Project description:Calcium phosphate bone cements (CPCs) with antibacterial properties are demanded for clinical applications. In this study, we demonstrated the use of a relatively simple processing route based on preparation of silver-doped CPCs (CPCs-Ag) through the preparation of solid dispersed active powder phase. Real-time monitoring of structural transformations and kinetics of several CPCs-Ag formulations (Ag = 0 wt %, 0.6 wt % and 1.0 wt %) was performed by the Energy Dispersive X-ray Diffraction technique. The partial conversion of ?-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) phase into the dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) took place in all the investigated cement systems. In the pristine cement powders, Ag in its metallic form was found, whereas for CPC-Ag 0.6 wt % and CPC-Ag 1.0 wt % cements, CaAg(PO?)? was detected and Ag (met.) was no longer present. The CPC-Ag 0 wt % cement exhibited a compressive strength of 6.5 ± 1.0 MPa, whereas for the doped cements (CPC-Ag 0.6 wt % and CPC-Ag 1.0 wt %) the reduced values of the compressive strength 4.0 ± 1.0 and 1.5 ± 1.0 MPa, respectively, were detected. Silver-ion release from CPC-Ag 0.6 wt % and CPC-Ag 1.0 wt % cements, measured by the Atomic Emission Spectroscopy, corresponds to the average values of 25 µg/L and 43 µg/L, respectively, rising a plateau after 15 days. The results of the antibacterial test proved the inhibitory effect towards pathogenic Escherichia coli for both CPC-Ag 0.6 wt % and CPC-Ag 1.0 wt % cements, better performances being observed for the cement with a higher Ag-content.

Project description:Repair of segmental bone defects is a challenge in orthopaedics. A bone substitute is a potential solution for this challenge, and angiogenesis and osteogenesis are critical to the performance of scaffold materials. For enhancing angiogenesis and osteogenesis activities of implanted scaffolds, Cu/Zn co-doped calcium phosphate scaffolds carrying GDF-5-release microspheres were prepared and implanted into surgically created critical-sized rabbit radial defects. Radiological examination, histological analysis and biomechanical tests were used to evaluate the bone healing-union. Results showed that, with increasing Cu/Zn concentrations, new bone area, new blood vessel density, and bending failure load all increased significantly. Furthermore, Cu/Zn co-doped scaffolds incorporating GDF-5-release microspheres exhibited further increased angiogenesis and osteogenesis (vs. Cu/Zn co-doped alone), as well as a superior bending failure load. These show that, simultaneous incorporation of trace essential ions and GDF-5 combines pro-angiogenic and pro-osteogenic actions of these bioactive substances, potentially offering an effective approach to assist the healing of critical-sized bone defects.

Project description:Commonly used implants for therapeutic approaches of non-systemically impaired bone do not sufficiently support the healing process of osteoporotic bone. Since strontium (II) has been proven as an effective anti-osteoporotic drug new types of strontium enriched calcium phosphate bone cements were developed. As osteoporosis is characterized by an imbalance of osteoblast and osteoclast activity the influence of this newly generated strontium enriched biomaterials on the cellular behavior of osteoblast-like cells was investigated by time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). ToF-SIMS is used to analyze whether strontium is incorporated in the mineralized extracellular matrix (mECM) and whether there is strontium uptake by osteogenically differentiated human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Therefore hMSCs were cultured in osteogenic differentiation medium for 21 days on two different strontium enriched bone cements (S100 and A10) and for reference also on the pure calcium phosphate cement (CPC) and on a silicon wafer. The distribution of strontium in the osteoblast-like cells and within their mineralized extracellular matrix was analyzed. A higher intensity of the strontium signal could be detected in the region of the mECM, synthesized by cells cultivated on the Sr- substituted bone cement (S100) in comparison to the reference groups. The osteoblast-like cells used the released strontium from the biomaterial to synthesize their mECM. Apart from that a uniform strontium distribution was measured within all investigated cells. However, different amounts of strontium were found in cells cultured on different biomaterials and substrates. Compared to the negative controls the strontium content in the cells on the strontium enriched biomaterials was much higher. A higher concentration of strontium inside the cells means that more strontium can take part in signaling pathways. As strontium is known for its beneficial effects on osteoblasts by promoting osteoblastic cell replication and differentiation, and reducing apoptosis, the newly developed strontium enriched calcium phosphate cements are promising implant materials for osteoporotic bone.

Project description:Calcium phosphate ceramics are frequently applied to stimulate regeneration of bone in view of their excellent biological compatibility with bone tissue. Unfortunately, these bioceramics are also highly brittle. To improve their toughness, fibers can be incorporated as the reinforcing component for the calcium phosphate cements. Herein, we functionalize the surface of poly(vinyl alcohol) fibers with thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) brushes of tunable thickness to improve simultaneously fiber dispersion and fiber-matrix affinity. These brushes shift from hydrophilic to hydrophobic behavior at temperatures above their lower critical solution temperature of 32 °C. This dual thermoresponsive shift favors fiber dispersion throughout the hydrophilic calcium phosphate cements (at 21 °C) and toughens these cements when reaching their hydrophobic state (at 37 °C). The reinforcement efficacy of these surface-modified fibers was almost double at 37 versus 21 °C, which confirms the strong potential of thermoresponsive fibers for reinforcement of calcium phosphate cements.

Project description:Thanks to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, injectability and self-setting properties, calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) have been the most economical and effective biomaterials of choice for use as bone void fillers. They have also been extensively used as drug delivery carriers owing to their ability to provide for a steady release of various organic molecules aiding the regeneration of defective bone, including primarily antibiotics and growth factors. This review provides a systematic compilation of studies that reported on the controlled release of drugs from CPCs in the last 25 years. The chemical, compositional and microstructural characteristics of these systems through which the control of the release rates and mechanisms could be achieved have been discussed. In doing so, the effects of (i) the chemistry of the matrix, (ii) porosity, (iii) additives, (iv) drug types, (v) drug concentrations, (vi) drug loading methods and (vii) release media have been distinguished and discussed individually. Kinetic specificities of in vivo release of drugs from CPCs have been reviewed, too. Understanding the kinetic and mechanistic correlations between the CPC properties and the drug release is a prerequisite for the design of bone void fillers with drug release profiles precisely tailored to the application area and the clinical picture. The goal of this review has been to shed light on these fundamental correlations.

Project description:In this study the binding and assembly of bovine serum albumin (BSA) onto three different calcium phosphate phases (hydroxyapatite, dibasic calcium phosphate dihydrate, and β-tricalcium phosphate) was investigated using a combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). XPS was used to record adsorption isotherms and to quantify the amount of BSA adsorbed onto the different CaP surfaces. On all three surfaces a monolayer of adsorbed BSA was formed. ToF-SIMS was then used to investigate how the structure of BSA changes upon surface binding. ToF-SIMS data from BSA films on the three CaP surfaces showed intensity differences of secondary ions originating from both hydrophobic and hydrophilic amino acids. For a more quantitative examination of structural changes, we developed a ratio comparing the sum of intensities of secondary ions from hydrophobic and hydrophilic residues. A small, but statistically significant, increase in the value of this ratio (7%) was observed between a BSA film on hydroxyapatite versus dibasic calcium phosphate dihydrate. From this ratio we can make some initial hypotheses about what specific changes in BSA structure relate to these differences observed in the ToF-SIMS data.

Project description:The effects of the sintering temperature on microstructures, electrical properties, and dielectric response of 1%Cr3+/Ta5+ co-doped TiO2 (CrTTO) ceramics prepared using a solid-state reaction method were studied. The mean grain size increased with an increasing sintering temperature range of 1300-1500 °C. The dielectric permittivity of CrTTO ceramics sintered at 1300 °C was very low (ε' ∼198). Interestingly, a low loss tangent (tanδ ∼0.03-0.06) and high ε' (∼1.61-1.9 × 104) with a temperature coefficient less than ≤ ±15% in a temperature range of -60 to 150 °C were obtained. The results demonstrated a higher performance property of the acceptor Cr3+/donor Ta5+ co-doped TiO2 ceramics compared to the Ta5+-doped TiO2 and Cr3+-doped TiO2 ceramics. According to a first-principles study, high-performance giant dielectric properties (HPDPs) did not originate from electron-pinned defect dipoles. By impedance spectroscopy (IS), it was suggested that the giant dielectric response was induced by interfacial polarization at the internal interfaces rather than by the formation of complex defect dipoles. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results confirmed the existence of Ti3+, resulting in the formation of semiconducting parts in the bulk ceramics. Low tanδ and excellent temperature stability were due to the high resistance of the insulating layers with a very high potential barrier of ∼2.0 eV.

Project description:It is known that magnesium phosphate cements (MPCs) show appreciable mechanical strength and biocompatibility, but the hydration reaction processes often lead to intense heat release while the hydration products present weak resistance to mechanical decay and low bioactivity. Herein we developed an MPC-based system, which was low-heat-releasing and fast-curing in this study, by compounding with self-curing calcium silicate cements (CSCs). The MPC composed of magnesium oxide (MgO), potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KH2PO4), disodium hydrogen phosphate (Na2HPO4), magnesium hydrogen phosphate trihydrate (MgHPO4·3H2O) and chitosan were weakly basic, which would be more stable in vivo. The physicochemical properties indicated that the addition of CSCs could increase the final setting time while decrease the heat release. Meanwhile, the CSCs could endow MPC substrate with apatite re-mineralization reactivity, especially, which add 25 wt.% CSCs showed the most significant apatite deposition. What's more, the mechanical evolution in buffer demonstrated CSCs could enhance and sustain the mechanical strength during degradation, and the internal constructs of cement implants could still be reconstructed by μCT analysis in rabbit femoral bone defect model in vivo. Particularly, appropriate CSCs adjusted the biodegradation and promoted new bone tissue regeneration in vivo. Totally, the MPC/CSCs composite system endows bioactivity and sustains mechanical strength of the MPC, which may be promising for expending the clinical applications of MPC-based bone cements.

Project description:A novel way of obtaining highly porous cements is foaming them with the use of nonionic surface active agents (surfactants). In this study, foamed calcium phosphate cements (fCPCs) intended for in situ use were fabricated by a surfactant-assisted foaming process. Three different surface active agents, Tween 20, Tween 80 and Tetronic 90R4, were used. The amount of surfactant, based on its critical micelle concentration and cytotoxicity as well as foaming method, was determined. It has been established that in order to avoid cytotoxic effects the concentration of all applied surfactants in the cement liquid phases should not exceed 1.25 g L-1. It was found that Tetronic 90R4 had the lowest cytotoxicity whereas Tween 20 had the highest. The influence of the type of surfactant used in the fabrication process of bioactive macroporous cement on the physicochemical and biological properties of fCPCs was studied. The obtained materials reached higher than 50 vol% open porosity and possessed compressive strength which corresponds to the values for cancellous bone. The highest porosity and compressive strength was found for the material with the addition of Tween 80. In vitro investigations proved the chemical stability and high bioactive potential of the examined materials.

Project description:This study investigated the effects of incorporating glucose microparticles (GMPs) and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microparticles (PLGA MPs) within a calcium phosphate cement on the cement's handling, physicochemical properties, and the respective pore formation. Composites were fabricated with two different weight fractions of GMPs (10 and 20 wt%) and two different weight fractions of PLGA MPs (10 and 20 wt%). Samples were assayed for porosity, pore morphology, and compressive mechanical properties. An in vitro degradation study was also conducted. Samples were exposed to a physiological solution for 3 days, 4 wks, and 8 wks in order to understand how the inclusion of GMPs and PLGA MPs affects the composite's porosity and mass loss over time. GMPs and PLGA MPs were both successfully incorporated within the composites and all formulations showed an initial setting time that is appropriate for clinical applications. Through a main effects analysis, we observed that the incorporation of GMPs had a significant effect on the overall porosity, mean pore size, mode pore size, and in vitro degradation rate of PLGA MPs as early as after 3 days (p < 0.05). After 4 wks and 8 wks, these same properties were affected by the inclusion of both types of MPs (p < 0.05). Advanced polymer chromatography confirmed that the degradation of PLGA MPs coincided with an increase in composite porosity, mean pore size, and mode pore size. Finally, it was observed that the inclusion of GMPs slowed the degradation of PLGA MPs in vitro and reduced the solution acidity due to PLGA degradation products. Our results suggest that the dual inclusion of GMPs and PLGA MPs is a valuable approach for the generation of early macropores, while also mitigating the effect of acidic degradation products from PLGA MPs on their degradation kinetics.Statement of significanceA multitude of strategies and techniques have been investigated for the introduction of macropores with calcium phosphate cements (CPC). However, many of these strategies take several weeks to months to generate a maximal porosity or the degradation products of the porogen can trigger a localized inflammatory response in vivo. As such, it was hypothesized that the fast dissolution of glucose microparticles (GMPs) in a CPC composite also incorporating poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microparticles (MPs) will create an initial macroporosity and increase the surface area within the CPC, thus enhancing the diffusion of PLGA degradation products and preventing a significant decrease in pH. Furthermore, as PLGA degradation occurs over several weeks to months, additional macroporosity will be generated at later time points within CPCs. The results offer a new method for generating macroporosity in a multimodal fashion that also mitigates the effects of acidic degradation products.
