Adamuz-Jiménez A, Manzano-Moreno FJ, Vallecillo C. Regeneration Membranes Loaded with Non-Antibiotic Anti-2 Microbials: A Review. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 16:95. [PMID: 38201760 PMCID: PMC10781067 DOI: 10.3390/polym16010095] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Both guided bone and guided tissue regeneration are techniques that require the use of barrier membranes. Contamination and infection of the surgical area is one of the most feared complications. Some current lines of research focus on functionalizing these membranes with different antimicrobial agents. The objective of this study was to carry out a review of the use and antibacterial properties of regeneration membranes doped with antimicrobials such as zinc, silver, chlorhexidine, and lauric acid. The protocol was based on PRISMA recommendations, addressing the PICO question: "Do membranes doped with non-antibiotic antimicrobials have antibacterial activity that can reduce or improve infection compared to membranes not impregnated with said antimicrobial?" Methodological quality was evaluated using the RoBDEMAT tool. A total of 329 articles were found, of which 25 met the eligibility criteria and were included in this review. Most studies agree that zinc inhibits bacterial growth as it decreases colony-forming units, depending on the concentration used and the bacterial species studied. Silver compounds also decreased the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines and presented less bacterial adhesion to the membrane. Some concentrations of chlorhexidine that possess antimicrobial activity have shown high toxicity. Finally, lauric acid shows inhibition of bacterial growth measured by the disk diffusion test, the inhibition zone being larger with higher concentrations. Antimicrobial agents such as zinc, silver, chlorhexidine, and lauric acid have effective antibacterial activity and can be used to dope regenerative membranes in order to reduce the risk of bacterial colonization.

[PMID: 37352742 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2023.213528] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2023] [Revised: 06/13/2023] [Accepted: 06/14/2023] [Indexed: 06/25/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This systematic review evaluates the purpose, materials, physio-mechanical, and biological effects of bilayer scaffolds/membranes used for bone tissue engineering applications. METHODS A comprehensive electronic search of English-language literature from 2012 to October 2022 was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar online databases according to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The quality of animal studies was evaluated through the SYRCLE's risk of bias tool. RESULTS A total of 77 studies were sought for retrieval, and 39 studies met the inclusion criteria. According to the synthesis results, most bilayers had a dense barrier layer that prevented connective tissue penetration and a loose osteogenic layer that supported cell migration and osteogenesis. PLGA, PCL, and chitosan were the most common polymers in the barrier layers, while the most utilized polymers in osteogenic layers were PLGA and gelatin. Electrospinning and solvent casting were the most common fabrication methods to design the bilayer structures. Many studies reported higher biological results for bilayers compared to their single layers. Also, fabricated bilayers' in vitro osteogenesis and in vivo new bone formation were significantly superior or at least comparable to the frequently used commercial membranes. CONCLUSION 1) Bilayers with two distinct layers and different materials, porosities, mechanical properties, and biological behavior can significantly improve heterogeneous bone regeneration; 2) the addition of ceramics and/or drugs to the osteogenic layer enhances the osteogenic properties of the bilayers; 3) fabrication method and pore size of the layers play an important role in determining the mechanical and biological behavior of them.

Abstract
Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is an important surgical method for periodontal regeneration. By placing barrier membrane on the root surface of the tooth to guide the adhesion and proliferation of periodontal ligament cells, periodontal tissue regeneration can be achieved. This review intends to analyze the current limitations of GTR membranes and to propose possible solutions for developing new ones. Limitations of current GTR membranes include nonabsorbable membranes and absorbable synthetic polymer membranes exhibit weak biocompatibility; when applying to a large defect wound, the natural collagen membrane with fast degradation rate have limited mechanical strength, and the barrier function may not be maintained well. Although the degradation time can be prolonged after cross-linking, it may cause foreign body reaction and affect tissue integration; The clinical operation of current barrier membranes is inconvenient. In addition, most of the barrier membranes lack bioactivity and will not actively promote periodontal tissue regeneration. Possible solutions include using electrospinning (ELS) techniques, nanofiber scaffolds, or developing functional gradient membranes to improve their biocompatibility; adding Mg, Zn, and/or other metal alloys, or using 3D printing technology to improve their mechanical strength; increasing the concentration of nanoparticles or using directional arrangement of membrane fibers to control the fiber diameter and porosity of the membrane, which can improve their barrier function; mixing natural and synthetic polymers as well as other biomaterials with different degradation rates in proportion to change the degradation rate and maintain barrier function; to improve the convenience of clinical operation, barrier membranes that meets personalized adhesion to the wound defect can be manufactured; developing local controlled release drug delivery systems to improve their bioactivity. Impact statement This review provides an up-to-date summary of commonly commercial periodontal guided tissue regeneration membranes, and analyze their limitations in clinical use. Using studies published recently to explore possible solutions from several perspectives and to raise possible strategies in the future. Several strategies have tested in vivo/in vitro, which will guide the way to propel clinical translation, meeting clinical needs.

Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2023; 226:113318. [PMID: 37075523 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2023.113318] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2022] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/21/2023]
Abstract
Barrier membranes are critical in creating tissuecompartmentalization for guided tissue (GTR) and bone regeneration (GBR) therapies. More recently, resorbable membranes have been widely used for tissue and bone regeneration due to their improved properties and the dispensable re-entry surgery for membrane removal. However, in cases with membrane exposure, this may lead to microbial contamination that will compromise the integrity of the membrane, surrounding tissue, and bone regeneration, resulting in treatment failure. Although the microbial infection can negatively influence the clinical outcomes of regenerative therapy, such as GBR and GTR, there is a lack of clinical investigations in this field, especially concerning the microbial colonization of different types of membranes. Importantly, a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of biofilm growth and composition and pathogenesis on exposed membranes is still missing, explaining the mechanisms by which bone regeneration is reduced during membrane exposure. This scoping review comprehensively screened and discussed the current in vivo evidence and possible new perspectives on the microbial contamination of resorbable membranes. Results from eligible in vivo studies suggested that different bacterial species colonized exposed membranes according to their composition (collagen, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (non-resorbable), and polylactic acid), but in all cases, it negatively affected the attachment level and amount of bone gain. However, limited models and techniques have evaluated the newly developed materials, and evidence is scarce. Finally, new approaches to enhance the antimicrobial effect should consider changing the membrane surface or incorporating long-term released antimicrobials in an effort to achieve better clinical success.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a chronic infectious and inflammatory disease of periodontal tissues estimated to affect 70 - 80 % of all adults. At the same time, periodontium, the site of periodontal pathologies, is an extraordinarily complex plexus of soft and hard tissues, the regeneration of which using even the most advanced forms of tissue engineering continues to be a challenge. Nanotechnologies, meanwhile, have provided exquisite tools for producing biomaterials and pharmaceutical formulations capable of elevating the efficacies of standard pharmacotherapies and surgical approaches to whole new levels. A bibliographic analysis provided here demonstrates a continuously increasing research output of studies on the use of nanotechnologies in the management of periodontal disease, even when they are normalized to the total output of studies on periodontitis. The great majority of biomaterials used to tackle periodontitis, including those that pioneered this interesting field, have been polymeric. In this article, a chronological review of polymeric nanotechnologies for the treatment of periodontitis is provided, focusing on the major conceptual innovations since the late 1990s, when the first nanostructures for the treatment of periodontal diseases were fabricated. In the opening sections, the etiology and pathogenesis of periodontitis and the anatomical and histological characteristics of the periodontium are being described, along with the general clinical manifestations of the disease and the standard means of its therapy. The most prospective chemistries in the design of polymers for these applications are also elaborated. It is concluded that the amount of innovation in this field is on the rise, despite the fact that most studies are focused on the refinement of already established paradigms in tissue engineering rather than on the development of revolutionary new concepts.
