Synthesis of Antibacterial Hybrid Hydroxyapatite/Collagen/Polysaccharide Bioactive Membranes and Their Effect on Osteoblast Culture.

ABSTRACT: Inspired by the composition and confined environment provided by collagen fibrils during bone formation, this study aimed to compare two different strategies to synthesize bioactive hybrid membranes and to assess the role the organic matrix plays as physical confinement during mineral phase deposition. The hybrid membranes were prepared by (1) incorporating calcium phosphate in a biopolymeric membrane for in situ hydroxyapatite (HAp) precipitation in the interstices of the biopolymeric membrane as a confined environment (Methodology 1) or (2) adding synthetic HAp nanoparticles (SHAp) to the freshly prepared biopolymeric membrane (Methodology 2). The biopolymeric membranes were based on hydrolyzed collagen (HC) and chitosan (Cht) or κ-carrageenan (κ-carr). The hybrid membranes presented homogeneous and continuous dispersion of the mineral particles embedded in the biopolymeric membrane interstices and enhanced mechanical properties. The importance of the confined spaces in biomineralization was confirmed by controlled biomimetic HAp precipitation via Methodology 1. HAp precipitation after immersion in simulated body fluid attested that the hybrid membranes were bioactive. Hybrid membranes containing Cht were not toxic to the osteoblasts. Hybrid membranes added with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) displayed antibacterial action against different clinically important pathogenic microorganisms. Overall, these results open simple and promising pathways to develop a new generation of bioactive hybrid membranes with controllable degradation rates and antimicrobial properties.

Synthesis and characterization of chitosan-polyvinyl alcohol-bioactive glass hybrid membranes.

Project description:The tissue engineering strategy is a new approach for the regeneration of cementum, which is essential for the regeneration of the periodontal tissue. This strategy involves the cell cultures present in this tissue, called cementoblasts, and located on an appropriate substrate for posterior implantation in the regeneration site. Prior studies from our research group have shown that the proliferation and viability of cementoblasts increase in the presence of the ionic dissolution products of bioactive glass particles. Therefore, one possible approach to obtaining adequate substrates for cementoblast cultures is the development of composite membranes containing bioactive glass. In the present study, composite films of chitosan-polyvinyl alcohol-bioactive glass containing different glass contents were developed. Glutaraldehyde was also added to allow for the formation of cross-links and changes in the degradation rate. The glass phase was introduced in the material by a sol-gel route, leading to an organic-inorganic hybrid. The films were characterized by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with electron dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Bioactivity tests were also conducted by immersion of the films in simulated body fluid (SBF). Films containing up to 30% glass phase could be obtained. The formation of calcium phosphate was observed after the immersion of the films. A calcium phosphate layer formed more quickly on materials containing higher bioactive glass contents. In the hybrid containing 23% bioactive glass, a complete layer was formed after 24 h immersion, showing the high bioactivity of this material. However, despite the higher in vitro bioactivity, the film with 23% glass showed lower mechanical properties compared with films containing up to 17% glass.

Bioactive Carbon-Based Hybrid 3D Scaffolds for Osteoblast Growth.

Project description:Bone, nerve, and heart tissue engineering place high demands on the conductivity of three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds. Fibrous carbon-based scaffolds are excellent material candidates to fulfill these requirements. Here, we show that highly porous (up to 94%) hybrid 3D framework structures with hierarchical architecture, consisting of microfiber composites of self-entangled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and bioactive nanoparticles are highly suitable for growing cells. The hybrid 3D structures are fabricated by infiltrating a combination of CNTs and bioactive materials into a porous (?94%) zinc oxide (ZnO) sacrificial template, followed by the removal of the ZnO backbone via a H2 thermal reduction process. Simultaneously, the bioactive nanoparticles are sintered. In this way, conductive and mechanically stable 3D composites of free-standing CNT-based microfibers and bioactive nanoparticles are formed. The adopted strategy demonstrates great potential for implementing low-dimensional bioactive materials, such as hydroxyapatite (HA) and bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGN), into 3D carbon-based microfibrous networks. It is demonstrated that the incorporation of HA nanoparticles and BGN promotes the biomineralization ability and the protein adsorption capacity of the scaffolds significantly, as well as fibroblast and osteoblast adhesion. These results demonstrate that the developed carbon-based bioactive scaffolds are promising materials for bone tissue engineering and related applications.

Titanium Membranes with Hydroxyapatite/Titania Bioactive Ceramic Coatings: Characterization and In Vivo Biocompatibility Testing.

Project description:Titanium membranes and meshes are used for the repair of trauma, tumors, and hernia in dentistry and maxillofacial and abdominal surgery. But such membranes demonstrate the limited effectiveness of integration in recipients due to their bioinertness. In this study, we prepared titania oxide (by microarc oxidation) and/or HAp (by electrophoresis deposition) coatings with alginate soaking. We used annealing at 700 °C for 2.5 h for HAp crystallinity increasing with achievement of an acceptable Ca2+ release rate. The feedstock HAp and prepared coatings were characterized by X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy, electron and optical confocal microscopy, and thermal analysis, as well as the in vitro study of solubility in saline and in vivo tests with the animal model of subcutaneous implantation (with Wistar rats). Biocompatible compounds were found for all deposited coatings. We noted that the best biological response was detected for the annealed Ca-P/TiO2 bilayer with alginate binding. In this case, the coating crystallinity was ≈40.5-50.0%. The Ca2+ release rate was 2.042 ± 0.058%/mm2 at 168 h after immersion in saline. Thin and mature tissue capsules with minimal inflammation and vascularization were found in histological sections. We did not detect any unwanted responses around the implants, including inflammation infiltration, suppuration, bacterial infections, tissue lyses, and, finally, implant rejection. This information is expected to be useful for understanding the properties of bioactive ceramic coatings and improving the quality of medical care in dentistry and maxillofacial surgery and other applications of titanium membranes in medicine.

A live imaging-friendly slice culture method using collagen membranes.

Project description:AimOrganotypic brain slice culture preserves the geographical position of neurons and neuronal circuits. The slice cultures also maintain both non-neuronal cell types and the surrounding extracellular matrix. The interface method has been widely used for slice cultures, in which brain slices are placed on semiporous polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membranes. However, a low optical transparency of PTFE membrane makes it difficult to perform live imaging of deep regions of slice cultures using an inverted microscope. To overcome the issue, we evaluated the suitability of using collagen membranes for slice cultures, especially focusing on live imaging of the cellular dynamics of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-expressing microglia.MethodsEntorhinohippocampal slices were cultured on either collagen or PTFE membranes. The influence of membrane type on the ability to observe deep regions of slice cultures was examined by live imaging using an inverted microscope.ResultsCollagen membranes were thinner and had better optical transparency compared with PTFE membranes. There were no differences in cell viability, density of neurons or microglia. The densify of visible short branches of microglia in live imaging was higher in collagen membranes than PTFE membranes.ConclusionCollagen membranes are suitable for live imaging of cellular dynamics in slice cultures using an inverted microscope.

Project description:Regenerative medicine is becoming a rapidly evolving technique in today's biomedical progress scenario. Scientists around the world suggest the use of naturally synthesized biomaterials to repair and heal damaged cells. Hydroxyapatite (HAp) has the potential to replace drugs in biomedical engineering and regenerative drugs. HAp is easily biodegradable, biocompatible, and correlated with macromolecules, which facilitates their incorporation into inorganic materials. This review article provides extensive knowledge on HAp and collagen-containing compositions modified with drugs, bioactive components, metals, and selected nanoparticles. Such compositions consisting of HAp and collagen modified with various additives are used in a variety of biomedical applications such as bone tissue engineering, vascular transplantation, cartilage, and other implantable biomedical devices.

Synthesis of Hybrid Polyphenol/Hydroxyapatite Nanomaterials with Anti-Radical Properties.

Project description:Plant-derived natural bioactive molecules are of great therapeutic potential but, so far, their application in nanomedicine has scarcely been studied. This work aimed at comparing two methodologies, i.e., adsorption and in situ incorporation, to prepare hybrid polyphenol/hydroxyapatite nanoparticles. Two flavonoids, baicalin and its aglycone derivative baicalein, and two phenolic acids derived from caffeic acid, rosmarinic and chlorogenic acids, were studied. Adsorption of these polyphenols on pre-formed hydroxyapatite nanoparticles did not modify particle size or shape and loading was less than 10% (w/w). In contrast, presence of polyphenols during the synthesis of nanoparticles significantly impacted and sometimes fully inhibited hydroxyapatite formation but recovered particles could exhibit higher loadings. For most hybrid particles, release profiles consisted of a 24 h burst effect followed by a slow release over 2 weeks. Antioxidant properties of the polyphenols were preserved after adsorption but not when incorporated in situ. These results provide fruitful clues for the valorization of natural bioactive molecules in nanomedicine.

Synthesis of Hydroxyapatite with Antibacterial Properties Using a Microwave-Assisted Combustion Method.

Project description:The prevention of implant-associated infections has been increasing clinically in orthopedic surgery. Hydroxyapatite with antibacterial properties was synthesized using a microwave-assisted combustion method. High crystallinity at low temperature can be achieved using this method. The synthesized hydroxyapatite exhibited a superior clear zone for both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Electron spin resonance (ESR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used for the radical investigation. The application of intelligent ink testing and an antioxidant assay using DPPH reduction were also used to confirm the existence of radicals. These techniques provided data confirming that radicals are responsible for the antibacterial properties. The synthesized antibacterial hydroxyapatite would be a good candidate for the prevention any infection with medical implants and injection materials causing failure in bone repair.

Bone tissue engineering with a collagen-hydroxyapatite scaffold and culture expanded bone marrow stromal cells.

Project description:Osteoprogenitor cells combined with supportive biomaterials represent a promising approach to advance the standard of care for bone grafting procedures. However, this approach faces challenges, including inconsistent bone formation, cell survival in the implant, and appropriate biomaterial degradation. We have developed a collagen-hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffold that supports consistent osteogenesis by donor-derived osteoprogenitors, and is more easily degraded than a pure ceramic scaffold. Herein, the material properties are characterized as well as cell attachment, viability, and progenitor distribution in vitro. Furthermore, we examined the biological performance in vivo in a critical-size mouse calvarial defect. To aid in the evaluation of the in-house collagen-HA scaffold, the in vivo performance was compared with a commercial collagen-HA scaffold (Healos(®) , Depuy). The in-house collagen-HA scaffold supported consistent bone formation by predominantly donor-derived osteoblasts, nearly completely filling a 3.5 mm calvarial defect with bone in all samples (n?=?5) after 3 weeks of implantation. In terms of bone formation and donor cell retention at 3 weeks postimplantation, no statistical difference was found between the in-house and commercial scaffold following quantitative histomorphometry. The collagen-HA scaffold presented here is an open and well-defined platform that supports robust bone formation and should facilitate the further development of collagen-hydroxyapatite biomaterials for bone tissue engineering.

Synthesis, Characterization, Antibacterial Properties, and In Vitro Studies of Selenium and Strontium Co-Substituted Hydroxyapatite.

Project description:In this study, as a measure to enhance the antimicrobial activity of biomaterials, the selenium ions have been substituted into hydroxyapatite (HA) at different concentration levels. To balance the potential cytotoxic effects of selenite ions (SeO32-) in HA, strontium (Sr2+) was co-substituted at the same concentration. Selenium and strontium-substituted hydroxyapatites (Se-Sr-HA) at equal molar ratios of x Se/(Se + P) and x Sr/(Sr + Ca) at (x = 0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2) were synthesized via the wet precipitation route and sintered at 900 °C. The effect of the two-ion concentration on morphology, surface charge, composition, antibacterial ability, and cell viability were studied. X-ray diffraction verified the phase purity and confirmed the substitution of selenium and strontium ions. Acellular in vitro bioactivity tests revealed that Se-Sr-HA was highly bioactive compared to pure HA. Se-Sr-HA samples showed excellent antibacterial activity against both Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus carnosus) bacterial strains. In vitro cell-material interaction, using human osteosarcoma cells MG-63 studied by WST-8 assay, showed that Se-HA has a cytotoxic effect; however, the co-substitution of strontium in Se-HA offsets the negative impact of selenium and enhanced the biological properties of HA. Hence, the prepared samples are a suitable choice for antibacterial coatings and bone filler applications.

Microstructure, local viscoelasticity and cell culture suitability of 3D hybrid HA/collagen scaffolds.

Project description:As mechanical properties of cell culture substrates matter, methods for mechanical characterization of scaffolds on a relevant length scale are required. We used multiple particle tracking microrheology to close the gap between elasticity determined from bulk measurements and elastic properties sensed by cells. Structure and elasticity of macroporous, three-dimensional cryogel scaffolds from mixtures of hyaluronic acid (HA) and collagen (Coll) were characterized. Both one-component gels formed homogeneous networks, whereas hybrid gels were heterogeneous in terms of elasticity. Most strikingly, local elastic moduli were significantly lower than bulk moduli presumably due to non-equilibrium chain conformations between crosslinks. This was more pronounced in Coll and hybrid gels than in pure HA gels. Local elastic moduli were similar for all gels, irrespective of their different swelling ratio and bulk moduli. Fibroblast cell culture proved the biocompatibility of all investigated compositions. Coll containing gels enabled cell migration, adhesion and proliferation inside the gels.
