Revealing the influence of electron beam melted Ti-6Al-4V scaffolds on osteogenesis of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells.

ABSTRACT: Porous Titanium-6Aluminum-4Vanadium scaffolds made by electron beam-based additive manufacturing (AM) have emerged as state-of-the-art implant devices. However, there is still limited knowledge on how they influence the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs). In this study, BMSCs are cultured on such porous scaffolds to determine how the scaffolds influence the osteogenic differentiation of the cells. The scaffolds are biocompatible, as revealed by the increasing cell viability. Cells are evenly distributed on the scaffolds after 3 days of culturing followed by an increase in bone matrix development after 21 days of culturing. qPCR analysis provides insight into the cells' osteogenic differentiation, where RUNX2 expression indicate the onset of differentiation towards osteoblasts. The COL1A1 expression suggests that the differentiated osteoblasts can produce the osteoid. Alkaline phosphatase staining indicates an onset of mineralization at day 7 in OM. The even deposits of calcium at day 21 further supports a successful bone mineralization. This work shines light on the interplay between AM Ti64 scaffolds and bone growth, which may ultimately lead to a new way of creating long lasting bone implants with fast recovery times.

Project description:Metal additive manufacturing (AM) enables customizable, on-demand parts, allowing for new designs and improved engineering performance. Yet, the ability to control AM metal alloy microstructures (i.e., grain morphology, crystallographic texture, and phase content) is lacking. This work performs corroborative neutron diffraction and large-scale electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) measurements to assess crystallographic texture in electron beam melted (EBM) Ti-6Al-4V as a function of scan strategy and build height. Texture components for one raster and two spot melt scan strategies were evaluated using a triclinic specimen symmetry to capture all possible texture components, which were found to be considerably different than previously reported values from studies employing orthotropic specimen symmetry. This finding highlights the importance of a standard method and best practice for assessing textures produced by AM. Texture was found to vary between scan strategies, but changed minimally as a function of build height. Parent phase β-Ti reconstructions obtained from as-built crystallographic orientations revealed spot melt scan strategies produced finer equiaxed/columnar grains with clear 001 β build direction fiber textures, whereas the raster scan strategy produced large columnar grains and a weaker 001 β build direction fiber texture. The observed grain morphologies agree with those predicted by solidification theory for the thermal gradients and solidification velocities experienced during the build process. The presence of a strong 001 β fiber orientation (typical of cubic solidification) produced by spot melting was found to correlate with a previously unreported 011¯2α fiber texture in the as-built condition and colony microstructures. The 011¯2α fiber texture was weakly observed for the raster scan strategy, and 001 β oriented grains preferentially transformed into α' martensite with orientations between 11¯00α and 112¯0α . This shift in product α-Ti orientations has not yet been reported, and further work is recommended to understand these crystallographic signatures in the context of solid-state phase transformations. The presence of the 011¯2α fiber texture is proposed as a useful diagnostic for evaluating the solidification or transformed microstructure condition (e.g., grain morphology and texture) of Ti-6Al-4V AM builds via accessible techniques like laboratory X-ray diffraction.
