High-performance bioceramics are required for preventing failure and prolonging the life-time of bone grafting scaffolds and osseous implants. The proper identification and development of materials with extended functionalities addressing socio-economic needs and health problems constitute important and critical steps at the heart of clinical research. Recent findings in the realm of ion-substituted hydroxyapatite (HA) could pave the road towards significant developments in biomedicine, with an emphasis on a new generation of orthopaedic and dentistry applications, since such bioceramics are able to mimic the structural, compositional and mechanical properties of the bone mineral phase. In fact, the fascinating ability of the HA crystalline lattice to allow for the substitution of calcium ions with a plethora of cationic species has been widely explored in the recent period, with consequent modifications of its physical and chemical features, as well as its functional mechanical and in vitro and in vivo biological performance. A comprehensive inventory of the progresses achieved so far is both opportune and of paramount importance, in order to not only gather and summarize information, but to also allow fellow researchers to compare with ease and filter the best solutions for the cation substitution of HA-based materials and enable the development of multi-functional biomedical designs. The review surveys preparation and synthesis methods, pinpoints all the explored cation dopants, and discloses the full application range of substituted HA. Special attention is dedicated to the antimicrobial efficiency spectrum and cytotoxic trade-off concentration values for various cell lines, highlighting new prophylactic routes for the prevention of implant failure. Importantly, the current in vitro biological tests (widely employed to unveil the biological performance of HA-based materials), and their ability to mimic the in vivo biological interactions, are also critically assessed. Future perspectives are discussed, and a series of recommendations are underlined.

Background: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibited the adjustable aperture, high load capacities, tailorable structures, and excellent biocompatibilities that have used to be as drug delivery carries in cancer therapy. Until now, Zr-MOFs in particular combine optimal stability towards hydrolysis and postsynthetic modification with low toxicity, and are widely studied for its excellent biological performance. Introduction: This review comprises the exploration of Zr-MOFs as drug delivery devices (DDSs) with focus on various new methods, including chemotherapy (CT), photodynamic therapy (PDT), photothermal therapy (PTT), sonodynamic therapy(SDT), radiotherapy, immunotherapy, gene therapy and related combined therapies, which all generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) to achieve the high efficiency of tumor therapy. Conclusion: We described and summarized these pertinent examples of the therapeutic mechanisms and highlight the antitumor effects of their biological application both in vitro and in vivo. The perspectives on their future applications and analogous challenge of the Zr-MOFs materials are given.

The Impact

ABSTRACTBiomolecules have been traditionally immobilised onto surfaces using wet chemical techniques for various medical applications. Recent decades have seen plasma methods being used to prepare these surfaces through various forms of surface modification, but the direct exposure of biomolecules to plasma has been avoided due to fears that the molecules would be denatured by the energetic plasma species. Recent results are now demonstrating that direct plasma deposition of biomolecule coatings can be achieved. This creates the possibility to directly modify the surface of implants without any form of surface pre-treatment and this opens up the possibility to alter the healing processes. Materials such as collagen, chitosan, catalase and heparin can be effectively deposited onto surfaces with minimal impact on biological performance and without any chemical binders, linkers or impurities. The performance of these materials has been characterised using both in vitro and in vivo methodologies. In a further step, the results of a preclinical trial are presented which reveal that direct deposition of biomolecules onto open wounds can also be achieved and the impact of this on wound healing is measured in an immunocompromised animal model. A non-thermal plasma device was used to deliver collagen on to chronic wounds and the treatment was shown to promote wound closure in a rabbit wound healing model.

Abstract The biomaterials composed of mammalian extracellular matrix (ECM) have a great potential in pelvic floor tissue repair and functional reconstruction. However, bacterial infection does cause great damage to the repair function of biomaterials which is the major problem in clinical utilization. Therefore, the development of biological materials with antimicrobial effect is of great clinical significance for pelvic floor repair. Chitosan/tigecycline (CS/TGC) antibacterial biofilm was prepared by coating CS/TGC nanoparticles on mammalian-derived ECM. Infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, bacteriostasis circle assay and static dialysis methods were used to characterize the membrane. MTS assay kit and DAPI fluorescence staining were used to evaluate cytotoxicity and cell adhesion. The biocompatibility was assessed by subabdominal implantation model in goats. Subcutaneous antimicrobial test in rabbit back was used to evaluate the antimicrobial and repairing effects on the infected wounds in vivo. Infrared spectroscopy showed that the composite coating had been successfully modified. The antibacterial membrane retained the main structure of ECM multilayer fibers. In vitro release of biomaterials showed sustained release and stability. In vivo studies showed that the antibacterial biological membrane had low cytotoxicity, fast degradation, good compatibility, anti-infection and excellent repair ability.
