Unveiling the role of hydroxyapatite and hydroxyapatite/silver composite in osteoblast-like cell mineralization: An exploration through their viscoelastic properties. Bone 2024; 184:117090. [PMID: 38579924 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2024.117090] [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: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 03/17/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
Mechanical properties are becoming fundamental for advancing the comprehension of cellular processes. This study addresses the relationship between viscoelastic properties and the cellular mineralization process. Osteoblast-like cells treated with an osteogenic medium were employed for this purpose. Additionally, the study explores the impact of hydroxyapatite (HA) and hydroxyapatite/silver (HA/Ag) composite on this process. AFM relaxation experiments were conducted to extract viscoelastic parameters using the Fractional Zener (FZ) and Fractional Kelvin (FK) models. Our findings revealed that the main phases of mineralization are associated with alterations in the viscoelastic properties of osteoblast-like cells. Furthermore, HA and HA/Ag treatments significantly influenced changes in the viscoelastic properties of these cells. In particular, the HA/Ag treatment demonstrated a marked enhancement in cell fluidity, suggesting a possible role of silver in accelerating the mineralization process. Moreover, the study underscores the independence observed between fluidity and stiffness, indicating that modifications in one parameter may not necessarily correspond to changes in the other. These findings shed light on the factors involved in the cellular mineralization process and emphasize the importance of using viscoelastic properties to discern the impact of treatments on cells.

Platelet-derived growth factor PDGF-AA upregulates connexin 43 expression and promotes gap junction formations in osteoblast cells through p-Akt signaling. Biochem Biophys Rep 2023; 34:101462. [PMID: 37025987 PMCID: PMC10070375 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrep.2023.101462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Revised: 03/14/2023] [Accepted: 03/23/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Gap junctions, which are mainly composed of connexin units, play an indispensable role in cell morphogenesis, proliferation, migration, adhesion and differentiation of osteoblast lineage cells, and thus mediate bone development, homeostasis and disease occurrence. Platelet-derived growth factor-AA (PDGF-AA) is proved to have a great influence on osteoblast cell lines and is widely applied in the field of bone defect and wound healing. However, the role of PDGF-AA on gap junction formation in the osteoblast lineage remains elusive. In the current study, we aimed to investigate the impact of PDGF-AA on gap junction formation and cell-to-cell communication in the osteoblast lineage and explore its underlying biomechanism. We first found that PDGF-AA promoted cell proliferation and thus increased gap junction formations in living primary osteoblasts and MC3T3-E1 cells through scrape loading and dye transfer (SL/DT) assay. We then confirmed that PDGF-AA enhanced gap junction formations through up-regulation of connexin 43 (Cx43). We next detected the activation of p-Akt signaling in primary osteoblasts and MC3T3-E1 cells that were induced by PDGF-AA. Through inhibitory experiments, we further confirmed that PDGF-AA-mediated gap junction formation occurred via the activation of PI3K/Akt signaling. Taking together, our results provided evidences that PDGF-AA promoted gap junction formation in the osteoblast lineage through p-Akt signaling, which helped to understand the role of PDGF-AA in bone regeneration and diseases.

[PMID: 36826882 PMCID: PMC9961440 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14020083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2022] [Revised: 01/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Different compositions of biodegradable materials are being investigated to successfully replace non-resorbable ones in bone tissue regeneration in dental surgery. The systematic review tried to address the question, "Can biodegradable polymers act as a replacement for conventional materials in dental surgery procedures?" (2) Methods: An electronic search of the PubMed and Scopus databases was conducted in October 2022. The following keywords were used: (lactide polymers) and (hydroxyapatite or fluorapatite) and (dentistry) and (regeneration). Initially, 59 studies were found. Forty-one studies met the inclusion criteria and were included in the review. (3) Results: These usually improved the properties and induced osteogenesis, tissue mineralisation and bone regeneration by inducing osteoblast proliferation. Five studies showed higher induction of osteogenesis in the case of biomaterials, UV-HAp/PLLA, ALBO-OS, bioresorbable raw particulate hydroxyapatite/poly-L-lactide and PLGA/Hap, compared to conventional materials such as titanium. Four studies confirmed improvement in tissue mineralisation with the usage of biomaterials: hydroxyapatite/polylactic acid (HA/PLA) loaded with dog's dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), Coll/HAp/PLCL, PDLLA/VACNT-O:nHAp, incorporation of hydroxyapatite and simvastatin. Three studies showed an acceleration in proliferation of osteoblasts for the use of biomaterials with additional factors such as collagen and UV light. (4) Conclusions: Lactide polymers present higher osteointegration and cell proliferation rate than the materials compared. They are superior to non-biodegradable materials in terms of the biocompability, bone remodelling and healing time tests. Moreover, because there is no need of reoperation, as the material automatically degrades, the chance of scars and skin sclerosis is lower. However, more studies involving greater numbers of biomaterial types and mixes need to be performed in order to find a perfect biodegradable material.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic infectious oral disease with a high prevalence rate in the world, and is a major cause of tooth loss. Nowadays, people have realized that the local microenvironment that includes proteins, cytokines, and extracellular matrix has a key influence on the functions of host immune cells and periodontal ligament stem cells during a chronic infectious disease such as periodontitis. The above pathological process of periodontitis will lead to a defect of periodontal tissues. Through the application of biomaterials, biological agents, and stem cells therapy, guided tissue regeneration (GTR) makes it possible to reconstruct healthy periodontal ligament tissue after local inflammation control. To date, substantial advances have been made in periodontal guided tissue regeneration. However, the process of periodontal remodeling experiences complex microenvironment changes, and currently periodontium regeneration still remains to be a challenging feat. In this review, we summarized the main challenges in each stage of periodontal regeneration, and try to put forward appropriate biomaterial treatment mechanisms or potential tissue engineering strategies that provide a theoretical basis for periodontal tissue engineering regeneration research.

Abstract
Achieving rapid osteogenesis and angiogenesis was the key factor for bone regeneration. In the present study, the strontium-substituted calcium silicate (SrCS)/silk fibroin (SF) composite materials have been constructed by combining the different functional component ratios of SrCS (12.5 wt%, 25 wt%) and SF. Then, the effects of SrCS/SF materials on proliferation, osteogenic differentiation, and angiogenic factor secretion of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (rBMSCs) were first evaluated in vitro. Moreover, the in vivo effect of osteogenesis was evaluated in a critical-sized rat calvarial defect model. In vitro studies showed that SrCS/SF significantly enhanced the cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and the expression of osteogenic and angiogenic factors of rBMSCs as compared with the SF and CS/SF, and the optimum proportion ratio was 25 wt%. Besides, the results also showed that CS/SF achieved enhanced effects on rBMSCs as compared with SF. The in vivo results showed that 25 wt% SrCS/SF could obviously promote new bone formation more than SF and CS/SF. The present study revealed that SrCS could significantly promote the osteogenic and angiogenic activities of SF, and SrCS/SF might be a good scaffold material for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Bone implant materials cause the most common complication of bone infections in orthopedic surgery, resulting in implant failure. Antibiotic treatment of bone infections leads to problems such as bacterial resistance and reduced osteogenic capacity. In this study, dopamine (DA) was self-polymerized on the surface of Polylactic acid (PLLA)/Hydroxyapatite (HA) nanowire composite fibers to form an adhesive polydopamine (PDA) membrane, and a stable silver-nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) coating layer was constructed on it by electrochemically driven Ag+ coordination and chelation through Polypyrrole (PPy) mediation, achieving steady and slow release of Ag-NPs. With optimized DA soaking time of 24 h and soaking concentration of 0.5 g·L-1, nanoparticles were uniformly distributed on PLLA/HA/PDA/PPy/Ag composite fibers and the hydrophilicity of the composite fibers was well-behaved. Besides, the composite fibers possessed good physiological stability and 100% antibacterial rate against Escherichia coli (E. coli) as well as Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). In addition, the composite fibers had promoted apatite nucleation and growth on surface and good cytocompatibility with osteoblasts, indicating ability of inducing osteogenic differentiation. In summary, a multi-functional PLLA/HA/PDA/PPy/Ag composite fiber with long-term antibacterial property, bioactivity and osteoinductivity was successfully constructed by electrospinning and electrochemical deposition.
