The Impact

Calcium phosphate has been the point of interest for in vitro gene delivery for many years because of its biocompatibility and straight forward application. However, there are some limitations regarding in vivo administration of these particles mostly because of vast agglomeration of the particles and lack of strong bond between the particles and pDNA. We introduced a simple single step method to functionalize calcium phosphate nanoparticles with Aminosilanes having a different number of amine groups. The nanoparticles were characterized chemically and structurally and their toxicity and interaction with pDNA were studied as well. Results revealed that different crystalline phase of calcium phosphate nanoparticles (Brushite and Hydroxyapatite) with a size below 150 nm were prepared, depending on conditions of synthesis and phase, each with a narrow size distribution. The aminosilane agents caused oriented nucleation and growth of crystallites and can decrease the pH for producing hydroxyapatite phase. The phenomenon could be revealed with the presence of anisotropy in the structure of synthesized hydroxyapatite. The number of amine groups in the Aminosilane agent could change the phase transition pH. Brushite particles revealed to have stronger interaction with pDNA mostly because of their higher positive surface charge. Both particles showed blood compatibility and negligible toxicity. Transfection experiment revealed the capability of both brushite and hydroxyapatite particles to transfect A549 and HEK293 cells. The new modified nanoparticles can be stored in a dried state and re-dispersed easily at the time of administration. Moreover, the transfection efficiency is higher in comparison with conventional calcium phosphate. This study showed the impact of presence and type of the modifying agent on the crystal structure and the amount of surface functionalization of nanoparticles, which in consequence influenced their interaction with cells.

Coating Films

Calcium phosphate coating films were fabricated on Ti-6Al-4V plates and screw-type implants with a blast-treated surface using radiofrequency (RF) magnetron sputtering and were evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) and oxyapatite (OAp) films obtained in this study could cover the blast-treated substrate very efficiently, maintaining the surface roughness. For the in vitro evaluations of the calcium phosphate coating films, bonding strength and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity were examined. The bonding strength of the coating films to a blast-treated substrate exceeded 60 MPa, independent of film phases except for the film after post-heat-treatment in silica ampoule. When compared with an uncoated substrate, the increase in the ALP activity of osteoblastic SaOS-2 cells on a calcium phosphate coated substrate was confirmed by a cell culture test. The removal torque of screw-type Ti-6Al-4V implants with a blast-treated surface from the femur of Japanese white rabbit increased with the duration of implantation and it was statistically improved by coating an ACP film 2 weeks after implantation. The in vitro and in vivo studies suggested that the application of the sputtered ACP film as a coating on titanium implants was effective in improving their biocompatibility with bones.

Background: The purpose of this preliminary study was to assess the in vivo performance of synthetic, cotton wool-like nanocomposites consisting of a biodegradable poly(lactide-co-glycolide) fibrous matrix and containing either calcium phosphate nanoparticles (PLGA/CaP 60:40) or silver doped CaP nanoparticles (PLGA/Ag-CaP 60:40). Besides its extraordinary in vitro bioactivity the latter biomaterial (0.4 wt% total silver concentration) provides additional antimicrobial properties for treating bone defects exposed to microorganisms. Materials and Methods: Both flexible artificial bone substitutes were implanted into totally 16 epiphyseal and metaphyseal drill hole defects of long bone in sheep and followed for 8 weeks. Histological and histomorphological analyses were conducted to evaluate the biocompatibility and bone formation applying a score system. The influence of silver on the in vivo performance was further investigated. Results: Semi-quantitative evaluation of histology sections showed for both implant materials an excellent biocompatibility and bone healing with no resorption in the adjacent bone. No signs of inflammation were detectable, either macroscopically or microscopically, as was evident in 5 µm plastic sections by the minimal amount of inflammatory cells. The fibrous biomaterials enabled bone formation directly in the centre of the former defect. The area fraction of new bone formation as determined histomorphometrically after 8 weeks implantation was very similar with 20.5 ± 11.2 % and 22.5 ± 9.2 % for PLGA/CaP and PLGA/Ag-CaP, respectively. Conclusions: The cotton wool-like bone substitute material is easily applicable, biocompatible and might be beneficial in minimal invasive surgery for treating bone defects.
