Abstract
Since ancient times, reduction and internal fixation has been applied to restore skeletal integrity. Despite advances in the understanding of fracture healing, the risk of complication such as implant loosening or implant-related infection still depicts a challenging complication. Nowadays, a great deal of research is devoted to unreveal the impact of implant surface modifications on osteogenic processes to enhance bone consolidation and osseointegration. This narrative review is aimed to (1) show the evolution and already achieved milestones of implant optimization, and (2) to outline the key factors that contribute to an enhanced osseointegration. Different physical and chemical roughening techniques are currently applied in various studies. Surface patterning on the nanoscale has been found to be an essential factor for the biological response, achievable by e.g. anodisation or laser texturing. Besides surface roughening, also different coating methods are vastly investigated. Next to metal or inorganic compounds as coating material, a variety of biomolecules is currently studied for their osteosupportive capacities. Osseointegration can be improved by surface modification on the micro and nanoscale. Bioactive agents can further improve the osseointegration potential. Used agents at the moment are e.g. inorganic compounds, growth factors (BMPs and non-BMPs) and antiresorptive drugs. The advancement in research on new implant generations therefore aims at actively supporting osseointegration processing.

Remote Eradication of Bacteria on Orthopedic Implants via Delayed Delivery of Polycaprolactone Stabilized Polyvinylpyrrolidone Iodine. J Funct Biomater 2022; 13:jfb13040195.

Abstract
Bacteria-associated late infection of the orthopedic devices would further lead to the failure of the implantation. However, present ordinary antimicrobial strategies usually deal with early infection but fail to combat the late infection of the implants due to the burst release of the antibiotics. Thus, to fabricate long-term antimicrobial (early antibacterial, late antibacterial) orthopedic implants is essential to address this issue. Herein, we developed a sophisticated MAO-I2-PCLx coating system incorporating an underlying iodine layer and an upper layer of polycaprolactone (PCL)-controlled coating, which could effectively eradicate the late bacterial infection throughout the implantation. Firstly, micro-arc oxidation was used to form a microarray tubular structure on the surface of the implants, laying the foundation for iodine loading and PCL bonding. Secondly, electrophoresis was applied to load iodine in the tubular structure as an efficient bactericidal agent. Finally, the surface-bonded PCL coating acts as a controller to regulate the release of iodine. The hybrid coatings displayed great stability and control release capacity. Excellent antibacterial ability was validated at 30 days post-implantation via in vitro experiments and in vivo rat osteomyelitis model. Expectedly, it can become a promising bench-to-bedside strategy for current infection challenges in the orthopedic field.

Abstract
The concept of Instrumented Smart Implant emerged as a leading research topic that aims to revolutionize the field of orthopaedic implantology. These implants have been designed incorporating biophysical therapeutic actuation, bone-implant interface sensing, implant-clinician communication and self-powering ability. The ultimate goal is to implement revist interface, controlled by clinicians/surgeons without troubling the quotidian activities of patients. Developing such high-performance technologies is of utmost importance, as bone replacements are among the most performed surgeries worldwide and implant failure rates can still exceed 10%. In this review paper, an overview to the major breakthroughs carried out in the scope of multifunctional smart bone implants is provided. One can conclude that many challenges must be overcome to successfully develop them as revision-free implants, but their many strengths highlight a huge potential to effectively establish a new generation of high-sophisticated biodevices.

Antibacterial properties of laser-encapsulated titanium oxide nanotubes decorated with nanosilver and covered with chitosan/Eudragit polymers. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 138:212950.

Abstract
To provide antibacterial properties, the titanium samples were subjected to electrochemical oxidation in the fluoride-containing diethylene glycol-based electrolyte to create a titanium oxide nanotubular surface. Afterward, the surface was covered by sputtering with silver 5 nm film, and the tops of the nanotubes were capped using laser treatment, resulting in an appearance of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) of around 30 nm in diameter on such a modified surface. To ensure a controlled release of the bactericidal substance, the samples were additionally coated with a pH-sensitive chitosan/Eudragit 100 coating, also exhibiting bactericidal properties. The modified titanium samples were characterized using SEM, EDS, AFM, Raman, and XPS techniques. The wettability, corrosion properties, adhesion of the coating to the substrate, the release of AgNPs into solutions simulating body fluids at different pH, and antibacterial properties were further investigated. The obtained composite coatings were hydrophilic, adjacent to the surface, and corrosion-resistant. An increase in the amount of silver released as ions or metallic particles into a simulated body fluid solution at acidic pH was observed for modified samples with the biopolymer coating after three days of exposure avoiding burst effect. The proposed modification was effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

Abstract
The rise in the use of biomaterials in bone regeneration in the last decade has exponentially multiplied the number of publications, methods, and approaches to improve and optimize their functionalities and applications. In particular, biomimetic strategies based on the self-assembly of molecules to design, create and characterize nanostructured materials have played a very relevant role. We address this idea on four different but related points: self-setting bone cements based on calcium phosphate, as stable tissue support and regeneration induction; metallic prosthesis coatings for cell adhesion optimization and prevention of inflammatory response exacerbation; bio-adhesive hybrid materials as multiple drug delivery localized platforms and finally bio-inks. The effect of the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the newest biomedical devices on their bone tissue regenerative capacity are summarized, described, and analyzed in detail. The roles of experimental conditions, characterization methods and synthesis routes are emphasized. Finally, the future opportunities and challenges of nanostructured biomaterials with their advantages and shortcomings are proposed in order to forecast the future directions of this field of research.

Abstract
Due to their natural biological activity and low immunogenicity, decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) materials have aroused interest as potential scaffold materials in tissue engineering. Decellularized small intestinal submucosa (SIS) is one ECM biomaterial that can be easily sourced. In the present study, we tested whether the osteogenesis of SIS scaffolds was enhanced via structural optimization and resveratrol (RSV) functionalization and explored the independent effects of these modifications. We obtained SIS scaffolds with different pore structures by controlling the preparation concentration. The group with superior osteogenic properties was further RSV-functionalized via covalent immobilization. We conducted a series of in vitro and in vivo studies to explore the effects of these two optimization strategies on the osteogenic properties of SIS scaffolds. The results showed that pore structure and RSV functionalization significantly affected the osteogenic properties of SIS scaffolds. With a fabrication concentration of 1%, the SIS scaffolds had superior osteogenic properties. Through covalent coupling, RSV was successfully grafted onto SIS scaffolds, where it was slowly released. The most significant improvements in osteogenic properties were obtained with a coupling concentration of 1%. Furthermore, in in vivo experiments, vascular and new bone tissue formation was enhanced with RSV/SIS scaffolds compared with SIS scaffolds and the blank control group at 4 weeks after implantation. These findings indicate that the RSV/SIS scaffolds obtained via dual optimization strategies show promise as biomaterials in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Post-operative infections in orthopaedic implants are severe complications that require urgent solutions. Although conventional antibiotics limit bacterial biofilm formation, they ignore the bone loss caused by osteoclast formation during post-operative orthopaedic implant-related infections. Fortunately, enoxacin exerts both antibacterial and osteoclast inhibitory effects, playing a role in limiting infection and preventing bone loss. However, enoxacin lacks specificity in bone tissue and low bioavailability-related adverse effects, which hinders translational practice. Here, we developed a nanosystem (Eno@MSN-D) based on enoxacin (Eno)-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN), decorated with the eight repeating sequences of aspartate (D-Asp8), and coated with polyethylene glycol The release results suggested that Eno@MSN-D exhibits a high sensitivity to acidic environment. Moreover, this Eno@MSN-D delivery nanosystem exhibited both antibacterial and anti-osteoclast properties in vitro. The cytotoxicity assay revealed no cytotoxicity at the low concentration (20 μg/ml) and Eno@MSN-D inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation. Importantly, Eno@MSN-D allowed the targeted release of enoxacin in infected bone tissue. Bone morphometric analysis and histopathology assays demonstrated that Eno@MSN-D has antibacterial and antiosteoclastic effects in vivo, thereby preventing implant-related infections and bone loss. Overall, our study highlights the significance of novel biomaterials that offer new alternatives to treat and prevent orthopaedic Staphylococcus aureus-related implantation infections and bone loss.

Abstract
Due to the possibility of bacterial infections occurring around peri-implant tissues, it is necessary to provide implant coatings that release antibacterial substances. The scientific goal of this paper was to produce by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) a smart, chitosan/Eudragit E 100/silver nanoparticles (chit/EE100/AgNPs) composite coating on the surface of titanium grade 2 using different deposition parameters, such as the content of AgNPs, applied voltage, and time of deposition. The morphology, surface roughness, thickness, chemical and phase composition, wettability, mechanical properties, electrochemical properties, and silver release rate at different pH were investigated. Using lower values of deposition parameters, coatings with more homogeneous morphology were obtained. The prepared coatings were sensitive to the reduced pH environment.

Abstract
Complex shaped and critical-sized bone defects have been a clinical challenge for many years. Scaffold-based strategies such as hydrogels provide localized drug release while filling complex defect shapes, but ultimately possess weaknesses in low mechanical strength alongside a lack of macroporous and collagen-mimicking nanofibrous structures. Thus, there is a demand for mechanically strong, extracellular matrix (ECM) mimicking scaffolds that can robustly fit complex shaped critical sized defects and simultaneously provide localized, sustained, multiple growth factor release. We therefore developed a composite, bi-phasic PCL/hydroxyapatite (HA) 3D nanofibrous (NF) scaffold for bone tissue regeneration by using our innovative electrospun-based thermally induced self-agglomeration (TISA) technique. One intriguing feature of our ECM-mimicking TISA scaffolds is that they are highly elastic and porous even after evenly coated with minerals and can easily be pressed to fit different defect shapes. Furthermore, the bio-mimetic mineral deposition technique allowed us to simultaneously encapsulate different type of drugs, e.g., proteins and small molecules, on TISA scaffolds under physiologically mild conditions. Compared to scaffolds with physically surface-adsorbed phenamil, a BMP2 signaling agonist, incorporated phenamil composite scaffolds indicated less burst release and longer lasting sustained release of phenamil with subsequently improved osteogenic differentiation of cells in vitro. Overall, our study indicated that the innovative press-fit 3D NF composite scaffold may be a robust tool for multiple-drug delivery and bone tissue engineering.

Strontium substituted hydroxyapatite with β-lactam integrin agonists to enhance mesenchymal cells adhesion and to promote bone regeneration. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2021; 200:111580.

Abstract
Multi-functionalization of calcium phosphates to get delivery systems of therapeutic agents is gaining increasing relevance for the development of functional biomaterials aimed to solve problems related to disorders of the muscolo-skeletal system. In this regard, we functionalized Strontium substituted hydroxyapatite (SrHA) with some β-lactam integrin agonists to develop materials with enhanced properties in promoting cell adhesion and activation of intracellular signaling as well as in counteracting abnormal bone resorption. For this purpose, we selected two monocyclic β-lactams on the basis of their activities towards specific integrins on promoting cell adhesion and signalling. The amount of β-lactams loaded on SrHA could be modulated on changing the polarity of the loading solution, from 3.5-24 wt% for compound 1 and from 3.2-8.4 wt% for compound 2. Studies on the release of the β-lactams from the functionalized SrHA in aqueous medium showed an initial burst followed by a steady-release that ensures a small but constant amount of the compounds over time. The new composites were fully characterized. Co-culture of human primary mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) and human primary osteoclast (OC) demonstrated that the presence of β-lactams on SrHA favors hMSC adhesion and viability, as well as differentiation towards osteoblastic lineage. Moreover, the β-lactams were found to enhance the inhibitory role of Strontium on osteoclast viability and differentiation.

Abstract
Traditional orthopaedic devices do not communicate with physicians or patients post-operatively. After implantation, follow-up of traditional orthopaedic devices is generally limited to episodic monitoring. However, the orthopaedic community may be shifting towards incorporation of smart technology. Smart technology in orthopaedics is a term that encompasses a wide range of potential applications. Smart orthopaedic implants offer the possibility of gathering data and exchanging it with an external reader. They incorporate technology that enables automated sensing, measuring, processing, and reporting of patient or device parameters at or near the implant. While including advanced technology in orthopaedic devices has the potential to benefit patients, physicians, and the scientific community, it may also increase the patient risks associated with the implants. Understanding the benefit-risk profile of new smart orthopaedic devices is critical to ensuring their safety and effectiveness. The 2018 FDA public workshop on orthopaedic sensing, measuring, and advanced reporting technology (SMART) devices was held on April 30, 2018, at the FDA White Oak Campus in Silver Spring, MD with the goal of fostering a collaborative dialogue amongst the orthopaedic community. Workshop attendees discussed four key areas related to smart orthopaedic devices: engineering and technology considerations, clinical and patient perspectives, cybersecurity, and regulatory considerations. The workshop presentations and associated discussions highlighted the need for the orthopaedic community to collectively craft a responsible path for incorporating smart technology in musculoskeletal disease care.

Abstract
Currently, a significant problem is the production of coatings for titanium implants, which will be characterized by mechanical properties comparable to those of a human bone, high corrosion resistance, and low degradation rate in the body fluids. This paper aims to describe the properties of novel chitosan/Eudragit E 100 (chit/EE100) coatings deposited on titanium grade 2 substrate by the electrophoretic technique (EPD). The deposition was carried out for different parameters like the content of EE100, time of deposition, and applied voltage. The microstructure, surface roughness, chemical and phase composition, wettability, mechanical and electrochemical properties, and degradation rate at different pH were examined in comparison to chitosan coating without the addition of Eudragit E 100. The applied deposition parameters significantly influenced the morphology of the coatings. The chit/EE100 coating with the highest homogeneity was obtained for Eudragit content of 0.25 g, at 10 V, and for 1 min. Young’s modulus of this sample (24.77 ± 5.50 GPa) was most comparable to that of human cortical bone. The introduction of Eudragit E 100 into chitosan coatings significantly reduced their degradation rate in artificial saliva at neutral pH while maintaining high sensitivity to pH changes. The chit/EE100 coatings showed a slightly lower corrosion resistance compared to the chitosan coating, however, significantly exceeding the substrate corrosion resistance. All prepared coatings were characterized by hydrophilicity.

Abstract
Bone defects of critical size after compound fractures, infections, or tumor resections are a challenge in treatment. Particularly, this applies to bone defects in patients with impaired bone healing due to frequently occurring metabolic diseases (above all diabetes mellitus and osteoporosis), chronic inflammation, and cancer. Adjuvant therapeutic agents such as recombinant growth factors, lipid mediators, antibiotics, antiphlogistics, and proangiogenics as well as other promising anti-resorptive and anabolic molecules contribute to improving bone healing in these disorders, especially when they are released in a targeted and controlled manner during crucial bone healing phases. In this regard, the development of smart biocompatible and biostable polymers such as implant coatings, scaffolds, or particle-based materials for drug release is crucial. Innovative chemical, physico- and biochemical approaches for controlled tailor-made degradation or the stimulus-responsive release of substances from these materials, and more, are advantageous. In this review, we discuss current developments, progress, but also pitfalls and setbacks of such approaches in supporting or controlling bone healing. The focus is on the critical evaluation of recent preclinical studies investigating different carrier systems, dual- or co-delivery systems as well as triggered- or targeted delivery systems for release of a panoply of drugs.

Abstract
Composite coatings are commonly applied to medical metal implants in order to improve biocompatibility and/or bioactivity. In this context, two types of titanium-based composite coatings have been reviewed as biocompatible and anti-bacterial coatings. The different composites can be synthesised on the surface of titanium using various methods, which have their own advantages and disadvantages. Moving with the smart and nanotechnology, multifunctional nanocomposite coatings have been introduced on implants and scaffolds for tissue engineering with the aim of providing more than one properties when required. In this context, titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes have been shown to enhance the properties of titanium-based implants as part of nanocomposite coatings.

Abstract
Self-defensive biomaterial surfaces are being developed in order to mitigate infection associated with tissue-contacting biomedical devices. Such infection occurs when microbes colonize the surface of a device and proliferate into a recalcitrant biofilm. A key intervention point centers on preventing the initial colonization. Incorporating antimicrobials within a surface coating can be very effective, but the traditional means of antimicrobial delivery by continuous elution can often be counterproductive. If there is no infection, continuous elution creates conditions that promote the development of resistant microbes throughout the patient. In contrast, a self-defensive coating releases antimicrobial only when and only where there is a microbial challenge to the surface. Otherwise, the antimicrobial remains sequestered within the coating and does not contribute to the development of resistance. A self-defensive surface requires a local trigger that signals the microbial challenge. Three such triggers have been identified as: (1) local pH lowering; (2) local enzyme release; and (3) direct microbial-surface contact. This short review highlights the need for self-defensive surfaces in the general context of the device-infection problem and then reviews key biomaterials developments associated with each of these three triggering mechanisms.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal disorders are becoming an ever-growing societal burden and, as a result, millions of bone replacements surgeries are performed per year worldwide. Despite total joint replacements being recognized among the most successful surgeries of the last century, implant failure rates exceeding 10% are still reported. These numbers highlight the necessity of technologies to provide an accurate monitoring of the bone–implant interface state. This study provides a detailed review of the most relevant methodologies and technologies already proposed to monitor the loosening states of endoprosthetic implants, as well as their performance and experimental validation. A total of forty-two papers describing both intracorporeal and extracorporeal technologies for cemented or cementless fixation were thoroughly analyzed. Thirty-eight technologies were identified, which are categorized into five methodologies: vibrometric, acoustic, bioelectric impedance, magnetic induction, and strain. Research efforts were mainly focused on vibrometric and acoustic technologies. Differently, approaches based on bioelectric impedance, magnetic induction and strain have been less explored. Although most technologies are noninvasive and are able to monitor different loosening stages of endoprosthetic implants, they are not able to provide effective monitoring during daily living of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aseptic loosening, as a consequence of an extended inflammatory reaction induced by wear particles, has been classified as one of the most common complications of total joint replacement (TJR). Despite its high incidence, no therapeutical approach has yet been found to prevent aseptic loosening, leaving revision as only effective treatment. The local delivery of anti-inflammatory drugs to modulate wear-induced inflammation has been regarded as a potential therapeutical approach to prevent aseptic-loosening. METHODS In this context, we developed and characterized anti-inflammatory drug-eluting TiO2 surfaces, using nanoparticles as a model for larger surfaces. The eluting surfaces were obtained by conjugating dexamethasone to carboxyl-functionalized TiO2 particles, obtained by using either silane agents with amino or mercapto moieties. RESULTS Zeta potential measurements, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and drug release results suggest that dexamethasone was successfully loaded onto the TiO2 particles. Release was pH dependent and greater amounts of drug were observed from amino route functionalized surfaces. The model-system was then tested for its cytotoxic and anti-inflammatory properties in LPS-stimulated macrophages. Dexamethasone released from amino route functionalized surfaces TiO2 particles was able to decrease LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) and TNF-a production similarly to pure DEX at the same concentration; DEX released from mercapto route functionalized surfaces was at a too low concentration to be effective. CONCLUSION Dexamethasone released from amino functionalized titanium can offer the possibility of preventing asepting loosening of joint replacement devices.

Abstract
Infections represent one of the most frequent causes of arthroplasty revision. Thus, design of new antimicrobial scaffolds to reduce implant rejections, bone infections and associated medical costs is highly desired. In recent years, essential oil components (EOCs) have merged as compounds with significant antimicrobial activity that can be attached to specific surfaces to enhance and prolong their antimicrobial effect. Herein calcium phosphate CaP regenerative materials have been coated with a vanillin derivative to combine its original bone regeneration properties with antimicrobial action of EOCs. Materials in form of microparticles and blocks were prepared and fully characterized. Clonogenic viability tests demonstrated that low concentrations of material (10 mg·mL-1) resulted effective to kill 100% of E. coli DH5α bacteria. Additionally, vanillin containing scaffolds did not display any toxic effect over cells, yet they preserve the ability to express alkaline phosphatase (ALPL), collagen type 1, chain α1 (COL1A1) and bone gamma-carboxyglutamic acid-containing protein or osteocalcin (BGLAP), which are genes typically expressed by osteoblasts. These results demonstrate that commercially available scaffolds can be functionalized with EOCs, achieving antimicrobial activity and open up a new approach for the treatment and prevention of infection. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: During the last years, the interest in bone regenerative materials with antibiotic properties has increased, since prosthesis infection is one of the most usual complications in implant surgery. In this work, we report a hybrid system composed by a calcium phosphate material (powders and scaffolds) functionalized with the derivative of an essential oil component (EOC). Our purpose was to provide the calcium phosphate material with antimicrobial activity without harming its bone regenerative capability. The obtained results were encouraging, which opens up the possibility of developing new modified materials for the prevention and treatment of bone infection.

Abstract
Glass ceramics are widely used to enhance the functionality of inert metallic materials typically used for hard-tissue engineering. Biofunctionality of glass ceramics can in turn be significantly boosted with the addition of trace element dopants. Herein, we synthesized a nanostructured glass ceramic and used magnesium (Mg), which is known to promote osteoblast adhesion and proliferation, for further functionalization. The nanostructured akermanite glass ceramic (Ca2MgSi2O7) was used to coat Ti6Al4V substrates by the sol-gel method. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy as well as X-ray diffraction were used to assess the structural morphology and phase composition of the coating, respectively. The micrographs showed a uniform and crack-free coating structure. Atomic force microscopy observation revealed a disordered surface roughness for coated samples. In vitro cytocompatibility tests revealed that Saos-2 cells cultured on bare samples adopted a rounded morphology, whereas cells cultured on the coated samples represented a more spread out configuration and also increased proliferation. The characterizing tests confirmed the efficiency of the synthesis method and the in vitro biocompatibility of the synthesized coating, indicating its suitability to be used for bone implants.

Abstract
Implant-associated infections in orthopaedic surgeries are very critical as they may hinder bone healing, cause implant failure and even progress to osteomyelitis. Drug-eluting implants for local delivery of antibiotics at surgical sites are thought to be promising in preventing infections. Herein, the antibiotic vancomycin was encapsulated in a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based hydrogel film that was covalently bound to Ti implants and subsequently covered by a PEG-poly(lactic-co-caprolactone) (PEG-PLC) membrane. Additionally, crosslinked starch (CSt) was mixed with the hydrogel because its porous microstructure is able to inhibit hydrogel swelling and thus slow down drug release. The release behavior could be regulated by the drug loading and the coating thickness. The vancomycin-loaded Ti implants showed no initial burst release, offering a sustained drug release for nearly 3 weeks in vitro and more than 4 weeks in vivo. In a rabbit model of S. aureus infection, the implants with a 4 mg vancomycin loading significantly reduced the inflammatory reaction and exhibited a good antimicrobial capability. The immobilization of the antibiotic-loaded polymeric coatings on orthopaedic implants can offer a sustainable drug release with no initial burst release and maintain an effective concentration for a longer time, so it is expected to be an effective strategy to treat and prevent local bone infections.

Effects of nanofeatures induced by severe shot peening (SSP) on mechanical, corrosion and cytocompatibility properties of magnesium alloy AZ31. Acta Biomater 2018; 66:93-108. [PMID: 29183850 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2017.11.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2017] [Revised: 10/31/2017] [Accepted: 11/20/2017] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
The application of biodegradable magnesium-based materials in the biomedical field is highly restricted by their low fatigue strength and high corrosion rate in biological environments. Herein, we treated the surface of a biocompatible magnesium alloy AZ31 by severe shot peening in order to evaluate the potential of surface grain refinement to enhance this alloy's functionality in a biological environment. The AZ31 samples were studied in terms of micro/nanostructural, mechanical, and chemical characteristics in addition to cytocompatibility properties. The evolution of surface grain structure and surface morphology were investigated using optical, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Surface roughness, wettability, and chemical composition, as well as in depth-microhardness and residual stress distribution, fatigue behaviour and corrosion resistance were investigated. Cytocompatibility tests with osteoblasts (bone forming cells) were performed using sample extracts. The results revealed for the first time that severe shot peening can significantly enhance mechanical properties of AZ31 without causing adverse effects on the growth of surrounding osteoblasts. The corrosion behavior, on the other hand, was not improved; nevertheless, removing the rough surface layer with a high density of crystallographic lattice defects, without removing the entire nanocrystallized layer, provided a good potential for improving corrosion characteristics after severe shot peening and thus, this method should be studied for a wide range of orthopedic applications in which biodegradable magnesium is used. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE A major challenge for most commonly used metals for bio-implants is their non-biodegradability that necessitates revision surgery for implant retrieval when used as fixation plates, screws, etc. Magnesium is reported among the most biocompatible metals that resorb over time without adverse tissue reactions and is indispensable for many biochemical processes in human body. However, fast and uncontrolled degradation of magnesium alloys in the physiological environment in addition to their inadequate mechanical properties especially under repeated loading have limited their application in the biomedical field. The present study providesdata on the effect of a relatively simple surface nanocrystallziation method with high potential to tailor the mechanical and chemical behavior of magnesium based material while maintaining its cytocompatibility.

Acta Biomater 2018; 65:450-461. [PMID: 29127064 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2017.11.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 53] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2017] [Revised: 10/16/2017] [Accepted: 11/07/2017] [Indexed: 01/13/2023]
Abstract
Multifunctional-therapeutic three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds have been prepared. These biomaterials are able to destroy the S. aureus bacterial biofilm and to allow bone regeneration at the same time. The present study is focused on the design of pH sensitive 3D hierarchical meso-macroporous 3D scaffolds based on MGHA nanocomposite formed by a mesostructured glassy network with embedded hydroxyapatite nanoparticles, whose mesopores have been loaded with levofloxacin (Levo) as antibacterial agent. These 3D platforms exhibit controlled and pH-dependent Levo release, sustained over time at physiological pH (7.4) and notably increased at infection pH (6.7 and 5.5), which is due to the different interaction rate between diverse Levo species and the silica matrix. These 3D systems are able to inhibit the S. aureus growth and to destroy the bacterial biofilm without cytotoxic effects on human osteoblasts and allowing an adequate colonization and differentiation of preosteoblastic cells on their surface. These findings suggest promising applications of these hierarchical MGHA nanocomposite 3D scaffolds for the treatment and prevention of bone infection. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Multifunctional 3D nanocomposite scaffolds with the ability for loading and sustained delivery of an antimicrobial agent, to eliminate and prevent bone infection and at the same time to contribute to bone regeneration process without cytotoxic effects on the surrounding tissue has been proposed. These 3D scaffolds exhibit a sustained levofloxacin delivery at physiological pH (pH 7.4), which increasing notably when pH decreases to characteristic values of bone infection process (pH 6.7 and pH 5.5). In vitro competitive assays between preosteoblastic and bacteria onto the 3D scaffold surface demonstrated an adequate osteoblast colonization in entire scaffold surface together with the ability to eliminate bacteria contamination.

Local delivery of strontium ranelate promotes regeneration of critical size bone defects filled with collagen sponge. J Biomed Mater Res A 2017; 106:333-341.

Abstract
The effect of local delivery of strontium ranelate (SR) on bone regeneration of critical size bone defects filled with collagen sponge was evaluated. Bone defects of 5 mm diameter created in rat calvaria were filled with collagen sponge (C); collagen sponge with 5 mM Sr2+ SR (C5SR) or collagen sponge with 50 mM Sr2+ SR (C50SR). After 2, 4, and 6 weeks, bone volume (BV), bone surface (BS), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), trabecular number (Tb.N), and trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) were evaluated by computed microtomography. At 6 weeks, histological analysis was performed. Intragroup comparisons were made by the Friedman test, while comparisons between groups were made by Kruskal-Wallis test (α = 5%). All groups showed increased BV, BS, Tb.Th, and Tb.N over time, but only C50SR promoted the reduction of Tb.Sp (p < 0.05). No significant differences between groups were detected at weeks 2 and 4. However, C50SR showed the highest values of BV, BS, and Tb.Th at 6 weeks (p < 0.05). Histological analysis revealed connective tissue in C and C5SR and immature bone tissue in C50SR. Local delivery of SR 50 mM Sr2+ associated with collagen sponge increased and accelerated bone regeneration in critical bone defects. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
