Project description:BackgroundNonunion following fracture treatment remains a significant clinical challenge, adversely affecting the patient's quality of life and imposing a substantial economic burden. The emergence of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) for bone regeneration represents a promising avenue, albeit limited by side effects such as inflammatory reactions primarily due to suboptimal drug delivery systems. This study focuses on NOVOSIS putty (NP), a novel biomaterial designed for the sustained release of BMP-2, aiming to mitigate these limitations and enhance bone healing.ObjectiveThis research aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of NP, a hydroxyapatite granules/β-tricalcium phosphate hydrogel composite (HA/β-TCP/hydrogel), as a BMP-2 carrier for promoting bone regeneration in a new rat nonunion model of long bone.MethodsUsing Sprague Dawley rats, a 2-mm silicone disk was interposed at the femoral fracture site, and intramedullary fixation with K-wire was performed to create a nonunion with a 2-mm bone defect. After 3 weeks, internal fixation with a plate, removal of the silicon disk, and refreshing the nonunion site were performed by implanting three different materials into the nonunion sites: allogenic iliac bone (IB), collagen sponge (CS) containing 10 μg of BMP-2, or NP containing 10 μg of BMP-2. Bone healing was evaluated weekly using micro-computed tomography (CT); ex vivo micro-Ct and histological evaluation were conducted at 6 weeks.ResultsAt 6 weeks, NP demonstrated a significantly higher bone union rate (76.5%) compared with the CS group (35.3%, p = 0.037), and the IB group (6.3%, p < 0.0001). Bone mineral density (BMD) and bone volume/tissue volume (BV/TV) were also significantly higher in the NP group compared with the CS group (BMD, p < 0.0001; BV/TV, p = 0.031). Histological analysis showed the fracture gap in the NP group was filled with more trabecular bone and less fibrous tissue compared with the CS group.ConclusionThe study confirms NP is a highly effective BMP-2 carrier, significantly improving bone union rates and new bone formation in nonunion fractures. The sustained release of BMP-2 from the hydrogel component reduced inflammatory responses and enhanced bone regeneration. NP can be a promising alternative to collagen-based BMP-2 delivery systems.

Project description:In this study, recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) delivery system with slow mode was successfully developed in three-dimensional (3D) printing-based polycaprolactone (PCL)/poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) scaffolds for bone formation of critical-sized rabbit segmental diaphyseal defect. To control the delivery of the rhBMP-2, collagen (for long-term delivery up to 28 days) and gelatin (for shor-term delivery within a week) solutions encapsulating rhBMP-2 were dispensed into a hollow cylinderical type of PCL/PLGA scaffold. An effective dose of 5μg/mL was determined by measuring the alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin gene expression levels of human nasal inferior turbinate-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hTMSCs) seeded on the PCL/PLGA/collagen scaffold in vitro. However, it was found that a burst release of rhBMP-2 from the PCL/PLGA/gelatin scaffold did not induce the osteogenic differentiation of hTMSCs in vitro at an equivalent dose. In the in vivo animal experiements, microcomputed tomography and histological analyses confirmed that PCL/PLGA/collagen/rhBMP-2 scaffolds (long-term delivery mode) showed the best bone healing quality at both weeks 4 and 8 after implantation without inflammatory response. On the other hand, a large number of macrophages indicating severe inflammation provoked by burst release of rhBMP-2 were observed in the vicinity of PCL/PLGA/gelatin/rhBMP-2 (short-term delivery mode) at week 4.

Project description:Physical barrier membranes have been used to release active substances to treat critical bone defects; however, hydrophilic membranes do not present a prolonged release capacity. In this sense, hydrophobic membranes have been tested. Thus, this study aimed to develop hydrophobic membranes based on mixtures of ureasil-polyether-type materials containing incorporated dexamethasone (DMA) for the application in guided bone regeneration. The physicochemical characterization and biological assays were carried out using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), an in vitro DMA release study, atomic force microscopy (AFM), a hemolysis test, and in vivo bone formation. The swelling degree, SAXS, and release results revealed that the u-PPO400/2000 membrane in the proportion of 70:30 showed swelling (4.69% ± 0.22) similar to the proportions 90:10 and 80:20, and lower than the proportion 60:40 (6.38% ± 0.49); however, an equal release percentage after 134 h was observed between the proportions 70:30 and 60:40. All u-PPO materials presented hemocompatibility (hemolysis ≤2.8%). AFM results showed that the treatments with or without DMA did not present significant differences, revealing a flat/smooth surface, with no pores and/or crystalline precipitates. Finally, in vivo results revealed that for both the commercial hydrophilic membrane and u-PPO400/2000 (70:30) after 60 days, the bone formation volume was 21%. In conclusion, hybrid membranes present unique characteristics for treating critical bone defects, considering the delayed and prolonged release results associated with the physical barrier capacity.

Project description:The effects and inflammation-related side effects of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2 on posterior lumbar interbody fusion are controversial. One of the potential causes for the inconsistent results is the uncontrolled release of BMP-2 from the collagen carrier. Therefore, BMP delivery systems that support effective bone regeneration while attenuating the side effects are strongly sought for. We developed NOVOSIS putty (NP), a novel composite material of hydroxyapatite (HA), beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP)/hydrogel, and BMP-2, which can sustainably release BMP-2 over 2 weeks. This study was aimed at comparing the effects and side effects of NP and collagen sponge (CS) containing BMP-2 using a rat caudal intervertebral fusion model. The fusion rates of NP with low and high doses of BMP-2 were significantly higher than those of an iliac bone (IB) graft, but those of CS with low and high doses of BMP-2 were not different from those of the IB graft. Furthermore, the incidences of ectopic bone formation and soft tissue swelling were significantly lower in the NP group than in the CS group. The HA/β-TCP/hydrogel carrier enabled superior bone induction with low-dose BMP-2 and decreased the incidence of side effects caused by high-dose BMP-2 vis-à-vis the collagen carrier.

Project description:This paper reports a facile fabrication method of hydroxyapatite/chitosan (HAp/CS) composite scaffold with 3D porous structure without using any chemical cross-linkers. The HAp particles had an urchin-like hollow microstructure and high surface area, which was uniformly dispersed into the pore walls of the HAp/CS scaffold. The addition of HAp can efficiently enhance the mechanical properties and bioactivity of the HAp/CS scaffold. Moreover, periostin was successfully loaded onto the HAp/CS scaffold. When applied to the repair of bone defect in a rat mandibular model, the HAp/CS scaffold loaded with periostin can enhance osteointegration and accelerate bone regeneration. Our research combines periostin with the HAp/CS composite material, which provides a novel strategy to improve bone regeneration and has great application prospect in bone repair fields.

Project description:Most materials used clinically for filling critical-sized bone defects (CSBD), such as deproteinized bovine bone (DBB), lack osteoinductivity so that their therapeutic effects are far from satisfactory. The effect of bone morphogenic protein 2 (BMP2)-coprecipitated biomimetic calcium phosphate granules (BMP2-cop.BioCaP) on osteoinduction of DBB graft(s) during CSBD healing is still unknown. We investigated whether BMP2-cop.BioCaP affects the osteoinductivity of DBB, bone formation, and foreign body reaction during CSBD healing. DBB + BMP2-cop.BioCaP, DBB, DBB + BMP2, DBB + BioCaP, and autologous bone grafts were implanted in the CSBD of sheep. Bone formation, DBB/BioCaP degradability, foreign body reaction, and osteoinductivity of DBB were analyzed histologically and histomorphometrically at week 4 and 8. Combination of BMP2-cop.BioCaP and DBB healed CSBD as effectively as autologous bone grafts. About 95% of the BMP2-cop.BioCaP had been degraded and replaced by new bone at week 8 in the DBB + BMP2-cop.BioCaP-group. Foreign body reaction was reduced in the DBB + BMP2-cop.BioCaP-group compared to the other groups. The independent use of the BMP2-cop.BioCaP did not achieve a satisfactory bone repair. In conclusion, the BMP2-cop.BioCaP showed good degradability and biocompatibility, and enhanced osteoinductivity of DBB during CSBD healing in sheep, suggesting BMP2-cop.BioCaP as a potential osteoinducer to enhance the therapeutic effects of the graft materials in clinic.

Project description:Although bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) has potent osteoinductivity, the potential adverse events attributed to its burst release prevent its widespread clinical application. Therefore, there is a strong need for BMP delivery systems that maximize osteoinductivity while preventing adverse effects. We evaluated the bone-regenerating potential of NOVOSIS putty (NP), a novel composite combining hydroxyapatite, beta-tricalcium phosphate microsphere/poloxamer 407-based hydrogel, and recombinant human (rh) BMP-2. In vitro assessment of release kinetics by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay demonstrated sustained release of rhBMP-2 from NP and burst release from collagen sponge (CS), and in vivo assessment of release kinetics by longitudinal tracking of fluorescently labeled rhBMP-2 showed a longer biological half-life of rhBMP-2 with NP than with CS. Furthermore, osteogenic gene expression in MC3T3-E1 cells was significantly higher after co-culture with NP than after co-culture with CS, suggesting that the sustained release of rhBMP-2 from NP effectively contributed to the differentiation of osteoblasts. In a rat spinal fusion model, the volume and quality of newly formed bone was higher in the NP group than in the CS group. Use of NP results in efficient bone regeneration through sustained release of rhBMP-2 and improves the quality of BMP-induced bone.

Project description:Many biomaterials are used for Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) delivery in bone tissue engineering. The BMP carrier system's primary function is to hold these growth factors at the wound's site for a prolonged time and provide initial support for cells to attach and elaborate the extracellular matrix for bone regeneration. This study aimed to evaluate the nanostructured carbonated hydroxyapatite microspheres (nCHA) as an rhBMP-2 carrier on rats calvaria. A total of fifteen male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups (n = 5): clot (control group), rhBMP-2 associated with collagen membrane (COL/rhBMP-2) or associated with the microspheres (nCHA/rhBMP-2). After 45 days, the calvaria defect samples were evaluated through histological, histomorphometric, and SR-µCT analyses to investigate new-formed bone and connective tissue volume densities. The descriptive histological analysis showed that nCHA/rhBMP-2 improved bone formation compared to other groups. These results were confirmed by histomorphometric and SR-µCT analysis that showed substantially defect area filling with a higher percentage of newly formed (36.24 ± 6.68) bone than those with the COL/rhBMP-2 (0.42 ± 0.40) and Clot (3.84 ± 4.57) (p < 0.05). The results showed that nCHA is an effective carrier for rhBMP-2 encouraging bone healing and an efficient alternative to collagen membrane for rhBMP-2 delivery.

Project description:Background: The reparative regeneration of jawbone defects poses a significant challenge within the field of dentistry. Despite being the gold standard, autogenous bone materials are not without drawbacks, including a heightened risk of postoperative infections. Consequently, the development of innovative materials that can surpass the osteogenic capabilities of autologous bone has emerged as a pivotal area of research. Methods: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), known for their multilineage differentiation potential, were isolated from human umbilical cords and transfected with miR-181a. The osteogenic differentiation of miR-181a/MSC was investigated. Then, physicochemical properties of miR-181a/MSC-loaded nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAC) scaffolds were characterized, and their efficacy and underlying mechanism in rat calvarial defect repair were explored. Results: miR-181a overexpression in MSCs significantly promoted osteogenic differentiation, as evidenced by increased alkaline phosphatase activity and expression of osteogenic markers. The miR-181a/MSC-loaded nHAC scaffolds exhibited favorable bioactivity and accelerated bone tissue repair and collagen secretion in vivo. Mechanistic studies reveal that miR-181a directly targeted the TP53/SLC7A11 pathway, inhibiting ferroptosis and enhancing the osteogenic capacity of MSCs. Conclusions: The study demonstrates that miR-181a/MSC-loaded nHAC scaffolds significantly enhance the repair of bone defects by promoting osteogenic differentiation and inhibiting ferroptosis. These findings provide novel insights into the molecular mechanisms regulating MSC osteogenesis and offer a promising therapeutic strategy for bone defect repair.

Project description:ObjectivesTo assess long-term outcomes of implants placed in conjunction with guided bone regeneration (GBR) with or without recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2).Materials and methodsEleven patients with at least two lateral bone defects (split-mouth design) received a total of 34 implants. The defects were treated with a xenogenic bone substitute with (test) or without (control) rhBMP-2 and covered with a collagen membrane. Eight patients could be reexamined after at least 17 years. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were performed to assess differences between test and control groups.ResultsThe implant survival rate was 100% for all test and control sites. Mean marginal bone levels were 2.51 mm (SD ±1.64) (mesial test), 1.83 mm (SD ±0.93) (mesial control) (p = .055), 2.36 mm (SD ±1.70) (distal test), and 2.13 mm (SD ±0.84) (distal control) (p = 1.000). Compared with the mean values at baseline, a mean bone loss of 1.16 mm (SD ±1.60) (test) and 0.70 mm (SD ±1.02) (control) was found. The mean buccal bone gain after 17 years was 5.38 mm (test) and 3.14 mm (control) based on the comparison between the measurements at the cone beam CT after 17 years and the data from the intraoperative measurements at baseline. Further, mean values for (i) bone thickness ranged from 1.36 to 3.09 mm (test) and 1.18 to 3.39 mm (control) and for (ii) mucosal thickness of 1.24 mm (test) and 1.26 mm (control).ConclusionImplants placed in conjunction with GBR applying a xenogenic bone substitute and a collagen membrane with and without the addition of rhBMP-2 demonstrate excellent clinical and radiographic results after at least 17 years.
