Abstract
Steroid-associated osteonecrosis (SAON) is a chronic disease that leads to the destruction and collapse of bone near the joint that is subjected to weight bearing, ultimately resulting in a loss of hip and knee function. Zn2+ ions, as an essential trace element, have functional roles in improving the immunophysiological cellular environment, accelerating bone regeneration, and inhibiting biofilm formation. In this study, we reconstruct SAON lesions with a three-dimensional (3D)-a printed composite made of poly (epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) and nanoparticulate Willemite (npW). Rabbit bone marrow stem cells were used to evaluate the cytocompatibility and osteogenic differentiation capability of the PCL/npW composite scaffolds. The 2-month bone regeneration was assessed by a Micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) scan and the expression of bone regeneration proteins by Western blot. Compared with the neat PCL group, PCL/npW scaffolds exhibited significantly increased cytocompatibility and osteogenic activity. This finding reveals a new concept for the design of a 3D-printed PCL/npW composite-based bone substitute for the early treatment of osteonecrosis defects.

Abstract
Current methods for determining the cellular effects of a treatment modality need expensive materials and much time to provide a researcher with results. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of nonlinear optical characteristics of cancer cells using Z-scan technique to monitor the level of cellular uptake and cell damage caused by a nanotechnology based treatment modality. Two nanocomplexes were synthesized and characterized. The first one was made of alginate hydrogel co-loaded with cisplatin and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) named as ACA nanocomplex. The second one, named as AA nanocomplex, was the same as ACA, but without cisplatin and this AA nanocomplex was considered as the control for ACA. Different groups of CT26 mouse colon cancer cell line received various treatments of cisplatin, ACA, and AA nanocomplexes and then the samples were prepared for Z-scan studies. The MTT assay was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity induced by different treatment modalities. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) were used for qualitative and quantitative assessments of the level of AuNPs cellular uptake. The trend of nonlinear optical properties changes for treated cells was in agreement with MTT, TEM and ICP-MS results. Z-scan technique was able to successfully indicate the occurrence of cell damage. It was also capable to determine the intensity of cell damage induced by ACA nanocomplex in comparison to free cisplatin. Furthermore, Z-scan results showed that it was able to discriminate the differences of optical properties of the cells incubated with ACA nanocomplex for various incubation times. Nonlinear optical characteristics of a cell may be considered as a reliable indicator to predict the level of cellular effects induced by a nanotechnology based treatment modality. The protocol suggested in this article does not waste materials, not take much time to provide the results, and it is inexpensive technique.

Abstract
Hyperthermia treatment can induce component changes on cell. This study explored the potential of Z-scan to improve accuracy in the identification of subtle differences in mouse colon cancer cell line CT26 during hyperthermia treatment. Twenty-one samples were subjected individually to treatment of hyperthermia at 41, 43, and 45 °C. Each hyperthermia treatment was done in six different time (15, 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 min). Two optical setups were used to investigate the linear and nonlinear optical behavior of samples. Prior to the Z-scan technique, all samples were fixed with 1 mL of 5% paraformaldehyde. The linear optical setup indicated that extinction coefficient cannot monitor cell changes at different treatment regimes. But the nonlinear behavior of CT26 in all hyperthermia treatment regimens was different. By increasing the time and/or temperature of hyperthermia treatments, change in the sign of nonlinear refractive index from negative to positive occurred in earlier time intervals. This phenomenon was seen for 41, 43, and 45 °C in 75, 60, and 45 min, respectively. The results showed that the Z-scan technique is a reliable method with the potential to characterize cell changes during hyperthermia treatment regimes. Nonlinear refractive index can be used as a new index for evaluation of cell damage.
