Kurzfassung:
Biomaterial mediated bone regeneration is an attractive strategy for bone defect treatment. Organic/inorganic composites have been well established as effective bone graft. Here, the bone regenerative effect of the composites made from tannic acid (TA) modified hydroxyapatite (HA) (THA) or TA & silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) modified HA (Ag-THA) and polyurethane (PU) was evaluated on critical-sized calvarial defects in rats. The in vivo study indicates that PU/THA and PU/Ag-THA scaffolds exhibited acceptable biocompatibility and induced significantly enhanced bone mineral densities comparing with the blank control (CON) group as well as PU/HA group. The inclusion of TA on HA brought the composites with enhanced osteogenesis and angiogenesis, evidenced by osteocalcin (OCN) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) immunohistochemical staining. Tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining showed high osteoclast activity along with osteogenesis, especially in PU/THA and PU/Ag-THA groups. However, further introduction of Ag NPs on HA depressed the angiogenesis of the composites, leading to even lower VEGF expression than that of CON group. This study once more proved that THA can serve as a better bone composite component that pure HA and can promote osteogenesis and angiogenesis. While, the introduction of antimicrobial Ag NPs on HA need to be controlled in some extent not to affect the angiogenesis of the composites.
