Osseointegration between implants and bone tissue lays the foundation for the long-term stability of implants. The incorporation of a porous structure and local slow release of siRNA to silence casein kinase-2 interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1), a downregulator of bone formation, is expected to promote osseointegration. Here, porous implants with a porous outer layer and dense inner core were prepared by metal coinjection molding (MIM). Mg-doped calcium phosphate nanoparticles (CaPNPs)-grafted arginine-glycine-aspartate cell adhesion sequence (RGD) and transcribed activator (TAT) (MCPRT)/CKIP-1 siRNA complex and polylysine (PLL) were coated onto the surface of the porous implants by layer-by-layer (LBL) self-deposition. The in vitro results showed that the MCPRT-siRNA coating promoted MG63 cell adhesion and proliferation, enhanced the protein expressions (ALP and OC) and bone formation-related gene expression (OPN, OC and COL-1α) in vitro. The in vivo results demonstrated that the porous structure enhanced bone ingrowth and that the local slow release of MCPRT-siRNA accelerated new bone formation at the early stage. The porous structure coupled with local CKIP-1 siRNA delivery constitutes a promising approach to achieve faster and stronger osseointegration for dental implants.
The fracture healing outcome is largely dependent on the quantities as well as osteogenic differentiation capacities of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) at the lesion site. Herein, macrophage membrane (MM)-reversibly cloaked nanocomplexes (NCs) are engineered for the lesion-targeted and hierarchical co-delivery of short stromal derived factor-1α peptide (sSDF-1α) and Ckip-1 small interfering RNA (Ckip-1 siRNA, siCkip-1) to promote bone repair by concurrently fostering recruitment and osteogenic differentiation of endogenous MSCs. To construct the NCs, a membrane-penetrating α-helical polypeptide first assembles with siCkip-1, and the cationic NCs are sequentially coated with catalase and an outer shell of sSDF-1α-anchored MM. Due to MM-assisted inflammation homing, intravenously injected NCs could efficiently accumulate at the fractured femur, where catalase decomposes the local hydrogen peroxide to generate oxygen bubbles that drives the shedding of sSDF-1α-anchored MM in the extracellular compartment. The exposed, cationic inner core thus enables robust trans-membrane delivery into MSCs to induce Ckip-1 silencing. Consequently, sSDF-1α-guided MSCs recruitment cooperates with siCkip-1-mediated osteogenic differentiation to facilitate bone formation and accelerate bone fracture healing. This study provides an enlightened strategy for the hierarchical co-delivery of macromolecular drugs into different cellular compartments, and it also renders a promising modality for the management of fracture healing.

RNA interference (RNAi)-based gene therapy that promotes anabolic bone formation is an effective approach for addressing osteoporosis. However, the selection of target gene and tissue-specific delivery systems has hindered the progression of this strategy. In this study, we identified casein kinase-2 interacting protein-1 encoding gene ( Ckip-1 ), a negative regulator of bone formation, as an effective target of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) for improving bone mass. Moreover, an impressive (DSS) 6 -Liposome (Lipos) nanoparticle system that could target the bone formation surface was synthesized to enhance the delivery of Ckip-1 siRNA to osteogenic lineage cells. The in vitro results confirmed that the (DSS) 6 -Lipos system could efficaciously improve the intracellular delivery of Ckip-1 siRNA without obvious cell toxicity. The in vivo application of the delivery system showed specific accumulation of siRNA in osteogenic cells located around the bone formation surface. Bone-related analysis indicated increased bone mass and improved bone microarchitecture in mice with ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis. Moreover, the biomechanical characteristics of the tibia were enhanced significantly, indicating increased resistance to fragile fracture induced by osteoporosis. Thus, (DSS) 6 -Lipos- Ckip-1 siRNA-based osteoanabolic therapy may be a promising option for the treatment of osteoporosis.
