Abstract
Description
An exosome-modified metal implant with immune regulation and bone induction functions, and its preparation method and application Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of new biomedical materials, and specifically relates to an exosome-modified metal implant with immune regulation and bone induction functions, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Extracellular vesicles (e.g., exosomes) are vesicles containing a phospholipid bilayer structure that can be secreted by almost all cell types. These vesicles can participate in pathological processes such as inflammation, autoimmune response, endothelial dysfunction / injury, procoagulant, angiogenesis, intimal hyperplasia, and osteoblastic differentiation, and play a vital role in cell therapy. Exosomes often carry a variety of functional groups such as cytokines, growth factors, signaling lipids, DNA, and regulatory miRNAs. Among them, exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in early osteoblastic differentiation (MSC-EVs) have shown positive effects in anti-inflammatory, cell adhesion, and osteoblastic differentiation, making them ideal regulators of bone integration. Compared with other stem cells, protein drugs, and synthetic chemicals, the natural multicomponents of MSC-EVs can induce complex and long-lasting cellular responses in a safe, low-cost, and efficient manner without being limited by immune and biological toxicity, which has obvious advantages for improving the surface bone integration of prostheses.
[0003] Prosthetic implants are one of the most successful therapeutic strategies for restoring bone and joint function. However, the immune response to prosthetic implants can hinder bone integration, compromising the effectiveness of osseointegration and leading to increased orthopedic implant failure rates. During prosthetic implant treatment, bone biological quality is maintained through bone remodeling. Bone metabolism and immune inflammatory responses are the primary factors influencing osteogenesis during this remodeling process. Bone metabolism is characterized by decreased bone formation and reduced circulating levels of biochemical markers of bone formation. Besides bone metabolism, a more significant factor influencing osteogenesis is the inflammatory immune response. Studies have shown that inflammatory cytokines released by immune cells can be detected in patients with prosthetic implants, with macrophages playing a key role. After implantation, exogenous biomaterials exacerbate the local immune response. Within hours of surgery, macrophages are recruited to the implant surface and trigger an early inflammatory cascade. Prolonged inflammatory exposure can lead to the formation of a surrounding annulus fibrosus, a key factor affecting prosthetic survival and creating a barrier to osseointegration. Furthermore, prolonged exposure to this inflammatory environment can impair MSC activity and osteogenic differentiation. At present, the integration between the prosthesis and the bone and bone remodeling are still severe challenges that affect clinical efficacy. There is an urgent need to develop effective strategies to promote bone remodeling around the prosthesis in patients.
[0004] Existing studies have shown that promoting bone formation through immune regulation can improve bone integration on the prosthetic surface. However, there is still room for exploration of flexible modification strategies based on cells, vesicles or macromolecular bioactive substances. In particular, the process of obtaining high-performance prostheses by modifying medical implants with biomass is seriously insufficient. It is urgent to develop novel and effective strategies for using MSC-EVs to modify the implant surface to improve bone integration on the prosthetic surface.

The exosome-modified medical implant is modified on the surface of a titanium-based material with mussel-derived adhesion polypeptides and click-chemistry modification of the azidated exosome surface to achieve the dual functions of immune regulation and bone induction.

[0010] In a specific embodiment, the present invention further provides a method for preparing an exosome-modified medical implant having dual functions of immune regulation and bone induction, the method comprising the following steps:
[0011] (1) Design and preparation of mussel-derived adhesion peptides: A solid-phase peptide synthesis method was used to synthesize mussel-derived peptides from the copper-free click chemistry reagent dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO), acetone, and Fmoc-protected levodopa amino acid Fmoc-DOPA (acetonide)-OH. The resulting mussel-derived peptide was designated as (DOPA) x ‐PEG5‐DBCO;
[0012] (2) Derivatization of the surface of medical implants with peptides: The medical implants were immersed in the (DOPA) obtained in step (1) using a solution immersion method. x -PEG5-DBCO solution, and the DOPA groups are fully adhered to the implant surface to obtain a DOPA-implant;
[0013] (3) Azide modification of exosome surface:
[0014] MSC-derived exosomes (EVs) were conjugated with the azide-coupled reagent 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-hydroethanolamine phosphate (DSPE-PEG 2k -Azido) mixture, exosomes EV combined with DSPE to obtain azidated exosomes, recorded as EV-DSPE-PEG 2k -Azido;
[0015] (4) Click chemistry modification of exosomes on the surface of medical implants: The DOPA-implant obtained in step (2) was immersed in the EV-DSPE-PEG obtained in step (3). 2k In the -Azido solution, the azide group and the DBCO group reacted via a cycloaddition bioorthogonal click chemistry reaction to achieve specific loading of exosomes, thereby obtaining EV-DOPA-modified exosome-modified medical implants with dual functions of immune regulation and bone induction.
[0016] In step (1), the structural formula of the mussel-derived polypeptide sequence is: Ac-[(DOPA)-G] x / 2 -K[(PEG5)‐(Mpa)‐(Mal‐DBCO)]‐[(DOPA)‐G] x / 2 , wherein x is the number of repeating units of DOPA amino acid, and x can be selected from 2, 4, 6 or 8.
[0017] In the specific structure, the mussel-derived polypeptide synthesized in step (1) contains spaced glycine (G) or lysine (K), and the levodopa amino acid (DOPA) is separated by a single glycine or lysine; and with the help of the side chain amino group of lysine (K), the clickable diphenylcyclooctyne group is connected through the bridging effect of short-chain polyethylene glycol (PEG5).
[0018] During the synthesis of the mussel-derived adhesion polypeptide in step (1), the dopa groups within a single molecule of the polypeptide are separated by a single glycine; the overall chain length of the mussel-derived polypeptide is 5, 9, 13 or 17 amino acid groups, and the connection mode is linear.
[0019] The present invention uses acetone as a protecting agent to protect the catechol group in levodopa amino acid (DOPA).
[0020] The medical implant described in step (2) can be made of titanium alloy material, preferably titanium sheet, titanium rod or titanium nail. x The concentration of the PEG5-DBCO solution is 0.005 mg / ml-1.000 mg / ml, and the sufficient soaking time is 12-36 hours.

[0023] Furthermore, the present invention also provides the use of the exosome-modified medical implant having the dual functions of immune regulation and bone induction as described above in the field of preparing artificial prosthetic implant materials.
[0024] Preferably, the exosome-modified medical implant is used in the field of preparing artificial prosthetic implant materials for diabetic patients.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0026] Inspired by marine mussels, this invention combines the metal-phenol coordination chemistry of mussel-like adhesion molecules with a bioorthogonal click chemistry modification strategy to design a mussel-derived adhesion polypeptide with catechol groups. Metal Ti implants are modified through a powerful catechol / titanium (Ti) coordination interaction and then linked to azide-modified exosomes to create exosome-modified medical implants with both immunomodulatory and osteoinductive properties. The exosomes are non-destructively modified onto the surface of medical metal implants, imparting both immunomodulatory and osteoinductive activity to the implants.
[0027] This invention modifies the surface of bone implants with exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that possess multiple bioactivities and are undergoing early osteogenic differentiation, through a mussel-mimicking adhesion mechanism and a bioorthogonal click reaction. This modulates the polarized phenotype of macrophages, modulating the immune-osteogenic cascade and thereby improving implant performance. It can alleviate inflammatory responses in hyperglycemic microenvironments, reducing the expression of inflammatory factors such as IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α; promote osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs in hyperglycemic microenvironments; and enhance periprosthetic bone integration, bone formation, and bone density in diabetic patients. The resulting exosome-modified medical implants exhibit excellent biocompatibility and promote macrophage polarization toward the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype, synergistically improving immune microenvironmental induction at the bone-implant interface and optimizing osteogenic performance and osseointegration. Compared to the complexity, potential toxicity, and destructiveness of traditional chemical modification, the mussel-mimicking adhesion and click modification strategy described in this invention offers a rapid, mild, and structurally stable preparation method for exosomes. This method provides a new approach for efficiently modifying the surfaces of medical metal implants with functionalized exosomes. This approach has a profound impact on improving the survival rate of diabetic patients undergoing implanted prostheses, and holds broad promise in the medical field.

[0091] The surface properties of implants obtained by the EV-DOPA coating modification strategy and implants modified by other methods were compared and verified. The EV-DOPA coating modified implants prepared in Example 3 and other comparative implants were respectively placed under a fluorescence microscope for observation. Among them, the Control group is a titanium sheet soaked in ordinary PBS, the EV group is a titanium sheet modified only with exosomes, and the DOPA group is a titanium sheet modified only with DOPA groups obtained in step (2) of Example 1. Figure 6 is a direct observation image of FITC fluorescence microscope; as can be seen from Figure 6, green dot-like fluorescence was observed on the surface of FITC-EV-DOPA titanium carrying FITC groups, while no fluorescence was observed in other groups. Figure 7 is an atomic force microscope (AFM) surface morphology detection image; as can be seen from Figure 7, compared with the titanium sheet soaked in ordinary PBS, the surface roughness of the DOPA group increased, the EV group had no obvious changes, and a large number of exosome spherical protrusions were observed in the EV-DOPA group. Figure 8 is an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) surface element composition detection diagram; it can be seen from Figure 8 that compared with the titanium sheet soaked in ordinary PBS, the "N" element content on the surface of the modified titanium-based material is significantly increased; Figure 9 is a water contact angle detection (WCA) diagram; it can be seen from Figure 9 that compared with the titanium sheet soaked in ordinary PBS, the water contact angle of the EV-DOPA group is significantly reduced, the hydrophilicity is better, and EV is effectively modified on the surface of the titanium alloy without destroying the overall structure of EV.
[0092] MSCs and RAW264.7 cells (homemade) were seeded on the titanium surfaces of each group. Figure 10 is a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image of MSCs and RAW264.7 cells; Figure 11 is an analysis of the average cell spreading area and a cell proliferation activity detection image; Figure 12 is a cell live-dead staining image (**p<0.01); As can be seen from Figures 10-12, the SEM images show that the cells in the EV-DOPA group spread more completely. No obvious dead cells were observed in the live-dead staining. The results of the cell proliferation detection showed that the cell proliferation activity in the EV-DOPA group was higher than that in the Control group. The above results show that EVs were successfully modified on the surface of the implant and had cell attachment and spreading properties, showing good biocompatibility.
[0093] Example 4: Characterization of EV-DOPA's in vitro osteogenic properties
[0094] (1) Antioxidative stress effect of EV-DOPA
[0095] 6-8 week old SD rats were purchased and anesthetized and killed to extract primary MSCs from the long bones. The cells were inoculated onto the control group (titanium sheet soaked in ordinary PBS), the EV group (titanium sheet modified only with exosomes), the DOPA group (titanium sheet modified only with DOPA groups obtained in step (2) of Example 1), and the EV-DOPA group (EV-DOPA-Ti), and osteogenic induction culture was performed in a high-sugar and inflammatory microenvironment simulating diabetic (DM) conditions. After 24 hours, the culture medium was aspirated and labeled using the Biyuntian Reactive Oxygen Detection Kit according to the instructions. The images were then collected using a fluorescence microscope and quantitatively analyzed by flow cytometry.
[0096] Figure 13 is a fluorescence image of reactive oxygen species detected by the direct osteogenesis effect of EV-DOPA; Figure 14 is a flow cytometry quantitative image of reactive oxygen species detected by the direct osteogenesis effect of EV-DOPA. It can be seen from Figures 13 and 14 that the results of reactive oxygen species fluorescence and flow cytometry detection show that under the DM microenvironment, more reactive oxygen species are produced in the Control group and the EV group, and compared with the Control group, the reactive oxygen species produced in the BMSCs of the EV-DOPA group are significantly reduced.
[0097] (2) ALP and ARS staining
[0098] Primary MSC cells were inoculated into the control group, EV group, DOPA group, and EV-DOPA group, respectively, and induced to differentiate into osteoblasts under the DM microenvironment. On the 7th day of induction, the culture medium was removed, washed with PBS, and then stained with an ALP alkaline phosphatase staining kit, and images were collected under an optical microscope. Positively stained cells appeared blue. On the 21st day of induction, the culture medium was removed, fixed, and stained with ARS alizarin red staining solution, and images were collected under an optical microscope. Figure 15 is a staining diagram of the direct osteogenic effect of EV-DOPA: In the figure, A is ALP staining; B is ARS staining; Figure 16 is an ALP activity detection diagram and ARS absorbance detection diagram of the direct osteogenic effect of EV-DOPA; As can be seen from Figures 15 and 16, positively stained calcium nodules appeared red, the ALP level in the control group was low, and compared with the control group, the oxidative stress level of MSC cells in the EV-DOPA group was significantly reduced, and the ALP positive staining area and ALP activity were significantly increased (***p<0.001). There was no obvious calcium nodule formation in the control group, while in comparison, the EV-DOPA group had significantly more calcium nodule-positive staining and higher absorbance values (***p<0.001).
[0099] (3) Osteogenic differentiation indicators
[0100] RT-qPCR was used to characterize osteogenic differentiation. Total RNA was extracted using TRIzol. mRNA concentration and purity were assessed using a NanoDrop-2000. PrimeScript RT Master Mix was used for reverse transcription. SYBR® 1 premix, ExTaq TM A total of 2 μl of cDNA product was used for subsequent RT-qPCR analysis. Gene expression analysis was performed using the CFX96 Touch Real-Time PCR Detection System.
[0101] Gene and protein analysis of osteogenic differentiation-related markers showed that EV-DOPA treatment promoted the expression of osteogenic genes (Alp, Runx2, Ocn, Col1a1, Sp7), as well as the protein expression of Runx2, an early marker of osteogenic differentiation, and OCN, a mid- to late-stage marker. RAW264.7 cells were then seeded onto titanium surfaces in different groups and cultured in a simulated DM microenvironment. Figure 17 shows the RT-qPCR analysis of osteogenic differentiation-related genes directly induced by EV-DOPA; Figure 18 shows the immunofluorescence staining results for Runx2 and OCN. As shown in Figures 17 and 18, RT-qPCR results showed that the EV-DOPA-treated group had lower expression of proinflammatory cytokines compared to the control group. In the DM microenvironment, the gene expression levels of Alp, Runx2, Ocn, Col1a1, and Sp7 were significantly increased in the EV-DOPA group compared to the control group (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001). Protein immunofluorescence staining revealed increased expression of Runx2 in the early stage and OCN in the mid- to late stage in the EV-DOPA group compared with the control group (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001). These results confirm that EV-DOPA treatment inhibits the differentiation of pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages and increases the number of anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages. EV-DOPA has direct antioxidant and osteogenic properties.

[0103] (1) Changes in macrophage polarization phenotype
[0104] Macrophage polarization was characterized by immunofluorescence staining. Figure 19 is a schematic diagram of the experiment on EV-DOPA regulating the phenotypic transformation of macrophage polarization. The specific operation is as follows: remove the cell culture medium, wash with PBS, add 4% paraformaldehyde fixative, and fix on ice for 15 minutes. Then wash with PBS three times, add Triton solution for 10 minutes, and wash with PBS. Add immunostaining blocking solution, block on ice for 1 hour, add primary antibody working solution, and incubate at 4°C for 12 hours. Recover the primary antibody, wash with PBS three times, add fluorescent secondary antibody working solution, and incubate at room temperature in the dark for 1 hour. After sealing with anti-fluorescence quenching sealing agent, collect images under a fluorescence confocal microscope.
[0105] Figure 20 is an immunofluorescence co-staining image of macrophage iNOS and F4 / 80; Figure 21 is an immunofluorescence co-staining image of macrophage Arg-1 and F4 / 80; Figure 22 is an analysis of the relative mean fluorescence intensity of immunofluorescence staining; As can be seen from Figures 20-22, the results of cell immunofluorescence staining show that under the DM microenvironment, the expression of iNOS in macrophages is relatively high, while the expression of Arg-1 is relatively low; compared with the Control group, the expression of iNOS in cells in the EV-DOPA group was reduced, while the expression of Arg-1 was increased. Figure 23 is a flow cytometric analysis of the macrophage M1 polarization phenotype CD86; Figure 24 is a flow cytometric analysis of the macrophage M2 polarization phenotype CD206; as can be seen from Figures 23 and 24, compared with the Control group, the proportion of CD11b / CD86-positive M1 macrophages in the EV-DOPA group was significantly decreased, while the proportion of CD11b / CD206-positive M2 macrophages was increased (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001).
[0106] (2) Inflammatory cytokines
[0107] RT-qPCR was used to test and characterize inflammatory cytokines, and the specific implementation was the same as step (3) in Example 4. Figure 25 is a RT-qPCR detection diagram of inflammatory cytokines; as shown in Figure 25, the RT-qPCR results show that under the DM microenvironment, compared with the Control group, the gene expression levels of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the EV-DOPA group were significantly reduced, while the anti-inflammatory IL-10 gene expression was increased (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001). Figure 26 is a high-throughput sequencing analysis of inflammatory factor expression; as shown in Figure 26, through the analysis of high-throughput sequencing results, EV-DOPA can significantly reduce the expression of most inflammatory-related factors under the DM microenvironment. The results confirmed that EV-DOPA can regulate the immune response mediated by macrophage polarization.
[0108] Example 6: EV-DOPA indirectly promotes osteoblast differentiation in vitro through immune regulation
[0109] (1) ALP and ARS staining
[0110] The ALP and ARS staining operation is the same as step (2) in Example 4. After the EV-DOPA-modified prosthesis is co-cultured with the conditioned medium prepared by macrophage culture, Figure 27 is a staining diagram under the immune conditions regulated by EV-DOPA: In the figure, A is ALP staining; B is ARS staining; Figure 28 is a detection diagram of the ALP positive staining area and ARS staining absorbance under the immune conditions regulated by EV-DOPA; As can be seen from Figures 27 and 28, CM Control The ALP level in the group was low; Control Compared with the CM group, EV-DOPA The ALP positive staining area and ALP activity in the group were significantly increased (*p<0.05). Control There was no obvious calcium nodule formation in the group, but in contrast, CM EV-DOPA The group had significantly more calcium nodules positive staining and higher absorbance values (**p<0.01).
[0111] (2) Osteogenic differentiation indicators
[0112] RT-qPCR test was used to characterize osteogenic differentiation, and the specific implementation was the same as step (3) in Example 4. Figure 29 is a graph of RT-qPCR detection of osteogenic differentiation-related genes under EV-DOPA regulated immune conditions; As can be seen from Figure 29, under the DM microenvironment, the DM microenvironment was significantly different from that of the CM microenvironment. Control Compared with the control group, the gene expression levels of Alp, Runx2, Ocn, and Col1a1 in the EV-DOPA group were significantly increased (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001). Figure 30 is an image of immunofluorescence staining of Runx2 and OCN, proteins related to osteogenic differentiation; as shown in Figure 30, protein immunofluorescence staining analysis showed that the expression of Alp, Runx2, Ocn, and Col1a1 in the EV-DOPA group was significantly increased compared with the control group (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001). Control Compared with the CM group, EV-DOPA The expression of Runx2 in the early stage and OCN protein in the middle and late stages increased in the control group (*p<0.05, **p<0.01). The results in this section confirm that EV-DOPA can promote osteogenic differentiation by regulating the immune response mediated by macrophage polarization.
[0113] Example 7: EV-DOPA promotes periprosthetic bone integration in DM rats
[0114] (1) Establishment of animal model
[0115] A streptozotocin (STZ; SigmaAldrich)-induced diabetes model was established. Five-week-old male SD rats weighing 100 g were adaptively fed for 1 week. STZ was added to a citric acid buffer solution with a pH of 4.2-4.5 at a concentration of 1% (w / v) to prepare an STZ solution. After fasting for 12 hours, the rats were injected with STZ at a dose of 35 mg / kg via intraperitoneal injection. Blood from the tail vein of the rats was obtained weekly to analyze the non-fasting blood glucose level (BGL). A BGL > 16.7 mM was confirmed as a successful modeling. A glucose tolerance test (GTT) was further performed to detect pancreatic islet function. The rats were fasted for 12 hours before the test. Blood was collected from the tail vein, and blood glucose was measured as the control value before intraperitoneal injection of glucose solution (1 g / kg). Blood glucose was measured 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after injection for comparison to observe the glucose tolerance level. The results showed that the diabetes model had been successfully established.
[0116] Titanium rod implantation was performed 3 weeks after STZ injection modeling. An incision was made in the midline of the rat knee joint to expose the distal femur. A hole was drilled in the center, and titanium rods (diameter: 1.5 mm, length: 10 mm) were implanted into the distal femur parallel to the longitudinal axis of the femur. Animals were divided into four groups based on the different methods of implant material modification: PBS-immersion group (Control), DOPA-modified group (DOPA), EV-simple immersion group (EV), and EV-DOPA-modified group (EV-DOPA).
[0117] During the modeling period, animals in each group were able to move freely within their cages, eat normally, and consume increased water and urine output, with no significant weight gain. There were no significant changes in mental state. Figure 31 shows blood glucose monitoring in DM rats: A. Fasting blood glucose testing at different ages; B. Glucose tolerance testing. As shown in Figure 31, one week after modeling, the rats' blood glucose levels increased significantly. Post-implantation surgery revealed no infection, swelling, exudation, or other inflammatory reactions in the incisions, and all wounds healed in their original form. No animals died during the experiment.
[0118] (2) Early changes in periprosthetic macrophage polarization
[0119] Immunohistofluorescence staining was used to observe the polarization of macrophages around the prosthesis. The specific procedures were as follows:
[0120] 1) Dewaxing and hydration
[0121] Before dewaxing, bake the sections in a 60°C thermostat for 30 minutes. Soak the sections in xylene for 10 minutes, then replace the xylene and soak for another 10 minutes; soak in anhydrous ethanol for 5 minutes; soak in 95% ethanol for 5 minutes; soak in 70% ethanol for 5 minutes;
[0122] 2) Antigen retrieval
[0123] Enzyme digestion method: 0.1% trypsin is commonly used. Trypsin is preheated to 37°C before use, and the slices are also preheated to 37°C. 0.2 ml of digestive solution is added to each slice to completely cover the tissue. Digest in a 37°C incubator for about 5 to 30 minutes, away from light.
[0124] 3) Immunohistofluorescence staining
[0125] Wash 2-3 times with PBS for 5 minutes each; add normal goat serum blocking solution and incubate at room temperature for 20 minutes. Shake off excess liquid; add 100 μl of Antibody I and incubate at 4°C overnight or at 37°C for 1 hour; wash 3 times with PBS for 5 minutes each; add 40-50 μl of Antibody II and incubate at room temperature or at 37°C for 1 hour; wash 3 times with PBS for 5 minutes each; add 20 μl of DAPI-containing anti-fluorescence quenching mounting medium, cover with a coverslip, and observe under a fluorescence microscope.
[0126] Figure 32 is an immunofluorescence co-staining image of CD86 and an analysis of the mean fluorescence intensity; Figure 33 is an immunofluorescence co-staining image of CD206 and an analysis of the mean fluorescence intensity; As can be seen from Figures 32-33, 2 weeks after implantation of the titanium rod prosthesis, the expression level of the M1 macrophage marker protein CD86 in the periprosthetic tissue of the PBS control group was higher, the number of CD68 / CD86 double-positive cells was higher, while the number of cells positive for CD86 / CD206 (M2 macrophages) was lower, and the expression of M2 macrophages was low. In contrast, the expression of CD86 in the EV-DOPA group was significantly reduced, the number of CD68 / CD86-positive M1 macrophages decreased significantly, and the number of CD86 / CD206-positive M2 macrophages increased (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001). These results confirm that functional modification of the EV-DOPA prosthesis surface can regulate the polarization phenotype of periprosthetic macrophages.
[0127] (3) Micro-CT detection
[0128] The mouse hind limbs were scanned and analyzed using the high-resolution micro-CT SkyScan1076 produced by SkyScan, Belgium. Before scanning, the specimens were removed from the fixative and dried. Each specimen was placed in a Micro-CT test tube cup, 5 at a time, and each specimen was separated by a foam plastic sheet; the specimens should be placed neatly to avoid touching the test tube wall. The scanning parameters were set as follows: voltage 50kV, current 800μA, scanning time 1750ms, spatial resolution 18μm. After the scan was completed, the SkyScan1176 built-in software was used to perform three-dimensional reconstruction of the mouse ankle joint. The following parameters were analyzed using CT Analyzer analysis software: bone density (BMD; mg / cm 3); bone volume fraction (BV / TV; %)); trabecular separation (Tb.Sp; μm) and trabecular number (Tb.N).
[0129] Micro-CT scanning of experimental rat bone tissue, followed by three-dimensional image reconstruction and quantitative analysis, provides a relatively accurate description of bone mass and bone microarchitecture, thereby determining changes in bone parameters and periprosthetic bone integration in rat models. Figure 34 shows three-dimensional reconstruction images of bone mass and bone volume fraction in healthy and DM rats before and after titanium rod implantation. Figure A shows before and after titanium rod implantation. As shown in Figure 34, compared to healthy rats, DM rats exhibit decreased long bone density and impaired periprosthetic bone integration after titanium rod implantation (#p<0.05, ##p<0.01). Bone 3D reconstruction and bone parameter analysis were performed on experimental tissues from different groups. Figure 35 shows a Micro-CT 3D bone reconstruction image demonstrating the effect of EV-DOPA on periprosthetic bone integration in DM rats. Figure 36 shows an analysis of bone volume fraction, bone density, and trabecular thickness, demonstrating the effect of EV-DOPA on periprosthetic bone integration in DM rats. Figures 35 and 36 show that the control group had lower periprosthetic bone mass, including lower bone density (BMD), bone volume fraction (BV / TV), and trabecular number (Tb.N). In the EV-DOPA group, periprosthetic bone density, bone volume fraction, and trabecular number were significantly increased compared to the control group (*p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001). These results confirm that EV-DOPA can effectively increase periprosthetic bone mass.
[0130] (4) Histomorphological staining
[0131] H&E hematoxylin-eosin staining and toluidine blue staining were used to observe tissue morphology. The specific steps of H&E hematoxylin-eosin staining are as follows:
[0132] 1) After the femoral tissue specimen is decalcified with EDTA decalcification solution, it is trimmed and embedded in paraffin. The paraffin-embedded specimen is sliced using a tissue slicer to produce paraffin sections with a thickness of 6 μm.
[0133] 2) After paraffin sections were dewaxed with xylene (10 min × 3 times), they were sequentially soaked in 100%, 95%, 90%, and 85% ethanol solutions, followed by water immersion for 5 min each. After rinsing with distilled water for 3 min, the sections were stained with hematoxylin solution for 5 min and rinsed with tap water for 5 min. The sections were then differentiated with 1% hydrochloric acid alcohol solution for 60 s and rinsed with tap water for 1 min. The sections were blued in 10% ammonia solution for 60 s and rinsed with tap water for 1 min. The sections were counterstained with 1% eosin solution for 3 min and rinsed with tap water for 1 min. The sections were then dehydrated with conventional gradient ethanol solutions and xylene, transparentized, and mounted with resin.
[0134] The toluidine blue staining method involves the following steps: After hard tissue sectioning, dilute the toluidine blue stain with water (determine the dilution based on the desired staining intensity based on experimental experience, starting with a 1:100 dilution). Briefly soak the slide in the diluted staining solution, then soak it in water several times, and then press and mount the slide according to the selected method.
[0135] Figure 37 is an H&E staining image of the effect of EV-DOPA on periprosthetic bone integration in DM rats; Figure 38 is a toluidine blue staining image; Figure 39 is an analysis of the annulus fibrosus thickness and bone-prosthesis contact ratio; As shown in Figures 37-39, 8 weeks after prosthesis implantation, tissue H&E staining results showed that both the Control and EV groups had a clear annulus fibrosus; compared with the Control group, the thickness of the periprosthetic annulus fibrosus in the EV-DOPA group was significantly reduced (***p<0.001). Toluidine blue staining results showed that the Control and EV groups had less periprosthetic bone growth. In contrast, the EV-DOPA group had significantly more periprosthetic bone growth, and the ratio of bone tissue to prosthetic surface contact area was significantly increased (***p<0.001). These results confirm that EV-DOPA inhibits the formation of the periprosthetic annulus fibrosus and promotes new bone formation and prosthetic surface bone integration.
[0136] (5) Osteogenesis marker detection
[0137] Calcein fluorescence staining was used to characterize the osteogenic properties of the material. Figure 40 shows calcein fluorescence images demonstrating the effect of EV-DOPA on periprosthetic bone formation in diabetic rats. As shown in Figure 40, the calcein fluorescence results show that in both the control and EV groups, the periprosthetic area of calcein fluorescence is small, with indistinct gaps, indicating poor bone formation. Compared with the control group, the periprosthetic area of the EV-DOPA group exhibited greater calcein fluorescence, with significantly wider gaps. Figure 41 shows immunofluorescence staining images of OCN and COL1A1 proteins. As shown in Figure 41, immunofluorescence staining for the osteogenic differentiation markers OCN and COL1A1 shows that the control group exhibited lower expression of these markers, while the EV-DOPA group showed significantly increased expression of both OCN and COL1A1. These results suggest that EV-DOPA functionalization can effectively promote periprosthetic bone formation in the diabetic microenvironment.
[0138] The data were analyzed using SPSS 11.0 statistical software. Data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation (x ± s). Multiple group comparisons were performed using one-way ANOVA. Pairwise comparisons were performed using LSD and Dunnett's t-tests, provided that the overall variances were equal. A p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
