Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of medical technologies, and particularly to a method for detecting the osteoimmunomodulatory osteogenesis and osteogenic ability of PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogels. Background Art
[0002] With the extension of the average human lifespan and the aging of the global population, bone-related diseases have increased significantly. In the United States, more than 600,000 bone grafts are used annually to treat bone defects caused by cancer and trauma, costing more than $2.5 billion. Autologous or allogeneic bone grafting is a common method for treating large long bone defects. Autologous bone grafting is considered the "gold standard", but it has a long operation time and a risk of complications at the donor site. Allogeneic transplantation has risks of immune rejection and pathogen transmission, and the source is limited.
[0003] In recent years, the development of bone implants has provided solutions to this problem. Bone implant materials with excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance have been developed to improve bone integration performance and the repair of bone defects.
[0004] Clinically, currently commonly used substitutes for bone grafts, such as titanium alloy materials, although having certain mechanical properties, their biological inertness leads to a mismatch in integration with host bone defect tissues, resulting in implant loosening and even ineffective bone repair. In addition, existing bone substitutes lack shape adaptability and are insufficient in matching irregular bone defects. Regularizing irregular bones during surgery to match the shape of the implant will further cause bone tissue defects.
[0005] In the field of bone defect repair, 3D printing technology is widely used, mainly including preoperative planning and surgical simulation, so as to reduce the surgical difficulty, reduce surgical trauma, and promote postoperative recovery. Although 3D-printed implants can solve the repair problems of large and complex bone defects that are difficult to solve with some allogeneic or autologous bones, the in-situ implantation of 3D-printed implants for small or irregular bone defects into the bone defect position is much more difficult than that of shape-adaptive materials. The implanted biomaterial contacts the damaged bone tissue, forms a new biological interface, induces biological signals, promotes in-situ bone regeneration and bone integration, and reduces failures.
[0006] However, when the implanted biomaterial is recognized as a foreign substance by the immune system, it will trigger an immune response, leading to chronic inflammation and bone repair failure. As important innate immune cells, macrophages play a key role in the immune response. Highly plastic macrophages can switch between pro-inflammatory M1 and anti-inflammatory M2 phenotypes. If the implanted material activates the M1 phenotype, macrophages secrete inflammatory factors (such as IL-6, IL-1β, iNOS, and TNF-α), and the long-term action of these inflammatory factors will lead to chronic inflammation, induce the formation of a fibrous capsule, and ultimately result in bone repair failure. If the M2 phenotype is activated, it will play a direct role in bone defect regeneration by secreting anti-inflammatory factors (such as Arg-1 and IL-10), promoting the formation of a bone regeneration environment.
[0007] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop bone repair materials with stable structure, good shape adaptability, excellent shape memory ability and mechanical properties, which can adapt to irregular bone defects, regulate macrophage M2 polarization, and form a bone regeneration environment closely related to local osteogenic differentiation and bone integration, so as to achieve minimally invasive regenerative treatment of bone defects.

[0074] The following is a detailed description of the bone immunomodulatory osteogenesis promotion and osteogenic ability detection method of PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0075] Example 1
[0076] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, according to the bone immunomodulatory osteogenesis promotion method of PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the method includes the following steps:
[0077] S1. Prepare magnesium-doped bioactive glass MgBGs;
[0078] Prepare magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs using the sol-gel method combined with the microemulsion co-template method;
[0079] It should be noted here that bioactive ions with strong immunomodulatory properties have been applied to various inflammatory and degenerative diseases as well as the field of bone immunomodulation. Currently, commercially available magnesium-doped bioactive glass (MgBGs) can release various active ions such as magnesium ions (Mg 2+ ), calcium ions (Ca 2+ ) and silicate ions (SiO 4 4- ), and shows significant potential in immunomodulation and bone repair. Magnesium plays an important role in bone health, can regulate cell functions such as proliferation, adhesion and migration, and promote neovascularization.
[0080] Therefore, compared with pure magnesium ions, magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs is more suitable as a bone tissue repair material due to its slow and continuous release of magnesium ions, avoiding the problems of rapid degradation and hydrogen release. In addition, magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs is a material that can form chemical bonds with biological tissues. By introducing magnesium elements, magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs can not only enhance the biological activity of the material, but also improve its mechanical properties.
[0081] S2. Prepare PLL-MgBGs nanoparticles;
[0082] Using polylysine PLL as a modifier, mix it with magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs and stir evenly, so that the positively charged polylysine PLL and the negatively charged magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs are combined with each other through electrostatic interaction, and then dried to prepare magnesium-doped bioactive substance PLL-MgBGs nanoparticles loaded with polylysine;
[0083] S3. Prepare PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel;
[0084] Mix the prepared PLL-MgBGs nanoparticles with silk fibroin SF solution, and through low-temperature freezing and lyophilization, prepare PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel.
[0085] It should be noted here that silk fibroin (SF) is a natural protein biomaterial extracted from silkworm cocoons, which has good biocompatibility, controllable biodegradability and excellent mechanical properties, and is widely used in tissue regeneration, drug delivery and medical implants and other fields. However, traditional SF materials lack shape memory effect, and their structures are easily damaged under external forces, resulting in poor integration with bone defects after implantation. Shape memory SF materials need to be tough enough, fatigue-resistant, and have enough resilience to expand in a limited space. In addition, bone repair is a complex process involving multiple cells, signaling molecules and growth factors, and these biochemical signals can promote bone formation by triggering cell proliferation and differentiation, accelerating bone healing and improving the repair quality. To improve the bioactivity of SF materials, they are usually combined with other bioactive factors. Due to biosafety and ethical issues, materials added with cells or factors are restricted in clinical applications.
[0086] Therefore, this application combines magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs, polylysine PLL and silk fibroin (SF), and prepares PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel by the above method;
[0087] Control Figure 12 As shown, the results show that the PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel prepared in this application has good mechanical strain performance and can return to its original state after mechanical strain, resulting in excellent water-responsive shape memory ability.
[0088] S4. Make a complete medium suspension containing 1 mg / mL of PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel, incubate it at 37 °C on a shaker at a speed of 100 rpm for 24 h, and filter it with a 0.22 μm sterile filter head to prepare a sterile PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel extract;
[0089] S5. Seed macrophages (RAW264.7) in a 48-well plate at a density of 1.0×10 5 cells / well, culture them in medium for 24 h, then replace the medium with complete medium containing LPS (100 ng / mL) and culture for 8 h, and then replace it with complete medium containing the extract of PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel and culture for 3 days. Extract total mRNA using a total RNA kit, and detect the expression of pro-inflammatory genes (TNF-α, iNOS) and anti-inflammatory genes (IL-10, Arg-1) by RT-qPCR.
[0090] As shown in the following table, the primer sequences of the relevant genes for detecting pro-inflammatory genes (TNF-α, iNOS) and anti-inflammatory genes (IL-10, Arg-1) by RT-qPCR are as follows;
[0091] The primers of RAW264.7 cells-related genes for RT-qPCR
[0092]
[0093] Control Figure 13 As shown, the results show that after the above step S5, the PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel prepared in this application can promote the expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Detect the expression of M2 marker genes (Arg-1, IL-10) and M1 marker genes (TNF-α, iNOS) in macrophages by RT-qPCR. The results show that the PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel down-regulates M1 marker genes and up-regulates M2 marker genes, indicating that the PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel prepared in this application has the ability to regulate the polarization of macrophages from M1 type to M2 type.
[0094] Preferably, in this technical solution, as shown in the control Figure 2 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the step S1 specifically includes:
[0095] S11. Dissolve 4 g of dodecylamine (DDA) in a mixture of 80 mL of absolute ethanol and 25 mL of deionized water (DIW), and slowly dissolve it at 40 °C;
[0096] S12. Dropwise add tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and continue stirring for 30 min;
[0097] S13. Add 1.66 mL of TEP, 8.837 g of calcium nitrate tetrahydrate (CN), and 1.547 g of magnesium nitrate (MN) successively every 30 minutes, and keep the temperature at 40 °C all the time, and stir for 3 hours continuously.
[0098] S14. Centrifuge and wash the obtained crude product 3 times with absolute ethanol and DIW.
[0099] S15. Sinter the crude product in air at 650 °C for 3 hours to obtain magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs.
[0100] Preferably, in this technical solution, as shown in the control Figure 3 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the step S2 specifically includes:
[0101] S21. Measure 1 g of magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs and disperse it in 100 mL of deionized water (DIW) to form a mixed solution, and ultrasonicate for 30 minutes.
[0102] S22. Measure 0.06 g of polylysine PLL and add it to the formed mixed solution, and continue to stir for 24 hours.
[0103] S23. Centrifuge the stirred mixed solution for 10 minutes, wash it with deionized water (DIW) at least 3 times, and dry it at 60 °C to obtain PLL-MgBGs nanoparticles with a PLL content of 6%.
[0104] Preferably, in this technical solution, as shown in the control Figure 4 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the step S3 specifically includes:
[0105] S31. Use silk fibroin SF as the main material and remove the sericin in silk fibroin SF.
[0106] S32. Dissolve the silk fibroin SF with sericin removed in 9.3 M LiBr solution, and dialyze to remove LiBr to obtain a pure SF solution.
[0107] S33. Mix the prepared PLL-MgBGs nanoparticles with a PLL content of 6% with the obtained pure SF solution, and through low-temperature freezing and lyophilization, prepare PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel with a PLL content of 6%.
[0108] As shown in the control Figure 10 As shown in (a), the SEM results show that the prepared magnesium-doped bioactive substance MgBGs, PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel with a PLL content of 3%, and PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel with a PLL content of 6% all show regular spherical structures.
[0109] Control Figure 10 (b) shows that the XRD results indicate that for the prepared magnesium-doped bioactive material MgBGs, PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogels with 3% PLL content, and PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogels with 6% PLL content, they all have characteristic peaks of bioactive glass in the range of 20° - 30°, indicating that the surface PLL modification does not affect the microstructure and crystal configuration of MgBGs.
[0110] In addition, the potential analysis results show that PLL-MgBGs modified with 0.06 g of PLL is positively charged and has the potential to bind to silk fibroin (SF) through electrostatic interaction.
[0111] Regarding the above operation steps, it should be noted here that the control Figure 10 (c) shows that in the above step S2, the reason for measuring 0.06 g of polylysine PLL as the modifier is that through experiments, it is found that when the measured polylysine PLL is less than 0.06 g, such as 0.03 g or 0.00 g, when using a nanoparticle size analyzer to detect its potential, it shows a negative potential, which is not the result required by this application. Only when the measured polylysine PLL is 0.06 g or more, it shows a positive potential, so that an appropriate amount of positively charged polylysine PLL and an appropriate amount of negatively charged magnesium-doped bioactive material MgBGs can bind to each other through electrostatic interaction, and finally, magnesium-doped bioactive material PLL-MgBGs nanoparticles loaded with polylysine can be prepared.
[0112] Furthermore, for the prepared PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel, the preparation schematic diagram is referred to Figure 11 (a). The crystallization configuration of PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel is characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the results show that it is a typical type I crystallization. Specifically, it can be referred to Figure 11 (b) and Figure 11 (c). This crystallization can endow PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel with excellent shape memory ability and mechanical properties. The SEM results show that the prepared magnesium-doped bioactive material MgBGs, PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogels with 3% PLL content, and PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogels with 6% PLL content all have a macroporous connected structure. Specifically, it can be referred to Figure 11 (d).
[0113] Example 2
[0114] Control Figure 5As shown, the osteogenic ability detection method of PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel according to the embodiment of the present invention detects its osteogenic differentiation ability, including the following steps:
[0115] S101. Inoculate bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) into a 24-well plate and culture for 24 h, then add complete medium containing the extract of PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel for culture;

Moreover, it has a macroporous connected structure and can return to its original state after mechanical strain, resulting in excellent water-responsive shape memory ability.
[0147] Meanwhile, it can release various active ions such as Mg2+, Ca 2+ and SiO 4 4- etc., showing significant potential in immunomodulation and bone repair. Moreover, the prepared PLL-MgBGs / SF cryogel is implanted into the bone defect site by injection to fill it, enabling rapid matching of irregular bone defects, being able to closely adhere to the irregular bone defect site, solving the problem of insufficient matching between traditional bone scaffolds and irregular defect sites, and showing excellent mechanical stability and structural retention during the degradation process, having good supporting ability in the bone defect area, being able to regulate macrophage polarization into the M2 type, and promoting the recruitment, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs).
