Abstract
The strategy of coupling the micro-vibration mechanical field with Ca/P ceramics to optimize the osteogenic microenvironment and enhance the functional activity of the cells can significantly improve the bone regeneration of the graft. However, the regulation mode and mechanism of this coupling strategy are not fully understood at present. This study investigated the influence of different waveforms of the electrical signals driving Microvibration Stimulation (MVS) on this coupling effect. The results showed that there were notable variances in calcium phosphate dissolution and redeposition, protein adsorption, phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and FAK signal pathways and activation of calcium channels such as TRPV1/Piezo1/Piezo2 in osteogenic microenvironment under the coupling action of hydroxyapatite (HA) ceramics and MVS driven by different electrical signal waveforms. Ultimately, these differences affected the osteogenic differentiation process of cells by a way of time-sequential regulation. Square wave-MVS coupled with HA ceramic can significantly delay the high expression time of characteristic genes (such as Runx2, Col-I and OCN) in MC3T3-E1 cells during in vitro the early, middle and late stage of differentiation, while maintain the high proliferative activity of MC3T3-E1 cells. Triangle wave signal-MVS coupled with HA ceramic promoted the osteogenic differentiation of cells in the early and late stages. Sine wave-MVS shows the effect on the process of osteogenic differentiation in the middle stage (such as the up-regulation of ALP synthesis and Col-I gene expression in the early stage of stimulation). In addition, Square wave-MVS showed the best coupling effect. The bone graft constructed under square wave-MVS formed new bone tissue and mature blood vessels only 2 weeks after subcutaneous implantation in nude mice. Our study provides a new non-invasive regulation model for precisely optimizing the osteogenic microenvironment, which can accelerate bone regeneration in bone grafts more safely, accurately and reliably.
