Abstract
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is an effective strategy to promote periodontal tissue repair. The current study aimed to develop an injectable gel for GBR, composed of photo-cross-linkable hyaluronic acid and mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs) loaded with antibacterial minocycline hydrochloride (MNCl). Hyaluronic acid modified with methacrylic anhydride (MHA) that could be cross-linked under UV irradiation was first synthesized. Dynamic rheological evaluation of MHA under UV was carried out to determine its in-situ gelling feasibility and stability. Morphological and mechanical characterization was performed to determine the optimal concentration of MHA gels. Sol-gel derived MBGNs loaded with MNCl were further incorporated into MHA gels to obtain the injectable drug-loaded MBGN-MNCl/MHA gels. In vitro antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and osteogenic effects of this gel were evaluated. It was shown that the MHA gel obtained from 3 % MHA under UV treatment of 30s exhibited a suitable porous structure with a compressive strength of 100 kPa. MBGNs with particle size of ∼120 nm and mesopores were confirmed by TEM and SEM. MBGNs had a loading capacity of ∼120 mg/g for MNCl, exhibiting a sustained release behavior. The MBGN-MNCl/MHA gel was shown to effectively inhibit the proliferation of Streptococcus mutans and the expression of pro-inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α by macrophages. It could on the other hand significantly promote the expression of osteogenic-related genes ALP, Runx2, OPN, and osterix of MC3T3-E1 cells. In conclusion, the current design using photo-crosslinkable MHA gel embedded with MNCl loaded MBGNs can serve as a promising injectable formulation for GBR treatment of irregular periodontal defects.
