One promising avenue to address this challenge and capitalize on the effectiveness of antibiotic administration involves utilizing titania nanotubes (TNTs) loaded with vancomycin (Van). Electrochemical anodization offers a contemporary approach for producing Titania-NTs with applications in localized vancomycin delivery. However, the regulation of the drug release mechanism from these delivery systems is complex. This research delves into the controlled release of vancomycin from Titania-NT surfaces enriched with drug/polymer through physical absorption. The loading and in vitro releases of Van were analyzed using the Korsmeyer–Peppas kinetic model (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.99), which indicated non-Fickian diffusion (case II/I, <i>n</i> = 0.41). Antibacterial activity was tested against <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> and <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> through turbidity measurements, CFU counts, and agar disc diffusion assays. Protein adsorption on titanium surfaces was evaluated, and gene expression analysis was performed to assess osteogenic markers (ALP and OCN). Vancomycin-loaded TNTs (11 μM) stimulated MC3T3-E1 cell proliferation, demonstrating enhanced cell viability. The presence of chitosan effectively controlled the Van delivery process. The morphology of anodized Ti surfaces played a key role in inhibiting bacterial growth. Results demonstrated reduced bacterial growth and significant protein adsorption on modified surfaces. Chitosan-loaded TNTs significantly upregulated osteogenic markers ALP and OCN, with T60-van/chit-20 showing the highest expression levels, enhancing osteogenic differentiation and bone integration.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":15269,"journal":{"name":"Journal of biomedical materials research.

The widespread misuse of antibiotics has further exacerbated this issue by driving antibiotic resistance, creating an urgent need for alternative therapeutic strategies. This study investigates the potential effects of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles (ZnONPs) combined with Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) as a solution to overcome these barriers. By employing a comprehensive approach, the effect of these materials was evaluated through histopathological, immunohistochemical, and bacteriological analyses, alongside macroscopic observations, which included body weight, wound size, and contraction assessment. Fifty-four male adult Albino Wistar rats were used in this study. A full-thickness circular <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>-infected skin wound of a 23 mm diameter was induced in all rats. After 3 days, these rats were divided into 3 groups according to the treatment protocol: the infected group (treatment with normal saline 0.9%), the CMC group (treatment with CMC alone), and the CMC/ZnONPs group (treatment with CMC/ZnONPs gel). Rats were then euthanized, and samples were collected for histopathology and immunohistochemistry on days 7, 14, and 21 postoperatively. Swabs were taken from the wounds for bacterial examination on the 2nd, 7th, 14th, and 21st postoperatively. Although the CMC alone enhanced the wound healing, the combination of the CMC and the ZnONPs demonstrates a significantly superior effect by enhancing angiogenesis, reducing inflammation, and accelerating re-epithelialization. Additionally, for CMC to achieve an effective antibacterial effect, it must be applied four times daily, whereas the CMC/ZnONPs gel requires only twice-daily application. Therefore, the incorporation of ZnONPs appears essential for CMC to exert effective antibacterial activity.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":15269,"journal":{"name":"Journal of biomedical materials research.

Current scaffolds are limited in their ability to restore functionality of the injured muscle, which may be due to lack of cell recruitment to the scaffold and/or lack of sufficient myofiber formation. Our approach involves the controlled release of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) from a biopolymer scaffold, as IGF-1 enhances both the proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts, which we hypothesize will enhance regeneration after VML. In this study, to facilitate a more controlled release of IGF-1, we added IGF-binding protein 5 (IGFBP-5) to anisotropic collagen sponges with finely tuned pore sizes via heparin conjugation to stabilize the IGFBP-5/IGF-1 complex. Scaffolds containing heparin, IGFBP-5, and IGF-1 induced the highest level of myofiber formation for up to 4 weeks, suggesting this scaffold system supported the sustained release of active IGF-1.

To effectively reduce stress shielding and enhance implant longevity, it is essential to accurately predict the GLS's elastic moduli across a broad range of relative densities for various material selections. This study conducted a comprehensive finite element analysis of strut-based GLS models, considering unit cell arrangements, a wider range of relative densities, and variations in lattice orientations to predict its relative elastic moduli. GLS models with relative densities of 10%, 30%, 50%, and 75% were experimentally tested and numerically analyzed to capture properties across a broader density range. The well-known Gibson-Ashby model and a machine learning (ML)-based surrogate model employing Gaussian Process Regression were developed to extend predictions across the full-density spectrum. The results showed that different relative densities required varying numbers of unit cells to achieve elastic modulus convergence. The improved Gibson-Ashby model provided closer predictions to experiments over a wider density range but struggled to fully capture behavior at high relative densities near bulk material properties. In contrast, the ML-based surrogate model accurately predicts elastic moduli across the entire relative density range. Compared to experimental results, this approach demonstrates greater accuracy in predicting the elastic modulus of GLS, with reduced error compared to other methods. These findings are particularly valuable for optimizing implant and scaffold designs, as accurate modulus predictions contribute to improved performance and longevity, helping to mitigate the stress-shielding effect.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":15269,"journal":{"name":"Journal of biomedical materials research.
