Abstract
Abstract The treatment of infectious bone defects has become a troublesome issue in orthopedics. The disease requires effective anti-infective and bone-reconstruction therapeutic functionalities. In this study, we prepared a novel antibacterial material (vancomycin-impregnated periosteal extracellular matrix [Van-PEM]) by embedding vancomycin in a periosteal extracellular matrix (PEM)-derived hydrogel via physical stirring for the treatment of infectious bone defects. The microstructure, porosity, degradation, and release properties of this antibacterial hydrogel were characterized. The in vitro hemolytic reaction, cytotoxicity, osteogenic ability, and antibacterial properties were also carefully studied. The results showed that the Van-PEM hydrogel possessed a fibrous network structure with high porosity. Moreover, the hydrogel demonstrated slow degradation in vitro and could release vancomycin for at least 1 week. The hydrogel showed no cytotoxicity and possessed good biocompatibility with blood cells. It also promoted osteogenesis and exerted a significant bactericidal effect. Subsequently, the anti-infection and bone-healing abilities of the antibacterial hydrogel were investigated in a rat model of infectious calvarial defects, and the infectious skull defect was successfully cured in vivo. Therefore, Van-PEM hydrogels may represent a promising therapeutic approach for treating infectious bone defects.
期刊介绍:
The bimonthly journal Nanotechnology Reviews provides a platform for scientists and engineers of all involved disciplines to exchange important recent research on fundamental as well as applied aspects. While expert reviews provide a state of the art assessment on a specific topic, research highlight contributions present most recent and novel findings.
In addition to technical contributions, Nanotechnology Reviews publishes articles on implications of nanotechnology for society, environment, education, intellectual property, industry, and politics.
