Abstract
Background: Bone defects, particularly in the mandible, pose significant clinical challenges due to the limited regenerative capacity. Effective bone tissue engineering requires biomaterials that promote both osteogenesis and angiogenesis. This study developed an optimized collagen-nano hydroxyapatite scaffold loaded with dexamethasone and stem cells to enhance bone regeneration.
Methods: The scaffold was fabricated using the freeze-dryer method. Characterization was performed using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Wharton's jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) were incorporated into the scaffold, and in vitro and in vivo assessments were conducted.
Results: FTIR and EDX analyses confirmed the successful incorporation of nano-hydroxyapatite and dexamethasone. SEM revealed an interconnected porous structure with an average pore size of 28.55 µm. The scaffold loaded with WJ-MSCs significantly enhanced osteocyte and osteoblast populations, leading to improved mandibular bone formation. Histopathological evaluations demonstrated superior osteogenesis and angiogenesis.
Conclusion: The developed porous nanohybrid scaffold shows potential as a promising biomaterial for bone tissue engineering applications.
期刊介绍:
Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery founded as Mund-, Kiefer- und Gesichtschirurgie is a peer-reviewed online journal. It is designed for clinicians as well as researchers.The quarterly journal offers comprehensive coverage of new techniques, important developments and innovative ideas in oral and maxillofacial surgery and interdisciplinary aspects of cranial, facial and oral diseases and their management. The journal publishes papers of the highest scientific merit and widest possible scope on work in oral and maxillofacial surgery as well as supporting specialties. Practice-oriented articles help improve the methods used in oral and maxillofacial surgery.Every aspect of oral and maxillofacial surgery is fully covered through a range of invited review articles, clinical and research articles, technical notes, abstracts, and case reports. Specific topics are: aesthetic facial surgery, clinical pathology, computer-assisted surgery, congenital and craniofacial deformities, dentoalveolar surgery, head and neck oncology, implant dentistry, oral medicine, orthognathic surgery, reconstructive surgery, skull base surgery, TMJ and trauma.Time-limited reviewing and electronic processing allow to publish articles as fast as possible. Accepted articles are rapidly accessible online.Clinical studies submitted for publication have to include a declaration that they have been approved by an ethical committee according to the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki 1964 (last amendment during the 52nd World Medical Association General Assembly, Edinburgh, Scotland, October 2000). Experimental animal studies have to be carried out according to the principles of laboratory animal care (NIH publication No 86-23, revised 1985).
