Synergistic effect of hierarchical topographic structure on 3D-printed Titanium scaffold for enhanced coupling of osteogenesis and angiogenesis.

ABSTRACT: The significance of the osteogenesis-angiogenesis relationship in the healing process of bone defects has been increasingly emphasized in recent academic research. Surface topography plays a crucial role in guiding cellular behaviors. Metal-organic framework (MOF) is an innovative biomaterial with nanoscale structural and topological features, enabling the modulation of scaffold physicochemical properties. This study involved the loading of varying quantities of UiO-66 nanocrystals onto alkali-heat treated 3D-printed titanium scaffolds, resulting in the formation of hierarchical micro/nano topography named UiO-66/AHTs. The physicochemical properties of these scaffolds were subsequently characterized. Furthermore, the impact of these scaffolds on the osteogenic potential of BMSCs, the angiogenic potential of HUVECs, and their intercellular communication were investigated. The findings of this study indicated that 1/2UiO-66/AHT outperformed other groups in terms of osteogenic and angiogenic induction, as well as in promoting intercellular crosstalk by enhancing paracrine effects. These results suggest a promising biomimetic hierarchical topography design that facilitates the coupling of osteogenesis and angiogenesis.

Project description:BackgroundFemoral stem of titanium alloy has been widely used for hip arthroplasty with considerable efficacy; however, the application of this implant in patients with osteoporosis is limited due to excessive bone resorption. Macrophages participate in the regulation of inflammatory response and have been a topic of increasing research interest in implant field. However, few study has explored the link between macrophage polarization and osteogenic-osteoclastic differentiation. The present study aims to develop a novel hierarchical biofunctionalized 3D-printed porous Ti6Al4V scaffold with enhanced osteoporotic osseointegration through immunotherapy.MethodTo improve the osteointegration under osteoporosis, we developed a hierarchical biofunctionalized 3D-printed porous Ti6Al4V scaffold (PT). Biomimetic extracellular matrix (ECM) was constructed inside the interconnected pores of PT in micro-scale. And in nano-scale, a drug cargo icariin@Mg-MOF-74 (ICA@MOF) was wrapped in ECM-like structure that can control release of icariin and Mg2+.ResultsIn this novel hierarchical biofunctionalized 3D-printed porous Ti6Al4V scaffold, the macroporous structure provides mechanical support, the microporous structure facilitates cell adhesion and enhances biocompatibility, and the nanostructure plays a biological effect. We also demonstrate the formation of abundant new bone at peripheral and internal sites after intramedullary implantation of the biofunctionalized PT into the distal femur in osteoporotic rats. We further find that the controlled-release of icariin and Mg2+ from the biofunctionalized PT can significantly improve the polarization of M0 macrophages to M2-type by inhibiting notch1 signaling pathway and induce the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines; thus, it significantly ameliorates bone metabolism, which contributes to improving the osseointegration between the PT and osteoporotic bone.ConclusionThe therapeutic potential of hierarchical PT implants containing controlled release system are effective in geriatric orthopaedic osseointegration.

Project description:Background/Objective: Tissue engineering involves scaffolds, cells and growth factors, among which growth factors have limited applications due to potential safety risks and high costs. Therefore, an alternative approach to exogenously induce osteogenesis is desirable. Considering that osteogenesis and angiogenesis are coupled, a system of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and human bone mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) coculture is more biologically adapted to the microenvironment in vivo and can mediate osteogenesis and angiogenesis via paracrine signalling. Hence, in this study, a HUVECs/hBMSCs coculture system with appropriate cell and medium proportions was established. The substrate for the coculture system was a 3D-printed composite bioceramic scaffold (β-TCP/CaSiO3) based on a previous study. The aim of this study was to explore the potential of this system for bone tissue engineering.MethodsBioactive ceramic scaffolds for tissue engineering were fabricated via a 3D Bioplotter™ system. The coculture system for in vitro and in vivo studies consisted of direct contact between HUVECs and hBMSCs cultured on the 3D-printed scaffolds.ResultsThe proportions of HUVECs/hBMSCs and medium components were determined by cell viability, and the coculture system showed negligible cytotoxicity. CD31 secreted by HUVECs formed strings, and cells tended to aggregate in island chain-like arrays. Real-time cell tracking showed that HUVECs were recruited by hBMSCs, and the integrin expression by HUVECs was upregulated. Ultimately, osteogenic and angiogenic marker gene expression and protein secretion were upregulated. Moreover, the obtained bone tissue engineering scaffolds could induce early osteogenic protein secretion and capillary tube formation in nude rats.ConclusionThese bone tissue engineering scaffolds without exogenous growth factors exhibited the ability to promote osteogenesis/angiogenesis.Translational potential of this articleThe fabricated 3D-printed bioactive ceramic scaffolds could provide mechanical, biodegradable and bioadaptive support for personalized bone regeneration. In addition, the bone tissue engineering scaffolds exhibited the ability to promote osteogenesis/angiogenesis without the addition of exogenous growth factors, thus mitigating safety risks. Although application of the HUVECs/hBMSCs coculture system might be a time-consuming process, further development of cord blood storage could be beneficial for multicell coculture.
