Bone regeneration is a clinical challenge that requires multiple approaches. Sometimes, it also includes the development of new osteogenic and antibacterial biomaterials to treat the occurrence of possible infection processes derived from surgery. This study evaluates the antibacterial properties of meso-macroporous scaffolds coated with gelatin and based on a bioactive glass and after being doped with 4% ZnO (4ZN-GE) and loaded with saturated and minimally inhibitory concentrations of one of the antibiotics levofloxacin (LEVO), vancomycin (VANCO), rifampicin (RIFAM) or gentamicin (GENTA). After the physicochemical characterization of the materials, inorganic ion and antibiotic release studies were performed from the scaffolds. In addition, molecular modeling allowed the determination of electrostatic potential density maps and hydrogen bonds of the antibiotics and the glass matrix. In vitro antibacterial studies (in plankton, inhibition halos and biofilm destruction) with S. aureus and E. coli as model bacteria showed a synergistic effect of zinc ions and antibiotics. The effect was especially noticeable in planktonic cultures of S. aureus with 4ZN-GE scaffolds loaded with VANCO, LEVO or RIFAM and in cultures of E. coli with LEVO or GENTA. Furthermore, S. aureus biofilms were completely destroyed by 4ZN-GE scaffolds loaded with VANCO, LEVO or RIFAM and total destruction of E. coli biofilm was achieved with 4ZN-GE scaffolds loaded with GENTA or LEVO. This approach could be an important step in the fight against microbial resistance and provide much needed options for the treatment of bone infection.

Macroporous scaffolds made of a SiO2-CaO-P2O5 mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) and epolycaprolactone (PCL) have been prepared by robocasting. These scaffolds showed an excellent in vitro biocompatibility in contact with osteoblast like cells (Saos 2)
and osteoclasts derived from RAW 264.7 macrophages. In vivo studies were carried out by implantation into cavitary defects drilled in osteoporotic sheep. The scaffolds evidenced excellent bone regeneration properties, promoting new bone formation at both the peripheral and the inner parts of the scaffolds, thick trabeculae, high vascularization and high presence of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. In order to evaluate the effects of the local release of an antiosteoporotic drug, 1% (%wt) of zoledronic acid was incorporated to the scaffolds. The scaffolds loaded with zoledronic acid induced apoptosis in Saos 2 cells, impeded osteoclast differentiation in a time dependent manner and inhibited bone healing, promoting an intense inflammatory response in osteoporotic sheep.
Mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs) in the system SiO2-CaO-P2O5-Ga2O3 have been synthesized by the evaporation induced self-assembly method and subsequent impregnation with Ga cations. Two different compositions have been prepared and the local envir
onment of Ga(III) has been characterized using 29Si, 71Ga and 31P NMR analysis, demonstrating that Ga(III) is efficiently incorporated as both, network former (GaO4 units) and network modifier (GaO6 units). In vitro bioactivity tests evidenced that Ga-containing MBGs retain their capability for nucleation and growth of an apatite-like layer in contact with a simulated body fluid with ion concentrations nearly equal to those of human blood plasma. Finally, in vitro cell culture tests evidenced that Ga incorporation results in a selective effect on osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Indeed, the presence of this element enhances the early differentiation towards osteoblast phenotype while disturbing osteoclastogenesis. Considering these results, Ga-doped MBGs might be proposed as bone substitutes, especially in osteoporosis scenarios.
There is an urgent need of biosynthetic bone grafts with enhanced osteogenic capacity. In this study, we describe the design of hierarchical meso-macroporous 3D-scaffolds based on mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs), enriched with the peptide osteost
atin and Zn2+ ions, and their osteogenic effect on human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) as a preclinical strategy in bone regeneration. By using additive fabrication techniques, scaffolds exhibiting hierarchical porosity: mesopores , macropores and big channels, were prepared. These MBG scaffolds with or without osteostatin were evaluated in cell cultures of hMSCs. Zinc promoted hMSCs colonization (both the surface and inside) of MBG scaffolds. Moreover, Zn2+ ions and osteostatin together, but not independently, in the scaffolds were found to induce the osteoblast differentiation genes runt related transcription factor-2 (RUNX2) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in hMSCs after 7 d of culture in the absence of an osteogenic differentiation-promoting medium. These results add credence to the combined use of zinc and osteostatin as an effective strategy for bone regeneration applications.
A very small number of biomaterials investigated for bone regeneration was reported as able to prevent the oxidative stress. In this study beads based on alginate hydrogel and mesoporous glasses (MG) containing different amounts of cerium oxides (Ce3
+/Ce4+) exhibiting antioxidant properties were investigated as a good approach to mimic the action of antioxidant enzymes in our organism. The effect of cerium contents on the bioactivity and biocompatibility of beads were investigated. Moreover, the potential capability of Ce-containing MG to prevent the oxidative stress caused by the activity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was here investigated for the first time. The increment of cerium oxide from 1.2, to 3.6 and 5.3 mol-% decreases the surface area and porosity of MG and increases the catalase mimetic activity after 168 h. Swelling tests in different cell culture media (D- and {alpha}-MEM) demonstrated the rehydration capability of beads. The presence of beads with the highest Ce-contents (3.6 and 5.3 %) improved the proliferation of pre-osteoblastic cells MC3T3-C1 cells. However, the cell differentiation decreased when increased the cerium content. Lactate dehydrogenase assays showed beads are cytocompatible materials. Moreover, oxidative stress tests with H2O2 showed a better response related to cell viability and the elimination of oxidant species when increased cerium content. Beads of glasses with 1.2 and 3.6 % of CeO2 are excellent candidates as bioactive scaffolds for bone regeneration capable of counteract the oxidative stress.
Antimicrobial biomaterials are critical to aid in the regeneration of oral soft tissue and prevent or treat localised bacterial infections. With the rising trend in antibiotic resistance, there is a pressing clinical need for new antimicrobial chemis
tries and biomaterial design approaches enabling on-demand activation of antibiotic-free antimicrobial functionality following an infection that are environment-friendly, flexible and commercially-viable. This study explores the feasibility of integrating a bioresorbable electrospun polymer scaffold with localised antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) capability. To enable aPDT, we encapsulated a photosensitiser (PS) in polyester fibres in the PS inert state, so that the antibacterial function would be activated on-demand via a visible light source. Fibrous scaffolds were successfully electrospun from FDA-approved polyesters, either poly(epsilon-caprolactone (PCL) or poly[(rac-lactide)-co-glycolide] (PLGA) with encapsulated PS (either methylene blue (MB) or erythrosin B (ER)). The electrospun fibres achieved an ~100 wt.% loading efficiency of PS, which significantly increased their tensile modulus and reduced their average fibre diameter and pore size with respect to PS-free controls. In vitro, PS release varied between a burst release profile to limited release within 100 hours depending on the selected scaffold formulation. Exposure of PS-encapsulated PCL fibres to visible light successfully led to at least a 1 log reduction in E. coli viability after 60 minutes of light exposure whereas PS-free electrospun controls did not inactive microbes. This study successfully demonstrates the significant potential of PS-encapsulated electrospun fibres as photodynamically active biomaterial for antibiotic-free infection control.
