Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of medical materials technology, and in particular relates to a periodontal regeneration material that combines the functions of regulating the periodontal coagulation immune microenvironment and slow-release trace elements that promote periodontal regeneration. Background Technology

[0002] The periodontal tissue structure is complex, containing cementum, periodontal ligament, alveolar bone, and gingival connective tissue, among other composite structures. These tissues are closely interconnected, forming the "cementum-periodontal ligament-alveolar bone functional complex," which collectively performs oral functions. Periodontal tissue regeneration involves the regeneration of soft and hard tissues from different sources, as well as the functional integration between these tissues. Therefore, periodontal regeneration is a distinct field from bone regeneration, and its difficulty far exceeds that of simple bone regeneration. However, currently, there are no materials specifically designed for periodontal tissue regeneration in clinical practice. Often, bone regeneration materials are directly applied to periodontal tissues, frequently leading to clinical problems such as epithelial integration and fibrous encapsulation, resulting in a lack of breakthroughs in periodontal treatment in clinical dentistry. Therefore, it is essential to develop biomaterials specifically designed for periodontal tissue regeneration, addressing its physiological characteristics, to achieve complex periodontal tissue regeneration and overcome current bottlenecks in periodontal tissue regeneration. This is of significant strategic importance and a consensus within the current dental field. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a periodontal regeneration material, its preparation method, and its application.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, in a first aspect, the present invention provides a periodontal regeneration material, wherein the periodontal regeneration material is a mesoporous silica microsphere having a regulatory periodontal coagulation immune microenvironment, and the mesoporous silica microsphere is loaded with trace elements that promote periodontal regeneration; the trace elements include at least one selected from copper, strontium, magnesium, lithium, iron, zinc, manganese, selenium, molybdenum, and cobalt.

[0005] Blood clotting is a crucial initiating factor in periodontal regeneration. Periodontal blood clots, by creating a favorable local immune microenvironment, mediate the migration, proliferation, and differentiation of stem cells derived from periodontal soft and hard tissues, effectively inducing the regeneration of periodontal complex tissues. An ideal periodontal blood clot is characterized by fine fiber diameter, numerous branching points, high density, and low porosity. Previous studies have confirmed that controlling the fiber diameter of the periodontal blood clot to 0.1-0.15 μm and the porosity to 20-25%, with a multi-branched clot, can effectively promote periodontal tissue regeneration. This structure reduces the contact area of ​​immune cells, lowers macrophage inflammation levels, promotes the formation of a regenerative and repairing immune microenvironment, and prevents periodontal tissue regeneration failure caused by excessive inflammatory responses, such as fiber encapsulation and epithelial integration. Furthermore, the fibrin network within the blood clot acts as a scaffold structure, guiding the migration of osteoblasts and periodontal ligament fibroblasts from the alveolar bone and periodontal ligament, promoting early in situ tissue regeneration. Meanwhile, the blood clot exhibits good stability, which helps prevent premature ingrowth of cells from epithelial tissue, thus preventing periodontal complex regeneration failure. Therefore, high-performance periodontal regeneration materials need to form a good periodontal blood clot microstructure, create a regenerative immune microenvironment, avoid periodontal tissue regeneration failure caused by fibrous encapsulation, and promote periodontal tissue regeneration.

[0006] However, while creating a favorable periodontal coagulation and immune microenvironment by regulating blood clot parameters can prevent periodontal regeneration failure caused by excessive fibrosis, it is still difficult to completely rebuild the complex structure of cementum-periodontal ligament-alveolar bone. Therefore, it is necessary to further introduce trace elements that promote the synergistic regeneration of multiple periodontal tissues to synergistically promote the functional integration of periodontal soft and hard tissues and achieve functional regeneration of periodontal tissues. Previous studies have shown that the levels of copper, lithium, and strontium ions in the crevicular fluid of patients with periodontitis are significantly lower than normal. Introducing trace elements that promote the synergistic regeneration of multiple periodontal tissues during periodontal regeneration can stimulate the regeneration of cementum-periodontal ligament-alveolar bone tissue and the functional integration of soft and hard tissues by activating the Wnt and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways. Therefore, high-performance periodontal regeneration materials need to create a favorable periodontal coagulation and immune microenvironment while simultaneously achieving controlled-release of trace elements that promote the synergistic regeneration of multiple periodontal tissues to rebuild the "cementum-periodontal ligament-alveolar bone functional complex" structure and achieve functional regeneration of periodontal tissues.

[0007] Therefore, given the current clinical lack and significant need for materials specifically designed for periodontal tissue regeneration, and addressing the complex regeneration requirements of the periodontal tissue structure (cementum-periodontal ligament-alveolar bone), this invention proposes a periodontal regeneration material. Customized mesoporous silica microspheres can adsorb fibrinogen during coagulation, forming heterogeneous fibrinogen nuclei that regulate the fibrin assembly process in periodontal coagulation, creating periodontal blood clots adapted for periodontal regeneration. This fosters a regenerative immune microenvironment and reduces periodontal tissue regeneration failure caused by fibrin encapsulation. Simultaneously, the periodontal regeneration-promoting trace elements loaded in the mesoporous silica microspheres are chemically bonded to the silica, rather than adsorbed by ions. This avoids poor coagulation caused by early burst release of trace elements. Furthermore, the amorphous mesoporous silica microspheres are acidic compounds that can slowly degrade under specific alkaline conditions in vivo, achieving controlled-release of trace elements and regenerating the functional complex of cementum-periodontal ligament-alveolar bone, thus realizing periodontal regeneration.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the periodontal regeneration material of the present invention, the mesoporous silica microspheres have an average particle size of 50-260 nm and an average specific surface area > 500 m². 2 / g.

Furthermore, the mesoporous size can be adjusted, thereby enabling it to load different types of trace elements and achieve superior results.

[0083] Example of effect

[0084] The performance of the periodontal regeneration materials prepared in the examples and comparative examples of this invention is verified by the effect examples, wherein the preparation and action process of the periodontal regeneration materials are shown in the schematic diagram. Figure 11 As shown; specifically including the following aspects:

[0085] 1. Physicochemical property testing

[0086] The prepared periodontal regeneration material was subjected to physicochemical property tests. Specifically, its morphology and structure were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, its chemical groups were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, its hydrophilicity was characterized by contact angle test, its specific surface area was characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption test, its trace element slow release ability was characterized by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, and the periodontal regeneration material after 8 days of degradation was further observed by transmission electron microscopy.

[0087] Data on average particle size, contact angle, average specific surface area, and trace element release capacity were recorded, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0088] Table 1

[0089]

[0090]

[0091] As shown in Table 1, the average particle size of the product prepared using the technical solution of this invention is between 212.81 and 236.45 nm, and the average specific surface area is between 667.70 and 834.52 m². 2 The particle size is between 0.25 and 0.32 mg / L, and the trace element release capacity over 8 days is between 0.25 and 0.32 mg / L. That is, the product prepared by the technical solution of this invention has a small particle size, a large average specific surface area, excellent hydrophilicity, and good trace element sustained release capacity.

[0092] As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, the particle size and pore size of the material did not change significantly compared with the material without trace elements. As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 3-4, when the pH value during gelation is too high, the diameter of the mesopores formed will also be too high or too low, and the pore size can be adjusted according to specific needs. As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Example 5, when the rate of adding the modifier during modification is too fast, the specific surface area will change significantly, and the specific surface area can be adjusted according to specific needs. As can be seen from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 6-7, when the calcination temperature is too low or too high, the element release rate changes significantly, and the specific release rate can be adjusted according to specific needs.

[0093] Furthermore, images of the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 are attached. Specifically, its morphology and structure were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, and the results are as follows. Figure 1 As shown, the chemical groups were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and the results are as follows. Figure 3 As shown, its hydrophilicity was characterized using a contact angle test, and the results are as follows. Figure 4 As shown, its specific surface area was characterized using a nitrogen adsorption-desorption test, and the results are as follows. Figure 5 As shown, the slow-release capability of Cu element was characterized using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, and the results are as follows. Figure 6 As shown, the periodontal regeneration material was further observed using transmission electron microscopy after 8 days of degradation, and the results are as follows. Figure 7 As shown;

[0094] Among them, by Figure 1 It is evident that the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 has a size between 50-260 nm and exhibits a unique mesoporous structure; Figure 2 It can be seen that the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 has an amorphous structure; Figure 3 It can be seen that the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 contains only Si-O bonds and -OH groups, with no other compound residues; Figure 4 It can be seen that the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 is a hydrophilic material, and due to its good water absorption, no water droplets are visible; Figure 5 It can be seen that the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 has a typical isothermal ring caused by mesoporous structure, and the specific surface area test value is greater than 700m². 2 / g; by Figure 6 The Cu release curve in the sample shows that the Cu in the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 is released stably and has a significant sustained-release effect, avoiding the adverse effects of early ion burst release on coagulation; Figure 7It can be seen that the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 has obvious degradability, and its original morphology is no longer visible after 8 days of degradation.

[0095] 2. Blood clot regulation performance

[0096] Test Procedure: A 24-well plate was divided into five groups: a blank control and a material group. Each group had at least three biological replicates. The blank control group was treated with 22 μl of pure water and 200 μl of whole rat blood, while the material group was treated with 22 μl of the material solution and 200 μl of whole rat blood. The plates were shaken, and the blood clotting time was recorded. Blood clots were fixed with paraformaldehyde, dehydrated, embedded, sectioned, and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) to observe the clot structure.

[0097] The results are shown in Table 2;

[0098] Table 2

[0099]

[0100]

[0101] As can be seen from Table 2, when the technical solution of the present invention is adopted, the obtained product has good blood clot regulation performance, and the result is that it can reduce the blood coagulation time. As can be seen from Examples 1-5 and the blank control group, when various trace elements are loaded, they can all reduce the blood coagulation time. As can be seen from Examples 1 and Comparative Example 2, when the amount of loaded trace elements is too large, the coagulation time increases, which is positively correlated with the amount of loaded elements. As can be seen from Examples 1 and Comparative Examples 3-4, when the pH value during gelation increases, the coagulation time increases, which is positively correlated with excessively high pH. As can be seen from Examples 1 and Comparative Examples 6-7, when the calcination temperature is too low, the material is still in a hydrophobic state and cannot be integrated with the blood, thus prolonging the coagulation time.

[0102] The periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 and the blood clot section results obtained from the Blank group ( Figure 8 The results show that the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 forms a dense, fine-diameter, and multi-branched blood clot network structure after application. The prepared periodontal regeneration material can adsorb fibrinogen during the coagulation process, forming "heterogeneous fibrinogen nuclei" to regulate the fibrin assembly process in periodontal coagulation.

[0103] 3. The immune microenvironment regulates periodontal regeneration performance.

[0104] 1) Immune microenvironment regulation performance

[0105] Test Procedure: The test consisted of a blank control group and a material group, with at least three biological replicates in each group. In 24-well plates, 22 μl of purified water and 200 μl of whole rat blood were added to the blank control group, while 22 μl of material solution and 200 μl of whole rat blood were added to the material group, resulting in blank and material blood clots. Red blood cells were lysed using 1X erythrocyte lysis buffer and seeded into the RAW264.7 macrophage cell line. Total RNA was extracted after 24 h, and RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of genes related to the macrophage immune microenvironment.

[0106] Depend on Figure 9 The results of the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 regulating the immune microenvironment show that after implantation of the material group in Example 1, the expression of anti-inflammatory genes in the periodontal defect was upregulated, such as CD206, Tgfb1, and IL4, while the expression of pro-inflammatory genes was downregulated, such as TNF and IL1. This indicates that the periodontal regeneration material prepared in this invention can effectively regulate the periodontal regeneration immune microenvironment.

[0107] 2) Periodontal regeneration performance

[0108] Test Procedure: The test consisted of a blank control group and a material group, with at least three biological replicates in each group. The blank control group was treated with 22 μl of pure water and 200 μl of whole rat blood, while the material group was treated with 22 μl of the material solution and 200 μl of whole rat blood. Blank blood clots and material blood clots were obtained. Defects were prepared in the mandibular premolar region of rats, and blood clots were implanted. Samples were taken at 28 days to observe the periodontal regeneration of the rats.

[0109] Depend on Figure 10 The results of the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 promoting the regeneration of periodontal composite tissue can be seen in the figure:

[0110] in, Figure 10 The black arrow points to newly formed cementum, the asterisk indicates widened newly formed periodontal ligament fibers, and NB indicates newly formed alveolar bone tissue. Figure 10 As can be seen from the results, the periodontal regeneration material prepared in Example 1 showed local regeneration of alveolar bone-periodontal ligament-cementum, while only the regeneration of fibers and a small amount of new bone was observed in the Control group, suggesting that the periodontal regeneration material prepared in this invention can achieve good periodontal multi-tissue regeneration.
