Biofilms exhibit increased resistance to antimicrobials relative to single planktonic cells, emphasizing the need for effective biofilm removal during periodontal therapy for peri-implantitis treatment. To tackle this issue, our team evaluated the effectiveness of low-temperature plasma (LTP) for disinfecting titanium discs contaminated with multispecies biofilms associated with peri-implantitis, specifically focusing on biofilms matured for 14 and 21 days as well as biofilms that had formed on Straumann<sup>Ⓡ</sup> Ti-SLA implants for 21 days. The biofilms included <i>Actinomyces naeslundii</i>, <i>Porphyromonas gingivalis</i>, <i>Streptococcus oralis</i>, and <i>Veillonella dispar</i>, which were grown in anaerobic conditions. These biofilms were subjected to LTP treatment for 1, 3, and 5 min, using distances of 3 or 10 mm from the LTP nozzle to the samples. Control groups included biofilms formed on Ti discs or implants that received no treatment, exposure to argon flow at 3 or 10 mm of distance for 1, 3, or 5 min, application for 1 min of 14 μg/mL amoxicillin, 140 μg/mL metronidazole, or a blend of both, and treatment with 0.12% chlorhexidine (CHX) for 1 min. For the implants, 21-day-old biofilms were treated with 0.12% CHX 0.12% for 1 min and LTP for 1 min at a distance of 3 mm for each quadrant. Biofilm viability was assessed through bacterial counting and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The impact of LTP was investigated on reconstituted oral epithelia (ROE) contaminated with <i>P. gingivalis</i>, evaluating cytotoxicity, cell viability, and histology. The results showed that a 1 min exposure to LTP at distances of 3 or 10 mm significantly lowered bacterial counts on implants and discs compared to the untreated controls (<i>p</i> < 0.017). LTP exposure yielded lower levels of cytotoxicity relative to the untreated contaminated control after 12 h of contamination (<i>p</i> = 0.038), and cell viability was not affected by LTP (<i>p</i> ≥ 0.05); thus, LTP-treated samples were shown to be safe for tissue applications, with low cytotoxicity and elevated cell viability post-treatment, and these results were validated by qualitative histological analysis. In conclusion, the study's results support the effectiveness of 1 min LTP exposure in successfully disinfecting mature peri-implantitis multispecies biofilms on titanium discs and implants. Moreover, it validated the safety of LTP on ROE, suggesting its potential as an adjunctive treatment for peri-implantitis.</p>","PeriodicalId":8,"journal":{"name":"ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering","volume":" ","pages":"7647-7656"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142612601","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) hydrogels were reconstructed with stiffnesses spanning the range from normal to cancerous PDAC tissues, which are termed as the soft group and stiff group. The PDAC cell lines (Mia-PaCa2 and CFPAC-1) encapsulated in the stiff group displayed a chemoresistance phenotype and were prominent against gemcitabine.

The management of nonunion is not only financially prohibitive but often necessitates invasive surgical interventions. This comprehensive manuscript aims to provide an extensive review of the published literature involving growth factors, stem cells, and novel delivery mechanisms for the treatment of fracture nonunion. Key growth factors involved in bone healing have been extensively studied, including bone morphogenic protein (BMP), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and platelet-derived growth factor. This review includes both preclinical and clinical studies that evaluated the role of growth factors in acute and chronic nonunion. Overall, these studies revealed promising bridging and fracture union rates but also elucidated complications such as heterotopic ossification and inferior mechanical properties associated with chronic nonunion. Stem cells, particularly mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), are an extensively studied topic in the treatment of nonunion. A literature search identified articles that demonstrated improved healing responses, osteogenic capacity, and vascularization of fractures due to the presence of MSCs. Furthermore, this review addresses novel mechanisms and materials being researched to deliver these growth factors and stem cells to nonunion sites, including natural/synthetic polymers and bioceramics. The specific mechanisms explored in this review include BMP-induced osteoblast differentiation, VEGF-mediated angiogenesis, and the role of MSCs in multilineage differentiation and paracrine signaling. While these therapeutic modalities exhibit substantial preclinical promise in treating fracture nonunion, there remains a need for further research, particularly in chronic nonunion and large animal models.
