Toward Smart Biomimetic Apatite-Based Bone Scaffolds with Spatially Controlled Ion Substitutions.

ABSTRACT: Biomimetic apatites exhibit a high reactivity allowing ion substitutions to modulate their in vivo response. We developed a novel approach combining several bioactive ions in a spatially controlled way in view of subsequent releases to address the sequence of events occurring after implantation, including potential microorganisms' colonization. Innovative micron-sized core-shell particles were designed with an external shell enriched with an antibacterial ion and an internal core substituted with a pro-angiogenic or osteogenic ion. After developing the proof of concept, two ions were particularly considered, Ag⁺ in the outer shell and Cu²⁺ in the inner core. In vitro evaluations confirmed the cytocompatibility through Ag-/Cu-substituting and the antibacterial properties provided by Ag⁺. Then, these multifunctional "smart" particles were embedded in a polymeric matrix by freeze-casting to prepare 3D porous scaffolds for bone engineering. This approach envisions the development of a new generation of scaffolds with tailored sequential properties for optimal bone regeneration.

Project description:Interfaces between soft tissue and bone are characterized by transitional gradients in composition and structure that mediate substantial changes in mechanical properties. For interfacial tissue engineering, scaffolds with mineral gradients have shown promise in controlling osteogenic behavior of seeded bone marrow stromal cells (bMSCs). Previously, we have demonstrated a 'top-down' method for creating monolithic bone-derived scaffolds with patterned mineral distributions similar to native tissue. In the present work, we evaluated the ability of these scaffolds to pattern osteogenic behavior in bMSCs in basic, osteogenic, and chondrogenic biochemical environments. Immunohistochemical (IHC) and histological stains were used to characterize cellular behavior as a function of local mineral content. Alkaline phosphatase, an early marker of osteogenesis, and osteocalcin, a late marker of osteogenesis, were positively correlated with mineral content in basic, osteogenic, and chondrogenic media. The difference in bMSC behavior between the mineralized and demineralized regions was most pronounced in an basic biochemical environment. In the mineralized regions of the scaffold, osteogenic markers were clearly present as early as 4 days in culture. In osteogenic media, osteogenic behavior was observed across the entire scaffold, whereas in chondrogenic media, there was an overall reduction in osteogenic biomarkers. Overall, these results indicate local mineral content of the scaffold plays a key role in spatially patterning bMSC behavior. Our results can be utilized for the development of interfacial tissue engineered scaffolds and understanding the role of local environment in determining bMSC behavior. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Soft tissue-to-bone interfaces, such as tendon-bone, ligament-bone, and cartilage-bone, are ubiquitous in mammalian musculoskeletal systems. These interfacial tissues have distinct, hierarchically-structured gradients of cellular, biochemical, and materials components. Given the complexity of the biological structures, interfacial tissues present unique challenges for tissue engineering. Here, we demonstrate that material-derived cues can spatially pattern osteogenic behavior in bone marrow stromal cells (bMSCs). Specifically, we observed that when the bMSCs are cultured on bone-derived scaffolds with mineral gradients, cells in contact with higher mineral content display osteogenic behavior at earlier times than those on the unmineralized substrate. The ability to pattern the cellular complexity found in native interfaces while maintaining biologically relevant structures is a key step towards creating engineered tissue interfaces.
