Fluorinated hydroxyapatite conditions a favorable osteo-immune microenvironment via triggering metabolic shift from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation. J Transl Med 2024; 22:437. [PMID: 38720345 PMCID: PMC11077739 DOI: 10.1186/s12967-024-05261-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Biological-derived hydroxyapatite is widely used as a bone substitute for addressing bone defects, but its limited osteoconductive properties necessitate further improvement. The osteo-immunomodulatory properties hold crucial promise in maintaining bone homeostasis, and precise modulation of macrophage polarization is essential in this process. Metabolism serves as a guiding force for immunity, and fluoride modification represents a promising strategy for modulating the osteoimmunological environment by regulating immunometabolism. In this context, we synthesized fluorinated porcine hydroxyapatite (FPHA), and has demonstrated its enhanced biological properties and osteogenic capacity. However, it remains unknown whether and how FPHA affects the immune microenvironment of the bone defects. METHODS FPHA was synthesized and its composition and structural properties were confirmed. Macrophages were cultured with FPHA extract to investigate the effects of FPHA on their polarization and the related osteo-immune microenvironment. Furthermore, total RNA of these macrophages was extracted, and RNA-seq analysis was performed to explore the underlying mechanisms associated with the observed changes in macrophages. The metabolic states were evaluated with a Seahorse analyzer. Additionally, immunohistochemical staining was performed to evaluate the macrophages response after implantation of the novel bone substitutes in critical size calvarial defects in SD rats. RESULTS The incorporation of fluoride ions in FPHA was validated. FPHA promoted macrophage proliferation and enhanced the expression of M2 markers while suppressing the expression of M1 markers. Additionally, FPHA inhibited the expression of inflammatory factors and upregulated the expression of osteogenic factors, thereby enhancing the osteogenic differentiation capacity of the rBMSCs. RNA-seq analysis suggested that the polarization-regulating function of FPHA may be related to changes in cellular metabolism. Further experiments confirmed that FPHA enhanced mitochondrial function and promoted the metabolic shift of macrophages from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation. Moreover, in vivo experiments validated the above results in the calvarial defect model in SD rats. CONCLUSION In summary, our study reveals that FPHA induces a metabolic shift in macrophages from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation. This shift leads to an increased tendency toward M2 polarization in macrophages, consequently creating a favorable osteo-immune microenvironment. These findings provide valuable insights into the impact of incorporating an appropriate concentration of fluoride on immunometabolism and macrophage mitochondrial function, which have important implications for the development of fluoride-modified immunometabolism-based bone regenerative biomaterials and the clinical application of FPHA or other fluoride-containing materials.

RESEARCH (WASHINGTON, D.C.) 2023; 6:0225. [PMID: 37719049 PMCID: PMC10503960 DOI: 10.34133/research.0225] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 08/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/19/2023]
Abstract
The clinical efficacy of implanted biomaterials is often compromised by host immune recognition and subsequent foreign body responses (FBRs). During the implantation, biomaterials inevitably come into direct contact with the blood, absorbing blood protein and forming blood clot. Many studies have been carried out to regulate protein adsorption, thus manipulating FBR. However, the role of clot surface fibrin films formed by clotting shrinkage in host reactions and FBR is often ignored. Because of the principle of fibrin film formation being relevant to fibrinogen or clotting factor absorption, it is feasible to manipulate the fibrin film formation via tuning the absorption of fibrinogen and clotting factor. As biological hydroxyapatite reserved bone architecture and microporous structure, the smaller particle size may expose more microporous structures and adsorb more fibrinogen or clotting factor. Therefore, we set up 3 sizes (small, <0.2 mm; medium, 1 to 2 mm; large, 3 to 4 mm) of biological hydroxyapatite (porcine bone-derived hydroxyapatite) with different microporous structures to investigate the absorption of blood protein, the formation of clot surface fibrin films, and the subsequent FBR. We found that small group adsorbed more clotting factors because of more microporous structures and formed the thinnest and sparsest fibrin films. These thinnest and sparsest fibrin films increased inflammation and profibrosis of macrophages through a potential signaling pathway of cell adhesion-cytoskeleton-autophagy, leading to the stronger FBR. Large group adsorbed lesser clotting factors, forming the thickest and densest fibrin films, easing inflammation and profibrosis of macrophages, and finally mitigating FBR. Thus, this study deepens the understanding of the role of fibrin films in host recognition and FBR and demonstrates the feasibility of a strategy to regulate FBR by modulating fibrin films via tuning the absorption of blood proteins.

Abstract
As one of the key factors influencing the outcome of guided bone regeneration, the currently used xenografts possess insufficient capability in osteogenesis. With the aim of improving the osteogenic performance of xenografts, porcine bone-derived hydroxyapatite (PHA) was prepared and subsequently coated by magnesium-doped nano hydroxyapatite (nMgHA, 10%, 20%, and 30% of Mg/Ca + Mg) through a straightforward and cost-efficient approach. The physiochemical and biological properties of nMgHA/PHAs were examinedin vitroandin vivo. The inherent three-dimensional (3D) porous framework with the average pore size of 300 μm was well preserved in nMgHA/PHAs. Meanwhile, excess magnesium released from the so-called 'surface pool' of PHA was verified. In contrast, slower release of magnesium at lower concentrations was detected for nMgHA/PHAs. Significantly more newly-formed bone and microvessels were observed in 20%nMgHA/PHA than the other specimens. With the limitations of the present study, it could be concluded that PHA coated by 20%nMgHA may have the optimized osteogenic performance due to the elimination of the excess magnesium from the 'surface pool', the preservation of the inherent 3D porous framework with the favorable pore size, and the release of magnesium at an appropriate concentration that possessed osteoimmunomodulatory effects on macrophages.

Abstract
Cell-free biomaterials-inducing endogenous in situ multi-tissue regeneration is very challenging and applying advanced immunomodulatory biomaterials can be an effective strategy to overcome it. In-depth knowledge of the immunopathophysiological mechanisms should be acquired before applying such an immunomodulation strategy. In this study, we implanted different immunoregulatory cell-free biomaterials into periodontal multi-tissue defects and showed that the outcome of multi-tissue regeneration is closely regulated by the immune reaction. The underlying immunopathophysiological processes, including the blood clotting response and fibrinoid necrosis, innate and adaptive immune response, local and systemic immune reaction, growth factors release, and stem cells recruitment, were revealed. The implantation of biomaterials with anti-inflammatory properties could direct the immunopathophysiological process and make it more favorable for in situ multi-tissue regeneration, ultimately enabling the regeneration of the periodontal ligament, the acellular cementum matrix, and the alveolar bone in the periodontium. These findings further confirm the effectiveness of immunomodulatory based strategy and the unveiling of their immunopathophysiological processes could provide some favorable theoretical bases for the development of advanced cell-free immunomodulatory multi-tissue regenerative biomaterials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Biological hydroxyapatite (BHA)-based bone grafting materials have been widely used for bone regeneration in implant surgery. Much effort has been made in the improvement of their osteogenic property as it remains unsatisfactory for clinical use. Osteoimmunomodulation plays a significant role in bone regeneration, which is highly related to active inorganic ions. Therefore, attempts have been made to obtain osteoimmunomodulatory BHA-based bone grafting materials with optimized osteogenic property by ion doping. OBJECTIVE: To summarize and discuss the active inorganic ions doped into BHA and their effects on BHA-based bone grafting materials. METHOD: A literature search was performed in databases including Google Scholar, Web of Science and PubMed, with the elementary keywords of “ion doped” and “biological hydroxyapatite”, as well as several supplementary keywords. All document types were included in this search. The searching period and language were not limited and kept updated to 2022. RESULTS: A total of 32 articles were finally included, of which 32 discussed the physiochemical properties of BHA-based biomaterials, while 12 investigated their biological features in vitro, and only three examined their biological performance in vivo. Various ions were doped into BHA, including fluoride, zinc, magnesium and lithium. Such ions improved the biological performance of BHA-based biomaterials, which was attributed to their osteoimmunomodulatory effect. CONCLUSION: The doping of active inorganic ions is a reliable strategy to endow BHA-based biomaterials with osteoimmunomodulatory property and promote bone regeneration. Further studies are still in need to explore more ions and their effects in the crosstalk between the skeletal and immune systems.

Abstract
In a previous study, we successfully prepared fluorinated porcine hydroxyapatite (FPHA) by immersing porcine hydroxyapatite (PHA) in an aqueous solution of 0.25 M sodium fluoride (NaF) under thermal treatment, and the resulting FPHA showed better physicochemical and biological properties than PHA. The purpose of this study was to further investigate how fluorine incorporation influenced the biocompatibility and osteogenic capacity of PHA. The concentrations of Ca, P, F, and Mg ions in PHA and FPHA extracts were detected by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. Rat bone marrow stromal cells (rBMSCs) were treated with PHA and FPHA extracts, and the effects of these extracts on cell proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation were evaluated via Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, alkaline phosphatase assay, and real time-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. For the in vivo assessment, PHA and FPHA were implanted into subcutaneous pockets (n = 6) and rat calvarial defects (diameter = 5 mm, n = 14) for 12 weeks to determine their biocompatibility and osteogenic capacity by using micro-computed tomography (CT) and histological analysis. FPHA extracts, which release higher concentrations of F and Mg ions, better promoted the osteoblastic differentiation of rBMSCs in vitro. The result of biocompatibility evaluation confirmed that the host response and chronic inflammation cells infiltration degree around PHA and FPHA granules were similar. Micro-CT and histological analysis showed newer mineralized bone formation in rats with FPHA-treated defects than in rats with PHA-treated defects. The results of in vitro and in vivo tests consistently indicate that fluorine incorporation effectively enhanced the osteogenic capacity of PHA.

Abstract
As the main inorganic component of xenogenic bone graft material, bone-derived biological apatite (BAp) has been widely used in implant dentistry, oral and maxillofacial surgery and orthopedics. However, BAp produced via calcination of animal bones still suffers from some drawbacks, such as insufficient mechanical strength and inadequate degradation rate, which impede its application. Fluoride is known to play important roles in both physiological and pathological processes of human hard tissues for its double effects on bones and teeth. In order to understand the effects of fluoride on the properties of BAp, as well as the mechanism behind them, porcine bone derived hydroxyapatite (PHAp) was prepared via thermal treatment, which was then fluoride incorporated at a series concentrations of sodium fluoride, and noted as 0.25-FPHAp, 0.50-FPHAp, and 0.75-FPHAp respectively. The physicochemical characteristics of the materials, including crystal morphology, crystallinity, functional groups, elemental composition, compressive strength, porosity and solubility, were then determined. The biological properties, such as protein adsorption and cell attachment, were also evaluated. It was found that the spheroid-like crystals of PHAp were changed into rod-like after fluoride substitution, resulting in a fluoride concentration-dependent increase in compressive strength, as well as a decreased porosity and solubility of the apatite. However, even though the addition of fluoride was demonstrated to enhance protein adsorption and cell attachment of the materials, the most favorable results were intriguingly achieved in FPHAp with the least fluoride content. Collectively, low level of fluoride incorporation is proposed promising for the modification of clinically used BAp based bone substitute materials, because of its being able to maintain a good balance between physicochemical and biological properties of the apatite.

Abstract
Calcium phosphates (CAPs) can be produced from either biologically sourced materials or mineral deposits. The raw materials impart unique properties to the CAPs due to innate trace amounts of elements that affect the crystal structure, morphology and stoichiometry. Using calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precursors derived from fossilized calcareous marine sediments (FCMSs), we have synthesized a novel class of CAP biomaterials, termed fm-CaPs, with defined Ca/P molar ratios of 1.4 and 1.7 using a wet synthesis method. Compared with commercially available CAP biomaterials, such as hydroxyapatite (HA) and beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), fm-CaP1.7 had a biphasic composition consisting of an HA phase (in a hexagonal system) and a β-TCP phase (in a rhombohedral crystalline system), which is desirable for the current design of bone substitutes, whereas fm-CaP1.4 consisted of an HA phase and a beta-dicalcium pyrophosphate phase (in a tetragonal system). These bioceramics exhibited a fringe structure of regular crystallographic orientation with well-ordered mesoporous channels. The FCMS raw material imparted trace amounts of silicon (Si), strontium (Sr) and zinc (Zn) to fm-CaPs; these are elements that are important for bone formation. The cyto-compatibility of these biomaterials and their effects on cellular activity were evaluated using osteoblast cells. Cell proliferation assays revealed no signs of cytotoxicity, whereas cells growth was equal to or better than HA and β-TCP controls. The SEM analysis of the cell and material interactions showed good cell spreading on the fm-CaP materials that was comparable to β-TCP and in vitro assays suggested robust osteogenic differentiation, as seen by increased mineralization (alizarin red) and upregulation of osteogenic gene expression. Our results indicate that fm-CaP1.7, in particular, has chemical, physical and morphological properties that make this material suitable for applications that promote bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Biological hydroxyapatite, derived from animal bones, is the most widely used bone substitute in orthopedic and dental treatments. Fluorine is the trace element involved in bone remodeling and has been confirmed to promote osteogenesis when administered at the appropriate dose. To take advantage of this knowledge, fluorinated porcine hydroxyapatite (FPHA) incorporating increasing levels of fluoride was derived from cancellous porcine bone through straightforward chemical and thermal treatments. Physiochemical characteristics, including crystalline phases, functional groups and dissolution behavior, were investigated on this novel FPHA. Human osteoblast-like MG63 cells were cultured on the FPHA to examine cell attachment, cytoskeleton, proliferation and osteoblastic differentiation for in vitro cellular evaluation. Results suggest that fluoride ions released from the FPHA play a significant role in stimulating osteoblastic activity in vitro, and appropriate level of fluoridation (1.5 to 3.1 atomic percents of fluorine) for the FPHA could be selected with high potential for use as a bone substitute.
