Lukina Y, Safronova T, Smolentsev D, Toshev O. Calcium Phosphate Cements as Carriers of Functional Substances for the Treatment of Bone Tissue. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:4017. [PMID: 37297151 PMCID: PMC10254876 DOI: 10.3390/ma16114017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2023] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Interest in calcium phosphate cements as materials for the restoration and treatment of bone tissue defects is still high. Despite commercialization and use in the clinic, the calcium phosphate cements have great potential for development. Existing approaches to the production of calcium phosphate cements as drugs are analyzed. A description of the pathogenesis of the main diseases of bone tissue (trauma, osteomyelitis, osteoporosis and tumor) and effective common treatment strategies are presented in the review. An analysis of the modern understanding of the complex action of the cement matrix and the additives and drugs distributed in it in relation to the successful treatment of bone defects is given. The mechanisms of biological action of functional substances determine the effectiveness of use in certain clinical cases. An important direction of using calcium phosphate cements as a carrier of functional substances is the volumetric incorporation of anti-inflammatory, antitumor, antiresorptive and osteogenic functional substances. The main functionalization requirement for carrier materials is prolonged elution. Various release factors related to the matrix, functional substances and elution conditions are considered in the work. It is shown that cements are a complex system. Changing one of the many initial parameters in a wide range changes the final characteristics of the matrix and, accordingly, the kinetics. The main approaches to the effective functionalization of calcium phosphate cements are considered in the review.

Calcium phosphate bone cements as local drug delivery systems for bone cancer treatment. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2023; 148:213367. [PMID: 36921461 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2023.213367] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2022] [Revised: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 02/26/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023]
Abstract
Bone cancer is usually a metastatic disease, affecting people of all ages. Its effective therapy requires a targeted drug administration locally at the cancer site so that the surrounding healthy organs and tissues stay unharmed. Upon a thorough literature search, a tremendous number of published articles are reporting on development of calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) for the treatment of a variety of diseases, such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, osteomyelitis, and other musculoskeletal disorders. However, just a limited number of research employs CPCs specifically for bone cancer treatment. In this review article, we study the factors influencing the local drug release from CPCs and particularly focus on bone cancer therapy. Finally, we locate the deficiencies in the literature regarding this specific topic and propose which other perspectives should be considered and discussed in future articles.

Abstract
Injectable calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) represent promising candidates for the regeneration of complex-shape bone defects, thanks to self-hardening ability, bioactive composition and nanostructure offering high specific surface area for cell attachment and conduction. Such features make CPCs also interesting for functionalization with various biomolecules, towards the generation of multifunctional devices with enhanced therapeutic ability. In particular, strontium-doped CPCs have been studied in the last years due to the intrinsic antiosteoporotic character of strontium. In this work, a SrCPC previously reported as osteointegrative and capable to modulate the fate of bone cells was enriched with hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HA-NPs) functionalized with tetracycline (TC) to provide antibacterial activity. We found that HA-NPs functionalized with TC (NP-TC) can act as modulator of the drug release profile when embedded in SrCPCs, thus providing a sustained and tunable TC release. In vitro microbiological tests on Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus strains proved effective bacteriostatic and bactericidal properties, especially for the NP-TC loaded SrCPC formulations. Overall, our results indicate that the addition of NP-TC on CPC acted as effective modulator towards a tunable drug release control in the treatment of bone infections or cancers.

Abstract
Thanks to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, injectability and self-setting properties, calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) have been the most economical and effective biomaterials of choice for use as bone void fillers. They have also been extensively used as drug delivery carriers owing to their ability to provide for a steady release of various organic molecules aiding the regeneration of defective bone, including primarily antibiotics and growth factors. This review provides a systematic compilation of studies that reported on the controlled release of drugs from CPCs in the last 25 years. The chemical, compositional and microstructural characteristics of these systems through which the control of the release rates and mechanisms could be achieved have been discussed. In doing so, the effects of (i) the chemistry of the matrix, (ii) porosity, (iii) additives, (iv) drug types, (v) drug concentrations, (vi) drug loading methods and (vii) release media have been distinguished and discussed individually. Kinetic specificities of in vivo release of drugs from CPCs have been reviewed, too. Understanding the kinetic and mechanistic correlations between the CPC properties and the drug release is a prerequisite for the design of bone void fillers with drug release profiles precisely tailored to the application area and the clinical picture. The goal of this review has been to shed light on these fundamental correlations.

J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2021; 110:412-421. [PMID: 34302429 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.34917] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2021] [Revised: 07/03/2021] [Accepted: 07/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
Designing hydrogels for controlled drug delivery remains a big challenge. We developed a calcium polyphosphate hydrogel (CPP) as matrix for delivery of vancomycin (VCM) and erythromycin (EM) by unique ionic binding and physical wrapping. In this continuing study, we investigated if gel discs prepared by mechanical compaction (at 3000 psi pressure, C-discs) is superior to that of discs prepared by regular manual compaction (M-discs) for the release of VCM and EM (10 wt.%). Data demonstrated a significant reduction of burst release of VCM and EM in C-discs (1.8% and 5%, respectively) as compared to that from M-discs within 72 hr (55% and 60%, respectively, p < 0.05). In addition, C-discs significantly extended the VCM release (1500 hr) and EM (800 hr) as compared to M-discs (160 and 96 hr, respectively, p < 0.05). The VCM released from C-discs retained its bactericidal activity much longer (1500 hr) than that from M-discs (700 hr, p < 0.05). Raman Spectroscopy indicated an ionic bond of both VCM and EM with fully hydrated polyphosphate chains of CPP hydrogel matrix for both M-discs and C-discs. Micro CT showed that C-discs had much denser microstructures and less number/depth of microcracks as a result of high pressure. We propose that CPP hydrogel represents an excellent tool for the controllable and sustained delivery of VCM and EM. Extensive experiments are currently underway to evaluate the potential impacts of the modification of compaction techniques, other antibiotics, gel concentrations on the drug release, degradation behavior and infection control both in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
In early 1980s, researchers discovered self-setting calcium orthophosphate cements, which are bioactive and biodegradable grafting bioceramics in the form of a powder and a liquid. After mixing, both phases form pastes, which set and harden forming either a non-stoichiometric calcium deficient hydroxyapatite or brushite. Since both of them are remarkably biocompartible, bioresorbable and osteoconductive, self-setting calcium orthophosphate formulations appear to be promising bioceramics for bone grafting. Furthermore, such formulations possess excellent molding capabilities, easy manipulation and nearly perfect adaptation to the complex shapes of bone defects, followed by gradual bioresorption and new bone formation. In addition, reinforced formulations have been introduced, which might be described as calcium orthophosphate concretes. The discovery of self-setting properties opened up a new era in the medical application of calcium orthophosphates and many commercial trademarks have been introduced as a result. Currently such formulations are widely used as synthetic bone grafts, with several advantages, such as pourability and injectability. Moreover, their low-temperature setting reactions and intrinsic porosity allow loading by drugs, biomolecules and even cells for tissue engineering purposes. In this review, an insight into the self-setting calcium orthophosphate formulations, as excellent bioceramics suitable for both dental and bone grafting applications, has been provided.

Abstract
UNLABELLED BACKGROUND The design and applications of antimicrobial polymers is a growing field. Antimicrobial polymers can help to solve the problems associated with the use of conventional antimicrobial agents. Polymers with active functional groups can act as a carrier system for antimicrobial agents. In our study, we aim to prepare and develop some antimicrobial polymers for biomedical applications and water treatment. RESULTS The antimicrobial polymers based on polyacrylonitrile (PAN) were prepared. Functional groups were created onto polyacrylonitrile via amination using different types of diamines such as ethylenediamine (EDA) and hexamethylenediamine (HMDA) to yield amine-terminated polymers. Antimicrobial polymers were obtained by immobilization of benzaldehyde and its derivatives which include, 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde onto amine-terminated polymers. The antimicrobial activity of the prepared polymers against different types of microorganisms including Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus), Gram-negative bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa; Escherichia coli; and Salmonella typhi) as well as fungi (Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Candida albicans, Cryptpcoccus neoformans) were explored by the cut plug method and viable cell counting methods. CONCLUSIONS Amine-terminated polyacrylonitrile were used as a novel polymeric carrier for benzaldehyde derivatives as antimicrobial agents. The prepared polymers can inhibit the growth of the microorganisms. The activity was varied according to the tested microorganism as well as the polymer microstructure. It was found that the activity increased with increasing the number phenolic hydroxyl group of the bioactive group. Finally, it is anticipated that the prepared antimicrobial polymers would be of great help in the field of biomedical applications and biological water treatment.

Abstract
In bone disorders infections are common. The concentration of majority of antibiotics is very low in the bone tissue. A high local dose can be obtained from the ciprofloxacin-loaded hydroxyapatite nanoparticles. The present study is aimed at developing the use of hydroxyapatite and zinc-doped hydroxyapatite nanoparticles as a carrier for ciprofloxacin drug delivery system. The ciprofloxacin-loaded hydroxyapatite and zinc-doped hydroxyapatite have a good antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. Hydroxyapatite and zinc-doped hydroxyapatite were prepared and characterized using X-ray diffraction, Transmission electron microscopy and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. They were loaded with ciprofloxacin using optimized drug loading parameters. Drug loading, in vitro drug release and antimicrobial activity were analyzed. The influence of zinc on the controlled release of ciprofloxacin was analyzed. The results show that the presence of zinc increases the drug release percentage and that the drug was released in a controlled manner.

Abstract
Semi-interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and polyacrylic acid were prepared and its potential for controlled release of ciprofloxacine (Cfx) was assessed. The IPNs were characterized by IR spectral analysis and Environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM). The entrapped drug was examined for its antibacterial activity and chemical stability. The effects of experimental parameters such as varying chemical composition of the IPNs, percent loading of Cfx, pH and temperature of release medium and presence of salt ions in outer solution were examined on the release profile of the drug. On the basis of Fick's power law equations, the diffusion exponents (n) and diffusion constant (D) were evaluated for different IPNs compositions. From the kinetic parameter data, an attempt was made to resolve the mechanism of the release process of Cfx.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the adsorption and desorption kinetics of antibiotics to microporous bioceramics fabricated by a novel low temperature 3D powder direct printing process. The adsorption of vancomycin, ofloxacin and tetracycline onto hydroxyapatite, brushite and monetite showed a linear correlation with the drug concentration in the immersion solution, whereas a non-linear relationship was found between the immersion time and the amount of adsorbed drug. Differences in the total amount of adsorbed drugs were correlated to the specific surface areas of the matrices, which varied between 2.4-13.1 m(2)/g. Normalised drug loadings were found to be in the range of 1.5-1.8 mg/m(2) for vancomycin and ofloxacin, whereas higher loads of up to 5-7 mg/m(2) were obtained for tetracycline. Vancomycin and ofloxacin were rapidly released into PBS buffer within 1-2 days, while tetracycline showed a much slower release rate of approximately 25% after 5 days of immersion. Additional polymer impregnation of the drug loaded matrix with PLA/PGA polymer solutions enabled the release kinetics to be delayed such that sustained release was achieved in polymer ceramic biocomposites.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the in vitro-in vivo degradation and tissue compatibility of three novel biopolymers viz. polymerized rosin (PR), glycerol ester of polymerized rosin (GPR) and pentaerythritol ester of polymerized rosin (PPR) and study their potential as implant matrix for the delivery of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride. Free films of polymers were used for in vitro degradation in PBS (pH 7.4) and in vivo in rat subcutaneous model. Sample weight loss, molecular weight decline, and morphological changes were analyzed after periodic intervals (30, 60, and 90 days) to monitor the degradation profile. Biocompatibility was evaluated by examination of the inflammatory tissue response to the implanted films on postoperative days 7, 14, 21, and 28. Furthermore, direct compression of dry blends of various polymer matrices with 20%, 30%, and 40% w/w drug loading was performed to investigate their potential for implant systems. The implants were characterized in terms of porosity and ciprofloxacin release. Biopolymer films showed slow rate of degradation, in vivo rate being faster on comparative basis. Heterogeneous bulk degradation was evident with the esterified products showing faster rates than PR. Morphologically all the films were stiff and intact with no significant difference in their appearance. The percent weight remaining in vivo was 90.70 +/- 6.2, 85.59 +/- 5.8, and 75.56 +/- 4.8 for PR, GPR, and PPR films respectively. Initial rapid drop in Mw was demonstrated with nearly 20.0% and 30.0% decline within 30 days followed by a steady decline to nearly 40.0% and 50.0% within 90 days following in vitro and in vivo degradation respectively. Biocompatibility demonstrated by acute and subacute tissue reactions showed minimal inflammatory reactions with prominent fibrous encapsulation and absence of necrosis demonstrating good tissue compatibility to the extent evaluated. All implants showed erosion and increase in porosity that affected the drug release. Increase in drug loading significantly altered the ciprofloxacin release in extended dissolution studies. PPR produced drug release >90% over a period of 90 days promising its utility in implant systems. The results demonstrated the utility of novel film forming biopolymers as implant matrix for controlled/sustained drug delivery with excellent biocompatibility characteristics.

Abstract
Calcium polyphosphate (CPP) antibiotic delivery matrices were prepared using a unique processing technique involving the exposure of antibiotic-loaded CPP pastes to high humidity for 0, 5, or 24 h. After the designated gelling period, samples were dried for a minimum of 24 h. At several time points out to 130 h, the elution medium was monitored for vancomycin, Ca2+ ion and ortho and poly phosphate release levels. Vancomycin activity was also assessed after 1, 24 and 130 h, while solution 31P-NMR was used to monitor changes in chain length within a 24 hr gelled VCM disc throughout the elution process. The gelling and drying process significantly reduced the rate of vancomycin release during the initial 2-4 h of elution, while extending the effective antibiotic release period by an additional 80 h. The mild conditions associated with matrix fabrication readily allowed for vancomycin incorporation within an environment that did not disrupt antibiotic activity. Throughout the elution process, all sample groups experienced considerable swelling followed by some apparent bulk erosion. Phosphate chain lysis was clearly observed by the end of the elution period. Generally, no strong or consistent correlation existed between matrix degradation and antibiotic release for the treatment groups investigated. An ability to delay antibiotic release using CPPs in conjunction with this protocol supports further investigations into the potential of this matrix as a localized drug delivery system.

Abstract
An improved wound dressing with a long-term drug diffusion-efficacy has been developed by UV-radiation technique. It involves incorporation of ciprofloxacin (CIP), at the concentration of 0.5-2.0% (w/v), into a water mixture of 2-hydroxymethacrylate (HEMA) monomer, benzoin isobutyl ether (BIE) initiator and different content of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) cross-linker. Increasing the concentration of EGDMA would reduce the releasing ratio of CIP from pHEMA. T1/2 is increased from 2.64 to 45.67 h when the EGDMA is added from 1 to 8%. In the ranges of 0< or = F < or = 0.6, the n value of 1%CIP-pHEMA membranes is increased from 0.48 to 0.81. It indicates that the mechanism of drug release falls between the Fickian and Case II diffusion model. The antibacterial activity of the drug impregnated into the membrane was evaluated by in vitro drug kinetic agar plate method. Higher concentration of EGDMA, up to 8% of the cross-linker, extends the drug release. Comparison with the drug-soaked membranes, the newly synthesized 1% CIP-pHEMA membrane (cross-linked with 4% EGDMA) sustains the release of the entrapped drug and maintains the antibacterial activity up to 12 days.

Abstract
Conventional treatment of osteomyelitis involves the repeated surgical removal of dead bone tissue coupled with repeated irrigation of the wound and prolonged systemic administration of antibiotics. Therapy of bone infections could easily last the rest of the patient's life because of the poor accessibility of the infection site by common systemically administered antibiotics. The objective of the present study is to develop a novel bone bioactive resorbable nanocomposite that can serve as a delivery system for antibiotics. We synthesized three different samples of porous bioactive resorbable silica-calcium phosphate nanocomposite (C3S1, C1S1, and C1S3) that has the ability to provide a sustained release of effective dose of gentamicin for 28 days. Porosity measurements showed that the average pore diameter of C3S1, C1S1, and C1S3 samples is 44.8, 54.4, and 70.9 nm, respectively. Moreover, the silica-rich composite (C1S3) is characterized by a significantly higher surface area (155.8 m(2)/g) than the silica-poor samples (C3S1) (42.9 m(2)/g). For all samples, the release profile study showed initial burst release followed by a sustained release of gentamicin. The released gentamicin has a strong inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. In addition FTIR analysis showed the formation of a biological apatite layer on the material surface after 24 h of immersion in simulated body fluid. Results of the study suggest that the silica-calcium phosphate nanocomposite can serve as a delivery vehicle for gentamicin to treat osteomyelitis and regenerate bone.

Abstract
To elucidate the antibiotic release mechanism from implants composed of calcium phosphates (hydroxyapatite [HAP] and tricalcium phosphate [TCP]), 30 kDa poly(DL-lactide) (PLA-30) and ciprofloxacin (CFX), nine formulations were prepared. In vitro results show that the release rate decreased as compression load and PLA/phosphates ratio increased. In contrast, a slower percent release rate was observed with higher drug loading. Swelling-erosion-disintegration of the implants was observed during the release assays, due to CFX swelling. Two CFX implant formulations were selected for implantation in the femur of rabbits, according to in vitro results. The implant drug loads tested were 10% and 40% of CFX. The in vivo results showed that the antibiotic concentrations achieved throughout the femur were higher for 4 weeks than the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) against the most common of the pathogens that cause osteomyelitis. The CFX-10% implant was considered the best formulation as CFX was totally released within 6 weeks, and therapeutic bone levels were achieved, and the histological and radiographic analyses showed the osteoconductive properties of the materials. All these results showed that CFX release is limited by its solubility, and the erosion-disintegration and bone ingrowth into the implants enhanced the antibiotic release.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to characterize in vitro the potential of crosslinked high amylose starch (CLHAS) as an implant matrix for the delivery of ciprofloxacin (CFX). Direct compression of dry blends of four different matrices: control CLHAS; CLHAS with 1% hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO); and CLHAS with 10 or 20% hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), each of them with three CFX loadings (2.5, 5.0 and 7.5%) was performed to prepare twelve implant formulations. All CLHAS implants were used for 24-h dissolution tests to evaluate swelling, erosion, water uptake and CFX release. Additionally, 1%-HVO- CLHAS implants were used for an extended dissolution test. The presence of HPMC in the matrix increased CFX release rate, swelling, erosion and water uptake in a concentration-dependent manner whereas HVO had no effect. With increasing drug loading, a decrease of cumulative CFX percent release was observed in both 24-h and extended dissolution tests. Of the different formulations tested, CLHAS implants with 1% HVO and 7.5% CFX provided the longest period of drug delivery without any initial burst effect.
