Hydroxyapatite nanowire/collagen elastic porous nanocomposite and its enhanced performance in bone defect repair.

ABSTRACT: The synthetic bone grafts that mimic the composition and structure of human natural bone exhibit great potential for application in bone defect repair. In this study, a biomimetic porous nanocomposite consisting of ultralong hydroxyapatite nanowires (UHANWs) and collagen (Col) with 66.7 wt% UHANWs has been prepared by the freeze drying process and subsequent chemical crosslinking. Compared with the pure collagen as a control sample, the biomimetic UHANWs/Col porous nanocomposite exhibits significantly improved mechanical properties. More significantly, the rehydrated UHANWs/Col nanocomposite exhibits an excellent elastic behavior. Moreover, the biomimetic UHANWs/Col porous nanocomposite has a good degradable performance with a sustained release of Ca and P elements, and can promote the adhesion and spreading of mesenchymal stem cells. The in vivo evaluation reveals that the biomimetic UHANWs/Col porous nanocomposite can significantly enhance bone regeneration compared with the pure collagen sample. After 12 weeks implantation, the woven bone and lamellar bone are formed throughout the entire UHANWs/Col porous nanocomposite, and connect directly with the host bone to construct a relatively normal bone marrow cavity, leading to successful osteointegration and bone reconstruction. The as-prepared biomimetic UHANWs/Col porous nanocomposite is promising for applications in various fields such as bone defect repair.

Project description:Introductionpoly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) has been approved for clinical use by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA); however, their stronger hydrophobicity and relatively fast degradation rate restricted their widespread application. In consideration of the composition of bone, the inorganic-organic composite has a great application prospect in bone tissue engineering. Many inorganic-organic composite scaffolds were prepared by directly mixing the active ingredient, but this method is uncontrolled and will lead to lack of homogeneity in the polymer matrix. Strontium (Sr) is an admirable addition to improve the bioactivity and bone induction of hydroxyapatite (HA). To our knowledge, the application of biomimetic mineralized strontium-doped hydroxyapatite on porous poly(l-lactic acid) (Sr-HA/PLLA) scaffolds for bone defect repair has never been reported till date. Biomimetic mineralized Sr-HA/PLLA porous scaffold was developed in this study. The results indicated that the Sr-HA/PLLA porous scaffold could improve the surface hydrophobicity, reduce the acidic environment of the degradation, and enhance the osteoinductivity; moreover, the ability of protein adsorption and the modulus of compression were increased. The results also clearly showed the effectiveness of the Sr-HA/PLLA porous scaffold in promoting cell adhesion, proliferation, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. The micro computed tomography (micro-CT) results showed that more new bones were formed by Sr-HA/PLLA porous scaffold treatment. The histological results confirmed the osteoinductivity of the Sr-HA/PLLA porous scaffold. The results suggested that the Sr-HA/PLLA porous scaffold has a good application prospect in bone tissue engineering in the future.PurposeThe purpose of this study was to promote the bone repair.Materials and methodsSurgical operation of rabbits was carried out in this study.ResultsThe results showed that formation of a large number of new bones by the Sr-HA/PLLA porous scaffold treatment is possible.ConclusionBiomimetic mineralized Sr-HA/PLLA porous scaffold could effectively promote the restoration of bone defects in vivo.

Project description:The demands for applicable tissue-engineered scaffolds that can be used to repair load-bearing segmental bone defects (SBDs) is vital and in increasing demand. In this study, seven different combinations of 3 dimensional (3D) novel nanocomposite porous structured scaffolds were fabricated to rebuild SBDs using an extraordinary blend of cockle shells (CaCo3) nanoparticles (CCN), gelatin, dextran and dextrin to structure an ideal bone scaffold with adequate degradation rate using the Freeze Drying Method (FDM) and labeled as 5211, 5400, 6211, 6300, 7101, 7200 and 8100. The micron sized cockle shells powder obtained (75 µm) was made into nanoparticles using mechano-chemical, top-down method of nanoparticles synthesis with the presence of the surfactant BS-12 (dodecyl dimethyl bataine). The phase purity and crystallographic structures, the chemical functionality and the thermal characterization of the scaffolds' powder were recognized using X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometer and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) respectively. Characterizations of the scaffolds were assessed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Degradation Manner, Water Absorption Test, Swelling Test, Mechanical Test and Porosity Test. Top-down method produced cockle shell nanoparticles having averagely range 37.8±3-55.2±9 nm in size, which were determined using Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). A mainly aragonite form of calcium carbonate was identified in both XRD and FTIR for all scaffolds, while the melting (Tm) and transition (Tg) temperatures were identified using DSC with the range of Tm 62.4-75.5 °C and of Tg 230.6-232.5 °C. The newly prepared scaffolds were with the following characteristics: (i) good biocompatibility and biodegradability, (ii) appropriate surface chemistry and (iii) highly porous, with interconnected pore network. Engineering analyses showed that scaffold 5211 possessed 3D interconnected homogenous porous structure with a porosity of about 49%, pore sizes ranging from 8.97 to 337 µm, mechanical strength 20.3 MPa, Young's Modulus 271±63 MPa and enzymatic degradation rate 22.7 within 14 days.
