Abstract
Ti6Al4V is widely used in implants in the fields of orthopedics and dentistry due to its high compressive strength and good biocompatibility. Nevertheless, Ti6Al4V has a certain degree of biological inertness and the elastic modulus of Ti6Al4V is much higher than the cortex and trabecular bone. In this study, we designed and printed a new type of pore size Ti6Al4V with like-trabecular structure scaffold (the pore size is 800/900/1000 μm, named P8/P9/P10, respectively) with electron beam melting (EBM). Its elastic modulus, compressive strength, and other physical and chemical properties, as well as cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation ability and in vitro biological properties were studied. The physical and chemical performance test results showed that as the pore size increased, the surface wettability increased and the elastic modulus decreased. As the pore size increased, F-actin and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) increased significantly, and osteogenesis-related genes including BMP2, OCN, RUNX2, and ALP were upregulated significantly. The reason may be that the components on the Ti6Al4V pore size may have an influence on intracellular signal conversion and then change the mode of cell proliferation and diffusion. In summary, the like-trabecular porous structure can effectively reduce the elastic modulus of metal materials, thereby avoiding stress concentration and promoting the adhesion and proliferation of osteoblasts. Porous materials with larger pores are more conducive to the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts. The irregular porous Ti6Al4V scaffold prepared by the EBM technology has good mechanical properties and the potential to promote adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of osteoblasts, and has the possibility of application in the field of implantation.

J Biomed Mater Res A 2020; 108:1824-1833.

Abstract
Titanium (Ti) and Ti-based alloys are widely used in the manufacture of dental and orthopedic implants. However, how to improve their osteogenic differentiation ability is still a key issue to be resolved. In this study, gradient nanostructured surface (GNS) samples were prepared by surface mechanical grinding treatment, and coarse-grained (CG) samples were obtained by recrystallization annealing, making sure that the two kinds of specimens had similar roughness. Then, human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) were cocultured with the two kinds of Ti to investigate the material effects on the cellular functions. The results demonstrated that the grains with size ~56 nm were formed on the surface of the GNS Ti, and the grain size gradually increases from the sample surface to interior. Compared to the CG samples, the GNS ones could make the adhesion effect of the hAMSCs better, and promote the cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation more significantly, the preliminary mechanism of which might be due to their specific nanostructure, the thicker oxide layer formed on their surface and the enhanced hardness. Our results indicated that the gradient nanostructured Ti materials could enhance both osteogenic differentiation and mechanical properties, which may possess broader applications in bone tissue engineering and clinical implanting.
