Abstract
This study investigates the interaction between titanium oxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) and the heterocyclic fluorophore 6-fluoro,4-hydroxy,2-methylquinoline (6-FHMQ), aiming to understand fluorescence quenching mechanisms and thermodynamic characteristics. Spectroscopic techniques including spectrofluorometry (FL) and spectrophotometry (UV-Vis) were used, with a lifetime decay (τ) of 0.18 ns for 6-FHMQ measured using time correlated single photon counting (TCSPC). The interaction between 6-FHMQ and TiO2 NPs revealed a mix of static and dynamic fluorescence quenching mechanisms, with increasing quenching constants (Ksv) and a higher bimolecular quenching rate constant (Kq). The dynamic nature was highlighted by a temperature-dependent increase in binding sites from 1 to ~ 2. Spontaneous complexation was affirmed by negative change in free energy (ΔG), with negative change in enthalpy (ΔH) and a positive change in entropy (ΔS) values indicating favorable electrostatic and ionic interactions. The impact of varying TiO2 NP concentrations on 6-FHMQ absorption was analyzed using the Benesi-Hildbrand equation, with a quantum yield of 0.61 determined. By forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) theory, the proximity between 6-FHMQ and TiO2 NPs was found to be less than 70 Å. Ground and excited state dipole moments of 6-FHMQ in different solvents were calculated to demonstrate solvent sensing ability and charge transfer properties. Ultimately, this study serves as a testament to the power of scientific innovation in the realms of drug delivery and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are heterobifunctional molecules that have the capability to induce specific protein degradation. While playing a revolutionary role in effectively degrading the protein of interest (POI), PROTACs encounter certain limitations that impede their clinical translation. These limitations encompass off-target effects, inadequate cell membrane permeability, and the hook effect. The advent of nanotechnology presents a promising avenue to surmount the challenges associated with conventional PROTACs. The utilization of nano-proteolysis targeting chimeras (nano-PROTACs) holds the potential to enhance specific tissue accumulation, augment membrane permeability, and enable controlled release. Consequently, this approach has the capacity to significantly enhance the controllable degradation of target proteins. Additionally, they enable a synergistic effect by combining with other therapeutic strategies. This review comprehensively summarizes the structural basis, advantages, and limitations of PROTACs. Furthermore, it highlights the latest advancements in nanosystems engineered for delivering PROTACs, as well as the development of nano-sized PROTACs employing nanocarriers as linkers. Moreover, it delves into the underlying principles of nanotechnology tailored specifically for PROTACs, alongside the current prospects of clinical research. In conclusion, the integration of nanotechnology into PROTACs harbors vast potential in enhancing the anti-tumor treatment response and expediting clinical translation.

Abstract
Anodic titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanostructures, i.e., obtained by electrochemical anodization, have excellent control over the nanoscale morphology and have been extensively investigated in biomedical applications owing to their sub-100 nm nanoscale topography range and beneficial effects on biocompatibility and cell interactions. Herein, we obtain TiO2 nanopores (NPs) and nanotubes (NTs) with similar morphologies, namely, 15 nm diameter and 500 nm length, and investigate their characteristics and impact on stem cell adhesion. We show that the transition of TiO2 NPs to NTs occurs via a pore/wall splitting mechanism and the removal of the fluoride-rich layer. Furthermore, in contrast to the case of NPs, we observe increased cell adhesion and proliferation on nanotubes. The enhanced mesenchymal stem cell adhesion/proliferation seems to be related to a 3-fold increase in activated integrin clustering, as confirmed by immunogold labeling with β1 integrin antibody on the nanostructured layers. Moreover, computations of the electric field and surface charge density show increased values at the inner and outer sharp edges of the top surfaces of the NTs, which in turn can influence cell adhesion by increasing the bridging interactions mediated by proteins and molecules in the environment. Collectively, our results indicate that the nanoscale surface architecture of the lateral spacing topography can greatly influence stem cell adhesion on substrates for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Over the past decade, metallic drug-eluting implants have gained significance in orthopedic and dental applications for controlled drug release, specifically for preventing infection associated with implants. Recent studies showed that metallic implants loaded with drugs were substituted for conventional bare metal implants to achieve sustained and controlled drug release, resulting in a desired local therapeutic concentration. A number of secondary features can be provided by the incorporated active molecules, including the promotion of osteoconduction and angiogenesis, the inhibition of bacterial invasion, and the modulation of host body reaction. This paper reviews recent trends in the development of the metallic drug-eluting implants with various drug delivery systems in the past three years. There are various types of drug-eluting implants that have been developed to meet this purpose, depending on the drug or agents that have been loaded on them. These include anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics agents, growth factors, and anti-resorptive drugs.

Abstract
This review’s objectives are to provide an overview of the various kinds of biopolymer hydrogels that are currently used for bone tissue and periodontal tissue regeneration, to list the advantages and disadvantages of using them, to assess how well they might be used for nanoscale fabrication and biofunctionalization, and to describe their production processes and processes for functionalization with active biomolecules. They are applied in conjunction with other materials (such as microparticles (MPs) and nanoparticles (NPs)) and other novel techniques to replicate physiological bone generation more faithfully. Enhancing the biocompatibility of hydrogels created from blends of natural and synthetic biopolymers can result in the creation of the best scaffold match to the extracellular matrix (ECM) for bone and periodontal tissue regeneration. Additionally, adding various nanoparticles can increase the scaffold hydrogel stability and provide a number of biological effects. In this review, the research study of polysaccharide hydrogel as a scaffold will be critical in creating valuable materials for effective bone tissue regeneration, with a future impact predicted in repairing bone defects.

Abstract
Due to their superior mechanical and chemical properties, titanium (Ti) and its alloys have been widely used as orthopedic implantable devices. However, their bioinertness represents a limitation, which can be overcome by employing various surface modifications, such as TiO2 nanotube (TNT) fabrication via electrochemical anodization. Anodic TNTs present tunable dimensions and unique structures, turning them into feasible drug delivery platforms. In the present work, TNTs were loaded with icariin (Ica) through an adhesive intermediate layer of polydopamine (DP), and their in vitro and in vivo biological performance was evaluated. The successful fabrication of the modified surfaces was verified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and contact angle measurements (CA), while the in vitro release of Ica was evaluated via UV-VIS spectrophotometry. In terms of in vitro behaviour, comparative studies on RAW 264.7 macrophages demonstrated that the TNT substrates, especially TNT-DP-Ica, elicited a lower inflammatory response compared to the Ti support. Moreover, the in vivo implantation studies evinced generation of a reduced fibrotic capsule around this implant and increased thickness of the newly formed bone tissue at 1 month and 3 months post-implantation, respectively. Overall, our results indicate that the controlled release of Ica from TNT surfaces could result in an improved osseointegration process.

Macrophage-like Cells Are Responsive to Titania Nanotube Intertube Spacing-An In Vitro Study. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23073558.

Abstract
With the introduction of a new interdisciplinary field, osteoimmunology, today, it is well acknowledged that biomaterial-induced inflammation is modulated by immune cells, primarily macrophages, and can be controlled by nanotopographical cues. Recent studies have investigated the effect of surface properties in modulating the immune reaction, and literature data indicate that various surface cues can dictate both the immune response and bone tissue repair. In this context, the purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of titanium dioxide nanotube (TNT) interspacing on the response of the macrophage-like cell line RAW 264.7. The cells were maintained in contact with the surfaces of flat titanium (Ti) and anodic TNTs with an intertube spacing of 20 nm (TNT20) and 80 nm (TNT80), under standard or pro-inflammatory conditions. The results revealed that nanotube interspacing can influence macrophage response in terms of cell survival and proliferation, cellular morphology and polarization, cytokine/chemokine expression, and foreign body reaction. While the nanostructured topography did not tune the macrophages’ differentiation into osteoclasts, this behavior was significantly reduced as compared to flat Ti surface. Overall, this study provides a new insight into how nanotubes’ morphological features, particularly intertube spacing, could affect macrophage behavior.

Abstract
Titanium (Ti) alloys, particularly Ti6 Al4 V, are the most commonly used biomedical implant material. Ti alloys are biologically inert, so there have been continuous efforts to improve their osteogenic properties and clinical performance. Since TiO2 nanotubes (NT) appear to be excellent drug platforms, and strontium reportedly enhances osteogenesis, we constructed a TiO2 nanotube coating on the surface of Ti6 Al4 V and immersed it in Sr (OH)2 solution in order to incorporate Sr into TiO2 nanotubes (NT-Sr). The results of field emission scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction analysis verified the fabrication of NT-Sr. We next added polydopamine (PDA) and cyclo- (arginine-glycine-aspartic acid-phenylalanine-cysteine) [c(RGDfC)] peptides to further promote biocompatibility of the implant. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the existence of PDA and c(RGDfC). Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were planted on Ti, NT, NT-Sr, NT-Sr/PDA, and NT-Sr/PDA-RGD surfaces. The adhesion and differentiation of MSCs on different surfaces were evaluated. The mRNA expression of alkaline phosphatase, runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and type I collagen (Col I) of different groups were also tested. Finally, we observed that the NT-Sr/PDA-RGD group showed significantly better performance than other groups in terms of the differentiation and osteogenesis-related gene expression of MSCs. Thus, the NT-Sr/PDA-RGD complex may be an important modification strategy for Ti, as it shows excellent osteogenic potential.

Biomaterials 2021; 280:121260. [PMID: 34823885 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2021.121260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2021] [Revised: 10/19/2021] [Accepted: 11/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
An increasing number of works have highlighted the importance of metal implants surface modification in enhancing bone defect healing through the synergistic osteogenesis-angiogenesis regulation. Studies have shown that pitavastatin has the effect of promoting osteogenesis and angiogenesis. However, how to prepare pitavastatin functionalized implants and how pitavastatin regulates the synergies of osteogenesis and angiogenesis around implants as well as the related mechanisms remain unclear. In the present study, multilayer films with osteogenic and angiogenic properties were constructed on pure titanium substrates via the layer-by-layer assembly of pitavastatin-loaded β-cyclodextrin grafted chitosan and gelatin. In vitro experiments demonstrated that locally applied pitavastatin could dramatically enhance osteogenic potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and angiogenic potential of endothelial cells (ECs). Moreover, pitavastatin loaded multilayer films could regulate the paracrine signaling mediated crosstalk between MSCs and ECs, and indirectly increase the angiogenic potential of MSCs and osteogenic potential of ECs via multiple paracrine signaling. The results of subcutaneous and femur implantation confirmed that locally released pitavastatin had potentially triggered a chain of biological events: mobilizing endogenous stem cells and ECs to the implant-bone interface, in turn facilitating coupled osteogenesis and angiogenesis, and eventually enhancing peri-implant osseointegration. This study enlarges the application scope of pitavastatin and provides an optional choice for developing a multifunctional bioactive coating on the surfaces of mental implants.

[PMID: 34578675 PMCID: PMC8466263 DOI: 10.3390/nano11092359] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2021] [Revised: 09/06/2021] [Accepted: 09/08/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
TiO2 nanostructures and more specifically nanotubes have gained significant attention in biomedical applications, due to their controlled nanoscale topography in the sub-100 nm range, high surface area, chemical resistance, and biocompatibility. Here we review the crucial aspects related to morphology and properties of TiO2 nanotubes obtained by electrochemical anodization of titanium for the biomedical field. Following the discussion of TiO2 nanotopographical characterization, the advantages of anodic TiO2 nanotubes will be introduced, such as their high surface area controlled by the morphological parameters (diameter and length), which provides better adsorption/linkage of bioactive molecules. We further discuss the key interactions with bone-related cells including osteoblast and stem cells in in vitro cell culture conditions, thus evaluating the cell response on various nanotubular structures. In addition, the synergistic effects of electrical stimulation on cells for enhancing bone formation combining with the nanoscale environmental cues from nanotopography will be further discussed. The present review also overviews the current state of drug delivery applications using TiO2 nanotubes for increased osseointegration and discusses the advantages, drawbacks, and prospects of drug delivery applications via these anodic TiO2 nanotubes.

Understanding and optimizing the antibacterial functions of anodized nano-engineered titanium implants. Acta Biomater 2021; 127:80-101. [PMID: 33744499 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.03.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 47] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2021] [Revised: 03/07/2021] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Nanoscale surface modification of titanium-based orthopaedic and dental implants is routinely applied to augment bioactivity, however, as is the case with other cells, bacterial adhesion is increased on nano-rough surfaces. Electrochemically anodized Ti implants with titania nanotubes (TNTs) have been proposed as an ideal implant surface with desirable bioactivity and local drug release functions to target various conditions. However, a comprehensive state of the art overview of why and how such TNTs-Ti implants acquire antibacterial functions, and an in-depth knowledge of how topography, chemistry and local elution of potent antibiotic agents influence such functions has not been reported. This review discusses and details the application of nano-engineered Ti implants modified with TNTs for maximum local antibacterial functions, deciphering the interdependence of various characteristics and the fine-tuning of different parameters to minimize cytotoxicity. An ideal implant surface should cater simultaneously to ossoeintegration (and soft-tissue integration for dental implants), immunomodulation and antibacterial functions. We also evaluate the effectiveness and challenges associated with such synergistic functions from modified TNTs-implants. Particular focus is placed on the metallic and semi-metallic modification of TNTs towards enabling bactericidal properties, which is often dose dependent. Additionally, there are concerns over the cytotoxicity of these therapies. In that light, research challenges in this domain and expectations from the next generation of customizable antibacterial TNTs implants towards clinical translation are critically evaluated. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: One of the major causes of titanium orthopaedic/dental implant failure is bacterial colonization and infection, which results in complete implant failure and the need for revision surgery and re-implantation. Using advanced nanotechnology, controlled nanotopographies have been fabricated on Ti implants, for instance anodized nanotubes, which can accommodate and locally elute potent antibiotic agents. In this pioneering review, we shine light on the topographical, chemical and therapeutic aspects of antibacterial nanotubes towards achieving desirable tailored antibacterial efficacy without cytotoxicity concerns. This interdisciplinary review will appeal to researchers from the wider scientific community interested in biomaterials science, structure and function, and will provide an improved understanding of controlling bacterial infection around nano-engineered implants, aimed at bridging the gap between research and clinics.

Abstract
In clinical terms, bone grafting currently involves the application of autogenous, allogeneic, or xenogeneic bone grafts, as well as natural or artificially synthesized materials, such as polymers, bioceramics, and other composites. Many of these are associated with limitations. The ideal scaffold for bone tissue engineering should provide mechanical support while promoting osteogenesis, osteoconduction, and even osteoinduction. There are various structural complications and engineering difficulties to be considered. Here, we describe the biomimetic possibilities of the modification of natural or synthetic materials through physical and chemical design to facilitate bone tissue repair. This review summarizes recent progresses in the strategies for constructing biomimetic scaffolds, including ion-functionalized scaffolds, decellularized extracellular matrix scaffolds, and micro- and nano-scale biomimetic scaffold structures, as well as reactive scaffolds induced by physical factors, and other acellular scaffolds. The fabrication techniques for these scaffolds, along with current strategies in clinical bone repair, are described. The developments in each category are discussed in terms of the connection between the scaffold materials and tissue repair, as well as the interactions with endogenous cells. As the advances in bone tissue engineering move toward application in the clinical setting, the demonstration of the therapeutic efficacy of these novel scaffold designs is critical.

Abstract
Implant-supported dentures are widely used in patients with defect or loss of dentition because these have higher chewing efficiency and do not damage the adjacent teeth compared with fixed or removable denture. An implant-supported denture carries the risk of failure in some systemic diseases, including osteoporosis, because of a non-ideal local microenvironment. Clinically common physical and chemical modifications are used to change the roughness of the implant surface to promote osseointegration, but they have limitations in promoting osteoinduction and inhibiting bone resorption. Recently, many researchers have focused on the study of bioactive modification of implants and have achieved promising results. Herein we have summarized the progress in bioactive modification strategy to promote osseointegration by regulating the local osteoporotic microenvironment.

Abstract
The main disadvantage of the implants is the associated infections. Therefore, in the long term, the possibility of improving the antibacterial capacity of different types of implants (dental, orthopedic) is being researched. The severity of the problem lies in the increasing bacterial resistance and finding appropriate alternative treatments for infectious diseases, which is an important research field nowadays. The purpose of this review is to draw a parallel between different studies analyzing the antibacterial activity and mechanism of silver nanoparticles (NP Ag) deposited on the titanium nanotubes (NTT), as well as the analysis of the NP Ag toxicity. This review also provides an overview of the synthesis and characterization of TiO2-derived nanotubes (NT). Thus, the analysis aims to present the existing knowledge to better understand the NP Ag implants benefits and their antibacterial activity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Widespread biomedical applications of nanomaterials (NMs) bring about increased human exposure risk due to their unique physicochemical properties. Autophagy, which is of great importance for regulating the physiological or pathological activities of the body, has been reported to play a key role in NM-driven biological effects both in vivo and in vitro. The coexisting hazard and health benefits of NM-mediated autophagy in biomedicine are nonnegligible and require our particular concerns. MAIN BODY We collected research on the toxic effects related to NM-mediated autophagy both in vivo and in vitro. Generally, NMs can be delivered into animal models through different administration routes, or internalized by cells through different uptake pathways, exerting varying degrees of damage in tissues, organs, cells, and organelles, eventually being deposited in or excreted from the body. In addition, other biological effects of NMs, such as oxidative stress, inflammation, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis, have been associated with autophagy and cooperate to regulate body activities. We therefore highlight that NM-mediated autophagy serves as a double-edged sword, which could be utilized in the treatment of certain diseases related to autophagy dysfunction, such as cancer, neurodegenerative disease, and cardiovascular disease. Challenges and suggestions for further investigations of NM-mediated autophagy are proposed with the purpose to improve their biosafety evaluation and facilitate their wide application. Databases such as PubMed and Web of Science were utilized to search for relevant literature, which included all published, Epub ahead of print, in-process, and non-indexed citations. CONCLUSION In this review, we focus on the dual effect of NM-mediated autophagy in the biomedical field. It has become a trend to use the benefits of NM-mediated autophagy to treat clinical diseases such as cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Understanding the regulatory mechanism of NM-mediated autophagy in biomedicine is also helpful for reducing the toxic effects of NMs as much as possible.
