After an osteosarcoma excision, recurrence and bone defects are significant challenges for clinicians. In this study, the curcumin (Cur) loaded chitosan (CS) nanoparticles (CCNP) encapsulated silk fibroin (SF)/hyaluronic acid esterified by methacrylate (HAMA) (CCNPs-SF/HAMA) hydrogel for the osteosarcoma therapy and bone regeneration was developed by photocuring and ethanol treatment. The micro or nanofibers networks were observed in the CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel. The FTIR results demonstrated that alcohol vapor treatment caused an increase in β-sheets of SF, resulting in the high compression stress and Young’s modulus of CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel. According to the water uptake analysis, SF caused a slight decrease in water uptake of CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel while CCNPs could enhance the water uptake of it. The swelling kinetic results showed that both the CCNPs and the SF increased the swelling ratio of CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel. The accumulative release profile of CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel showed that the release of Cur from CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel was accelerated when pH value was decreased from 7.4 to 5.5. Besides, compared with CCNPs, the CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel had a more sustainable drug release, which was beneficial for the long-term treatment of osteosarcoma. In vitro assay results indicated that CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel with equivalent Cur concentration of 150 μg/mL possessed both the effect of anti-cancer and promoting the proliferation of osteoblasts. These results suggest that CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel with superior physical properties and the bifunctional osteosarcoma therapy and bone repair may be an excellent candidate for local cancer therapy and bone regeneration.Keywords:curcumin;hyaluronic acid;silk fibroin;chitosan nanoparticle;MG-63 cells;MC3T3-E1 cells

Introduction Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignancy of the bone. The existing adjuvant chemotherapy regimens, while improving the overall survival, have been limited by the significant systemic toxicity. Substantial clinical and research efforts are being invested to develop novel pharmaceutical agents. Resveratrol (Res) has been suggested to have a chemopreventive effect. However, the mechanism of Res in osteosarcoma remains to be elucidated. Material and methods The MG-63 osteosarcoma cell culture model was used to investigate the chemotherapeutic effect of Res. MTT assay, wound healing assay, and Transwell migration assay were used to document the effect of Res on cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, respectively. Apoptosis in MG-63 cells was quantified with the TUNEL assay. Western blotting analysis was used to examine the molecular changes following Res treatment. Data processing and analysis were conducted using GraphPad Prism 5.0. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Our data suggested that Res blocks cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and activates apoptotic cell death in osteosarcoma MG-63 cells. We found that Res potentially down-regulates nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and Akt intracellular signaling transduction. Moreover, the combination of Res and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), an NF-κB inhibitor, resulted in synergistic growth inhibition of osteosarcoma. Conclusions Our in vitro preclinical study in the MG-63 cell line model supports the translation of Res to the clinical management of patients with osteosarcoma.

Graphene quantum dots surface passivated by polyethylenimine (GQDs-PEI) were prepared with a simple solvothermal method. Compared with the unfunctionalized graphene quantum dots (GQDs), the GQDs-PEI were well dispersed with an ultrasmall average diameter of ca. 1.66 nm, and have achieved better optical properties including high quantum yield (53.0%) and narrow emission spectral features which is probably because of the positively charged amines on PEI which facilitated the dispersion of GQDs. By being applied to the bioimaging of MG-63 cells, the GQDs-PEI showed brighter luminescence and minor cytotoxicity. Moreover, the GQDs-PEI are clearly rendered in the nucleus region, which offered a further application in the diagnosis of diseased phenotypes and the targeted therapy of tumour cells.

To be better used as implant materials in bone graft substitutes, bioactivity and osteogenesis of nano-hydroxyapatite (nano-HA) need to be further enhanced. Inspired by adhesive proteins in mussels, here we developed a novel bone forming peptide decorated nano-HA material. In this study, nano-HA was coated by one-step pH-induced polymerization of dopamine, and then the peptide was grafted onto polydopamine (pDA) coated nano-HA (HA-pDA) through catechol chemistry. Our results demonstrated that the peptide-conjugated nano-HA crystals could induce the adhesion and proliferation of MG-63 cells. Moreover, the highly alkaline phosphatase activity of the functionalized nano-HA indicated that the grafted peptide could maintain its biological activity after immobilization onto the surface of HA-pDA, especially at the concentration of 100 μg/mL. These modified nano-HA crystals with better bioactivity and osteogenic differentiation hold great potential to be applied as bioactive materials in bone repairing, bone regeneration and bio-implant coating applications.

Osteosarcoma (OS) is one of the most common primary bone sarcoma with high malignant degree and poor prognosis, for which there is an urgent need to develop novel therapeutic approaches. Recent research has revealed that mifamurtide significantly improved the outcome of OS patients when combined with adjuvant chemotherapy drugs including cisplatin (DDP). The present study aimed to construct a drug delivery system co-loading DDP and mifamurtide. Long-circulating targeted liposomes co-loading DDP and mifamurtide were constructed with Soy lecithin (SPC), cholesterol (Chol) and 1,2-distearoylglycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-n-[poly(ethyleneglycol)] (DSPE-PEG), modified with MMP14 targeting peptide BCY-B in the surface of liposomes. In addition to characterization, the cellular uptake, endocytosis pathway and inhibition on cell viability, migration, invasion and cell apoptosis of MG-63 cells were explored. The constructed liposomal delivery possessed the basic characteristics of liposomes and showed high affinity to MG-63 cells, resulting in high uptake efficiency in MG-63 cells. The endocytosis might be involved in multiple pathways including caveolae-mediated endocytosis, clathrin-mediated endocytosis and macropinocytosis, dependently on energy. The constructed long-circulating targeted liposomes co-loading DDP and mifamurtide significantly inhibited the cell viability, migration, invasion and cell apoptosis of MG-63 cells, improving the antitumor effect of DDP and mifamurtide in vitro . The constructed liposomal delivery system is suitable for co-loading DDP and mifamurtide to achieve active tumor targeting, supplying a new strategy for the treatment of OS. Graphical Abstract

Due to its similar elastic modulus of human bones, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has been considered as an excellent cytocompatible material. However, the bioinertness, poor osteoconduction, and weak antibacterial activity of PEEK limit its wide applications in clinics. In this study, a facile strategy is developed to prepare graphene oxide (GO) modified sulfonated polyetheretherketone (SPEEK) (GO-SPEEK) through a simple dip-coating method. After detailed characterization, it is found that the GO closely deposits on the surface of PEEK, which is attributed to the π–π stacking interaction between PEEK and GO. Antibacterial tests reveal that the GO-SPEEK exhibits excellent suppression toward Escherichia coli . In vitro cell attachment, growth, differentiation, alkaline phosphatase activity, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analyses, and calcium mineral deposition all illustrate that the GO-SPEEK substrate can significantly accelerate the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of osteoblast-like MG-63 cells compared with those on PEEK and SPEEK groups. These results suggest that the GO-SPEEK has an improved antibacterial activity and cytocompatibility in vitro, showing that the developed GO-SPEEK has a great potential as the bioactive implant material in bone tissue engineering.

Implantable polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has great biomedical potential as hard tissue substitute in orthopedic application due to its outstanding mechanical properties and excellent biological stability. However, the poor osseointegration and bacteriostatic ability of implantable PEEK become the major barrier for its wide clinic application. In this study, a hierarchically micro/nano-topographic PEEK with specific functional groups (amino and COOH/COOR) has been fabricated using facile sulfonation combined with argon plasma treatment. The new developed hierarchically micro/nano-topographic PEEK have enhanced hydrophilicity, surface roughness, as well as the high ability of apatite-layer forming. Antibacterial assessment shows that as-treated samples exhibit better antibacterial activity. The cellular responses in osteoblast-like MG-63 cells culturing experiment reveal that the micro/nano-topography accompanied with specific functional groups improves the cell adhesion at the initial stage, further ameliorates proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of MG-63. This study proposes a promising approach to increase osteo-differentiation activity and bacteriostasis of PEEK via synergistic effects involving surface topologic structure and chemical modification, which shows great potential in developing advanced implantable materials.

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by alveolar bone loss , which affects the integrity of the tissue supporting the teeth. Previous studies have shown that reactive oxygen species (ROS) can promote the secretion of inflammatory factors and cause alveolar bone inflammatory reactions and bone resorption. Therefore, scavenging ROS is important for reducing the expression of inflammatory factors and improving the inflammatory environment of alveolar bone tissue. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is one of the most effective antioxidant enzymes for eliminating ROS, which can protect cells from ROS toxicity and reduce the level of intracellular oxidative stress and inflammation. However, SOD molecules have shortcomings, such as short half-life and insufficient stability, which limit the application of SOD in inhibiting periodontal bone resorption. The use of carrier zeolitic imidazolate framework-90 (ZIF-90) with ATP-responsiveness and good biocompatibility can protect SOD molecules, improve SOD stability, and achieve intracellular SOD delivery. Therefore, we fixed SOD into ZIF-90 using the co-precipitation method to prepare ATP-responsive [email protected] and designed a study to investigate the ability of ATP-responsive [email protected] to reduce the inflammatory response of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated human osteoblast MG-63. In our study, the ATP-responsive assembly efficiently suppressed the levels of ROS and pro-inflammatory cytokines, showing great potential to ameliorate the levels of oxidative stress, reduce inflammation, and increase osteoblast activity. This provides a novel idea for the application of SOD in alveolar bone resorption.

Osteoporosis, a prevalent chronic health issue among the elderly, is a global bone metabolic disease. Flavonoids, natural active compounds widely present in vegetables, fruits, beans, and cereals, have been reported for their anti-osteoporotic properties. Onion is a commonly consumed vegetable rich in flavonoids with diverse pharmacological activities. In this study, the trabecular structure was enhanced and bone mineral density (BMD) exhibited a twofold increase following oral administration of onion flavonoid extract (OFE). The levels of estradiol (E2), calcium (Ca), and phosphorus (P) in serum were significantly increased in ovariectomized (OVX) rats, with effects equal to alendronate sodium (ALN). Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) levels in rat serum were reduced by 35.7% and 36.9%, respectively, compared to the OVX group. In addition, the effects of OFE on bone health were assessed using human osteoblast-like cells MG-63 and osteoclast precursor RAW 264.7 cells in vitro as well. Proliferation and mineralization of MG-63 cells were promoted by OFE treatment, along with increased ALP activity and mRNA expression of osteoprotegerin (OPG)/receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappaB ligand (RANKL). Additionally, RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and osteoclast activity were inhibited by OFE treatment through decreased TRAP activity and down-regulation of mRNA expression-related enzymes in RAW 264.7 cells. Overall findings suggest that OFE holds promise as a natural functional component for alleviating osteoporosis.
