 and Cxcl12. This design allows for the gradual release of Spp1 and Cxcl12 in vitro and in vivo. To evaluate the efficacy of our approach, we locally applied PCL scaffolds loaded with Spp1 and Cxcl12 in a murine model of critical size bone defects. Our results demonstrated restored angiogenesis, accelerated bone regeneration, alleviated pain responses and improved mobility in treated mice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Regenerative medicine emerged as a promising strategy for addressing bone defects, with several bone grafts currently being used, including autografts, allografts, xenografts and alloplasts. Calcium-based biomaterials (CaXs), a well-known class of synthetic materials, have demonstrated good biological properties and are being investigated for their potential to facilitate bone regeneration. This systematic review evaluates the current clinical applications of CaXs in dentistry for bone regeneration. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION A comprehensive search was conducted to collect information about CaXs and their applications in the dental field over the last ten years. The search was limited to relevant articles published in peer-reviewed journals. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS A total of 72 articles were included in this scoping review, with eight studies related to periodontology, 63 in implantology and three in maxillofacial surgery respectively. The findings suggest that CaXs hold promise as an alternative intervention for minor bone regeneration in dentistry. CONCLUSIONS Calcium-based biomaterials have shown potential as a viable option for bone regeneration in dentistry. Further research is warranted to fully understand their efficacy and safety in larger bone defects. CaXs represent an exciting avenue for researchers and clinicians to explore in their ongoing efforts to advance regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Regenerating bone in the oral and maxillofacial region is clinically challenging due to the complicated osteogenic environment and the limitation of existing bone graft materials. Constructing bone graft materials with controlled degradation and stable mechanical properties in a physiological environment is of utmost importance. In this study, we used silk fibroin (SF) and polyglycolic acid (PGA) to fabricate a coaxial PGA-SF fibrous scaffold (PGA-SF-FS) to meet demands for bone grafts. The SF shell exerted excellent osteogenic activity while protecting PGA from rapid degradation and the PGA core equipped scaffold with excellent tenacity. The experiments related to biocompatibility and osteogenesis (e.g., cell attachment, proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization) demonstrated the superior ability of PGA-SF-FS to improve cell growth and osteogenic differentiation. Furthermore, in vivo testing using Sprague-Dawley rat cranial defect model showed that PGA-SF-FS accelerates bone regeneration as the implantation time increases, and its stepwise degradation helps to match the remodeling kinetics of the host bone tissue. Besides, immunohistochemical staining of CD31 and Col-1 confirmed the ability of PGA-SF-FS to enhance revascularization and osteogenesis response. Our results suggest that PGA-SF-FS fully utilizing the advantages of both components, exhibites stepwise degradation and superior tenacity in wetting regime, making it a promising candidate in the treatment of bone defects.

Abstract
Background The use of bone graft materials has significantly increased. Given the inherent variations in structure and functionality between different grafting materials, this evaluated and compared the physical attributes of antler and bovine femur bone substitutes. Methods In the present in vitro investigation, the surface morphological architecture of the two bone substitutes with different origins was assessed through scanning electron microscopy. Furthermore, the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) technique was employed to measure the porosity, specific surface area (SSA), and pore morphology. Results Scanning electron microscopy observations indicated that the surface of the bovine particles appeared smoother, while the antler particles exhibited a rougher surface texture. The BET analysis revealed that both samples exhibited identical pore morphology. The SSA was 15.974 m2/g in the antler particles compared with 18.404 m2/g in the bovine sample. The total porosity volume in the antler and bovine femur bone substitutes were 0.2172 cm3/g and 0.2918 cm3/g, respectively. Additionally, the antler particles had a porosity percentage of 40%, whereas the bovine femur bone substitute showed a porosity percentage of 43.5%. Conclusion Based on the results of this study, it seems that the two samples of bone grafting materials have comparable physical structures.

Abstract
Introduction Given the ensuing increase in bone and periodontal diseases and defects, de novo bone repair and/or regeneration strategies are constantly undergoing-development alongside advances in orthopedic, oro-dental and cranio-maxillo-facial technologies and improvements in bio-/nano-materials. Indeed, there is a remarkably growing need for new oro-dental functional biomaterials that can help recreate soft and hard tissues and restore function and aesthetics of teeth/ dentition and surrounding tissues. In bone tissue engineering, HydroxyApatite minerals (HAp), the most stable CaP/Calcium Phosphate bioceramic and a widely-used material as a bone graft substitute, have been extensively studied for regenerative medicine and dentistry applications, including clinical use. Yet, limitations and challenges owing principally to its bio-mechanical strength, exist and therefore, research and innovation efforts continue to pursue enhancing its bio-effects, particularly at the nano-scale. Methods Herein, we report on the physico-chemical properties of a novel nanoHydroxyApatite material obtained from the backbone of Salmon fish (patent-pending); an abundant and promising yet under-explored alternative HAp source. Briefly, our nanoS-HAp obtained via a modified and innovative alkaline hydrolysis-calcination process was characterized by X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, spectroscopy, and a cell viability assay. Results and Discussion When compared to control HAp (synthetic, human, bovine or porcine), our nanoS-HAp demonstrated attractive characteristics, a promising biomaterial candidate for use in bone tissue engineering, and beyond.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of IL-10 on the phenotype polarization of macrophages and osteogenesis in diabetes mellitus type 2 (T2DM) rat jaw defects. METHODS Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) were chosen to induce the polarization of macrophages. In vitro assessment included wound-healing assay, western blotting, and alizarin red staining after co-culture of the bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and induced macrophages. For in vivo study, IL-10 was loaded on GelMA-Heparin and applied to bone defects of the alveolar ridge in diabetic rats, while Bio-Oss Collagen, simple GelMA-Heparin, and blank control groups were set for contrast experiment. The mandibles of rats were processed for micro-computed tomography, histology, and immunohistochemistry 1 week and 4 weeks after the operation. RESULTS IL-10 induced expression of arginase 1, TGF-β1, EGR2, and Mannose Receptor (CD206), whereas LPS induced expression of iNOS, TNF-α, IL-6, CD80. The BMSCs co-cultured with macrophages induced by IL-10 showed increased migration, osteogenic differentiation, and mineralization in vitro. Notably, the IL-10-laden GelMA-Heparin group showed quicker new bone formation and a higher M2/M1 ratio of macrophages in the jawbone defect area compared with the control groups. CONCLUSIONS IL-10 can stably induce macrophages to M2 type, thereby influencing BMSCs and improving the osteogenesis of jaw bone defects.

Abstract
Obtaining rapid mineralisation is a challenge in current bone graft materials, which has been attributed to the difficulty of guiding the biological processes towards osteogenesis. Amelogenin, a key protein in enamel formation, inspired the design of two intrinsically disordered peptides (P2 and P6) that enhance in vivo bone formation, but the process is not fully understood. In this study, we have elucidated the mechanism by which these peptides induce improved mineralisation. Our molecular dynamics analysis demonstrated that in an aqueous environment, P2 and P6 fold to interact with the surrounding Ca2+, PO43- and OH- ions, which can lead to apatite nucleation. Although P2 has a less stable backbone, it folds to a stable structure that allows for the nucleation of larger calcium phosphate aggregates than P6. These results were validated experimentally in a concentrated simulated body fluid solution, where the peptide solutions accelerated the mineralisation process compared to the control and yielded mineral structures mimicking the amorphous calcium phosphate crystals that can be found in lamella bone. A pH drop for the peptide groups suggests depletion of calcium and phosphate, a prerequisite for intrinsic osteoinduction, while S/TEM and SEM suggested that the peptide regulated the mineral nucleation into lamella flakes. Evidently, the peptides accelerate and guide mineral formation, elucidating the mechanism for how these peptides can improve the efficacy of P2 or P6 containing devices for bone regeneration. The work also demonstrates how experimental mineralisation study coupled with molecular dynamics is a valid method for understanding and predicting in vivo performance prior to animal trials.

Abstract
The main goal of bone tissue engineering research is to replace the allogenic and autologous bone graft substitutes that can promote bone repair. Owing to excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity, hydroxyapatite is in extensive research and high demand for both medical and non-medical applications. Although various methods have been developed for the synthesis of hydroxyapatite, in the present study we have shown the use of nanosecond laser energy in the wet precipitation method of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAP) synthesis without using ammonium solution or any other chemicals for pH maintenance. Here, the present study aimed to fabricate the nanohydroxyapatite using a nanosecond laser. The X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy have confirmed the hydroxyapatite formation under laser irradiation in less time without aging. A transmission electron microscopy confirmed the nano size of synthesized nHAP, which is comparable to conventional nHAP. The length and width of the laser-assisted nHAP were found to be in the range of 50-200 nm and 15-20 nm, respectively, at various laser parameters. The crystallite size obtained by Debye Scherrer formulae was found to be in the range of ∼ 16-36 nm. In addition, laser-assisted nHAP based composite cryogel (nanohydroxyapatite/gelatin/collagen I) was synthesized and impregnated with bioactive molecules (bone morphogenic protein and zoledronic acid) that demonstrated significant osteogenic potential both in vitro in cell experiment and in vivo rat muscle pouch model (abdomen and tibia muscles). Dual-energy X-ray analysis, micro-CT, and histological analysis confirmed ectopic bone regeneration. Micro-CT based histomorphometry showed a higher amount (more than 10-fold) of mineralization for animal groups implanted with composite cryogels loaded with bioactive molecules compared to only composite cryogels groups. Our findings thus demonstrate a controlled and rapid synthetic method for the synthesis of nHAP with various physical, chemical, and biological properties exhibited as comparable to conventionally synthesized nHAP.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a dysbiosis-driven inflammatory disease affecting the tooth-supporting tissues, characterized by their progressive resorption, which can ultimately lead to tooth loss. A step-wise therapeutic approach is employed for periodontitis. After an initial behavioral and non-surgical phase, intra-bony or furcation defects may be amenable to regenerative procedures. This review discusses the regenerative technologies employed for periodontal regeneration, highlighting the current limitations and future research areas. The search, performed on the MEDLINE database, has identified the available biomaterials, including biologicals (autologous platelet concentrates, hydrogels), bone grafts (pure or putty), and membranes. Biologicals and bone grafts have been critically analyzed in terms of composition, mechanism of action, and clinical applications. Although a certain degree of periodontal regeneration is predictable in intra-bony and class II furcation defects, complete defect closure is hardly achieved. Moreover, treating class III furcation defects remains challenging. The key properties required for functional regeneration are discussed, and none of the commercially available biomaterials possess all the ideal characteristics. Therefore, research is needed to promote the advancement of more effective and targeted regenerative therapies for periodontitis. Lastly, improving the design and reporting of clinical studies is suggested by strictly adhering to the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) 2010 statement.

Abstract
This study investigates the effect of scaffold architecture on bone regeneration, focusing on 3D-printed polylactic acid-bioceramic calcium phosphate (PLA-bioCaP) composite scaffolds in rabbit femoral condyle critical defects. We explored two distinct scaffold designs to assess their influence on bone healing and scaffold performance. Structures with alternate (0°/90°) and helical (0°/45°/90°/135°/180°) laydown patterns were manufactured with a 3D printer using a fused deposition modeling technique. The scaffolds were meticulously characterized for pore size, strut thickness, porosity, pore accessibility, and mechanical properties. The in vivo efficacy of these scaffolds was evaluated using a femoral condyle critical defect model in eight skeletally mature New Zealand White rabbits. Then, the results were analyzed micro-tomographically, histologically, and histomorphometrically. Our findings indicate that both scaffold architectures are biocompatible and support bone formation. The helical scaffolds, characterized by larger pore sizes and higher porosity, demonstrated significantly greater bone regeneration than the alternate structures. However, their lower mechanical strength presented limitations for use in load-bearing sites.

Abstract
The treatment of bone tissue defects continues to be a complex medical issue. Recently, three-dimensional (3D)-printed scaffold technology for bone tissue engineering (BTE) has emerged as an important therapeutic approach for bone defect repair. Despite the potential of BTE scaffolds to contribute to long-term bone reconstruction, there are certain challenges associated with it including the impediment of bone growth within the scaffolds and vascular infiltration. These difficulties can be resolved by using scaffold structural modification strategies that can effectively guide bone regeneration. This study involved the preparation of biphasic calcium phosphate spherical hollow structural scaffolds (SHSS) with varying pore sizes using 3D printing (photopolymerized via digital light processing). The chemical compositions, microscopic morphologies, mechanical properties, biocompatibilities, osteogenic properties, and impact on repairing critical-sized bone defects of SHSS were assessed through characterization analyses, in vitro cytological assays, and in vivo biological experiments. The results revealed the biomimetic properties of SHSS and their favorable biocompatibility. The scaffolds stimulated cell adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, and migration and facilitated the expression of osteogenic genes and proteins, including Col-1, OCN, and OPN. Furthermore, they could effectively repair a critical-sized bone defect in a rabbit femoral condyle by establishing an osteogenic platform and guiding bone regeneration in the defect region. This innovative strategy presents a novel therapeutic approach for assessing critical-sized bone defects.

Direct inkjet writing of polylactic acid/β-tricalcium phosphate composites for bone tissue regeneration: A proof-of-concept study. J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2024; 112:e35402. [PMID: 38520704 PMCID: PMC11003728 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.35402] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
There is an ever-evolving need of customized, anatomic-specific grafting materials for bone regeneration. More specifically, biocompatible and osteoconductive materials, that may be configured dynamically to fit and fill defects, through the application of an external stimulus. The objective of this study was to establish a basis for the development of direct inkjet writing (DIW)-based shape memory polymer-ceramic composites for bone tissue regeneration applications and to establish material behavior under thermomechanical loading. Polymer-ceramic (polylactic acid [PLA]/β-tricalcium phosphate [β-TCP]) colloidal gels were prepared of different w/w ratios (90/10, 80/20, 70/30, 60/40, and 50/50) through polymer dissolution in acetone (15% w/v). Cytocompatibility was analyzed through Presto Blue assays. Rheological properties of the colloidal gels were measured to determine shear-thinning capabilities. Gels were then extruded through a custom-built DIW printer. Space filling constructs of the gels were printed and subjected to thermomechanical characterization to measure shape fixity (Rf) and shape recovery (Rr) ratios through five successive shape memory cycles. The polymer-ceramic composite gels exhibited shear-thinning capabilities for extrusion through a nozzle for DIW. A significant increase in cellular viability was observed with the addition of β-TCP particles within the polymer matrix relative to pure PLA. Shape memory effect in the printed constructs was repeatable up to 4 cycles followed by permanent deformation. While further research on scaffold macro-/micro-geometries, and engineered porosities are warranted, this proof-of-concept study suggested suitability of this polymer-ceramic material and the DIW 3D printing workflow for the production of customized, patient specific constructs for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Dimethyloxalylglycine (DMOG) has been found to stimulate osteogenesis and angiogenesis of stem cells, promoting neo-angiogenesis in bone tissue regeneration. In this review, we conducted a comprehensive search of the literature to investigate the effects of DMOG on osteogenesis and bone regeneration. We screened the studies based on specific inclusion criteria and extracted relevant information from both in vitro and in vivo experiments. The risk of bias in animal studies was evaluated using the SYRCLE tool. Out of the 174 studies retrieved, 34 studies met the inclusion criteria (34 studies were analyzed in vitro and 20 studies were analyzed in vivo). The findings of the included studies revealed that DMOG stimulated stem cells' differentiation toward osteogenic, angiogenic, and chondrogenic lineages, leading to vascularized bone and cartilage regeneration. Addtionally, DMOG demonstrated therapeutic effects on bone loss caused by bone-related diseases. However, the culture environment in vitro is notably distinct from that in vivo, and the animal models used in vivo experiments differ significantly from humans. In summary, DMOG has the ability to enhance the osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation potential of stem cells, thereby improving bone regeneration in cases of bone defects. This highlights DMOG as a potential focus for research in the field of bone tissue regeneration engineering.

Abstract
Biofabrication techniques allow for the construction of biocompatible and biofunctional structures composed from biomaterials, cells and biomolecules. Bioprinting is an emerging 3D printing method which utilizes biomaterial-based mixtures with cells and other biological constituents into printable suspensions known as bioinks. Coupled with automated design protocols and based on different modes for droplet deposition, 3D bioprinters are able to fabricate hydrogel-based objects with specific architecture and geometrical properties, providing the necessary environment that promotes cell growth and directs cell differentiation towards application-related lineages. For the preparation of such bioinks, various water-soluble biomaterials have been employed, including natural and synthetic biopolymers, and inorganic materials. Bioprinted constructs are considered to be one of the most promising avenues in regenerative medicine due to their native organ biomimicry. For a successful application, the bioprinted constructs should meet particular criteria such as optimal biological response, mechanical properties similar to the target tissue, high levels of reproducibility and printing fidelity, but also increased upscaling capability. In this review, we highlight the most recent advances in bioprinting, focusing on the regeneration of various tissues including bone, cartilage, cardiovascular, neural, skin and other organs such as liver, kidney, pancreas and lungs. We discuss the rapidly developing co-culture bioprinting systems used to resemble the complexity of tissues and organs and the crosstalk between various cell populations towards regeneration. Moreover, we report on the basic physical principles governing 3D bioprinting, and the ideal bioink properties based on the biomaterials' regenerative potential. We examine and critically discuss the present status of 3D bioprinting regarding its applicability and current limitations that need to be overcome to establish it at the forefront of artificial organ production and transplantation.

Abstract
Introduction This study aimed to identify a collagen-coating method that does not affect the physicochemical properties of bone graft material. Based on this, we developed a collagen-coated porcine xenograft and applied it to dogs to validate its effectiveness. Methods Xenografts and collagen were derived from porcine, and the collagen coating was performed through N-ethyl-N'-(3- (dimethylamino)propyl) carbodiimide/N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) activation. The physicochemical characteristics of the developed bone graft material were verified through field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), brunauer emmett teller (BET), attenuated total reflectance-fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), and water absorption test. Subsequently, the biocompatibility and bone healing effects were assessed using a rat calvarial defect model. Results The physicochemical test results confirmed that collagen coating increased bone graft materials' surface roughness and fluid absorption but did not affect their porous structure. In vivo evaluations revealed that collagen coating had no adverse impact on the bone healing effect of bone graft materials. After confirming the biocompatibility and effectiveness, we applied the bone graft materials in two orthopedic cases and one dental case. Notably, successful fracture healing was observed in both orthopedic cases. In the dental case, successful bone regeneration was achieved without any loss of alveolar bone. Discussion This study demonstrated that porcine bone graft material promotes bone healing in dogs with its hemostatic and cohesive effects resulting from the collagen coating. Bone graft materials with enhanced biocompatibility through collagen coating are expected to be widely used in veterinary clinical practice.

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
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is commonly used as a bone substitute material, but it lacks mechanical strength when compared to native bone tissues. To improve the efficacy of HA as a bone substitute by improving the mechanical strength and cell growth attributes, porous composite scaffolds of HA and titania (HA-TiO2 ) were fabricated through a freeze-casting process. Three different compositions by weight percent, 25-75 HA-TiO2 , 50-50 HA-TiO2 , and 75-25 HA-TiO2 , were custom-made for testing. After sintering at 1250°C, these composite scaffolds exhibited improved mechanical properties compared to porous HA scaffolds. Substrate mixing was observed, which helped reduce crystal size and introduced new phases such as β-TCP and CaTiO3 , which also led to improved mechanical properties. The composition of 50-50 HA-TiO2 had the highest ultimate compressive strength of 3.12 ± 0.36 MPa and elastic modulus 63.29 ± 28.75 MPa. Human osteoblast cell proliferation assay also increased on all three different compositions when compared to porous HA at 14 days. These results highlight the potential of freeze casting composites for the fabrication of bone substitutes, which provide enhanced mechanical strength and biocompatibility while maintaining porosity.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common diseases of the skeleton. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as key players in OA pathogenesis. This work sets out to determine the function of lncRNA MALAT1 in OA and the mechanisms by which it does so. Mesenchymal stem cells isolated from the human synovial membrane are called hSMSCs. The hSMSCs' surface markers were studied using flow cytometry. To determine whether or not hSMSC might differentiate, researchers used a number of different culture settings and labeling techniques. The expression levels of associated genes and proteins were determined using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), western blotting (WB), and immunostaining. A dual luciferase reporter experiment and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) test demonstrated the direct association between miR-212-5p and MALAT1 or MyD88. MALAT1 was downregulated during the chondrogenic differentiation of hSMSCs, and underexpression of MALAT1 promotes chondrogenesis in hSMSCs. Using dual luciferase reporter and RIP assays facilitated the identification of MALAT1 as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) that sequesters miR-212-5p. Additionally, the expression of MYD88 was regulated by MALAT1 through direct binding with miR-212-5p. Significantly, the effects of MALAT1 on the chondrogenic differentiation of hSMSCs were counteracted by miR-212-5p/MYD88. Furthermore, our in vivo investigation revealed that the inhibition of MALAT1 mitigated osteoarthritis progression in rat models. In conclusion, the promotion of chondrogenic differentiation in hSMSCs and the protective effect on cartilage tissue in OA can be achieved by suppressing MALAT1, which regulates the miR-212-5p/MyD88 axis.

Abstract
The rehabilitation of alveolar bone defects of moderate to severe size is often challenging. Currently, the therapeutic approaches used include, among others, the guided bone regeneration technique combined with various bone grafts. Although these techniques are widely applied, several limitations and complications have been reported such as morbidity, suboptimal graft/membrane resorption rate, low structural integrity, and dimensional stability. Thus, the development of biomimetic scaffolds with tailor-made characteristics that can modulate cell and tissue interaction may be a promising tool. This article presents a critical consideration in scaffold's design and development while also providing information on various fabrication methods of these nanosystems. Their utilization as delivery systems will also be mentioned.

Abstract
The clinical standard therapy for large bone defects, typically addressed through autograft or allograft donor tissue, faces significant limitations. Tissue engineering offers a promising alternative strategy for the regeneration of substantial bone lesions. In this study, we harnessed poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based hydrogels, optimizing critical parameters including stiffness, incorporation of arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) cell adhesion motifs, degradability, and the release of BMP2 to promote bone formation. In vitro we demonstrated that human bone marrow derived stromal cell (hBMSC) proliferation and spreading strongly correlates with hydrogel stiffness and adhesion to RGD peptide motifs. Moreover, the incorporation of the osteogenic growth factor BMP2 into the hydrogels enabled sustained release, effectively inducing bone regeneration in encapsulated progenitor cells. When used in vivo to treat calvarial defects in rats, we showed that hydrogels of low and intermediate stiffness optimally facilitated cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation promoting the efficient repair of bone defects. Our comprehensive in vitro and in vivo findings collectively suggest that the developed hydrogels hold significant promise for clinical translation for bone repair and regeneration by delivering sustained and controlled stimuli from active signaling molecules.

Pyo SW, Paik JW, Lee DN, Seo YW, Park JY, Kim S, Choi SH. Comparative Analysis of Bone Regeneration According to Particle Type and Barrier Membrane for Octacalcium Phosphate Grafted into Rabbit Calvarial Defects. Bioengineering (Basel) 2024; 11:215. [PMID: 38534489 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering11030215] [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: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024] Open
Abstract
This animal study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of new bone formation and volume maintenance according to the particle type and the collagen membrane function for grafted octacalcium phosphate (OCP) in rabbit calvarial defects. The synthetic bone substitutes were prepared in powder form with 90% OCP and granular form with 76% OCP, respectively. The calvarial defects were divided into four groups according to the particle type and the membrane application. All specimens were acquired 2 weeks (n = 5) and 8 weeks (n = 5) after surgery. According to the micro-CT results, the new bone volume increased at 2 weeks in the 76% OCP groups compared to the 90% OCP groups, and the bone volume ratio was significantly lower in the 90% OCP group after 2 weeks. The histomorphometric analysis results indicated that the new bone area and its ratio in all experimental groups were increased at 8 weeks except for the group with 90% OCP without a membrane. Furthermore, the residual bone graft area and its ratio in the 90% OCP groups were decreased at 8 weeks. In conclusion, all types of OCP could be applied as biocompatible bone graft materials regardless of its density and membrane application. Neither the OCP concentration nor the membrane application had a significant effect on new bone formation in the defect area, but the higher the OCP concentration, the less graft volume maintenance was needed.

Abstract
Three-dimensional bioprinting is an emerging technology that has high potential application in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Increasing advancement and improvement in the decellularization process have led to an increase in the demand for using a decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) to fabricate tissue engineered products. Decellularization is the process of retaining the extracellular matrix (ECM) while the cellular components are completely removed to harvest the ECM for the regeneration of various tissues and across different sources. Post decellularization of tissues and organs, they act as natural biomaterials to provide the biochemical and structural support to establish cell communication. Selection of an effective method for decellularization is crucial, and various factors like tissue density, geometric organization, and ECM composition affect the regenerative potential which has an impact on the end product. The dECM is a versatile material which is added as an important ingredient to formulate the bioink component for constructing tissue and organs for various significant studies. Bioink consisting of dECM from various sources is used to generate tissue-specific bioink that is unique and to mimic different biometric microenvironments. At present, there are many different techniques applied for decellularization, and the process is not standardized and regulated due to broad application. This review aims to provide an overview of different decellularization procedures, and we also emphasize the different dECM-derived bioinks present in the current global market and the major clinical outcomes. We have also highlighted an overview of benefits and limitations of different decellularization methods and various characteristic validations of decellularization and dECM-derived bioinks.

Abstract
Bone defects represent an everyday challenge for clinicians who work in the fields of orthopedic surgery, maxillofacial and oral surgery, otorhinolaryngology, and dental implantology. Various bone substitutes have been developed and utilized, according to the needs of bone reconstructive surgery. Carbonate apatite has gained popularity in recent years, due to its excellent tissue behavior and osteoconductive potential. This systematic review aims to evaluate the role of carbonate apatite in bone reconstructive surgery and tissue engineering, analyze its advantages and limitations, and suggest further directions for research and development. The Web of Science, PubMed, and Scopus electronic databases were searched for relevant review articles, published from January 2014 to 21 July 2023. The study was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Eighteen studies were included in the present review. The biological properties and medical applications of carbonate apatite (CO3Ap) are discussed and evaluated. The majority of articles demonstrated that CO3Ap has excellent biocompatibility, resorbability, and osteoconductivity. Furthermore, it resembles bone tissue and causes minimal immunological reactions. Therefore, it may be successfully utilized in various medical applications, such as bone substitution, scaffolding, implant coating, drug delivery, and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Bone defects are a significant health problem worldwide. Novel treatment approaches in the tissue engineering field rely on the use of biomaterial scaffolds to stimulate and guide the regeneration of damaged tissue that cannot repair or regrow spontaneously. This work aimed at developing and characterizing new piezoelectric scaffolds to provide electric bio-signals naturally present in bone and vascular tissues. Mixing and extrusion were used to obtain nanocomposites made of polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) as a matrix and barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticles as a filler, at BaTiO3/PHB compositions of 5/95, 10/90, 15/85 and 20/80 (w/w%). The morphological, thermal, mechanical and piezoelectric properties of the nanocomposites were studied. Scanning electron microscopy analysis showed good nanoparticle dispersion within the polymer matrix. Considerable increases in the Young's modulus, compressive strength and the piezoelectric coefficient d31 were observed with increasing BaTiO3 content, with d31 = 37 pm/V in 20/80 (w/w%) BaTiO3/PHB. 3D printing was used to produce porous cubic-shaped scaffolds using a 90° lay-down pattern, with pore size ranging in 0.60-0.77 mm and good mechanical stability. Biodegradation tests conducted for 8 weeks in saline solution at 37 °C showed low mass loss (∼4%) for 3D printed scaffolds. The results obtained in terms of piezoelectric, mechanical and chemical properties of the nanocomposite provide a new promising strategy for vascularized bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
It is known that hydroxyapatite-type calcium phosphate cement (CPC) shows appreciable self-curing properties, but the phase transformation products often lead to slow biodegradation and disappointing osteogenic responses. Herein, we developed an innovative strategy to endow invisible micropore networks, which could tune the microstructures and biodegradation of α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP)-based CPC by gypsum fibers, and the osteogenic capability of the composite cements could be enhanced in vivo. The gypsum fibers were prepared via extruding the gypsum powder/carboxylated chitosan (CC) slurry through a 22G nozzle (410 μm in diameter) and collecting with a calcium salt solution. Then, the CPCs were prepared by mixing the α-TCP powder with gypsum fibers (0-24 wt %) and an aqueous solution to form self-curing cements. The physicochemical characterizations showed that injectability was decreased with an increase in the fiber contents. The μCT reconstruction demonstrated that the gypsum fiber could be distributed in the CPC substrate and produce long-range micropore architectures. In particular, incorporation of gypsum fibers would tune the ion release, produce tunnel-like pore networks in vitro, and promote new bone tissue regeneration in rabbit femoral bone defects in vivo. Appropriate gypsum fibers (16 and 24 wt %) could enhance bone defect repair and cement biodegradation. These results demonstrate that the highly biodegradable cement fibers could mediate the microstructures of conventional CPC biomaterials, and such a bicomponent composite strategy may be beneficial for expanding clinical CPC-based applications.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to produce biocomposites based on chitosan and sodium hyaluronate hydrogels supplemented with bioglasses obtained under different conditions (temperature, time) and to perform an in vitro evaluation of their cytocompatibility using both indirect and direct methods. Furthermore, the release of ions from the composites and the microstructure of the biocomposites before and after incubation in simulated body fluid were assessed. Tests on extracts from bioglasses and hydrogel biocomposites were performed on A549 epithelial cells, while MG63 osteoblast-like cells were tested in direct contact with the developed biomaterials. The immune response induced by the biomaterials was also evaluated. The experiments were carried out on both unstimulated and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) endotoxin-stimulated human peripheral blood cells in the presence of extracts of the biocomposites and their components. Extracts of the materials produced do not exhibit toxic effects on A549 cells, and do not increase the production of proinflammatory cytokines tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL-6) by blood cells in vitro. In direct contact with MG63 osteoblast-like cells, biocomposites containing the reference bioglass and those containing SrO are more cytocompatible than biocomposites with ZnO-doped bioglass. Using two testing approaches, the effects both of the potentially toxic agents released and of the surface of the tested materials on the cell condition were assessed. The results pave the way for the development of highly porous hydrogel-bioglass composite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
We studied the effect of structural properties of deproteinized spongy bone (DSB) on functional activity of adipose tissue mesenchymal stromal cells of (MSC) for the potential use of these materials as components of a combined tissue-engineered construct. The porosity of the structure of DSB samples and the pore size promote MSC adhesion, migration, and proliferation on their surface and in the depth, revealing the architectonics of this bone matrix. The depth of cell penetration into the samples (from 273 to 702 μm) and an increase in the total number of cells (from 302 on day 1 to 1744 on day 7) demonstrated MSC adhesion, migration, and proliferation. The viability of cultured MSC was preserved for up to 7 days. The obtained results prove the possibility of using allogeneic DSB from femoral heads as a bone matrix in tissue-engineered constructs in combination with MSC. Such constructs can be used to efficiently restore the structural and functional integrity of the bone tissue in abnormal processes of various etiopathogenesis associated with the formation of bone defects or bone tissue deficiency.

Abstract
Implant dentistry has evolved to the point that standard implant osseointegration is predictable. This is attributed in part to the advancements in material sciences that have led toward improvements in implant surface technology and characteristics. Nonetheless, there remain several cases where implant therapy fails (specifically at early time points), most commonly attributed to factors affecting bone metabolism. Among these patients, smokers are known to have impaired bone metabolism and thus be subject to higher risks of early implant failure and/or late complications related to the stability of the peri-implant bone and mucosal tissues. Notably, however, emerging data have unveiled other critical factors affecting osseointegration, namely, those related to the metabolism of bone tissues. The aim of this review is to shed light on the effects of implant-related factors, like implant surface or titanium particle release; surgical-related factors, like osseodensification or implanted biomaterials; various drugs, like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, proton pump inhibitors, anti-hypertensives, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication, and statins, and host-related factors, like smoking, diet, and metabolic syndrome on bone metabolism, and aseptic peri-implant bone loss. Despite the infectious nature of peri-implant biological complications, these factors must be surveyed for the effective prevention and management of peri-implantitis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Autologous bone grafts demonstrate osteoconductive, osteoinductive, and osteogenic properties. Hand surgeons commonly augment surgical fixation with autografts to promote fracture healing. This study compared the intrinsic stem cell-like properties of 2 commonly used autograft sources in hand surgery: the iliac crest and distal radius. METHODS A total of 9 subjects who received an iliac crest bone graft and distal radius bone graft harvest as a part of the standard care of distal radius malunion or nonunion correction or scaphoid nonunion open reduction and internal fixation were enrolled in the study. Cells were isolated by serial collagenase digestion and subjected to fibroblast colony-forming units, osteogenesis, and adipogenesis assays. The expression levels of genes involved in osteogenesis and adipogenesis were confirmed using quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS The cells isolated from the iliac crest bone graft compared with those isolated from the distal radius bone graft demonstrated significantly higher mean fibroblast colony-forming unit efficiency; increased osteogenesis, as measured using alizarin red quantification; increased adipogenesis, as measured using oil red O quantification; and higher expression levels of genes involved in osteogenesis and adipogenesis under the respective differentiation conditions. CONCLUSIONS The cells isolated from the iliac crest bone graft demonstrated a higher fibroblast colony-forming unit capacity and an increased capability to undergo both osteogenesis and adipogenesis. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Limited evidence exists comparing the intrinsic stem cell-like properties of the iliac crest and distal radius despite the widespread use of each source in hand and wrist surgery. The information from this investigation may assist hand and wrist surgeons with the selection of a source of autograft.

This article provides the results of a study of the interaction of placental growth factor with adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) of various origins, as well as the possibility of generating osteoplastic material based on xenogeneic matrix functionalization with human placental growth factor (PLGF). It is demonstrated that the greatest release of this factor from the functionalized material into the medium occurs during the first 3 h of contact with the model medium, but then the levels of the factor being released fall sharply, although release did continue throughout the 7 days of observation. The modified material was not cytotoxic, and its surface provided good cell adhesion. During 3 days of cultivation, the ASCs proliferated and migrated more actively on the surfaces of the modified material than on the surfaces of the control material. This study can serve as the basis for the development of original methods to functionalize such osteoplastic material by increasing PLGF immobilization by creating stronger bonds in order to regulate both factor dosage and the dynamics of the factor release into the environment. Further studies in experimental animals should facilitate assessment of the effectiveness of the functionalized materials. Such studies will be useful in the development of osteoplastic materials with new properties resulting from the inclusion of growth factors and in research on their biological activity.

Abstract
AIM This investigation aimed to evaluate the 1-year survival of implants placed after staged lateral alveolar ridge augmentation using equine-derived collagenated xenogeneic bone blocks (CXBBs) or autogenous bone block (ABB). MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty patients who underwent lateral augmentation in a previous trial were included. The primary outcome measure was implant survival at the 1-year follow-up, and secondary outcomes included implant success, peri-implant clinical and volumetric parameters, pink aesthetic scores (PES) and patient-reported outcome measures. Data analysis involved Fisher's exact test, the Mann-Whitney U-test and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. RESULTS In this study, no late implant failures were observed. The cumulative survival rates were 78.6% for the CXBB group and 90.9% for the ABB group, with no difference between the groups. Similarly, the success rates were 53.6% and 63.6%, respectively, showing no significant difference. Peri-implant clinical and volumetric parameters indicated the presence of healthy peri-implant tissues surrounding implants placed in both CXBB- and ABB-augmented sites. PES were 8.5 and 11.0 for implants placed in CXBB- and ABB-augmented sites, respectively. Furthermore, patient satisfaction rates were high and similar between the groups. CONCLUSIONS Dental implants placed in both CXBB- and ABB-augmented ridges demonstrated no statistically significant differences in clinical, volumetric and aesthetic outcomes, along with high patient satisfaction rates.

Abstract
Assisted reproductive technologies are key to solving the problems of aging and organ defects. Collagen is compatible with living tissues and has many different chemical properties; it has great potential for use in reproductive medicine and the engineering of reproductive tissues. It is a natural substance that has been used a lot in science and medicine. Collagen is a substance that can be obtained from many different animals. It can be made naturally or created using scientific methods. Using pure collagen has some drawbacks regarding its physical and chemical characteristics. Because of this, when collagen is processed in various ways, it can better meet the specific needs as a material for repairing tissues. In simpler terms, collagen can be used to help regenerate bones, cartilage, and skin. It can also be used in cardiovascular repair and other areas. There are different ways to process collagen, such as cross-linking it, making it more structured, adding minerals to it, or using it as a carrier for other substances. All of these methods help advance the field of tissue engineering. This review summarizes and discusses the current progress of collagen-based materials for reproductive medicine.

Abstract
Zinc (Zn) is one of the most important trace elements in the human body and plays a key role in various physiological processes, especially in bone metabolism. Zn-containing materials have been reported to enhance bone repair through promoting cell proliferation, osteogenic activity, angiogenesis, and inhibiting osteoclast differentiation. Therefore, Zn-based biomaterials are potential substitutes for traditional bone grafts. In this review, the specific mechanisms of bone formation promotion by Zn-based biomaterials were discussed, and recent developments in their application in bone tissue engineering were summarized. Moreover, the challenges and perspectives of Zn-based biomaterials were concluded, revealing their attractive potential and development directions in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effects of concentrated growth factor (CGF), combined with a mixture of iliac cancellous and composite bone materials, on the repair of extensive mandibular defects. PATIENTS AND METHODS This clinical trial involved patients with mandibular defects caused by large cystic lesions. The test group comprised 16 patients who underwent CGF combined with iliac cancellous bone and composite bone materials to repair extensive mandibular defects, whereas the control group comprised eight patients who underwent vascularised free fibula grafts for mandibular segmental defects. Postoperative exudatum was collected from patients on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th days postoperatively, and osteogenic factor, including alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (BGP), and procollagen type I N-terminal propeptide (PINP), and inflammatory cytokines were performed. Additionally, regular cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans were conducted before and after surgery. RESULTS On postoperative days 1-4, the expression levels of ALP, BGP, and PINP were higher in the test group, while those of IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α, which were identified as co-differentially expressing inflammatory cytokines, were all down-regulated in the exudatum of the test group. Regular CBCT radiological scans revealed a significant osteogenic effect in the test group. CONCLUSION The use of CGF combined with iliac cancellous bone and composite bone materials to repair extensive mandibular jaw defects facilitates bone formation and reductions in inflammation in the defect area in the short term, which deserves further research in clinical practice.

Abstract
Background We mainly studied the mechanism by which phenytoin promotes osteogenic differentiation of human jawbone marrow stem cells. Methods Bone marrow stem cells were extracted from jaw bone tissue debris obtained from 5 subjects undergoing implant restoration. Osteogenic and adipogenic experiments proved cells stemness, and the expression of ALP, RUNX2, and OSX were detected by qPCR and Western blot. High-throughput sequencing was used to extract differentially expressed genes, the network database predicted phenytoin drug targets, GO and KEGG enrichment combined with PPI network diagram to analyze the osteogenesis mechanism. Results Calcium nodules and lipid droplet formation were observed in osteogenic and adipogenic experiments. The concentration of phenytoin within 100 mg/L does not produce cytotoxicity. The results of PCR and WB indicated that 50 mg/L phenytoin significantly promoted the expression of ALP and RUNX2, and 25 mg/L phenytoin significantly promoted the expression of OSX. The results of network pharmacology suggest that phenytoin promotes bone formation by up-regulating FGFR2, S1PR1, TGFB3, VCAN core proteins and activating PI3K/Akt pathway. Conclusions Phenytoin activated the PI3K/Akt pathway to regulate the osteogenic differentiation of human jawbone marrow stem cells. https://data.mendeley.com/datasets/t3xstktt93/1.

Alveolar ridge preservation in sockets with severe periodontal destruction using autogenous partially demineralized dentin matrix: A randomized controlled clinical trial. Clin Implant Dent Relat Res 2023; 25:1019-1032. [PMID: 37455372 DOI: 10.1111/cid.13247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Revised: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 06/29/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The preservation and reconstruction of alveolar ridge volume in extraction sockets of molars affected by severe periodontitis is a critical challenge that requires clinical attention. PURPOSE This randomized controlled clinical trial was designed to evaluate the efficiency of autogenous partially demineralized dentin matrix (APDDM) for alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) in severely periodontally compromised sockets compared to spontaneous healing (SH) on radiographic and histomorphometric outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-two patients with 32 periodontally compromised molars were randomized into either the test group, which received ARP using APDDM covered with a collagen sponge, or the control group, which underwent SH. Linear and volumetric changes were assessed using superimposed cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) acquired pre-extraction and after a 4-month healing time. Histomorphometric evaluation was performed on trephine cores harvested during implant placement. RESULTS All sites healed uneventfully. The ridge width at 1 mm apical to the bone crest increased by 5.03, 4.50, and 5.20 mm in the mesial, middle, distal area in the APDDM group, while decreasing by -1.98, -2.19, and -1.98 mm in the SH group, respectively (p < 0.05). The height increase of the central bone was significantly higher in the APDDM group than in the SH group (p < 0.05). The height decrease of the buccal (mesial, middle, distal) bone plate was lower in the APDDM group than in the SH group (p < 0.05). After a 4-month healing time, bone volume increased by 37.07% in the APDDM group and by only 2.33% in the SH group (p < 0.05). Histomorphometric analysis revealed that APDDM particles were surrounded by newly formed bone, with partially absorbed residual APDDM materials observed. New bone, APDDM remnants, and connective tissue occupied 39.67 ± 8.28%, 23.66 ± 9.22%, and 36.67 ± 17.05% of the areas in the APDDM group, respectively. CONCLUSIONS ARP using APDDM was effective, resulting in a significant increase in both linear and volumetric changes in severely periodontally compromised extraction sockets compared to SH. These findings suggest that APDDM may serve as a promising new clinical option for the reconstruction of alveolar ridge dimensions.
