Zelluläre Resorption 3D-gedruckter Knochenimplantate auf Basis von Calciummagnesiumphosphaten
(2023)
Für die Behandlung von Knochendefekten kritischer Größe gibt es heute eine Reihe von Therapiemöglichkeiten. Neuartige Ansätze mit Magnesiumphosphat- (MPC) und Calciummagnesiumphosphatzementen (CMPC) haben sich als echte Alternativen zu den etablierten Calciumphosphaten erwiesen.
Ziel war es, die Osteoklastogenese in vitro auf 3D-pulvergedrucktem CMPC und MPC zu induzieren und die zelluläre Resorption (zR) zu analysieren. Polystyrol (PS), Glas, β-TCP und Brushit-bildender Zement dienten als Referenzen.
Als Proben wurden Zemente der allgemeinen stöchiometrischen Summenformel CaxMg(3–x)(PO4)2 (x = 0; 0,25; 0,75; 3) verwendet, die Struvit oder Newberyit enthielten. Für die Osteoklastogenese wurden monozytenangereicherte PBMCs aus Buffy-Coat mittels dreifacher Dichtegradientenzentrifugation isoliert, auf die Prüfoberflächen ausgesät und über einen Zeitraum von 22 Tagen mit Zytokinen (M-CSF und RANKL) stimuliert. Die Interaktion der Zellen mit den Zementen bzw. PS/Glas wurde mittels TRAP-Färbung und -Aktivität, DNA- und Ionenkonzentrationen (Ca2+, Mg2+, PO43–, pH-Wert), Rasterelektronen-, Durchlicht-, Auflicht- und Fluoreszenzmikroskopie analysiert.
Auf den Struvit- und Newberyit-bildenden Zementen konnten keine für Osteoklasten typischen Riesenzellen nachgewiesen werden. Auf den Struvit-bildenden Zementen wurde deutlich mehr mononukleäre Zellen nachgewiesen wurden als auf den Newberyit-bildenden Zementen. Während die Freisetzung von Mg2+ und PO43– ausschließlich durch die chemische Degradation erfolgte, wurde Ca2+ zunächst adsorbiert und anschließend durch zR freigesetzt. Die erhöhte Ca2+-Adsorption im Vergleich zur Ca2+-Resorption führte insgesamt zu einer Calcium-Präzipitation.
Da lediglich auf β-TCP Resorptionslakunen beobachtet wurden, wird angenommen, dass auf den CMPC, MPC und Brushite-bildenden Zementen die zellvermittelte Ca2+-Freisetzung von den Präzipitaten ausging, die von Makrophagen auf den Zementen und/oder Riesenzellen auf den Wellplatten resorbiert wurden.
Mineral biocements are brittle materials, which usually results in catastrophic failure during mechanical loading. Here, previous works demonstrated the feasibility of reducing brittleness by a dual-setting approach, in which a silica sol was simultaneously gelled during the setting of a brushite forming cement. The current thesis aimed at further improving this concept by both using a novel silicate based cement matrix for an enhanced bonding between cement and silica matrix as well as multifunctional silica precursors to increase the network density of the gel. Due to its well-known biocompatibility and osteogenic regeneration capacity, baghdadite was chosen as mineral component of such composites. This required in a first approach the conversion of baghdadite ceramics into self-setting cement formulations. This was investigated initially by using baghdadite as reactive filler in a brushite forming cement (Chapter 4). Here, the ß-TCP component in a equimolar mixture of ß-TCP and acidic monocalcium phosphate anhydrous was subsequently replaced by baghdadite at various concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 50, and 100 wt%) to study the influence on physicochemical cement properties such as mechanical performance, radiopacity, phase composition and microstructure. X-ray diffraction profiles demonstrated the dissolution of baghdadite during the cement reaction without affecting the crystal structure of the precipitated brushite phase. In addition, EDX analysis showed that calcium is homogeneously distributed in the cement matrix, while zirconium and silicon form cluster-like aggregates ranging in size from a few micrometers to more than 50 µm. X-ray images and µ-CT analyses indicate improved X-ray visibility with increased incorporation of baghdadite in brushite cement, with an aluminum equivalent thickness nearly doubling at a baghdadite content of 50 wt%. At the same time, the compressive strength of brushite cement increased from 12.9 ± 3.1 MPa to 21.1 ± 4.1 MPa at a baghdadite content of 10 wt%. Cell culture medium conditioned with powdered brushite cement approached physiological pH values when increasing amounts of baghdadite were added to the cement (pH = 6.47 for pure brushite, pH = 7.02 for brushite with 20 wt% baghdadite substitution). Baghdadite substitution also affected the ion content in the culture medium and thus the proliferation activity of primary human osteoblasts in vitro. The results demonstrated for the first time the suitability of baghdadite as a reactive cement additive for improving the radiopacity, mechanical performance, and cytocompatibility of brushite cements.
A second approach (Chapter 5) aimed to produce single component baghdadite cements by an increase of baghdadite solubility to initiate a self-setting cement reaction. For this, the material was mechanically activated by longer grinding times of up to 24h leading to both a decrease in particle and crystallite size as well as a partial amorphization of baghdadite. Baghdadite cements were formed by adding water at a powder to liquid ratio of 2.0 g/ml. Maximum compressive strengths were determined to be ~2 MPa after 3 days of setting for a 24-hour ground material. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) measurements showed an incongruent dissolution profile of the set cements, with preferential dissolution of calcium and only minor release of zirconium ions. Cement formation occurs under alkaline conditions, with the unground raw powder resulting in a pH of 11.9 during setting, while prolonged grinding increases the pH to about 12.3.
Finally, mechanically activated baghdadite cements were combined with inorganic silica networks (Chapter 6) to create dual-setting cements with a further improvement of mechanical performance. While a modification of the cement pastes with a TEOS derived sol was already thought to improve strength, it was hypothesized that using multi-arm silica precursors can further enhance their mechanical performance due to a higher network density. In addition, this should also reduce pore size of both gels and cement and hence will be able to adjust the release kinetics of incorporated drugs. For this, multi-armed silica precursors were synthesized by the reaction of various multivalent alcohols (ethylene glycol, glycerine, pentaerythrit) with an isocyanate modified silica precursor. After hydrolysis under acidic conditions, the sols were mixed with baghdadite cement powders in order to allow a simultaneous gel formation and cement setting. Since the silica monomers have a high degree of linkage sites, this resulted in a branched network that interpenetrated with the growing cement crystals. In addition to minor changes in the crystalline phase composition as determined by X-ray diffraction, the novel composites exhibited improved mechanical properties with up to 20 times higher compressive strength and further benefit from an about 50% lower overall porosity than the reference pure baghdadite cement. In addition, the initial burst release of the model drug vancomycin was completely inhibited by the added silica matrix. This observation was verified by testing for the antimicrobial activity with Staphylococcus aureus by measuring the inhibition zones of selected samples after 24 h and 48 h, whereas the antimicrobial effectiveness of a constant vancomycin release could be demonstrated.
The current thesis clearly demonstrated the high potential of baghdadite as a cement formulation for medical application. The initially poor mechanical properties of such cements can be overcome by special processing techniques or by combination with silica networks. The achieved mechanical performance is > 10 MPa and hence suitable for bone replacement under non-load bearing conditions. The high intrinsic radiopacity as well as the alkaline pH during setting may open the way ahead to further dental applications, e.g. as root canal sealers or filler in dental composites. Here, the high pH is thought to lead to antimicrobial properties of such materials similar to commonly applied calcium hydroxide or calcium silicates, however combined with an intrinsic radiopacity for X-ray imaging. This would simplify such formulations to single component materials which are less susceptible to demixing processes during transport, storage or processing.
Heutige chirurgische Situationen können zeitweise den Einsatz eines Knochenkleber erfordern, welcher sich jedoch noch nicht in der klinischen Praxis etablieren konnte. In jüngster Vergangenheit haben mit Phosphoserin modifizierte Zemente (PMC) auf der Grundlage von Verbindungen zwischen o-Phosphoserin (OPLS) und Calciumphosphaten wie Tetracalciumphosphat (TTCP) oder α-Tricalciumphosphat (α-TCP) an Popularität gewonnen. Ebenso bekommen chelatbildende Magnesiumphosphatzemente als mineralische Knochenadhäsive mehr Zuspruch. In dieser Arbeit wurden neue mineralorganische Knochenzemente auf der Basis von Phosphoserin und Magnesiumphosphaten oder -oxiden untersucht, die hervorragende Hafteigenschaften besitzen. Diese wurden mittels Röntgenbeugung, Fourier-Infrarot-Spektroskopie und Elektronenmikroskopie analysiert und mechanischen Tests unterzogen, um die Haftfestigkeit am Knochen nach Alterung unter physiologischen Bedingungen zu bestimmen. Die neuartigen biomineralischen Klebstoffe zeigen eine ausgezeichnete Haftfestigkeit an Knochen mit etwa 6,6-7,3 MPa unter Scherbelastung. Die Adhäsive sind auch aufgrund ihres kohäsiven Versagensmusters und ihres duktilen Charakters vielversprechend. In diesem Zusammenhang sind die neuen adhäsiven Zemente den derzeit vorherrschenden Knochenadhäsiven überlegen. Ergänzend wurde versucht, dieses neue System mit unterschiedlichen Additiven zu modifizieren. Dabei wurde Mannit erfolgreich als Porogen verwendet. Dreiarmiges sternförmiges NCO-sP(EO-stat-PO) sollte die adhäsiven Eigenschaften und das Leistungspotenzial unter Wasser verbessern. Zuletzt wurden mit Glycerol präfabrizierte Pasten hergestellt, welche gelagert werden können und bei Kontakt mit Wasser aushärten. Generell ist zu betonen, dass künftige Bemühungen um Knochenklebstoffe aus Phosphoserin und Mg2+ sehr lohnenswert erscheinen.
The human body has very good self-healing capabilities for numerous different injuries to a variety of different tissues. This includes the main human mechanical framework, the skeleton. The skeleton is limited in its healing without additional aid by medicine mostly by the defect size. When the defect reaches a size above 2.5 cm the regeneration of the defect ends up faulty. Here is where implants, defect fillers and other support approaches developed in medicine can help the body to heal the big defect still successfully.
Usually sturdy implants (auto-/allo-/xenogenic) are implanted in the defect to bridge the distance, but for auto- and allogenic implants a suitable donor site must be found and for all sources the implant needs to be shaped into the defect specific site to ensure a perfect fit, the best support and good healing. This shaping is very time consuming and prone to error, already in the planning phase. The use of a material that is moldable and sets in the desired shape shortly after applying negates these disadvantages. Cementitious materials offer exactly this property by being in a pasty stage after the powder and liquid components have been mixed and the subsequently hardening to a solid implant. These properties also enable the extrusion, and therefore may also enable the injection, of the cement via a syringe in a minimal invasive approach.
To enable a good injection of the cement modifications are necessary. This work aimed to modify commonly used calcium phosphate-based cement systems based on α-TCP (apatitic) and β-TCP (brushitic). These have been modified with sodium phytate and phytic acid, respectively. Additionally, the α-TCP system has been modified with sodium pyrophosphate, in a second study, to create a storable aqueous paste that can be activated once needed with a highly concentrated sodium orthophosphate solution.
The powder phase of the α-TCP cement system consisted of nine parts α-TCP and one part CDHA. These were prepared to have different particle sizes and therefore enable a better powder flowability through the bimodal size distribution. α-TCP had a main particle size of 20 μm and CDHA of 2.6 μm. The modification with sodium phytate led to an adsorption of phytate ions on the surface of the α-TCP particles, where they started to form complexes with the Ca2+ ions in the solution. This adsorption had two effects. The first was to make the calcium ions unavailable, preventing supersaturation and ultimately the precipitation of CDHA what would lead to the cement hardening. The second was the increase of the absolute value of the surface charge, zeta potential, of the powder in the cement paste. Here a decrease from +3 mV to -40 mV could be measured. A strong value for the zeta potential leads to a higher repulsion of similarly charged particles and therefore prevents powder agglomeration and clogging on the nozzle during injection. These two modifications (bimodal particles size distribution and phytic acid) lead to a significant increase in the paste injectability. The unmodified paste was injectable for 30 % only, where all modified pastes were practically fully injectable ~90 % (the residual paste remained in the nozzle, while the syringe plunger already reached the end of the syringe).
A very similar observation could be made for the β-TCP system. This system was modified with phytic acid. The zeta potential was decreased even stronger from -10 ± 1.5 mV to -71.5 ± 12 mV. The adsorption of the phytate ions and subsequent formation of chelate complexes with the newly dissolved Ca2+ ions also showed a retarding effect in the cements setting reaction. Where the unmodified cement was not measurable in the rheometer, as the reaction was faster than the measurement setup (~1.5 min), the modified cements showed a transition through the gel point between 3-6 min. This means the pastes stayed between 2 and 4 times longer viscous than without the modification. Like with the first cement system also here the effects of the phytate addition showed its beneficial influence in the injectability measurement. The unmodified cement was not injectable at all, due to the same issue already encountered at the rheology measurements, but all modified pastes were fully injectable for at least 5 min (lowest phytate concentration) and at least 10 min (all other concentrations) after the mixing of powder and liquid.
The main goal of the last modification with sodium pyrophosphate was to create a paste that was stable in aqueous environment without setting until the activation takes place, but it should still show good injectability as this was the desired way of application after activation. Like before also the zeta potential changed after the addition of pyrophosphate. It could be lowered from -22 ± 2mV down to -61 to -68 ± 4mV (depending on the pyrophosphate concentration). The pastes were stored in airtight containers at room temperature and checked for their phase composition over 14 days. The unmodified paste showed a beginning phase conversion to hydroxyapatite between 7 and 14 days. All other pastes were still stable and unreacted. The pastes were activated with a high concentrated (30 wt%) sodium orthophosphate solution. After the activation the pastes were checked for their injectability and showed an increase from -57 ± 11% for the unmodified paste to -89 ± 3% (practically fully injectable as described earlier) for the best modified paste (PP005).
It can be concluded that the goal of enabling full injection of conventional calcium phosphate bone cement systems was reached. Additional work produced a storage stable paste that still ensures full injectability. Subsequent work already used the storable paste and modified it with hyaluronic acid to create an ink for 3D extrusion printing. The first two cement systems have also already been investigated in cell culture for their influence on osteoblasts and osteoclasts. The next steps would have to go more into the direction of translation. Figuring out what properties still need to be checked and where the modification needs adjustment to enable a clinical use of the presented systems.
Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit sollte herausgefunden werden, inwiefern Calciumorthophosphatzemente (CPC) dafür geeignet sind, um als Prüfkörper zur Qualifizierung von Knochenklebern zu dienen, und worin ihre Limitationen bestehen. Dazu sollte nicht nur ein materieller Vergleich verschiedener hydroxylapatitbildender Zemente mit Knochen erfolgen. Es sollte auch das Adhäsionsverhalten neuartiger Knochenkleber auf den verschiedenen Prüfkörpermaterialien verglichen werden, um mögliche Rückschlüsse für die Eignung als standardisierbares in-vitro Prüfkörpermaterial ziehen zu können.
Gegenstand der Untersuchung war ein α-Tricalciumphosphat (α-TCP)-System und ein Tetracalciumphosphat (TTCP)-System welche im Rahmen einer Zement-Abbindereaktion calciumdefizitären Hydroxylapatit (CDHA) bzw. stöchiometrischen Hydroxylapatit (HA) bilden. Die Materialien wurden dazu verwendet Prüfkörperteile in Form von Zylindern (5 x 5 mm) und Plättchen (20 x 10 x 5 mm) herzustellen, die dann mit verschiedenen Knochenklebern verklebt werden konnten. Der stärkste der verwendeten Kleber war ein Cyanoacrylat-Kleber (Truglue®). Er erzielte auf Prüfkörpern aus Knochen nach 24-stündiger Lagerung in PBS mittlere Abscherfestigkeiten von ca. 4,22 ± 1,92 MPa. Als zweitstärkster Kleber erwies sich ein neuartiger zementbasierter Kleber, der aus wärmebehandeltem Trimagnesiumphosphat-Hydrat und Phosphoserin bestand. Dieser Kleber erzielte unter den gleichen Umständen mittlere Abscherfestigkeiten von ca. 1,89 ± 0,29 MPa. Etwas schwächer schnitt ein ebenfalls neuartiger zementbasierter Kleber ab, der aus dem Magnesiumphosphat Farringtonit, sowie aus Magnesiumoxid und 25 % Phytinsäure bestand. Dieser Kleber erzielte mittlere Abscherfestigkeiten von ca. 0,51 ± 0,16 MPa. Insgesamt haben die Untersuchungen gezeigt, dass die in-vitro Qualifizierung von Knochenklebern unter Verwendung von Prüfkörpern aus Zement möglich wäre. Die Prüfkörper aus CDHA vereinten die meisten Vorteile und wären für Klebesysteme mit Abscherfestigkeiten von bis zu 2 MPa geeignet. Dabei erzeugten die Knochenkleber auf CDHA zwar abweichende Abscherfestigkeiten als auf Knochen, doch ließ sich ein vergleichbarer Trend bei stets reduzierten Varianzen erkennen. Durch die gute Konsistenz der Zementpaste war die Herstellung homogener Prüfkörper möglich. Aufgrund der Stabilität von CDHA unter wässrigen Bedingungen konnten Langzeitversuche ohne Einschränkungen vorgenommen werden. Die Limitationen der Prüfkörper aus CDHA bestanden allerdings darin, dass sie nicht für Abscherversuche von stärkeren Klebern geeignet waren. In solchen Fällen versagten die Prüfkörper noch bevor die maximale Abscherfestigkeit des jeweiligen Klebers gemessen werden konnte.
Das Ziel der experimentellen Studie war die Erprobung der (bereits in vitro erfolgreich getesteten) Ca(OH)2-Beschichtung In vivo unter dem Aspekt, ob und inwieweit die antibakteriellen und somit auch antiinflammatorischen bzw. entzündungsmoderierenden Eigenschaften der Ca(OH)2-Beschichtung eine sinnvolle und effektive Ergänzung zu den bisher erfolgreich eingesetzten Calciumphosphat(CaP)-Beschichtungen mit bewiesenen, guten proosseointegrativen Eigenschaften bei lasttragenden Implantaten sein können.
Zusammenfassend kann festgestellt werden, dass die Ergebnisse der In vitro Untersuchung durch die In vivo Versuche in den Bereichen 0-100 KBE grundsätzlich als gestützt gelten können. Die Zuverlässigkeit der Wirkung durch Ca(OH)2 nimmt jedoch mit steigender KBE-Zahl ab, sodass weitere Testreihen sinnvoll sind.
Augmenting the vascular supply to generate new tissues, a crucial aspect in regenerative medicine, has been challenging. Recently, our group showed that calcium phosphate can induce the formation of a functional neo-angiosome without the need for microsurgical arterial anastomosis. This was a preclinical proof of concept for biomaterial-induced luminal sprouting of large-diameter vessels. In this study, we investigated if sprouting was a general response to surgical injury or placement of an inorganic construct around the vessel. Cylindrical biocement scaffolds of differing chemistries were placed around the femoral vein. A contrast agent was used to visualize vessel ingrowth into the scaffolds. Cell populations in the scaffold were mapped using immunohistochemistry. Calcium phosphate scaffolds induced 2.7–3 times greater volume of blood vessels than calcium sulphate or magnesium phosphate scaffolds. Macrophage and vSMC populations were identified that changed spatially and temporally within the scaffold during implantation. NLRP3 inflammasome activation peaked at weeks 2 and 4 and then declined; however, IL-1β expression was sustained over the course of the experiment. IL-8, a promoter of angiogenesis, was also detected, and together, these responses suggest a role of sterile inflammation. Unexpectedly, the effect was distinct from an injury response as a result of surgical placement and also was not simply a foreign body reaction as a result of placing a rigid bioceramic next to a vein, since, while the materials tested had similar microstructures, only the calcium phosphates tested elicited an angiogenic response. This finding then reveals a potential path towards a new strategy for creating better pro-regenerative biomaterials.
Present surgical situations require a bone adhesive which has not yet been developed for use in clinical applications. Recently, phosphoserine modified cements (PMC) based on mixtures of o-phosphoserine (OPLS) and calcium phosphates, such as tetracalcium phosphate (TTCP) or α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) as well as chelate setting magnesium phosphate cements have gained increasing popularity for their use as mineral bone adhesives. Here, we investigated new mineral-organic bone cements based on phosphoserine and magnesium phosphates or oxides, which possess excellent adhesive properties. These were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, Fourier infrared spectroscopy and electron microscopy and subjected to mechanical tests to determine the bond strength to bone after ageing at physiological conditions. The novel biomineral adhesives demonstrate excellent bond strength to bone with approximately 6.6–7.3 MPa under shear load. The adhesives are also promising due to their cohesive failure pattern and ductile character. In this context, the new adhesive cements are superior to currently prevailing bone adhesives. Future efforts on bone adhesives made from phosphoserine and Mg2+ appear to be very worthwhile.
Zinc (Zn2+) is considered as important mediator of immune cell function, thrombosis and haemostasis. However, our understanding of the transport mechanisms that regulate Zn2+ homeostasis in platelets is limited. Zn2+ transporters, ZIPs and ZnTs, are widely expressed in eukaryotic cells. Using mice globally lacking ZIP1 and ZIP3 (ZIP1/3 DKO), our aim was to explore the potential role of these Zn2+ transporters in maintaining platelet Zn2+ homeostasis and in the regulation of platelet function. While ICP-MS measurements indicated unaltered overall Zn2+ concentrations in platelets of ZIP1/3 DKO mice, we observed a significantly increased content of FluoZin3-stainable free Zn2+, which, however, appears to be released less efficiently upon thrombin-stimulated platelet activation. On the functional level, ZIP1/3 DKO platelets exhibited a hyperactive response towards threshold concentrations of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) agonists, while immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-coupled receptor agonist signalling was unaffected. This resulted in enhanced platelet aggregation towards thrombin, bigger thrombus volume under flow ex vivo and faster in vivo thrombus formation in ZIP1/3 DKO mice. Molecularly, augmented GPCR responses were accompanied by enhanced Ca2+ and PKC, CamKII and ERK1/2 signalling. The current study thereby identifies ZIP1 and ZIP3 as important regulators for the maintenance of platelet Zn2+ homeostasis and function.
The use of bone-cement-enforced osteosynthesis is a growing topic in trauma surgery. In this context, drillability is a desirable feature for cements that can improve fracture stability, which most of the available cement systems lack. Therefore, in this study, we evaluated a resorbable and drillable magnesium-phosphate (MgP)-based cement paste considering degradation behavior and biocompatibility in vivo. Two different magnesium-phosphate-based cement (MPC) pastes with different amounts of phytic acid (IP 6) as setting retarder (MPC 22.5 and MPC 25) were implanted in an orthotopic defect model of the lateral femoral condyle of New Zealand white rabbits for 6 weeks. After explantation, their resorption behavior and material characteristics were evaluated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), porosimetry measurement, histological staining, peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT), cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and biomechanical load-to-failure tests. Both cement pastes displayed comparable results in mechanical strength and resorption kinetics. Bone-contact biocompatibility was excellent without any signs of inflammation. Initial resorption and bone remodeling could be observed. MPC pastes with IP 6 as setting retardant have the potential to be a valuable alternative in distinct fracture patterns. Drillability, promising resorption potential and high mechanical strength confirm their suitability for use in clinical routine.
