Abstract
OBJECTIVE Alveolar bone defects can be highly variable in their morphology and, as the defect size increases, they become more challenging to treat with currently available therapeutics and biomaterials. This investigation sought to devise a protocol for fabricating customized clinical scale and patient-specific, bioceramic scaffolds for reconstruction of large alveolar bone defects. METHODS Two types of calcium phosphate (CaP)-based bioceramic scaffolds (alginate/β-TCP and hydroxyapatite/α-TCP, hereafter referred to as hybrid CaP and Osteoink™, respectively) were designed, 3D printed, and their biocompatibility with alveolar bone marrow stem cells and mechanical properties were determined. Following scaffold optimization, a workflow was developed to use cone beam computed tomographic (CBCT) imaging to design and 3D print, defect-specific bioceramic scaffolds for clinical-scale bone defects. RESULTS Osteoink™ scaffolds had the highest compressive strength when compared to hybrid CaP with different infill orientation. In cell culture medium, hybrid CaP degradation resulted in decreased pH (6.3) and toxicity to stem cells; however, OsteoInk™ scaffolds maintained a stable pH (7.2) in culture and passed the ISO standard for cytotoxicity. Finally, a clinically feasible laboratory workflow was developed and evaluated using CBCT imaging to engineer customized and defect-specific CaP scaffolds using OsteoInk™. It was determined that printed scaffolds had a high degree of accuracy to fit the respective clinical defects for which they were designed (0.27 mm morphological deviation of printed scaffolds from digital design). SIGNIFICANCE From patient to patient, large alveolar bone defects are difficult to treat due to high variability in their complex morphologies and architecture. Our findings shows that Osteoink™ is a biocompatible material for 3D printing of clinically acceptable, patient-specific scaffolds with precision-fit for use in alveolar bone reconstructive procedures. Collectively, emerging digital technologies including CBCT imaging, 3D surgical planning, and (bio)printing can be integrated to address this unmet clinical challenge.

Evaluation and comparison of synthesised hydroxyapatite in bone regeneration: As an in vivo study. J Taibah Univ Med Sci 2021; 16:878-886. [PMID: 34899133 PMCID: PMC8626821 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtumed.2021.06.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2021] [Revised: 05/28/2021] [Accepted: 06/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives Many patients suffer from non-repaired bone defects and subsequent aesthetic and psychological problems following bone fractures from accidents. The main goal of the study was to compare and evaluate synthetic hydroxyapatite with xenograft and commercial hydroxyapatite for bone repair and reconstruction. Methods In this study, synthetic hydroxyapatite was fabricated and verified. Cytotoxicity tests (i.e., induction coupled plasma [ICP], density and porosity analysis, scanning electron microscope [SEM] analysis, and thiazolyl blue tetrazolium blue [MTT] assay) were performed. Synthetic, xenograft, and commercial hydroxyapatite were tested in the animal study. Finally, bone regeneration was assessed using haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. Results The Ca/P ratio was measured for xenograft and commercial samples, and values were lower than those for the synthesised hydroxyapatite. The amount of surface porosity in the synthesised sample was greater than in the commercial and xenograft samples. Additionally, the density of the synthesised hydroxyapatite was lower than that of the xenograft and commercial samples. A small amount of ossification from natural bone margins was observed at 4 weeks in the xenograft and commercial hydroxyapatite group. In the synthetic group, immature bone formation was observed at 4 weeks. The rate of ossification and cell infiltration in the xenograft and commercial hydroxyapatite samples was higher at 8 weeks than at 4 weeks, and this rate was lower than in the synthesised hydroxyapatite group. The synthesised hydroxyapatite group exhibited greater ossification than the xenograft and commercial hydroxyapatite, and control groups at 12 weeks. Conclusion This study showed that synthesised hydroxyapatite had better effects on bone regeneration and could be used in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Transplantation of cell-based material is a promising approach for the treatment of critical bone defects. However, it is still limited by the lack of suitable scaffold material or abundant seeding cell sources. The present study aimed to establish a novel composite of an adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) sheet and a synthetic porous β-tricalcium phosphate/collagen-I fiber (β-TCP/COL-I) scaffold to enhance osteogenic activity. ADSCs were isolated from 3-week-old female Sprague Dawley rats and the ADSC sheets were prepared in an osteoinductive medium. The study groups included the ADSC sheets/scaffold, scattered ADSCs/scaffold, ADSC sheet alone and scaffold alone. Scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectrometry were used to observe cell-scaffold interactions and analyze the relative calcium content on the composites' surface. Alizarin red S staining was used to examine the calcium deposition. ELISA and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR were used to detect the expression levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN) and osteopontin (OPN). The results revealed that ADSCs were able to tightly adhere to the β-TCP/COL-I scaffold with no cytotoxicity. The calcifying nodules reaction was positive on ADSC sheets and gradually increased after osteogenic induction. In addition, the β-TCP/COL-I scaffold combined with ADSC sheets was able to significantly enhance the expression levels of ALP, OCN and OPN and increase the superficial relative calcium content compared to scattered ADSCs/scaffold or the ADSC sheet alone (P<0.05). The results indicated that ADSCs possess a strong osteogenic potential, particularly in the cell-sheet form and when compounded with the β-TCP/COL-I scaffold, compared to scattered ADSCs with a β-TCP/COL-I scaffold or an ADSC sheet alone. This novel composite may be a promising candidate for bone engineering.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aim to develop a 3D-bilayer collagen (COL) membrane reinforced with nano beta-tricalcium-phosphate (nβ-TCP) particles and to evaluate its bone regeneration in combination with leukocyte-platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) in vivo. BACKGROUND DATA L-PRF has exhibited promising results as a cell carrier in bone regeneration in a number of clinical studies, however there are some studies that did not confirm the positive results of L-PRF application. METHODS Mechanical & physiochemical characteristics of the COL/nβ-TCP membrane (1/2 & 1/4) were tested. Proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of seeded cells on bilayer collagen/nβ-TCP thick membrane was examined. Then, critical-sized calvarial defects in 8 white New Zealand rabbits were filled with either Col, Col/nβ-TCP, Col/nβ-TCP combined with L-PRF membrane, or left empty. New bone formation (NBF) was measured histomorphometrically 4 & 8 weeks postoperatively. RESULTS Compressive modulus increases while porosity decreases with higher β-TCP concentrations. Mechanical properties improve, with 89 % porosity (pore size ∼100 μm) in the bilayer-collagen/nβ-TCP membrane. The bilayer design also enhances the proliferation and ALP activity. In vivo study shows no significant difference among test groups at 4 weeks, but Col/nβ-TCP + L-PRF demonstrates more NBF compared to others (P < 0.05) after 8 weeks. CONCLUSION The bilayer-collagen/nβ-TCP thick membrane shows promising physiochemical in vitro results and significant NBF, as ¾ of the defect is filled with lamellar bone when combined with L-PRF membrane.

Abstract
Copper is an indispensable micronutrient in human health, which has important effects on the promotion of angiogenesis and thus contributes to bone formation and antimicrobial activity. We used ion exchange and pneumatic printing methods to prepare hydroxyapatite (HA) microspheres with different copper content. The microspheres were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Considering the resistance of hydroxyapatite to biodegradation in vivo, the degradation rate of microspheres in modified simulated body fluids was studied. In addition, cell proliferation and antibacterial experiments were carried out to study the biological properties of microspheres. HA-1.5MCu microbeads treated by 1.5 mol/L CuSO4 curing solution have good performance on degradation, antibacterial properties and cell survival rate on day 7. The results showed that HA-1.5MCu microbeads may be used as a good repair material for bone defects.

Abstract
We developed collagen (COL) and collagen/beta tricalcium phosphate (COL/β-TCP) scaffolds with a β-TCP/collagen weight ratio of 4 by freeze-drying. Mouse bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) were cultured on these scaffolds for 14 days. Samples were characterized by physicochemical analyses and their biological properties such as cell viability and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was, also, examined. Additionally, the vascularization potential of the prepared scaffolds was tested subcutaneously in Wistar rats. We observed a microporous structure with large porosity (∼95-98%) and appropriate pore size (120-200 µm). The COL/β-TCP scaffolds had a much higher compressive modulus (970 ± 1.20 KPa) than pure COL (0.8 ± 1.82 KPa). In vitro model of apatite formation was established by immersing the composite scaffold in simulated body fluid for 7 days. An ALP assay revealed that porous COL/β-TCP can effectively activate the differentiation of BMMSCs into osteoblasts. The composite scaffolds also promoted vascularization with good integration with the surrounding tissue. Thus, introduction of β-TCP powder into the porous collagen matrix effectively improved the mechanical and biological properties of the collagen scaffolds, making them potential bone substitutes for enhanced bone regeneration in orthopedic and dental applications. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Objectives: This study was primarily designed to determine the clinico-radiographic efficacy of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) and beta-tri-calcium phosphate with collagen (β-TCP-Cl) in preserving extraction sockets. Materials and Methods: For Group I (PRF), residual sockets (n = 15) were filled with autologous PRF obtained from patients' blood; and for Group II (β-TCP-Cl), residual sockets (n = 15) were filled with β-TCP-Cl. For the sockets randomly selected for Group II (β-TCP-Cl), the reshaped Resorbable Tissue Replacement cone was inserted into the socket. Results: Clinically, there was a significantly greater decrease in relative socket depth, but apposition in midcrestal height in Group II (β-TCP-Cl) as compared to Group I (PRF), whereas more decrease in buccolingual width of Group I (PRF) than Group II (β-TCP-Cl) after 6 months. Radiographically, the mean difference in socket height, residual ridge, and width (coronal, middle, and apical third of socket) after 6 months was higher in Group I (PRF) as compared to Group II (β-TCP-Cl). The mean density (in Hounsfield Units) at coronal, middle, and apical third of socket was higher in Group I (PRF) as compared to Group II (β-TCP-Cl). There were statistically significant apposition and resorption for Group I (PRF) whereas nonsignificant resorption and significant apposition for Group II (β-TCP-Cl) in buccal and lingual/palatal cortical plate, respectively, at 6 months on computerized tomography scan. Conclusion: The use of either autologous PRF or β-TCP-Cl was effective in socket preservation. Results obtained from PRF were almost similar to β-TCP-Cl; therefore being autologous, nonimmune, cost-effective, easily procurable regenerative biomaterial, PRF proves to be an insight into the future biofuel for regeneration.

Abstract
This review discusses and summarizes the recent developments and advances in the use of biodegradable materials for bone repair purposes. The choice between using degradable and non-degradable devices for orthopedic and maxillofacial applications must be carefully weighed. Traditional biodegradable devices for osteosynthesis have been successful in low or mild load bearing applications. However, continuing research and recent developments in the field of material science has resulted in development of biomaterials with improved strength and mechanical properties. For this purpose, biodegradable materials, including polymers, ceramics and magnesium alloys have attracted much attention for osteologic repair and applications. The next generation of biodegradable materials would benefit from recent knowledge gained regarding cell material interactions, with better control of interfacing between the material and the surrounding bone tissue. The next generations of biodegradable materials for bone repair and regeneration applications require better control of interfacing between the material and the surrounding bone tissue. Also, the mechanical properties and degradation/resorption profiles of these materials require further improvement to broaden their use and achieve better clinical results.

Abstract
The state-of-the-art on calcium orthophosphate (CaPO4)-containing biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials suitable for biomedical applications is presented. Since these types of biomaterials offer many significant and exciting possibilities for hard tissue regeneration, this subject belongs to a rapidly expanding area of biomedical research. Through the successful combinations of the desired properties of matrix materials with those of fillers (in such systems, CaPO4 might play either role), innovative bone graft biomaterials can be designed. Various types of CaPO4-based biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials those are either already in use or being investigated for biomedical applications are extensively discussed. Many different formulations in terms of the material constituents, fabrication technologies, structural and bioactive properties, as well as both in vitro and in vivo characteristics have been already proposed. Among the others, the nano-structurally controlled biocomposites, those containing nanodimensional compounds, biomimetically fabricated formulations with collagen, chitin and/or gelatin, as well as various functionally graded structures seem to be the most promising candidates for clinical applications. The specific advantages of using CaPO4-based biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials in the selected applications are highlighted. As the way from a laboratory to a hospital is a long one and the prospective biomedical candidates have to meet many different necessities, the critical issues and scientific challenges that require further research and development are also examined.

Abstract
Fish scales, which consist of type I collagen and hydroxyapatite (HA), were used to fabricate a bioabsorbable bone pin in this study. Fresh fish scales were decellularized and characterized to provide higher biocompatibility. The mechanical properties of fish scales were tested, and the microstructure of an acellular fish scale was examined. The growth curve of a myoblastic cell line (C2C12), which was cultured on the acellular fish scales, implied biocompatibility in vitro, and the morphology of the cells cultured on the scales was observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A bone pin made of decellularized fish scales was used for the internal fixation of femur fractures in New Zealand rabbits. Periodic X-ray evaluations were obtained, and histologic examinations were performed postoperatively. The present results show good cell growth on decellularized fish scales, implying great biocompatibility in vitro. Using SEM, the cell morphology revealed great adhesion on a native, layered collagen structure. The Young's modulus was 332 ± 50.4 MPa and the tensile strength was 34.4 ± 6.9 MPa for the decellularized fish scales. Animal studies revealed that a fish-scale-derived bone pin improved the healing of bone fractures and degraded with time. After an 8-week implantation, the bone pin integrated with the adjacent tissue, and new extracellular matrix was synthesized around the implant. Our results proved that fish-scale-derived bone pins are a promising implant material for bone healing and clinical applications.

Abstract
Objectives The major problem with repair of an articular cartilage injury
is the extensive difference in the structure and function of regenerated,
compared with normal cartilage. Our work investigates the feasibility
of repairing articular osteochondral defects in the canine knee
joint using a composite lamellar scaffold of nano-ß-tricalcium phosphate
(ß-TCP)/collagen (col) I and II with bone marrow stromal stem cells
(BMSCs) and assesses its biological compatibility. Methods The bone–cartilage scaffold was prepared as a laminated composite,
using hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nano-HAP)/collagen I/copolymer
of polylactic acid–hydroxyacetic acid as the bony scaffold, and
sodium hyaluronate/poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) as the cartilaginous
scaffold. Ten-to 12-month-old hybrid canines were randomly divided
into an experimental group and a control group. BMSCs were obtained
from the iliac crest of each animal, and only those of the third
generation were used in experiments. An articular osteochondral
defect was created in the right knee of dogs in both groups. Those
in the experimental group were treated by implanting the composites
consisting of the lamellar scaffold of ß-TCP/col I/col II/BMSCs.
Those in the control group were left untreated. Results After 12 weeks of implantation, defects in the experimental group
were filled with white semi-translucent tissue, protruding slightly
over the peripheral cartilage surface. After 24 weeks, the defect
space in the experimental group was filled with new cartilage tissues, finely
integrated into surrounding normal cartilage. The lamellar scaffold
of ß-TCP/col I/col II was gradually degraded and absorbed, while
new cartilage tissue formed. In the control group, the defects were
not repaired. Conclusion This method can be used as a suitable scaffold material for the
tissue-engineered repair of articular cartilage defects. Cite this article: Bone Joint Res 2015;4:56–64

Abstract
Polymer and ceramic composite scaffolds play a crucial role in bone tissue engineering. In an attempt to mimic the architecture of natural extracellular matrix (ECM), poly(l-lactic acid)/β-tricalcium phosphate (PLLA/β-TCP) nanocomposite scaffolds with a hierarchical pore structure were fabricated by combining thermal induced phase separation and salt leaching techniques. The nanocomposite scaffold consisted of a nanofibrous PLLA matrix with a highly interconnected, high porosity (>93%) hierarchical pore structure with pore diameters ranging from 500nm to 300μm and a homogeneously distributed β-TCP nanoparticle phase. The nanofibrous PLLA matrix had a fiber diameter of 70-300nm. The nanocomposite scaffolds possess three levels of hierarchical structure: (1) porosity; (2) nanofibrous PLLA struts comprising the pore walls; and (3) β-TCP nanoparticle phase. The β-TCP nanoparticle phase improved the mechanical properties and bioactivity of the PLLA matrix. The nanocomposite scaffolds supported MG-63 osteoblast proliferation, penetration, and ECM deposition, indicating the potential of PLLA/β-TCP nanocomposite scaffolds with hierarchical porosity for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Composite materials based on collagen matrix could have the different properties in the case of reinforcement with different bioceramics. Not just the chemical composition of bioceramics used as reinforcement component have an influence on the composite properties, but also the microstructural aspects of bioceramics such as morphology, grain size and shape, homogeneity and distribution. We present in this paper the effect of the bioceramics type (TCP, hydroxyapatite) and ratio on the composite material structure and the biodegradation properties of some collagen based composites obtaining using the freeze-drying process. Also, we measure the porosity before made the biodegradation test using collagenase as medium and immersion in simulated body fluid in order to see the bioactivity properties.

Abstract
Synthetic bone substitutes are attractive materials for repairing a variety of bone defects. They are readily available in unlimited quantities, have a defined composition without batch variability and bear no risk of disease transmission. When combined with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), bone healing can be further enhanced due to the osteogenic potential of these cells. However, human MSCs showed considerable donor variability in ectopic bone formation assays on synthetic bone substitutes, which may limit clinical success. This study addresses whether bone formation variability of MSCs is cell-intrinsic or biomaterial-dependent and may be improved using biological bone substitutes with and without collagen. Ectopic bone formation of MSCs from nine donors was tested in immune-deficient mice on biological bone substitutes of bovine and equine origin, containing collagen (bHA-C; eHA-C) or not (bHA; eHA). Synthetic β-TCP was used for comparison. Histology of 8-week explants demonstrated a significant influence of the bone graft substitute (BGS) on donor variability of ectopic bone formation with best results seen for eHA-C (15/17) and β-TCP (16/18). Bone was of human origin in all groups according to species-specific in situ hybridization, but MSCs from one donor formed no bone with any bone substitute. According to histomorphometry, most neo-bone was formed on eHA-C with significant differences to bHA, eHA and β-TCP (p<0.001). Collagen-free biological BGSs were inferior to biological BGSs with collagen (p<0.001), while species-origin was of little influence. In conclusion, BGS composition had a strong influence on ectopic bone formation ability of MSCs, and biological BGSs with a collagen component seem most promising to display the strong osteogenic potential of MSCs.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the healing of human extraction sockets filled with β-tricalcium phosphate and type I collagen (β-TCP/Clg) cones with or without a barrier membrane. Twenty patients were divided in two groups: (A) β-TCP/Clg non-membrane and (B) β-TCP/Clg + barrier membrane. Clinical examination and biopsies from the grafted sites were collected 9 months later. Bone samples were analyzed using histomorphometry and immunohistochemistry. The horizontal dimension of the alveolar ridge was significantly reduced 9 months after socket preservation in the non-membrane group. There was bone formation with no significant differences between the two groups in the areas occupied by new bone (A = 42.4%; B = 45.3%), marrow (A = 42.7%; B = 35.7%), or residual graft (A = 9.7%; B = 12.5%). Immunohistochemistry revealed osteonectin expression in both groups. Both groups demonstrated sufficient amounts of vital bone and socket morphology to support dental implant placement after the 9-month healing period. A future trial to evaluate the alveolar outcomes at an earlier 6-month time point rather than the 9 months used in this study would be of interest.

Abstract
Hydrogels are an important class of highly hydrated polymers that are widely investigated for potential use in soft tissue engineering. Generally, however, hydrogels lack the ability to mineralize, preventing the formation of chemical bonds with hard tissues such as bone. A recent trend in tissue engineering involves the development of hydrogels that possess the capacity to mineralize. The strategy that has attracted most interest has been the incorporation of inorganic phases such as calcium phosphate ceramics and bioglasses into hydrogel matrices. These inorganic particles act as nucleation sites that enable further mineralization, thus improving the mechanical properties of the composite material. A second route to create nucleation sites for calcification of hydrogels involves the use of features from the physiological mineralization process. Examples of these biomimetic mineralization strategies include (1) soaking of hydrogels in solutions that are saturated with respect to calcium phosphate, (2) incorporation of enzymes that catalyze deposition of bone mineral, and (3) incorporation of synthetic analogues to matrix vesicles that are the initial sites of biomineralization. Functionalization of the polymeric hydrogel backbone with negatively charged groups is a third mechanism to promote mineralization in otherwise inert hydrogels. This review summarizes the main strategies that have been developed in the past decade to calcify hydrogel matrices and render these hydrogels suitable for applications in bone regeneration.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate cement (CPC) can conform to complex bone cavities and set in-situ to form bioresorbable hydroxyapatite. The aim of this study was to develop a CPC-collagen composite with improved fracture resistance, and to investigate the effects of collagen on mechanical and cellular properties. A type-I bovine-collagen was incorporated into CPC. MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts were cultured. At CPC powder/liquid mass ratio of 3, the work-of-fracture (mean +/- sd; n = 6) was increased from (22 +/- 4) J/m(2) at 0% collagen, to (381 +/- 119) J/m(2) at 5% collagen (p < or = 0.05). At 2.5-5% of collagen, the flexural strength at powder/liquid ratios of 3 and 3.5 was 8-10 MPa. They matched the previously reported 2-11 MPa of sintered porous hydroxyapatite implants. SEM revealed that the collagen fibers were covered with nano-apatite crystals and bonded to the CPC matrix. Higher collagen content increased the osteoblast cell attachment (p < or = 0.05). The number of live cells per specimen area was (382 +/- 99) cells/mm(2) on CPC containing 5% collagen, higher than (173 +/- 42) cells/mm(2) at 0% collagen (p < or = 0.05). The cytoplasmic extensions of the cells anchored to the nano-apatite crystals of the CPC matrix. In summary, collagen was incorporated into in situ-setting, nano-apatitic CPC, achieving a 10-fold increase in work-of-fracture (toughness) and two-fold increase in osteoblast cell attachment. This moldable/injectable, mechanically strong, nano-apatite-collagen composite may enhance bone regeneration in moderate stress-bearing applications.

Abstract
Mineralized collagen-glycosminoglycan scaffolds have previously been fabricated by freeze-drying a slurry containing a co-precipitate of calcium phosphate, collagen and glycosaminoglycan. The mechanical properties of the scaffold are low (e.g. the dry Young's modulus for a 50 wt.% mineralized scaffold is roughly 780 kPa). Our previous attempt to increase the mechanical properties of the scaffold by increasing the mineralization (from 50 to 75 wt.%) was unsuccessful due to defects in the more mineralized scaffold. In this paper, we describe a new technique to improve the mechanical properties by increasing the relative density of the scaffolds. The volume fraction of solids in the slurry was increased by vacuum-filtration. The slurry was then freeze-dried in the conventional manner to produce scaffolds with relative densities between 0.045 and 0.187 and pore sizes of about 100-350 microm, values appropriate for bone growth. The uniaxial compressive stress-strain curves of the scaffolds indicated that the Young's modulus in the dry state increased from 780 to 6500 kPa and that the crushing strength increased from 39 to 275 kPa with increasing relative density. In the hydrated state, the Young's modulus increased from 6.44 to 34.8 kPa and the crushing strength increased from 0.55 to 2.12 kPa; the properties were further increased by cross-linking. The modulus and strength were well described by models for cellular solids.

Abstract
Electrospinning was employed to fabricate fibrous scaffolds of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) in the form of nonwoven mats. The surfaces of the fibers were then coated with gelatin through layer-by-layer self-assembly, followed by functionalization with a uniform coating of bonelike calcium phosphate by mineralization in the 10 times concentrated simulated body fluid for 2 h. Transmission electron microscopy, water contact angle, and scanning electron microscopy measurements confirmed the presence of gelatin and calcium phosphate coating layers, and X-ray diffraction results suggested that the deposited mineral phase was a mixture of dicalcium phosphate dehydrate (a precursor to apatite) and apatite. It was also demonstrated that the incorporation of gelatin promoted nucleation and growth of calcium phosphate. The porous scaffolds could mimic the structure, composition, and biological function of bone extracellular matrix. It was found that the preosteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells attached, spread, and proliferated well with a flat morphology on the mineralized scaffolds. The proliferation rate of the cells on the mineralized scaffolds was significantly higher (by 1.9-fold) than that on the pristine fibrous scaffolds after culture for 7 days. These results indicated that the hybrid system containing poly(epsilon-caprolactone), gelatin, and calcium phosphate could serve as a new class of biomimetic scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Brushite-based biomaterials are of special interest in bone regeneration due to their biocompatibility and biodegradability; on the other hand, collagen is a well-known osteoconductive biomaterial. In the present study a new brushite-collagen composite biomaterial is reported. This new biomaterial was prepared by combining citric acid/collagen type I solutions with a brushite cement powder. The obtained biomaterial was a cement paste, with improved handling properties. The effect of collagen on the setting reaction of brushite cement was studied, and was found to speed up the cement setting reaction. The cement paste set into a hard ceramic material within 18.5+/-2.1min and had compressive strength similar to that of spongeous bone (48.9+/-5.9MPa in dry conditions and 12.7+/-1.5MPa in humid conditions). The combination of collagen with citric acid revealed an interesting synergistic effect on the compressive strength of the composite material. Moreover, this new biomaterial had excellent cohesion properties (ninefold better than brushite cement), and high cellular adhesion capacity (threefold higher than brushite cement). The composite biomaterial described in this study combines good handling properties, compressive strength, cohesion and cell adhesion capacity, along with the osteoconductive and biodegradable properties inherent in brushite and in collagen-based biomaterials.

Abstract
Mineralized collagen-glycosaminoglycan scaffolds designed for bone regeneration have been synthesized via triple co-precipitation in the absence of a titrant phase. Here, we characterize the microstructural and mechanical properties of these newly developed scaffolds with 50 and 75 wt.% mineral content. The 50 wt.% scaffold had an equiaxed pore structure with isotropic mechanical properties and a Ca-P-rich mineral phase comprised of brushite; the 75 wt.% scaffold had a bilayer structure with a pore size varying in the through-thickness direction and a mineral phase comprised of 67% brushite and 33 wt.% monetite. The compressive stress-strain response of the scaffolds was characteristic of low-density open-cell foams with distinct linear elastic, collapse plateau and densification regimes. The elastic modulus and strength of individual struts within the scaffolds were measured using an atomic force microscopy cantilevered beam-bending technique and compared with the composite response under indentation and unconfined compression. Cellular solids models, using the measured strut properties, overestimated the overall mechanical properties for the scaffolds; the discrepancy arises from defects such as disconnected pore walls within the scaffold. As the scaffold stiffness and strength decreased with increasing overall mineral content and were less than that of natural, mineralized collagen scaffolds, these microstructural/mechanical relations will be used to further improve scaffold design for bone regeneration applications.

Abstract
AbstractThe purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of a collagen/β-tricalcium phosphate (COL/β-TCP) composite on osteoblast growth and proliferation. The COL/β-TCP composite was prepared by mixing COL type I with β-TCP, in 1:1 (w/w) ratio and conditioned as sponge by freeze-drying. The osteoblast culture was obtained from rat calvaria bones by enzymatic digestion and cells were seeded in the COL/β-TCP composite. The cell morphology and viability, alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin, as markers of osteoblast proliferation were evaluated at 3, 7 and 25 days of culture. Histological sections revealed that cell colonization progressively increased inside the COL/β-TCP scaffold, and osteoblasts had a random distribution throughout the scaffold. Cells cultured into the COL/β-TCP scaffold presented osteoblast phenotype, intense staining of alkaline phosphatase and increased production of osteocalcin. Transmission electron micrographs revealed intimate contacts between osteoblasts and the scaffold. MTT test indicated that the viability of the cells cultivated in the presence of COL/β-TCP scaffold was similar to that of the control. All these results show that our COL/β-TCP composite act as a good substrate for rat osteoblast proliferation and migration and could be a promising substitute for bone repair.

Abstract
We have engineered a scaffold constructed of synthetic octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and porcine collagen sponge (OCP/Col), and reported that OCP/Col drastically enhanced bone regeneration. In this study, we investigated whether OCP/Col would enhance bone regeneration more than beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP) collagen composite (beta-TCP/Col) or hydroxyapatite (HA) collagen composite (HA/Col). Discs of OCP/Col, beta-TCP/Col, or HA/Col were implanted into critical-sized defects in rat crania and fixed at 4 or 12 weeks after implantation. The newly formed bone and the remaining granules of implants in the defect were determined by histomorphometrical analysis, and radiographic and histological examinations were performed. Statistical analysis showed that the newly formed bone by the implantation of OCP/Col was significantly more than that of beta-TCP/Col or HA/Col. In contrast, the remaining granules in OCP/Col were significantly lower than those in beta-TCP/Col or HA/Col. Bone regeneration by OCP/Col was based on secured calcified collagen and bone nucleation by OCP, whereas bone regeneration by beta-TCP/Col or HA/Col was initiated by poorly calcified collagen and osteoconductivity by beta-TCP or HA. This study showed that the implantation of OCP/Col in a rat cranial defect enhanced more bone regeneration than beta-TCP/Col and HA/Col.

Abstract
The aim of this research is to study the effect of the controlled releasing character of the salmon calcitonin (S-CT) loaded injectable calcium phosphate cement (CPC) modified by adding organic phase, chitosan oligosaccharide (CO) and collagen polypeptide (CP). The uniform design was used to determine the basic formulation with suitable injectable time for clinical application, and then the changes of the physical characters, the controlled releasing character of the modified CPC along with the ratio of the organic phase were also evaluated in vitro. The surface morphous of the modified CPC been implanted in the abdominal cavity or soaked into the serum of rat was also observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). The result shows that a suitable formulation of modified CPC could be got, and the injectable time is 12 min, the compressive strength is 12 MPa, and the final setting time is 40 min. Comparing with the CPC without organic phase, the releasing rate of S-CT would increase along with the increase of the organic phase after 7th day. Therefore, a novel S-CT loaded bioactive injectable CPC for treating osteoporosis induced bone defect was obtained, and the release of the containing S-CT was controlled easily through adjusting the ratio of CO and CP.
