Abstract
Modern synthetic technology generally invokes high temperatures to control the hydration level of ceramics, but even the state-of-the-art technology can still only control the overall hydration content. Magically, natural organisms can produce bioceramics with tailorable hydration profiles and crystallization traits solely from amorphous precursors under physiological conditions. To mimic the biomineralization tactic, here, we report pressure-controlled hydration and crystallization in fabricated ceramics, solely from the amorphous precursors of purely inorganic gels (PIGs) synthesized from biocompatible aqueous solutions with most common ions in organisms (Ca2+, Mg2+, CO32-, and PO43-). Transparent ceramic tablets are directly produced by compressing the PIGs under mild pressure, while the pressure regulates the hydration characteristics and the subsequent crystallization behaviors of the synthesized ceramics. Among the various hydration species, the moderately bound and ordered water appears to be a key in regulating the crystallization rate. This nature-inspired study offers deeper insights into the magic behind biomineralization.

Effect of gamma irradiation and supercritical carbon dioxide sterilization with Novakill™ or ethanol on the fracture toughness of cortical bone. J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2024; 112:e35356. [PMID: 38247241 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.35356] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2023] [Revised: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/11/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
Sterilization of structural bone allografts is a critical process prior to their clinical use in large cortical bone defects. Gamma irradiation protocols are known to affect tissue integrity in a dose dependent manner. Alternative sterilization treatments, such as supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2 ), are gaining popularity due to advantages such as minimal exposure to denaturants, the lack of toxic residues, superior tissue penetration, and minor impacts on mechanical properties including strength and stiffness. The impact of SCCO2 on the fracture toughness of bone tissue, however, remains unknown. Here, we evaluate crack initiation and growth toughness after 2, 6, and 24 h SCCO2 -treatment using Novakill™ and ethanol as additives on ~11 samples per group obtained from a pair of femur diaphyses of a canine. All mechanical testing was performed at ambient air after 24 h soaking in Hanks' balanced salt solution (HBSS). Results show no statistically significant difference in the failure characteristics of the Novakill™-treated groups whereas crack growth toughness after 6 and 24 h of treatment with ethanol significantly increases by 37% (p = .010) and 34% (p = .038), respectively, compared to an untreated control group. In contrast, standard 25 kGy gamma irradiation causes significantly reduced crack growth resistance by 40% (p = .007) compared to untreated bone. FTIR vibrational spectroscopy, conducted after testing, reveals a consistent trend of statistically significant differences (p < .001) with fracture toughness. These trends align with variations in the ratios of enzymatic mature to immature crosslinks in the collagen structure, suggesting a potential association with fracture toughness. Additional Raman spectroscopy after testing shows a similar trend with statistically significant differences (p < .005), which further supports that collagen structural changes occur in the SCF-treated groups with ethanol after 6 and 24 h. Our work reveals the benefits of SCCO2 sterilization compared to gamma irradiation.

Abstract
The process and mechanism of biomineralization and relevant physicochemical properties of mineral crystals are remarkably sophisticated multidisciplinary fields that include biology, chemistry, physics, and materials science. The components of the organic matter, structural construction of minerals, and related mechanical interaction, etc., could help to reveal the unique nature of the special mineralization process. Herein, the paper provides an overview of the biomineralization process from the perspective of molecular vibrational spectroscopy, including the physicochemical properties of biomineralized tissues, from physiological to applied mineralization. These physicochemical characteristics closely to the hierarchical mineralization process include biological crystal defects, chemical bonding, atomic doping, structural changes, and content changes in organic matter, along with the interface between biocrystals and organic matter as well as the specific mechanical effects for hardness and toughness. Based on those observations, the special physiological properties of mineralization for enamel and bone, as well as the possible mechanism of pathological mineralization and calcification such as atherosclerosis, tumor micro mineralization, and urolithiasis are also reviewed and discussed. Indeed, the clearly defined physicochemical properties of mineral crystals could pave the way for studies on the mechanisms and applications.

Abstract
Raman microspectroscopy and X-ray microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) were used for assessment of the quality of the femur and tibia bones in apolipoprotein-deficient mice compared to control littermates. The cortical and trabecular bone was investigated separately. Raman spectra revealed no differences in the bioapatite-to-collagenous matrix ratio of the cortical bone. The quantities of calcium and collagen, which were measured using atomic absorption spectrometry and thermogravimetric analysis, respectively, were also found to be equal in the two groups. Density and morphometric parameters, which were measured using micro-CT, verified the cortical mineral stability. Bone quality indices were measured using Raman spectra. A decreased collagen crosslink (trivalent-to-divalent) ratio revealed delayed maturation of the collagen network. Such a decrease has been reported in the literature to be connected to decreased bone strength. For the trabecular bone, micro-CT revealed severe osteoporosis in the knock-out group, which was evident from a decreased mineral density, trabecular thickness and increased bone surface/volume ratio. The trabecular bone was not accessible for Raman spectroscopy. According to these results, the cortical and trabecular femur bone is expected to exhibit proneness to fracturing, each for a different reason. A combination of the two techniques was regarded as necessary for an overall assessment of bone quality.

Abstract
Critical bone defect repair remains a major medical challenge. Developing biocompatible materials with bone-healing ability is a key field of research, and calcium-deficient apatites (CDA) are appealing bioactive candidates. We previously described a method to cover activated carbon cloths (ACC) with CDA or strontium-doped CDA coatings to generate bone patches. Our previous study in rats revealed that apposition of ACC or ACC/CDA patches on cortical bone defects accelerated bone repair in the short term. This study aimed to analyze in the medium term the reconstruction of cortical bone in the presence of ACC/CDA or ACC/10Sr-CDA patches corresponding to 6 at.% of strontium substitution. It also aimed to examine the behavior of these cloths in the medium and long term, in situ and at distance. Our results at day 26 confirm the particular efficacy of strontium-doped patches on bone reconstruction, leading to new thick bone with high bone quality as quantified by Raman microspectroscopy. At 6 months the biocompatibility and complete osteointegration of these carbon cloths and the absence of micrometric carbon debris, either out of the implantation site or within peripheral organs, was confirmed. These results demonstrate that these composite carbon patches are promising biomaterials to accelerate bone reconstruction.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite formation on endodontic hydraulic calcium silicate cements (HCSCs) plays a significant role in sealing the root canal system and elevating the hard-tissue inductivity of the materials. This study evaluated the in vivo apatite-forming ability of 13 new-generation HCSCs using an original HCSC (white ProRoot MTA: PR) as a positive control. The HCSCs were loaded into polytetrafluoroethylene tubes and implanted in the subcutaneous tissue of 4-week-old male Wistar rats. At 28 days after implantation, hydroxyapatite formation on the HCSC implants was assessed with micro-Raman spectroscopy, surface ultrastructural and elemental characterization, and elemental mapping of the material-tissue interface. Seven new-generation HCSCs and PR had a Raman band for hydroxyapatite (v1 PO43- band at 960 cm-1) and hydroxyapatite-like calcium-phosphorus-rich spherical precipitates on the surfaces. The other six HCSCs with neither the hydroxyapatite Raman band nor hydroxyapatite-like spherical precipitates did not show calcium-phosphorus-rich hydroxyapatite-layer-like regions in the elemental mapping. These results indicated that 6 of the 13 new-generation HCSCs possessed little or no ability to produce hydroxyapatite in vivo, unlike PR. The weak in vivo apatite-forming ability of the six HCSCs may have a negative impact on their clinical performance.

Metacarpophalangeal Joint Pathology and Bone Mineral Density Increase with Exercise but Not with Incidence of Proximal Sesamoid Bone Fracture in Thoroughbred Racehorses.

Abstract
Proximal sesamoid bone (PSB) fracture is the leading cause of fatal musculoskeletal injury in Thoroughbred racehorses in Hong Kong and the US. Efforts are underway to investigate diagnostic modalities that could help identify racehorses at increased risk of fracture; however, features associated with PSB fracture risk are still poorly understood. The objectives of this study were to (1) investigate third metacarpal (MC3) and PSB density and mineral content using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), computed tomography (CT), Raman spectroscopy, and ash fraction measurements, and (2) investigate PSB quality and metacarpophalangeal joint (MCPJ) pathology using Raman spectroscopy and CT. Forelimbs were collected from 29 Thoroughbred racehorse cadavers (n = 14 PSB fracture, n = 15 control) for DXA and CT imaging, and PSBs were sectioned for Raman spectroscopy and ash fraction measurements. Bone mineral density (BMD) was greater in MC3 condyles and PSBs of horses with more high-speed furlongs. MCPJ pathology, including palmar osteochondral disease (POD), MC3 condylar sclerosis, and MC3 subchondral lysis were greater in horses with more high-speed furlongs. There were no differences in BMD or Raman parameters between fracture and control groups; however, Raman spectroscopy and ash fraction measurements revealed regional differences in PSB BMD and tissue composition. Many parameters, including MC3 and PSB bone mineral density, were strongly correlated with total high-speed furlongs.

Abstract
Individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have a greater risk of bone fracture compared with those with normal glucose tolerance (NGT). In contrast, individuals with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) have a lower or similar risk of fracture. Our objective was to understand how progressive glycemic derangement affects advanced glycation endproduct (AGE) content, composition, and mechanical properties of iliac bone from postmenopausal women with NGT (n = 35, age = 65 ± 7 years, HbA1c = 5.8% ± 0.3%), IGT (n = 26, age = 64 ± 5 years, HbA1c = 6.0% ± 0.4%), and T2DM on insulin (n = 25, age = 64 ± 6 years, HbA1c = 9.1% ± 2.2%). AGEs were assessed in all samples using high-performance liquid chromatography to measure pentosidine and in NGT/T2DM samples using multiphoton microscopy to spatially resolve the density of fluorescent AGEs (fAGEs). A subset of samples (n = 14 NGT, n = 14 T2DM) was analyzed with nanoindentation and Raman microscopy. Bone tissue from the T2DM group had greater concentrations of (i) pentosidine versus IGT (cortical +24%, p = 0.087; trabecular +35%, p = 0.007) and versus NGT (cortical +40%, p = 0.003; trabecular +35%, p = 0.004) and (ii) fAGE cross-link density versus NGT (cortical +71%, p < 0.001; trabecular +44%, p < 0.001). Bone pentosidine content in the IGT group was lower than in the T2DM group and did not differ from the NGT group, indicating that the greater AGE content observed in T2DM occurs with progressive diabetes. Individuals with T2DM on metformin had lower cortical bone pentosidine compared with individuals not on metformin (-35%, p = 0.017). Cortical bone from the T2DM group was stiffer (+9%, p = 0.021) and harder (+8%, p = 0.039) versus the NGT group. Bone tissue AGEs, which embrittle bone, increased with worsening glycemic control assessed by HbA1c (Pen: R2 = 0.28, p < 0.001; fAGE density: R2 = 0.30, p < 0.001). These relationships suggest a potential mechanism by which bone fragility may increase despite greater tissue stiffness and hardness in individuals with T2DM; our results suggest that it occurs in the transition from IGT to overt T2DM. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Cortical bone material / compositional properties in growing children and young adults aged 1.5-23 years, as a function of gender, age, metabolic activity, and growth spurt. Bone 2022; 165:116548. [PMID: 36122648 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2022.116548] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2022] [Revised: 06/22/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/02/2022]
Abstract
Bone material / compositional properties are significant determinants of bone quality, thus strength. Raman spectroscopic analysis provides information on the quantity and quality of all three bone tissue components (mineral, organic matrix, and tissue water). The overwhelming majority of the published reports on the subject concern adults. We have previously reported on these properties in growing children and young adults, in the cancellous compartment. The purpose of the present study was to create normative reference data of bone material / compositional properties for children and young adults, in the cortical compartment. We performed Raman (Senterra (Bruker Optik GmbH), 50× objective, with an excitation of 785 nm (100 mW) and a lateral resolution of ~0.6 μm) microspectroscopic analysis of transiliac bone samples from 54 individuals between 1.5 and 23 years of age, with no known metabolic bone disease, and which have been previously used to establish histomorphometric, bone mineralization density distribution, and cancellous bone quality reference values. The bone quality indices that were determined were: mineral/matrix ratio (MM) from the integrated areas of the v2PO4 (410-460 cm-1) and the amide III (1215-1300 cm-1) bands, tissue water in nanopores approximated by the ratio of the integrated spectral area ~ 494-509 cm-1 to Amide III band, the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content (ratio of integrated area 1365-1390 cm-1 to the Amide III band, the sulfated proteoglycan (sPG) content as the ratio of the integrated peaks ~1062 cm-1 and 1365-1390 cm-1, the pyridinoline (Pyd) content estimated from the ratio of the absorbance height at 1660 cm-1 / area of the amide I (1620-1700 cm-1) band, and the mineral maturity / crystallinity (MMC) estimated from the inverse of the full width at half height of the v1PO4 (930-980 cm-1) band. Analyses were performed at the three distinct cortical surfaces (endosteal, osteonal, periosteal) at specific anatomical microlocations, namely the osteoid, and the three precisely known tissue ages based on the presence of fluorescence double labels. Measurements were also taken in interstitial bone, a much older tissue that has undergone extensive secondary mineralization. Overall, significant dependencies of the measured parameters on tissue age were observed, while at any given tissue age, sex and subject age were minimal confounders. The established Raman database in the cortical compartments complements the previously published one in cancellous bone, and provides healthy baseline bone quality indices that may serve as a valuable tool to identify alterations due to pediatric disease.

Abstract
Initial-stage prenucleation clusters (PNCs) are critical in calcium phosphate (CaP) biomineralization and thus the formation mechanisms of human bones and teeth. However, several features of PNCs require further examination, e.g., structure, ionic stoichiometry, kinetics, thermodynamics, and nucleation mechanism. In this study, we used poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)-Ca(Eu) complexes with partial Eu3+ substitution as pre-PNCs and established a fluorescence method to study PNC formation in situ based on Eu-O charge-transfer transitions. The kinetics and thermodynamics of PNC formation were explored by probing the fluorescence changes of Eu-O charge-transfer transitions during bonding between the pre-PNCs and PO43-. PNC formation was consistent with the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isothermal adsorption models. The flexible structures of PNCs aided in regulating the subsequent nucleation and crystallization. This study provides an in situ fluorescence probing method with critical guiding significance in addressing the features of PNC formation, in addition to biomineralization.

Abstract
Unilateral condylar hyperplasia (UCH) of the temporomandibular joint is a progressive deformation of the mandibular condyle of unknown origin. UCH is characterized by excessive growth of the condylar head and neck, leading to an increase in size and volume. The aim of this study was to investigate the characteristics of the bone in patients with UCH using microcomputed tomography (micro-CT), histology, and Raman microspectroscopy. The mandibular condyles of six patients with UCH were analysed using micro-CT, histology, and Raman microspectrometry and imaging, and the results were compared with those obtained for a normal control subject. Three-dimensional micro-CT models revealed focal abnormalities of the bone microarchitecture, with foci of osteosclerosis. Histological sections showed that these foci included islands of calcified cartilage matrix with live chondrocytes. Raman analysis revealed that the cartilage matrix was more heavily calcified than the bone matrix and that the cartilage could be identified by the phenylalanine (PHE) band of its matrix, as well as by its glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content. The persistence of foci of live and active chondrocytes within the bone matrix is intriguing and appears to be pathognomonic of UCH. These new findings on UCH could help to determine its pathophysiology and thus prevent this disease, which can lead to major facial deformity.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) therapies are frequently evaluated by bone mineral density (BMD) gains against patients receiving placebo (calcium and vitamin D supplementation, a mild bone turnover-suppressing intervention), which is not equivalent to either healthy or treatment-naive PMOP. The aim of the present observational study was to assess the effects of TPTD treatment in PMOP (20 μg, once daily) at 6 (TPTD 6m; n = 28, age 65 ± 7.3 years), and 24 (TPTD 24m; n = 32, age 67.4 ± 6.15 years) months on bone quality indices at actively forming trabecular surfaces (with fluorescent double labels). Data from the TPTD-treated PMOP patients were compared with those in healthy adult premenopausal women (HC; n = 62, age 40.5 ± 10.6 years), and PMOP receiving placebo (PMOP-PLC; n = 94, age 70.6 ± 4.5 years). Iliac crest biopsies were analyzed by Raman microspectroscopy at three distinct tissue ages: mid-distance between the second label and the bone surface, mid-distance between the two labels, and 1 μm behind the first label. Mineral to matrix ratio (MM), mineral maturity/crystallinity (MMC), tissue water (TW), glycosaminoglycan (GAGs), and pyridinoline (Pyd) content were determined. Outcomes were compared by ANCOVA with subject age and tissue age as covariates, and health status as a fixed factor, followed by Sidak's post-hoc testing (significance assigned to p < 0.05). Both TPTD groups increased MM compared to PMOP-PLC. While TPTD 6m had values similar to HC, TPTD 24m had higher values compared to either HC or TPTD 6m. Both TPTD groups had lower MMC values compared to PMOP-PLC and similar to HC. TPTD 6m patients had higher TW content compared to HC, while TPTD 24m had values similar to HC and lower than either PMOP-PLC or TPTD 6m. Both TPTD groups had lower GAG content compared to HC group, while TPTD 6m had higher values compared to PMOP-PLC. Finally, TPTD 6m patients had higher Pyd content compared to HC and lower compared to PMOP-PLC, while TPTD 24m had lower values compared to PMOP-PLC and TPTD 6m, and similar to HC group. The results of the present study indicate that effects of TPTD on forming trabecular bone quality indices depend on treatment duration. At the recommended length of 24 m, TPTD restores bone mineral and organic matrix quality indices (MMC, TW, Pyd content) to premenopausal healthy (HC) levels.

Bone Matrix Mineralization and Response to Burosumab in Adult Patients With X-Linked Hypophosphatemia: Results From the Phase 3, Single-Arm International Trial. J Bone Miner Res 2022; 37:1665-1678.

Abstract
X-linked hypophosphatemia (XLH) is characterized by excess fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) secretion, renal phosphate wasting, and low 1,25(OH)2 D3 . Adult patients present with osteomalacia, hypomineralized periosteocytic lesions, bone fragility, and pain. Burosumab is a fully human monoclonal FGF23 antibody approved for XLH treatment. UX023-CL304 was an open-label, phase 3 study investigating the effects of burosumab on osteomalacia in adults with XLH, who remained untreated at least 2 years prior enrollment. Here, we present the effect of burosumab on bone material properties. We analyzed transiliac bone biopsy samples from 11 individuals before and after 48 weeks of subcutaneous burosumab treatment (1.0 mg/kg administered every 4 weeks). We used quantitative backscattered electron imaging (qBEI) and Fourier transform infrared imaging (FTIRI) to assess bone mineralization density distribution (BMDD), mineralized bone volume, properties of the organic matrix, and size of periosteocytic lesions. The outcomes were compared with reference values from healthy adults and with four XLH patients either untreated or treated by conventional therapy. Prior to burosumab, the average mineralization in cancellous bone was lower than in healthy reference. CaLow, the fraction of lowly mineralized matrix, and CaHigh, the fraction of highly mineralized matrix, were both elevated resulting in a broad heterogeneity in mineralization (CaWidth). Burosumab resulted in a decrease of CaHigh toward normal range, whereas CaLow and CaWidth remained elevated. The mineralized bone volume was notably increased (+35.9%). The size of the periosteocytic lesions was variable but lower than in untreated XLH patients. FTIRI indicated decreased enzymatic collagen crosslink ratio heterogeneity. In summary, matrix mineralization in XLH is very heterogeneous. Highly mineralized regions represent old bone packets, probably protected from osteoclastic resorption by osteoid seams. The concomitant decrease of highly mineralized matrix, persistence of lowly mineralized matrix, and increase in mineralized bone volume after burosumab suggest a boost in mineralization of preexisting unmineralized or very lowly mineralized matrix, providing a potential explanation for previously observed improved osteomalacia. © 2022 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
Apatites are one of the most intensively studied materials for possible biomedical applications. New perspectives of possible application of apatites correspond with the development of nanomaterials and nanocompounds. Here, an effort to systematize different kinds of human bioapatites forming bones, dentin, and enamel was undertaken. The precursors of bioapatites and hydroxyapatite were also considered. The rigorous consideration of compositions and stoichiometry of bioapatites allowed us to establish an order in their mutual sequence. The chemical reactions describing potential transformations of biomaterials from octacalcium phosphate into hydroxyapatite via all intermediate stages were postulated. Regardless of whether the reactions occur in reality, all apatite biomaterials behave as if they participate in them. To conserve the charge, additional free charges were introduced, with an assumed meaning to be joined with the defects. The distribution of defects was coupled with the values of crystallographic parameters “a” and “c”. The energetic balances of bioapatite transformations were calculated. The apatite biomaterials are surprisingly regular structures with non-integer stoichiometric coefficients. The results presented here will be helpful for the further design and development of nanomaterials.

Abstract
Fouling at interfaces deteriorates the efficiency and hygiene of processes within numerous industrial sectors, including the oil and gas, biomedical device, and food industries. In the food industry, the fouling of a complex food matrix to a heated stainless steel surface reduces production efficiency by increasing heating resistance, pumping requirements, and the frequency of cleaning operations. In this work, quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) was used to study the interface formed by the fouling of milk on a stainless steel surface at different flow rates and protein concentrations at high temperatures (135 °C). Subsequently, the QCM-D response was recorded during the cleaning of the foulant. Two phases of fouling were identified. During phase-1, the fouling rate was dependent on the flow rate, while the fouling rate during phase-2 was dependent on the flow rate and protein concentration. During cleaning, foulants deposited at the higher flow rate swelled more than those deposited at the lower flow rate. The composition of the fouling deposits consisted of both protein and mineral species. Two crystalline phases of calcium phosphate, β-tricalcium phosphate and hydroxyapatite, were identified at both flow rates. Stratification in topography was observed across the surface of the QCM-D sensor with a brittle and cracked structure for deposits formed at 0.2 mL/min and a smooth and close-packed structure for deposits formed at 0.1 mL/min. These stratifications in the composition and topography were correlated to differences in the reaction time and flow dynamics at different flow rates. This high-temperature application of QCM-D to complex food systems illuminates the initial interaction between proteins and minerals and a stainless steel surface, which might otherwise be undetectable in low-temperature applications of QCM-D or at larger bench and industrial scales. The methods and results presented here have implications for optimizing processing scenarios that limit fouling formation while also enhancing removal during cleaning.

Abstract
Amorphous calcium phosphate-based materials are of major interest in the field of bone substitution. Very recently, the low-temperature synthesis of a new family of amorphous calcium phosphate containing both orthophosphate and pyrophosphate ions in controlled proportions has been reported. Despite their interest, especially due to the biochemical role and the hydrolysis of pyrophosphate occurring in vivo, the behavior of such materials when interacting with aqueous media has never been described. Consequently, we herein report the in vitro acellular evolution of three compositions of mixed calcium ortho- and pyrophosphate amorphous materials including a different orthophosphate proportion. As a first step to assess the physicochemical reactivity of these amorphous materials, they were tested in two different media at 37 °C, acidified water and simulated body fluid solution, from 1 h up to 15 days. The results demonstrated that they were quite stable and that they progressively released part of their constitutive ions, highlighting their potential for controlled delivery of bioactive ions (calcium, orthophosphate, and pyrophosphate ions). In addition to these properties, we showed that the material with the highest ortho/(ortho + pyro) phosphate ratio started to crystallize into nanocrystalline apatite analogous to bone mineral within 2 days or 2 weeks depending on the medium. For the other material compositions, no layer of apatite was detected at their surface with SBF testing despite the favorable supersaturation indexes, crystallization being probably inhibited by pyrophosphate ions released in the medium. This varying apatite-forming ability emphasizes the key role of the ortho/(ortho + pyro) phosphate ratio of these materials in their in vitro reactivity and bioactivity, which paves the way for the development of this promising family of amorphous calcium phosphate materials with tunable physicochemical and biological properties.

Abstract
Previous studies of ovariectomized (OVX) monkeys, treated with recombinant human parathyroid hormone (PTH) (1-34) at 1 or 5 μg/kg/day for 18 months or for 12 months followed by 6 months withdrawal from treatment, displayed significant changes in geometry, histomorphometry, and bone quality, but without strict tissue age criteria, of the midshaft humerus. Since bone quality significantly depends on tissue age among other factors, the aim of the present study was to establish the bone-turnover independent effects of two doses of PTH, as well as the effects of treatment withdrawal on bone quality by measuring bone material composition at precisely known tissue ages ranging from osteoid, to mineralized tissue older than 373 days. Raman microspectroscopic analysis of bone tissue from the mid-shaft humerus of OVX monkeys demonstrated that the clinically relevant dose of PTH administered for 18 months reverses the effects of ovariectomy on bone quality when compared against SHAM. Both doses investigated in this study restore the mineralization regulation mechanisms to SHAM levels. The study also showed that the beneficial effects induced by 12 months of clinically relevant PTH therapy were sustained after six months of therapy withdrawal.

Abstract
A highly bioactive glass solvBG76 in a binary system 76SiO2-24CaO (wt%) was prepared following a solvothermal path of the synthesis. The facile synthesis, in terms of the steps and reagents needed, enabled the achievement of a mesoporous material. Many factors such as nano-size (<50 nm), different morphology (non-spherical), use of an unconventional network modifier (calcium hydroxide) during the synthesis, a structure free of crystalline impurities, and textural properties greatly enhanced the kinetic deposition process of hydroxyapatite (HA) when contacting with physiological fluids. The formation of a HA layer on the glass was analyzed by various techniques, namely XRD, IR-ATR, Raman, XPS, EDS analyses, SEM, and HR-TEM imaging. The results obtained were compared to the 45S5 glass tested as a reference biomaterial as well as 70S30C-a glass with similar size and composition to reported solvBG76 but obtained by the conventional sol-gel method. For the first time, superior apatite-mineralization ability in less than 1 h in a physiological-like buffer was achieved. This unique bioactivity is accompanied by biocompatibility and hemocompatibility, which was indicated by a set of various assays in human dermal fibroblasts and MC3T3 mouse osteoblast precursor cells, as well as hemolytic activity determination.

Abstract
Amorphous calcium phosphates (ACPs) represent a metastable amorphous state of other calcium orthophosphates (abbreviated as CaPO4) possessing variable compositional but rather identical glass-like physical properties, in which there are neither translational nor orientational long-range orders of the atomic positions. In nature, ACPs of a biological origin are found in the calcified tissues of mammals, some parts of primitive organisms, as well as in the mammalian milk. Manmade ACPs can be synthesized in a laboratory by various methods including wet-chemical precipitation, in which they are the first solid phases, precipitated after a rapid mixing of aqueous solutions containing dissolved ions of Ca2+ and PO43- in sufficient amounts. Due to the amorphous nature, all types of synthetic ACPs appear to be thermodynamically unstable and, unless stored in dry conditions or doped by stabilizers, they tend to transform spontaneously to crystalline CaPO4, mainly to ones with an apatitic structure. This intrinsic metastability of the ACPs is of a great biological relevance. In particular, the initiating role that metastable ACPs play in matrix vesicle biomineralization raises their importance from a mere laboratory curiosity to that of a reasonable key intermediate in skeletal calcifications. In addition, synthetic ACPs appear to be very promising biomaterials both for manufacturing artificial bone grafts and for dental applications. In this review, the current knowledge on the occurrence, structural design, chemical composition, preparation, properties, and biomedical applications of the synthetic ACPs have been summarized.

Abstract
Biological hydrogels are highly promising materials for bone tissue engineering (BTE) due to their high biocompatibility and biomimetic characteristics. However, for advanced and customized BTE, precise tools for material stabilization and tuning material properties are desired while optimal mineralisation must be ensured. Therefore, reagent-free crosslinking techniques such as high energy electron beam treatment promise effective material modifications without formation of cytotoxic by-products. In the case of the hydrogel gelatin, electron beam crosslinking further induces thermal stability enabling biomedical application at physiological temperatures. In the case of enzymatic mineralisation, induced by Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) and mediated by Calcium Glycerophosphate (CaGP), it is necessary to investigate if electron beam treatment before mineralisation has an influence on the enzymatic activity and thus affects the mineralisation process. The presented study investigates electron beam-treated gelatin hydrogels with previously incorporated ALP and successive mineralisation via incubation in a medium containing CaGP. It could be shown that electron beam treatment optimally maintains enzymatic activity of ALP which allows mineralisation. Furthermore, the precise tuning of material properties such as increasing compressive modulus is possible. This study characterizes the mineralised hydrogels in terms of mineral formation and demonstrates the formation of CaP in dependence of ALP concentration and electron dose. Furthermore, investigations of uniaxial compression stability indicate increased compression moduli for mineralised electron beam-treated gelatin hydrogels. In summary, electron beam-treated mineralized gelatin hydrogels reveal good cytocompatibility for MG-63 osteoblast like cells indicating a high potential for BTE applications.

Measures of Bone Mineral Carbonate Content and Mineral Maturity/Crystallinity for FT-IR and Raman Spectroscopic Imaging Differentially Relate to Physical-Chemical Properties of Carbonate-Substituted Hydroxyapatite. Calcif Tissue Int 2021; 109:77-91.

Abstract
Bone mineral carbonate content assessed by vibrational spectroscopy relates to fracture incidence, and mineral maturity/ crystallinity (MMC) relates to tissue age. As FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy become more widely used to characterize the chemical composition of bone in pre-clinical and translational studies, their bone mineral outcomes require improved validation to inform interpretation of spectroscopic data. In this study, our objectives were (1) to relate Raman and FT-IR carbonate:phosphate ratios calculated through direct integration of peaks to gold-standard analytical measures of carbonate content and underlying subband ratios; (2) to relate Raman and FT-IR MMC measures to gold-standard analytical measures of crystal size in chemical standards and native bone powders. Raman and FT-IR direct integration carbonate:phosphate ratios increased with carbonate content (Raman: p < 0.01, R2 = 0.87; FT-IR: p < 0.01, R2 = 0.96) and Raman was more sensitive to carbonate content than the FT-IR (Raman slope + 95% vs FT-IR slope, p < 0.01). MMC increased with crystal size for both Raman and FT-IR (Raman: p < 0.01, R2 = 0.76; FT-IR p < 0.01, R2 = 0.73) and FT-IR was more sensitive to crystal size than Raman (c-axis length: slope FT-IR MMC + 111% vs Raman MMC, p < 0.01). Additionally, FT-IR but not Raman spectroscopy detected differences in the relationship between MMC and crystal size of carbonated hydroxyapatite (CHA) vs poorly crystalline hydroxyapatites (HA) (slope CHA + 87% vs HA, p < 0.01). Combined, these results contribute to the ability of future studies to elucidate the relationships between carbonate content and fracture and provide insight to the strengths and limitations of FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy of native bone mineral.

Abstract
The objective was to evaluate the effect of the incorporation of calcium hydroxyapatite particles (HAp) in the diametral tensile strength of a conventional type II glass ionomer (GC Gold Label 2) and a resin-modified glass ionomer cement (GC Gold Label 2 LC R). Two experimental HAp (E1HAp or E2HAp) were synthesized and characterized using X-ray diffraction and Confocal Raman spectroscopy. Both HAp were added into the powder of a conventional or resin-modified glass ionomer cement at 5 or 10 wt.%. A commercial HAp (CHAp) was used as reference material. For each glass ionomer cement, a group without the incorporation of HAp was used as a control. A universal testing machine was used for the mechanical test. The results were analyzed through a two-way ANOVA test followed by a complementary Tukey test. For all analyzes, the level of significance was set at α = 0.05. The average particle size for E1Hap was 15 µm, E2HAp was 35 μm and for CHAp was 1 µm. For conventional GIC, the addition of 10% E1HAp and 5% CHAp significantly increased the diametral tensile strength values (p ≤ 0.005). On the other hand, for the resin-modified GIC, except for the 5% E2HAp group, all experimental groups significantly reduced the values of diametral tensile strength (p ≤ 0.007). The addition of HAp improved the mechanical properties only for the conventional glass ionomer cement.

Abstract
Surface structures and physicochemical properties critically influence osseointegration of titanium (Ti) implants. Previous studies have shown that the surface with both micro- and nanoscale roughness may provide multiple features comparable to cell dimensions and thus efficiently regulate cell-material interaction. However, less attention has been made to further optimize the physicochemical properties (e.g., crystalline phase) and to further improve the bioactivity of micro/nanostructured surfaces. Herein, micro/nanostructured titania surfaces with different crystalline phases (amorphous, anatase and anatase/rutile) were prepared and hydroxyapatite (HA) nanorods were deposited onto the as-prepared surfaces by a spin-assisted layer-by-layer assembly method without greatly altering the initial multi-scale morphology and wettability. The effects of crystalline phase, chemical composition and wettability on osteoblast response were investigated. It is noted that all the micro/nanostructured surfaces with/without HA modification presented superamphiphilic. The activities of MC3T3-E1 cells suggested that the proliferation trend on the micro/nanostructured surfaces was greatly influenced by different crystalline phases, and the highest proliferation rate was obtained on the anatase/rutile surface, followed by the anatase; but the cell differentiation and extracellular matrix mineralization were almost the same among them. After ultrathin HA modification on the micro/nanostructured surfaces with different crystalline phases, it exhibited similar proliferation trend as the original surfaces; however, the cell differentiation and extracellular matrix mineralization were significantly improved. The results indicate that the introduction of ultrathin HA to the micro/nanostructured surfaces with optimized crystalline phase benefits cell proliferation, differentiation and maturation, which suggests a favorable biomimetic microenvironment and provides the potential for enhanced implant osseointegration in vivo.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is characterized by an imbalance between bone formation and resorption rates, resulting in bone loss. For ethical reasons, effects of antiosteoporosis drugs are compared against patients receiving vitamin D and calcium supplementation which is a mild antiresorptive regimen. Bone formation may be resolved into two phases: the initial formation of mineral crystals (primary nucleation) and the subsequent mineral accumulation (secondary nucleation and mineral growth) on them. In this study, we used Raman microspectroscopic analysis of iliac crest biopsies from healthy females (N = 108), postmenopausal osteoporosis patients receiving vitamin D and calcium supplementation (PMOP-S; N = 66), and treatment-naïve postmenopausal osteoporosis patients (PMOP-TN; N = 12) to test the hypothesis that at forming trabecular surfaces, mineral maturity / crystallinity of the youngest crystallites associates with the amount of subsequent mineral accumulation. The surfaces of analysis were chosen based on the presence of fluorescent double labels, defining three distinct tissue ages. The results indicated that when adjusted for age and tissue age, there were no differences in amount of mineral formed between healthy females and either PMOP-S or PMOP-TN, while both PMOP-S and PMOP-TN had larger crystallites compared to healthy females. Moreover, significant differences existed between PMOP-S and PMOP-TN in size of initial crystals formed as well as rate of mineral accumulation and maturation. These findings suggest an additional mechanism that may contribute to the decreased mineral content evident in PMOP, and provide a potential target for the development of new interventions. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: We used Raman microspectroscopic analysis of iliac crest biopsies from healthy females and postmenopausal osteoporosis patients (PMOP) receiving placebo to test the hypothesis that at forming trabecular surfaces, mineral maturity / crystallinity (MMC) of the youngest crystallites associates with the amount of subsequent mineral accumulation. This can affect bone mechanical properties as larger crystallites have been shown to result in compromised mechanical attributes; and larger crystallites grow slower compared to smaller ones. The results of the present analysis indicate that increased MMC of the youngest formed mineral may contribute to the bone mineral loss evident in PMOP and the accompanying increased fracture risk independently of bone turnover rate.

Abstract
Post-menopausal osteoporosis is characterized by a negative imbalance between bone formation and bone resorption resulting in a net bone loss, increasing the risk of fracture. One of the earliest interventions to protect against this was hormonal replacement therapy (HRT). Bone strength depends on both the amount and quality of bone, the latter including compositional / material and structural properties. Bone compositional / material properties are greatly dependent on both patient-, and tissue-age. Raman spectroscopy is an analytical tool ideally suited for the determination of bone compositional / material properties as a function of tissue age as it is capable of analyzing areas ~1 × 1 μm2 in tetracycline labeled bone forming areas. Using such analysis of humeri from an ovariectomized primate animal model, we reported that loss of estrogen results in alteration in the mineralization regulation mechanisms by osteoid organic matrix attributes at actively forming bone surfaces. In the present work, we used Raman microspectroscopic techniques to compare osteoid and youngest mineralized tissue composition, as well as relationships between osteoid organic matrix quality and quality attributes of the earliest mineralized tissue in paired iliac crest biopsies obtained from early postmenopausal women before and after two years of HRT therapy. Significant correlations between osteoid proteoglycans, sulfated proteoglycans, pyridinoline, and earliest mineralized tissue mineral content were observed, suggesting that in addition to changes in bone turnover rates, HRT affects the osteoid composition, mineralization regulation mechanisms, and potentially fibrillogenesis.

Abstract
Inhibition of oral biofilm formation is critical to prevent and treat dental caries and periodontal diseases. In this study, we synthesized zwitterionic poly(carboxybetaine) (pCB) based polymer as a nonfouling coating to provide anti-bacterial properties to tooth surfaces. Four catechol derived l-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) groups were conjugated to pCB to serve as a surface anchoring group. The pCB-(DOPA)4 polymer was coated on the hydroxyapatite (HA) and enamel samples by simple immersion and characterized by Raman spectroscopy. The nonfouling effectiveness of the pCB based coating was determined by protein adsorption and bacterial adhesion assays. The coating was transparent on sample surfaces. The protein adsorption was significantly reduced to 8.2% and 6.9%, respectively, on pCB-(DOPA)4 coated HA and enamel samples. The pCB-(DOPA)4 -coated samples also demonstrated significantly fewer adhered Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Streptococcus mutants compared to the control. This novel coating material provides an innovative approach to resist biofilm formation on tooth surfaces and has great potential in future dental clinical applications.

Abstract
Carbon nanohorns (CNHs), a type of nanocarbon, have been studied for the application of drug delivery systems (DDSs) because they are easily functionalized, support bone regeneration, can be used to perform photohyperthermia, have low toxicity, and are easily phagocytosed by macrophages. To take advantage of these features of CNHs, we developed a DDS for the local treatment of bone metastasis by loading the antibone resorption drug ibandronate (IBN) onto CNHs. The poor adsorption of IBN onto CNHs due to the weak hydrophilic-hydrophobic interaction was overcome by using calcium phosphates (CaPs) as mediators. In the fabrication process, we used oxidized CNH (OxCNH), which is less hydrophobic, onto which IBN was coprecipitated with CaP from a labile supersaturated CaP solution. OxCNH-CaP-IBN composite nanoparticles exerted stronger cell-suppressive effects than OxCNH and IBN in both murine macrophages (RAW264.7 cells) and osteoclasts (differentiated from RAW264.7 cells). OxCNH-CaP-IBN composite nanoparticles were efficiently phagocytosed by macrophage cells, where they specifically accumulated in lysosomes. The stronger cell-suppressive effects were likely due to intracellular delivery of IBN, i.e., the release of IBN from OxCNH-CaP-IBN composite nanoparticles via dissociation of CaP in the acidic environment of lysosomes. Our findings suggest that OxCNH-CaP-IBN composite nanoparticles are potentially useful for the local treatment of metastatic bone destruction.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients are at an increased risk of fracture despite normal to high bone mineral density (BMD) values. In this cross-sectional study we establish bone compositional properties in tetracycline labeled iliac crest biopsies from premenopausal women diagnosed with T2DM (N = 26). Within group comparisons were made as a function of tissue age (TA), presence of chronic complications (CC), glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, and morphometric fracture (MFx). We also compared these data at actively trabecular bone forming surfaces against sex- and age-matched healthy controls (N = 32). The bone quality indices determined by Raman microspectroscopic analysis were: mineral/matrix (MM), tissue water content (nanoporosity; NanoP), mineral maturity/crystallinity (MMC), and glycosaminoglycan (GAG), pyridinoline (Pyd), N-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), and pentosidine (PEN) content. Within the T2DM group, at the oldest tissue, CML and PEN contents were significantly elevated in the cancellous compared to cortical compartment. The outcomes were not dependent on MFx. On the other hand, both were significantly elevated in patients with CC, as well as those with HbA1c levels > 7%. At actively forming surfaces, the cortical compartment had higher NanoP compared to cancellous. Still within the T2DM group, patients with MFx had significantly elevated MM and GAGs compared to the ones that did not. At actively forming trabecular surfaces, compared to healthy women, T2DM patients had elevated GAGs content and MMC. The results of this study indicate increased AGEs in those with poor glycation control and chronic complications. Additionally, T2DM patients had elevated MMC and decreased GAGs content compared to healthy controls. These alterations may be contributing to the T2DM inherent elevated fracture risk and suggest a role for hyperglycemia on bone quality.

Abstract
As the application of Raman spectroscopy to study bone has grown over the past decade, making it a peer technology to FTIR spectroscopy, it has become critical to understand their complimentary roles. Recent technological advancements have allowed these techniques to collect grids of spectra in a spatially resolved fashion to generate compositional images. The advantage of imaging with these techniques is that it allows the heterogenous bone tissue composition to be resolved and quantified. In this review we compare, for non-experts in the field of vibrational spectroscopy, the instrumentation and underlying physical principles of FTIR imaging (FTIRI) and Raman imaging. Additionally, we discuss the strengths and limitations of FTIR and Raman spectroscopy, address sample preparation, and discuss outcomes to provide researchers insight into which techniques are best suited for a given research question. We then briefly discuss previous applications of FTIRI and Raman imaging to characterize bone tissue composition and relationships of compositional outcomes with mechanical performance. Finally, we discuss emerging technical developments in FTIRI and Raman imaging which provide new opportunities to identify changes in bone tissue composition with disease, age, and drug treatment.

Abstract
Increased extracellular Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]ex) trigger activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in monocytes through calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). To prevent extraosseous calcification in vivo, the serum protein fetuin-A stabilizes calcium and phosphate into 70-100 nm-sized colloidal calciprotein particles (CPPs). Here we show that monocytes engulf CPPs via macropinocytosis, and this process is strictly dependent on CaSR signaling triggered by increases in [Ca2+]ex. Enhanced macropinocytosis of CPPs results in increased lysosomal activity, NLRP3 inflammasome activation, and IL-1β release. Monocytes in the context of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) exhibit increased CPP uptake and IL-1β release in response to CaSR signaling. CaSR expression in these monocytes and local [Ca2+] in afflicted joints are increased, probably contributing to this enhanced response. We propose that CaSR-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome activation contributes to inflammatory arthritis and systemic inflammation not only in RA, but possibly also in other inflammatory conditions. Inhibition of CaSR-mediated CPP uptake might be a therapeutic approach to treating RA.

Apatite from NWA 10153 and NWA 10645—The Key to Deciphering Magmatic and Fluid Evolution History in Nakhlites. MINERALS 2019.

Abstract
Apatites from Martian nakhlites NWA 10153 and NWA 10645 were used to obtain insight into their crystallization environment and the subsequent postcrystallization evolution path. The research results acquired using multi-tool analyses show distinctive transformation processes that were not fully completed. The crystallization history of three apatite generations (OH-bearing, Cl-rich fluorapatite as well as OH-poor, F-rich chlorapatite and fluorapatite) were reconstructed using transmission electron microscopy and geochemical analyses. Magmatic OH-bearing, Cl-rich fluorapatite changed its primary composition and evolved toward OH-poor, F-rich chlorapatite because of its interaction with fluids. Degassing of restitic magma causes fluorapatite crystallization, which shows a strong structural affinity for the last episode of system evolution. In addition to the three apatite generations, a fourth amorphous phase of calcium phosphate has been identified with Raman spectroscopy. This amorphous phase may be considered a transition phase between magmatic and hydrothermal phases. It may give insight into the dissolution process of magmatic phosphates, help in processing reconstruction, and allow to decipher mineral interactions with hydrothermal fluids.

Organic matrix quality discriminates between age- and BMD-matched fracturing versus non-fracturing post-menopausal women: A pilot study. Bone 2019; 127:207-214.

Abstract
Women with similar areal Bone Mineral Densities (BMD) may show divergent fracture incidence due to differences in bone quality. The hypothesis tested in the present pilot study is that postmenopausal (PM) women who have sustained osteoporotic fractures have altered organic matrix quality compared to those who have not. We used Raman microspectroscopy to analyze transiliac biopsies collected from fracturing (n = 6, mean age 62.5 ± 7.4 yrs; Cases) and non-fracturing PM women (n = 6, age- and BMD-matched; mean age 62.2 ± 7.3 yrs; Controls). Previous results show differences in intrinsic material properties by nanoindentation that are more homogenously distributed and could facilitate microcrack propagation in Cases, along with lower mineral carbonate/phosphate ratio by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic imaging, and no differences in bone tissue mineralization by digitized microradiography. No differences between groups were seen by conventional histomorphometry. Spectra were acquired 2 μm away from previously performed nanoindents, in cortical and cancellous compartments. The determined parameters were: mineral to matrix ratio (MM), and nanoporosity (a surrogate for tissue water (TW)), glycosaminoglycan (GAG), pyridinoline (Pyd; trivalent enzymatic collagen cross-link), N(6)-carboxymethyllysine (CML; advanced glycation endproduct), and pentosidine (PEN; advanced glycation endproduct) content. ANCOVA indicated no differences in any of the spectroscopic outcomes between cancellous and cortical compartments. On the other hand, Cases had lower nanoporosity (TW) and GAG, and elevated Pyd, and CML content compared to Controls. In conclusion, the results of the present study indicate significant differences in organic matrix quality in PM women that sustain fragility fractures versus age- and BMD-matched controls, highlighting its importance as a potential independent determinant of fracture incidence.

Abstract
The genetic components of microbial species that inhabit the body are known collectively as the microbiome. Modifications to the microbiome have been implicated in disease processes throughout the body and have recently been shown to influence bone. Prior work has associated changes in the microbial taxonomy (phyla, class, species, etc.) in the gut with bone phenotypes but has provided limited information regarding mechanisms. With the goal of achieving a more mechanistic understanding of the effects of the microbiome on bone, we perform a metagenomic analysis of the gut microbiome that provides information on the functional capacity of the microbes (all microbial genes present) rather than only characterizing the microbial taxa. Male C57Bl/6 mice were subjected to disruption of the gut microbiota (ΔMicrobiome) using oral antibiotics (from 4 to 16 weeks of age) or remained untreated (n = 6-7/group). Disruption of the gut microbiome in this manner has been shown to lead to reductions in tissue mechanical properties and whole bone strength in adulthood with only minor changes in bone geometry and density. ΔMicrobiome led to modifications in the abundance of microbial genes responsible for the synthesis of the bacterial cell wall and capsule; bacterially synthesized carbohydrates; and bacterially synthesized vitamins (B and K) (p < 0.01). Follow up analysis focused on vitamin K, a factor that has previously been associated with bone health. The vitamin K content of the cecum, liver and kidneys was primarily microbe-derived forms of vitamin K (menaquinones) and was decreased by 32-66% in ∆Microbiome mice compared to untreated animals (p < 0.01). Bone mineral crystallinity determined using Raman spectroscopy was decreased in ∆Microbiome mice (p = 0.01). This study illustrates the use of metagenomic analysis to link the microbiome to bone phenotypes and provides preliminary findings implicating microbially synthesized vitamin-K as a regulator of bone matrix quality.

Abstract
Background The aetiology of bone marrow oedema-like abnormalities (BMOA) seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is as yet not fully understood. The current study aimed to investigate the potential of projection radiography and Raman microspectroscopy to provide information regarding the underlying physiological changes associated with BMOA in equine bone samples. Methods MRI was used to assess 65 limbs from 43 horses. A subset of 13 limbs provided 25 samples, 8 with BMOA present and 17 as controls; these were examined with projection radiography to assess bone mineral density and Raman spectroscopy to assess bone composition. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS, the relationship between BMOA and age was tested using binary logistic regression, other outcome measures via unpaired t-tests. Results Overall BMOA was found to be associated with locally increased bone density (p = 0.011), suggesting increased bone formation; however, no measurable changes relating to bone remodelling were found, and there were no detectable changes in the chemical composition of bone. Conclusions BMOA is associated with locally increased bone density, without an associated change in the chemical composition of bone, suggesting this is not linked to BMOA. The presence of increased bone density associated with BMOA does appear to suggest that an increased amount of bone formation is occurring in these regions, but as Raman microspectroscopy data do not demonstrate any significant changes in bone chemical composition associated with BMOA, it would appear that the increased bone volume is due to a greater amount of bone being formed rather than an imbalance in relation to bone remodelling. The study provides a proof of principle for the use of Raman microspectroscopy and projection radiography in in vitro studies of BMOA.

Abstract
Mineralization is the most fundamental process in vertebrates. It is predominantly mediated by osteoblasts, which secrete mineral precursors, most likely through matrix vesicles (MVs). These vesicular structures are calcium and phosphate rich and contain organic material such as acidic proteins. However, it remains largely unknown how intracellular MVs are transported and secreted. Here, we use scanning electron-assisted dielectric microscopy and super-resolution microscopy for assessing live osteoblasts in mineralizing conditions at a nanolevel resolution. We found that the calcium-containing vesicles were multivesicular bodies containing MVs. They were transported via lysosome and secreted by exocytosis. Thus, we present proof that the lysosome transports amorphous calcium phosphate within mineralizing osteoblasts.

WATER RESEARCH 2018; 132:200-210. [PMID: 29331908 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2018.01.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2017] [Revised: 11/21/2017] [Accepted: 01/02/2018] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
This research was based on the investigation of a major principle, regarding the effects of NaCl and KH2PO4 concentrations on struvite recovery, with electricity production using magnesium-air fuel cell electrocoagulation, in accordance with the concentration of phosphorous and chloride. The weight ratio of N:P in the synthetic wastewater was in the range of 1.2-21. The concentration of NH4Cl was fixed at 0.277 M (approximately 3888 ppm as NH3-N and 5000 ppm as NH4), while PO4-P was in the range of 0.006-0.1 M. In addition, the concentrations of NaCl as electrolyte were 0, 0.01, and 0.1 M. Phosphate removal increased linearly with the Mg:P ratio, up to approximately 1.1 mol mol-1, irrespective of the initial concentrations of phosphate and NaCl. The one-to-one reaction as mole ratio between phosphate and the dissolved Mg ions resulted in phosphate removal, with the production of a one-to-one magnesium/phosphate mineral, such as struvite. The average removal rate of phosphorous in experiments without a dose of NaCl was 4.19 mg P cm-2 h-1, which was lower than the relative values of 5.35 and 4.77 mg P cm-2 h-1, in experiments with 0.01 and 0.1 M NaCl. The dissolution rate of Mg with electro-oxidation determined the rate of phosphorous removal with struvite recovery. The average removal rates of phosphorous with dose concentrations of 0.006, 0.01 and 0.02 M KH2PO4 were 4.02, 5.54, 6.9 mg P cm-2 h-1, respectively, which increased with the increase in KH2PO4 dose. However, in experiments with a dose of 0.05 and 0.1 M KH2PO4, the average removal rates of phosphorous decreased to 4.84 and 2.51, respectively. The maximum power densities in the electrolyte mixture of 0.05 M KH2PO4/0.277 M NH4Cl, 0.01 M NaCl/0.05 M KH2PO4/0.277 M NH4Cl, and 0.1 NaCl/0.05 KH2PO4/0.277 M NH4Cl were 25.1, 26.4, and 33.2 W/m2, respectively. The increase in the NaCl dose concentration resulted in an increase in the maximum power density and current density. A dose above 0.05 M KH2PO4 resulted in the decrease of the maximum power densities. However, when the dose was below 0.05 M KH2PO4, the maximum power density increased with the increase in KH2PO4 dose.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate, in the form of amorphous hydroxyapatite, precipitates out of neutral water solutions containing calcium and phosphate ions in the form of small agglomerates of 18 μm average size. When Hydron Blue dye (HB) is added, the insoluble particles gradually agglomerate further to 50 μm sizes. However, the removal capacity of hydroxyapatite for the dye is increased when the calcium phosphate nucleates and forms in the presence of dye. When coprecipitates form, the particules average 20 μm size and contain up to 60% organic matter. Nascent calcium phosphate particles have strong capacity for Hydron Blue dye removal. Thus smaller calcium phosphate particles increase the amount of dye molecules in water pollution control.

Abstract
Sinus lift elevation restores bone mass at the maxilla in edentulate patients before the placement of dental implants. It consists of opening the lateral side of the sinus and grafting beta-tricalcium phosphate granules (β-TCP) under the olfactory membrane. Bone biopsies were obtained in five patients after 60 weeks. They were embedded undecalcified in poly(methyl methacrylate) (pMMA); blocks were analyzed by nanocomputed tomography (nanoCT); specific areas were studied by Raman microspectroscopy. Remnants of β-TCP were osseointegrated and covered with mineralized bone; osteoid tissue was also filling the inner porosity. Macrophages having engulfed numerous β-TCP grains were observed in marrow spaces. β-TCP was identified by nanoCT as osseointegrated particles and as granules in the cytoplasm of macrophages. Raman microspectroscopy permitted to compare the spectra of β-TCP and bone in different areas. The ratio of the ~820 cm-1 band of pMMA (-CH2 groups) on the ν1 phosphate band at 960 cm-1 reflected tissue hydration because water was substituted by MMA during histological processing. In bone, the ratio of the ~960 cm-1 phosphate to the amide 1 band and the ratio ν2 phosphate band by the 1240-1250 amide III band reflect the mineralization degree. Specific bands of β-TCP were found in osseointegrated β-TCP granules and in the grains phagocytized by the macrophages. The hydration degree was maximal for β-TCP phagocytized by macrophages. Raman microspectroscopy associated with nanoCT is a powerful tool in the analysis of the biomaterial degradation and osseointegration.

Abstract
Although musculoskeletal diseases such as osteoporosis are diagnosed and treatment outcome is evaluated based mainly on routine clinical outcomes of bone mineral density (BMD) by DXA and biochemical markers, it is recognized that these two indicators, as valuable as they have proven to be in the everyday clinical practice, do not fully account for manifested bone strength. Thus, the term bone quality was introduced, to complement considerations based on bone turnover rates and BMD. Bone quality is an "umbrella" term that incorporates the structural and material/compositional characteristics of bone tissue. Vibrational spectroscopic techniques such as Fourier transform infrared microspectroscopy (FTIRM) and imaging (FTIRI), and Raman spectroscopy, are suitable analytical tools for the determination of bone quality as they provide simultaneous, quantitative, and qualitative information on all main bone tissue components (mineral, organic matrix, tissue water), in a spatially resolved manner. Moreover, the results of such analyses may be readily combined with the outcomes of other techniques such as histology/histomorphometry, small angle X-ray scattering, quantitative backscattered electron imaging, and nanoindentation.

Abstract
It is counterintuitive that invertebrate shells can induce bone formation, yet nacre, or mother of pearl, from marine shells is both osteoinductive and osteointegrative. Nacre is composed of aragonite (calcium carbonate) and induces production of vertebrate bone (calcium phosphate). Exploited by the Mayans for dental implants, this remarkable phenomenon has been confirmed in vitro and in vivo, yet the characteristic of nacre that induces bone formation remains unknown. By isolating nacre topography from its inherent chemistry in the production of polycaprolactone (PCL) nacre replica, we show that, for mesenchymal stem cells, nacre topography is osteoinductive. Gene expression of specific bone marker proteins, osteopontin, osteocalcin, osteonectin, and osterix, is increased 10-, 2-, 1.7-, and 1.8-fold, respectively, when compared to planar PCL. Furthermore, we demonstrate that bone tissue that forms in response to the physical topographical features of nacre has a higher crystallinity than bone formed in response to chemical cues with a full width half-maximum for PO43- Raman shift of 7.6 ± 0.7 for mineral produced in response to nacre replica compared to a much broader 34.6 ± 10.1 in response to standard osteoinductive medium. These differences in mineral product are underpinned by differences in cellular metabolism. This observation can be exploited in the design of bone therapies; a matter that is most pressing in light of a rapidly aging human population.

Abstract
An important component of phosphorite (phosphate rock) is carbonate apatite, as it is required for phosphorous fertilizer production due to its increased phosphate solubility caused by carbonate substitution in the apatite mineral lattice. High phosphate concentrations in municipal wastewater treatment plants are commonly reduced by precipitating iron phosphate by addition of iron chloride. We investigated the possibility of precipitating carbonate apatite from a potential range of phosphate concentrations that could be available from municipal wastewater treatment plants with anaerobic digestion reactors (5 mM–30 mM). Synthetic phosphate solutions at neutral pH were mixed in batch experiments with a calcium carbonate solution produced by dissolving calcite in contact with carbon dioxide gas, with and without carbonate apatite seed. Batch experiments were used to identify the carbonate apatite supersaturation ranges for homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation, and the precipitates analyzed with Raman spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, inorganic carbon coulometry, and scanning electron microscopy. Some precipitates contained carbonate weight fractions within the range reported for geological phosphate rock (1.4–6.3 wt %). The precipitates were spherical, poorly crystalline carbonate apatite, suggesting an amorphous precursor transformed to a poorly crystalline carbonate apatite without changing morphology.

Abstract
The physical properties of bone tissue are determined by the organic and mineral matrix, and are one aspect of bone quality. As such, the properties of mineral and matrix are a major contributor to bone strength, independent of bone mass. Cortical bone quality may differ regionally on the three skeletal envelopes that compose it. Each of these envelopes may be affected differently by ovarian hormone depletion. Identifying how these regions vary in their tissue adaptive response to ovarian hormones can inform our understanding of how tissue quality contributes to overall bone strength in postmenopausal women. We analyzed humeri from monkeys that were either SHAM-operated or ovariectomized. Raman microspectroscopic analysis was performed as a function of tissue age based on the presence of multiple fluorescent double labels, to determine whether bone compositional properties (mineral/matrix ratio, tissue water, glycosaminoglycan, lipid, and pyridinoline contents, and mineral maturity/crystallinity) are similar between periosteal, osteonal, and endosteal surfaces, as well as to determine the effects of ovarian hormone depletion on them. The results indicate that mineral and organic matrix characteristics, and kinetics of mineral and organic matrix modifications as a function of tissue age are different at periosteal vs. osteonal and endosteal surfaces. Ovarian hormone depletion affects the three cortical surfaces (periosteal, osteonal, endosteal) differently. While ovarian hormone depletion does not significantly affect the quality of either the osteoid or the most recently mineralized tissue, it significantly affects the rate of subsequent mineral accumulation, as well as the kinetics of organic matrix modifications, culminating in significant differences within interstitial bone. These results highlight the complexity of the cortical bone compartments, add to existing knowledge on the effects of ovarian hormone depletion on local cortical bone properties, and may contribute to a better understanding of the location specific action of drugs used in the management of postmenopausal osteoporosis.

Abstract
Prospective, controlled clinical trials in postmenopausal osteoporosis typically compare effects of an active drug with placebo in addition to vitamin D and calcium supplementation in both treatment arms. While clinical benefits are documented, the effect of this supplementation in the placebo arm and in clinical practice on bone material composition properties is unknown. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate these bone quality indices (specifically mineral/matrix, nanoporosity, glycosaminoglycan content, mineral maturity/crystallinity, and pyridinoline content) in patients that either received long-term vitamin D (400-1200IU) and calcium (1.0-1.5g) supplementation, or did not. We have analyzed by Raman microspectroscopy the bone forming trabecular surfaces of iliac crest in pre-treatment samples of a teriparatide study and the endpoint biopsies of the control arm obtained from the HORIZON trial. In general, the mineral/matrix ratio and the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content was higher while nanoporosity, (a surrogate for tissue water content), the mineral maturity/crystallinity (MMC) and the pyridinoline (Pyd) content was lower in patients without long-term supplementation. Moreover, all indices were significantly dependent on tissue age. In conclusion, vitamin D and calcium supplementation is associated with altered mineral and organic matrix properties.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with low areal bone mineral density (aBMD) by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and altered microstructure by bone histomorphometry and micro-computed tomography. Nevertheless, not all COPD patients sustain fragility fractures. In the present study, we used Raman microspectroscopic analysis to determine bone compositional properties at actively forming trabecular surfaces (based on double fluorescent labels) in iliac crest biopsies from 19 postmenopausal COPD patients (aged 62.1 ± 7.3 years). Additionally, we analyzed trabecular geometrical centers, representing tissue much older than the forming surfaces. Eight of the patients had sustained fragility fractures, and 13 had received treatment with inhaled glucocorticoids. None of the patients had taken oral glucocorticoids. The monitored parameters were mineral/matrix ratio (MM), nanoporosity, and relative glycosaminoglycan (GAG), lipid, and pyridinoline contents (PYD). There were no significant differences between the glucocorticoid-treated patients and those who did not receive any. On the other hand, COPD patients sustaining fragility fractures had significantly lower nanoporosity and higher MM and PYD values compared with COPD patients without fragility fractures. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to discriminate between fracture and non-fracture COPD patients based on differences in the material properties of bone matrix. Given that these bone material compositional differences are evident close to the cement line (a major bone interface), they may contribute to the inferior bone toughness and coupled with the lower lumbar spine bone mineral density values result in the fragility fractures prevalent in these patients. © 2016 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research.

Abstract
The resorption of brushite-based bone cements has been shown to be highly unpredictable, with strong dependence on a number of conditions. One of the major factors is phase transformation, with change to more stable phases such as hydroxyapatite affecting the rate of resorption. Despite its importance, the analysis of phase transformation has been largely undertaken using methods that only detect crystalline composition and give no information on the spatial distribution of the phases. In this study confocal Raman microscopy was used to map cross-sections of brushite cylinders aged in Phosphate Buffered Saline, Foetal Bovine Serum, Dulbecco's - Minimum Essential Medium (with and without serum). Image maps showed the importance of ageing medium on the phase composition throughout the ceramic structure. When aged without serum, there was dissolution of the brushite phase concomitant to the deposition of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) around the periphery of the sample. The deposition of OCP was detectable within five days and reduced the rate of brushite dissolution from the material. The use of serum, even at a concentration of 10vol% prevented phase transformation. This paper demonstrates the value of confocal Raman microscopy in monitoring phase change in biocements; it also demonstrates the problems with assessing material degradation in non-serum containing media.

Raman spectroscopic investigation on the molecular structure of apatite and collagen in osteoporotic cortical bone. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2016; 65:264-273. [PMID: 27608424 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2016.08.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2016] [Revised: 07/22/2016] [Accepted: 08/19/2016] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
This study employed highly spectrally resolved Raman spectroscopy to examine the molecular composition of cortical bone tissue obtained from murine females in their healthy and ovariectomy- (OVX-) induced osteoporotic states. The aim of the study was to identify structural differences at the molecular scale both in apatite mineral and collagen fibrils between the two groups of samples. Raman spectroscopy was used to determine the chemical composition of cortical bone in regions including characteristic bands of both bone mineral and bone matrix. The results demonstrated that the mineral apatite of bone did not undergo significant amorphization in its diseased state, with the Raman microprobe also failing in recognizing a direct role of carbonate content in the embrittlement of OVX-diseased bone. On the other hand, complex off-stoichiometry variations could be detected in the columnar Ca-structure of the bony hydroxyapatite according to morphological variations of the Raman band belonging to the symmetric phosphate stretching (A1) band at ~959cm-1. A fundamental role was also recognized for collagen quality on the process of bone embrittlement. The so-called matrix maturity ratio, as systematically measured on Raman spectra in the Amide I region, increased with statistical significance in OVX-treated samples as compared to control samples. An 8% increase could be associated to a 115% increase in elastic stress intensification in the mineral phase of OVX-diseased tissue as compared to the control one, thus proving a degradation in the (elastic) energy-dissipative capacity of a diseased bone matrix.
